i'll call the police system a what i see these to you both. there's no rule you move. asian says, do you do both? ah, the headlines are naughty, international as rushing forward is that close? if it's around the city of all, tim, all the school bus commute examines the school to i think, don't boss, has retreating, ukrainian, destroyed critical infrastructure to hinder the russian above the head of a neo nazi group that claimed responsibility for a deadly attack and a russian border region admits the operation was coordinated with the ukrainian military. china say that refuses to be bullied by countries through and post that domestic laws on the nation with

very welcome. you're watching on the international with the latest world news. not date is great to have you with us this hour that we start with the latest developments in dumbass, where the lead to all the volcanic groups phase russian forces have essentially surrounded a keystroke called of ukrainian troops. and the don, yes, republic. oh, that's comes off to a number of advances by russian troops in the area. the volcanic groups leader claims that i'm not many professional ukrainian, so just left in the fight. ukrainian army has reportedly been destroying the critical infrastructure, several bridges on the dam to hinder the russian and supplement off the city of buck moot or ought to mosque. now the ukrainian military has also destroyed infrastructure and industrial science when withdrawing from other areas in dom bus . our correspondent egos donna went to see a factory that ukrainian troops destroyed in the la guns region. no conventional

weapon is capable of dealing, this amount of instantaneous damage for under ground floor was were hidden. he, underneath a 9 story building, it is truly hard to tell what this structure looked like before the departure of ukrainian soldiers. but locals, who had to co exist with cube troops, se, well, they did all this to literally bury their secrets. this once used to be a cold storage plant. key of troops reaped full benefits of its facilities. absolute safety provided by the underground levels made the facility into a perfect hospital for the wounded until it was time to leave little humble allison . well there were a lot of them here, mostly wound up to 200 people. and 160 people killed bought and then they ended up blowing all up on it. and there was even a soldier waterline for brian. well yeah, but he said 3 of my cameras wounded and blown out of there. but what as you walked away, still crying at it, but what can you do?

the blast wave wiped out the whole row of houses adjacent to the plant. local say, it felt like an earthquake. no, it was like a huge explosion for this whole side was covered in dust. then when we went out to see what happened, we saw everything was destroyed. sure there's a house opposite across the street going, deborah came through the roof and broiler, and the whole of is the same here. nothing. all this site is softer than those houses are destroyed. it is a nightmare. the ground is covered with rubble and green packaging from ukrainian and european army rations. but while soldiers enjoyed an abundance of food, ordinary citizens had to scavenge. that said, though, the situation with food was very bad. also, my daughter sent supplies through some one. the car then came and shared food with us beside that in general. but no one shared anything at all up here in a basement not far from the plant. we discover more traces of ukrainian troops who

were once stationed here, ammo, crates potentially left or pro key of sleeper cells and outdated military maps, neighbor with propaganda literature. and here in the basement right next to children's books like this one, learning to write with dosher in russian. by the way, there's an encyclopedia on ukraine's new nazi battalions. and of course here on the front cover, they're called volunteer groups. and the notorious as of battalion, well, it sits here modestly in the top right corner, which does put things into perspective. every single emblem here belongs to a separate group to a separate battalion. and as of like, new nazi battalion, there were truly glorified in ukraine since 2014. they literally had books written about them. i'm a good done of reporting from the dumbass r t. west in mainstream media outlets are waking up to the reality on the grounds following thursdays, cross border laid by a group of neo nazis from ukraine. he'll kill 2 people in russia is brianna

screeching as c n n anchor has now admitted that there's truth to moscow starts on the complex the russian volunteer corps a lead by figure it well known to him and those who follow the transnational far right. dennis christian, now the anti defamation league says dennis compulsion as a russian, the nazi who lived in germany for many years has trained young members of the far right national democratic party of germany and others. he also ties to the as always in the, as a brigade, which is the ukrainian extremist fall right group as well. so when putting next goes public aid says the attack was carried out by neo nazis. there is an element of truth of that statement. on thursday morning, a group of commandos from ukraine cross the border into russia is pretty ask region on bush, several civilians killing 2 people and wounding a child. moscow called it a terrorist attack, a warning for you. some of the following images are graphic and you might find them distressing. so teach released by russian investigators shows one of the victims.

there was guns down at close range rice inside his car. moscow say the ukrainian a talk is used west and supplied weapons according to russian officials. the sabbath says were pushed back across the border into ukraine. and then bon bonded with hillary. legal and media analyst line on faith. it's surprising to finally see the western media agreeing with moscow. this is amazing to me. i have been hearing about this and we have been hearing of others terms of as of a dire right sector, neo nazi since the beginning. but here in or in the west, it, it, it fell on deaf ears. nobody acknowledged it. it was a conspiracy theory. now, all of us, i think they're saying maybe there's something to which after everybody has been told, you're crazy. we've been gas lighted. you're making this up, you know, you're, you're a potent apologist. you're some kind of a lunatic. then all of a sudden, as though nothing happened, they ring the bell. everybody says,

you know what, maybe there is something to that. what changed? what was the piece of evidence that changed everybody's sense of awareness? it's fascinating. the sabbath earth go on was led by dentist nikita in a russian national, who turned on his own country and now fights for ukraine. he's a notorious neo nazi with radical connections across europe. and has been living in key f since 2017 and an entity following thursday's deadly attack nikita admitted that the operation was coordinated with the ukrainian military. yes, of course, this action was agreed. otherwise, it couldn't have happened. how do you imagine that i passed through the dark of night there the remind bridges, the cameras heat seeking drones. there were hidden open observation points. if i did not coordinate it with any one in ukraine's military, i think we would simply be destroyed. or despite the admission from the kate and he has maintained, it had nothing to do with the deadly rate. the ukrainian presidential adviser has

even accused russia, using the incident as a provocation to escalate the conflicts a form, a u. s. air force. lieutenant colonel told us that western powers don't seem to mind supporting extremist groups in ukraine. it is a little bit surprising, particularly as he is. he is a neo nazi and a well known neo nazi throughout the west. and he's listed on the anti defamation league as an american group that monitors hey groups. he's listed there for exactly what he is. so i was surprised that it's an organization like the financial times was even interviewing him. they used to be very sensitive about that. i guess now they're not, it is surprising that they kept it in there particularly since that's one of the weaknesses that zalinski has in the west. and he is supported by a's of he supported by neo nazis in ukraine and elsewhere. that's an area that we don't like to explore and maybe i guess we don't care anymore. maybe the west is. it doesn't really matter. it's, it's kind of a sign of not just desperation in the war,

but desperation also in the media. they don't. western media has very few sources. and this guy, the keaton, you know, he says, hey, i'll tell you what i saw with or grabbing it straws will take anybody. what we delve deep into the evolving western narrative on ukraine in the latest episode of direct impacts with rick sanchez. this time he speaks with political analyst to andrew teresa time to break down the current state of the international conflict. and you can watch the full interview on our website, r t dot com has a previous i think that now after the ministry, media and meeting officials have started to decisively shift the official narrative from one of whether it was already meant to mislead or it was just a miscalculation of eminent victory to novel. hey, we're kind of in a for the long term. what kind of, you know, i think people are now feeling a little bit dower about that because they're wondering where is the return on investment and how much more we still going to have to throw in. there are also

seeing the fact that there's an opportunity cost to think there is a wider awareness of the opportunity cost. these are the china. i'd be very interested in seeing how american perceived this question. what do you mean? what, what do you mean by opportunity cost with china? because by using the term opportunity cause we, what is the u. s. giving up all the power that has been blown up and the forthcoming ones that are going to be sent to ukraine. they could otherwise be sent us the asia pacific l i for more muscular li containing china. and i spoke enough to can all of the but i never was acknowledge that it is one of the leading determinist of us strategy, especially white of so called balloon incidence. now that there is kind of a syria about china because the things flew across mainland mainland united states and so got shuttle guy. i'd be very interested in seeing how the populations perception tours does. there are some choices containing russia or china because

the us can contain on both the same time, the same extent. a major annual event in chinese politics is taking off the so called 2 sections by the chinese parliament sunday. political advisory body are expected to introduce a raft of reforms on the government appointments apartments re spokesperson has praised china's efforts for developments around the world, particularly to help african nations lower the debt burden to foreign power. hi dan, carrying out belton road cooperation. china never attaches any political strings, nor seeks any selfish political gains. according to the world bank, china is not the largest creditor of africa. nearly 3 quarters of africa's external debt is owed to multilateral financial institutions and commercial creditors. in other words, they account for the bulk of africa, all debt china has been working hard to help africa, ease its debt burden. fragile china has taken an active part in the debt service

suspension initiative under the g. 20 mass spokes person also slammed the western establishment rhetoric about china supposedly being a threat to them. as a quote, cold war mentality. he said that mutual cooperation is the common interest of china and western powers. putting wounds that china will not allow any infringement upon its sovereignty or territorial integrity. specific figures for china's defense budget are expected to be announced during the current policy making event in beijing. we heard from c g, t and correspondent junction yang, who says the focus of the events will be new economic policies and a range of newly appointed officials to session is one of the most or is think the most important political event in china. and what makes this year's event so special or different is that is the 1st year after china. optimize is coven restriction? so no wonder, all eyes are all disadvantage. see how china is going to re boost is to economic

vitality. how, what kind of a g t g d p targeted the country going to set? will it be a more conservative one, or will be an ambitious one? and how is trying to go into those goals? and more crucially, the n p c this year will actually vote on the kinds of leadership lineup. we are expected to see the new top officials include being a premier, vice premier in other economic international leadership roles, including market regulators and we're not totally during the wrap up the 2 sessions . there will be the new, previous 1st time hosting hundreds of journalists local for immediate journalist. and that will be the 1st chance for me to ask questions directly to the new premier . and the appointment of all of these top officials will actually give a good, very good indication of where the country's policies in development tragic true,

will go in the coming years. ecuador has filed a lawsuit against japanese electronics company for carla, accusing it of in humane working conditions, comparing them to modern day slavery locals in ecuador, have welcome to the case, but the government has long turned a blind eye to the unacceptable situation. i think it's really good that ecuador is doing the slow suit because those children are being exploited. they're being abused. it seems like a federal mistake that they are not working to protect their rights above all. good killers, i think there should not be any exportation of a child or any other human being whether we're talking about children and adolescents who are working and not being treated well. because i believe that there should be a call for attention to this issue where the authority should be involved in this. i find it very distressing that this is happening now. culture. i think those

children are being abused. it's horrible. they are people who should have human rights. it seems to me that they are not defending the rights of those children. who are you employed by those companies that are doing that or should worth august? course they should. if that is with the institution to protect children and adolescents or therefore, but it seems that the ignoring news calls, i think, gosh, or missile workers at the, for a cower plans have reported a lack of electricity and drinking water issues with the lights and sanitation. and working days, exceeding 10 hours to name a few who are also been allegations of physical abuse by hundreds of its workers, including cases of human trafficking and the utilization of child labor. however, these claims are nothing new as they've been coming in for years with the acquittal was government largely choosing to ignore the complaints. over the last 5 years, the through cow has been in the hot sea many times as the ecuadorian ombudsman has

said. such conditions are typical enough facility in 2018. he noted, quote, sub human housing conditions, child and adolescent labor, and an opposite absence of workers' rights. and such claims have been echoed over and over in the almost 6 decades of the company's history. let's find out more now . let's discuss this with our guests in cross lab to ecuador based political analysts were among mendez with as many thanks for joining on. a program is good to see you. now as the situation of through cow has been deteriorating for years, why didn't that government choose to step analia? well, the ecuadorian government since the return to democracy in the early eighties has been ruled by parties that did not care for the population that i did not care for people to state. has he turned a blind eye to the situation, which is not the only one, but for science the, the most common it nationally and internationally as well. this case has been

brought up on several occasions in the last couple of years. we have to know as well that 70 percent of the population that was being exploited is acres of land in this for our company. our descendants are ecuadorian who are black and this also has a racial, i mean as to why the state didn't do the work or the population in general. they didn't seem to care about these as well as we have to think about who, who they are. many of them don't have any type of ideas and type of identification . they don't know their rights about 90 percent of them. don't have any schooling, don't know how to read or write. so we have to understand that these are people who have been marginalized for years. there are various generations of people who have been dis, conditions. that is, when one of the reasons everything moves politically in ecuador, and this case is right now are being brought up precisely because of the political

situation. and if anything is trying to extract from bigger fish to fry, if you will, regarding some of the cases legal cases going on in echo right now, as well as we know legal actions defending the rights of temptation works in the states have been going on for years already without often, without any results at all. what is different about 3rd cower and what do you expect or do you expect anything tangible to come from it? well, some tangible stuff has come out of it. there was a resolution a couple of years ago where about 100 of these former employees are given economic . well, the judge said that should be given economic reparations, as well as psychological help and aid regarding also their last lives being able to have access to health in such things provided well by the company. regarding this now they have opened up again, the case like i mentioned, to have open it up because of a political situation. they have made it so that now it's convenient for the state

attorney of ecuador to bring this case back up. what is different about for carla in particular is that is a massive company and not so much about the company itself, but of equity with this particular part of america, which is the 2nd most country, the country with the 2nd most cultivation of this, of this plant behind the philippines, so in ecuador, they have recognized that there is no law regarding this people. there is the law, of course, they don't apply it. they have identified that teen environment to continue exploitation any, even if judges and lawyers say that rule that this has to change. they can also bribe and pay people to just not do anything right. this case has been going on for a couple of years actively now, even so that the very 1st person who started this case, the very 1st player is now against the rest of the place, right? so there is a lot of bribery, there's a lot of coercion,

we're more than the company itself. it is the fault of the state of apple door that has not made it comply with any of its rules that are applied in the past. many thanks for joining us on the program. really appreciate your insight as the master will be speaking to political analyst monument, as with thank you to south africa now, which responded to the us warning from last month, cautioning americans in the african country and those traveling that you still caught on at least 3 days worth of food, water and medicine is coming to die energy crisis in south africa leading to mass outages. the nation's international relations minister says washington is simply overreacting. rather surprising. and i don't recall such a large issue in california had some black culture and outages to to south africa. honda to run a warning, but there's been many of the surprise warnings i was warned about has come to

fruition. now these, that african government has responded to the alarming a late issued by the united states government to its citizens. living in the country, the advisory told citizens to stockpile food and medical supplies. the alert was a response to the national state of disaster recently declared by the president porter during his state of the nation address. now, the embassy took this opportunity to remind its citizens about the travel advisory label to warning it has in places with africa. which urges them to exercise increased caution due to crime and civil and race. and now report suggests that the united states security alert was issued without warning or in new consultation with south africa. that pushing analysts to say that this reveals the level of issues washington currently has with the continent,

arguing that whatever fits of africa also affects the entire region is the country we must do scale. when a criminal leg, the united states begin to issue such warning. because the united states is known for finding the united states is known for finding the absolute united states on their board for quite a number of a lot of african countries. so that's the guys why not those countries that these baby in the low quality and the native state, one to be in the politics of south up the belie lation ship that i have with china in raj. how many believe that this is all part

of the brewing tension between the united states and africa? let's keep in mind that to be by an administration has only a warrant for that because again, helping russia evade sanctions. and the u is, has a range of penalties at its disposal from rolling back to a to funding trade privileges to imposing sanctions back so far that africa has been very apologetic about it's dawn now on a lighter note and they resort for a former top guy from you down that has turned plastic waste into in victoria into an eco friendly floating piece of power dive has become a bit of a hit among tourists. among may, the island is made up of a staggering 10 tongues of plastic bottles and can hold about a 100 people. but that's not all underneath the raft lies and intricate, amazing shrubs and fig tree roots, which provide fish in the lake with a perfect place to meet and lay the eggs late. victoria has had

a long running problem with pollution stemming from industrialization run off waste . on the decline in water levels in part to, to climate change is create a james katina has to, does he why he decided to create away what inspired me was they, they made to offer something in terms of environmental, you know, responsibility. and if i say that loves a nature, is that based on who should be on this? but anyone that wants to have fresh air from, you know, you, you, you don't, you, you come here to distress to is up on your trace and, you know, just sitting there to look at. birds used to look at the monitor leaves and sometimes in the lake among goes what a birds,

plants and butterflies you know, many, many things to see as well as fishermen, you know, playing the trade on the lake. well, we had the chance to talk to some of the visitors to the vessel had told us they found the raft rather relaxing. whenever i come here and see the lake and how the place is cool, i find a place to meditate in. just a nice experience and of hard to say much, but all i know is that it's a quiet place. usually plastic is always something small that we can touch, always see it and car parts or whatever. but we don't build buildings out of plastic. and now sitting on an i'll of plastic, actually i would have thought it feels more like sitting on a night of dressing, but i don't see any plastic around here. so it's, it's, it's confusing and great at the same time your mind has to really think of new ideas. and i find that coming in this place. it really gives me that piece to think of great ideas. the rise of african nations

as part of a shifting world order has gained a lot of attention in the media as we are poor points out that many developing nations have been defiance of western pressure to cut times with russia and made the ukraine conflicts also contribute to rachel mazda in ways in the western process, started to come to terms with the idea that the ukraine conflict is sparking a new multi polar world order that doesn't have washington at the center of it. diversity is supposed to be a good thing, right? events in ukraine and the resulting western sanctions have accelerated, the emergence of an eastern or south eastern offer, with alternative systems and structures. there is always even greater freedom of choice for the average person in the world. but here's how one prominent western publication has just portrayed. it is putin winning. it asks the world order is changing in his favor. it says if people around the world are increasingly

rejecting the idea of being stuffed into a made in washington political and economic strait jacket, it's because of some kind of cunning manipulation by putin and not because of a unforced error on the part of the west and the fact that people would just prefer to give the western clown show a pass these days. the west cool coalition may remain solid, but it's failed to win over many of the countries that refuse to pick sides moscow's diplomatic mission to build ties and how to narrative over the past decade has paid dividends. look at africa in march last year, 25 african states out of 50 full, abstained or didn't vote in a un motion condemning the invasion despite huge pressure from western powers. that refusal to side clearly would ukraine was testament to russia's ongoing diplomatic efforts in the developing world. or, you know, maybe they made a decision to place their own sovereign interests over being dragged into a washington lead circus a world away. as it turns out,

not even americans are keen on american unilateralism with only 17 per cent supporting the idea. according to a recent morning consul poll, meaning that they don't want uncle sam at the wheel of the regime change mobiles without adult supervision. and, well, good luck finding that in his entourage. maybe it has something to do with the fact that they don't like washington's recent track record with foreign meddling. as a new gallup poll from this month, underscores mont road americans remained rather negative about the united states, into national, standing, with more dissatisfied than satisfied with the u. s. position in the world. the majority of the living world lead us do not respect preston biden. and the public evenly split on whether the international community abused the u. s. positively or negatively. so far, the price of maintaining the old world order that placed washington squarely at its center hasn't even turned out to be a very good deal for westerners. u. s. president joe biden has said that americans will have to pay high prices for energy for quote,

as long as it takes to stick it to russia in ukraine, french president emanuel michael, also invoke the need to fight to maintain a certain code post world war 2 world order during his press conference at the conclusion of the g 7 summit in germany last june. when he said that the russian ukraine conflict upsets the principles of international rules that were established in the wake of the 2nd world war. also last june, when european commission president ursula vander line, visited new zealand prime minister jacinta ardor. both leaders issued a joint statement that quote, reaffirmed new zealand and the european union strong commitment to multilateralism and the rules based international order. but apparently fewer people are buying what these leaders are selling with their rules based order. and even the western process seems to be slowly coming around to that reality. now fled way. putin is quite deliberately cultivating this alliance of nations who feel victims of western imperialism. and putting russia at his head, the west wants to see russia as

a colony. he said in september, they don't want to equal cooperation. they want to rob us. if it's such an easy sell this western lead world order, maybe it's because the skids were already heavily graced with resentment in places like latin america and asia, which are exactly strangers. c u. s. back regime change efforts. more people around the world are starting to question the benefit for the average person of us led military interventions sold under the guise of spreading freedom and democracy. western leaders are doubling down in ukraine to save the world order that protects their own selfish interest. first and foremost, thinking that it's the way to prevent a parallel option from emerging the challenges their power and in all their stellar competence. they're on the verge of accomplishing precisely the opposite. pro multi polarity century want widely expressed to the recent g. 20 summit with india's prime minister quoting on global powers to.
