[000:00:00;00] ah ah, china blames the west for escalating the ukraine conflict and say is washington is pursuing its own gear political agenda, undermining beijing plan ukrainian crisis has come to a critical juncture on when you need to choose either to stop hostilities, restoring peace or to fuel the fire and expand the crisis, letting the situation get out of control conflicts, all sanctions and pressure cannot solve the problem with the polish state run, the oil company wants to rush it, the whole thing, petroleum deliveries, both the more tenuously admitting that it wanted to break the contract with moscow itself,

but was afraid of fine. well the bank hope talks with too near the eye for its western bank presidents, racist remarks about african migrating from the country, local sound the lead, if always hateful speech, accusing him of abusing his power. today we are accused of being too numerous in their countries, yet they themselves knew that this would happen, that you need your residence permit is given to everyone, but there is disorder because people have no papers and there is an abuse of power . ah, that very well welcome to you. get to watching asi international with the late as well news out date. it's good to have your company this hour. now we begin with the latest from china to sessions event where beijing's foreign minister said he hopes the you will embrace strategic independence from the u. s. self to the end of the conflict in ukraine. i think that the west is currently escalating the conflict and

pursuing it for an agenda while undermining china's proposed piece plan. brooklyn ukrainian crisis has come to a critical juncture when you choose either to stop hostilities, restoring peace or to fuel the fire and expand the crisis, letting the situation get out of control conflicts, all sanctions and pressure cannot solve the problem. regrettably efforts for peace talks have been repeated, the undermined there seems to be an invisible hand pushing the pro traction. an escalation of the conflict using the ukraine crisis to serve a certain geo political agenda shed that young. while the u. s. fully support ukraine, china's foreign minister says washington, simultaneously disrespect chinese sovereignty tensions intensified last august. when then how speak and nancy pelosi ignored all warnings and paid an official visit to taiwan, sparking a sharp response from beijing and promising large scale military drills around the islands. the minister made a comparison, saying that on the one hand,

the u. s. respects the territorial integrity of ukraine, but on the other, it disregards the facts that taiwan is none deniable parts of china, stormy, or chandler. the chinese people have every right to ask why does the us talk about respecting sovereignty and territorial integrity on ukraine, while disrespecting, china's sovereignty and territorial integrity on the taiwan question window, why does the u. s asked china not to provide weapons to russia while keeps selling arms to taiwan in violation of the august 17th community. why does the u. s. keep on professing the maintenance of regional ties and stability while cowardly? formulating a plan for the destruction of taiwan? we minister in testified is for a tory opposing the interference by analysis for is, is on activities, relate your taiwan independence. and i, he reiterated that taiwan in china's 1st right line that united states must not cross. ah, it's a, he said that the resolution of that tie one issue is

a matter for the chinese people and no other country in this plant on this planet has the right to interfere. he also re eatery that china retains the option to take all necessary measures to achieve the so called gray unification with taiwan. ah, and he also blame the you as for the right intentions between washington and aging and said that if the u. s. does not change his path, there gonna be some conflict and confrontation may were that the of argent to the u . s. talks a lot about following rules. imagine to athletes competing in an olympic race. if one athlete instead of focusing on giving one's best, always tries to trick or even injure the other, that's not a fair competition, but malicious confrontation and a foul. when you get so called establishing guard, rails and not seeking conflict, simply means that china should not respond in words or actions when slandered or

attacked. that's just impossible. if the united states does not hit the breaks, but continues to go down the wrong path, no amounts of ga, rails could prevent derailing, and there will surely be conflict and confrontation. shingle says that he is very much against using competition to character, characterize the realm, relationship with the united states, and has attacked the so called 0 sum game narratives or the so called a cold war attitude. a he also added that the b gene would not remain silent if the u. s. slender or attack china, and that's the prime. china will not make america great again, or stop is rejuvenation, independent. china specialist andre long say that the u. s. is trying to provoke china and creat another ukraine like situation in taiwan. a lot of spaces full of the blue sandals. and the good haul, ah,

is i saying one thing but doing another apart from to recall. ready integrity of soul from t. r, for example, is the so called international order. and where it is seuss the united states. they won't. ready but if you lost these, with long term, would throw the order album window, for example, the late and iraq and afghanistan. and you know, even without the approval of the international community in the united nations. and then that they took, they've taken unilateral actions to impose the will and on all other concerns as far as taiwan is concerned. and i think the era charles realized that there was a risk and that the united states is trying to pro, booked charlotte into taking premature action and creating another ukraine situation over taiwan. so i think that the, and, and also internationally, more and more countries are a lot by the scholarly lack rule and kind of the who talk about the united states. so that all in a hand,

china will take whatever action is necessary when the time is right. keith has reportedly doubled down on his efforts to get american made cluster bombs, now asking for a variance capable of being used by a ukrainian drones. the western officials on media have remained all but silence on t s request wall loudly condemning russia for using the same munitions. these weapons rockets or missiles that deploy a large number of small explosives are banned by more than 100 countries. that's indicative of cluster munitions. there are a bunch of things that are exploding in the same time when cluster munitions are one of those things that have been a huge problem here in this war, we've seen videos of russian forces moving exceptionally lethal weapon tree into ukraine. which has no place on the battlefield, that includes cluster munitions and vacuum bombs, which are banned under the geneva convention. russia is not a party to the conventional cluster,

munitions international treaty that bands these weapons. but russia's cost permission attacks have been unlawful because they involve inherently indiscriminate weapons that cannot distinguish between combatants and civilians. ukraine's home made cluster bar code, the totes k u is constantly being used on civilian areas in west and russia. according to moscow officials, the western media and officials have widely turned a blind eye. here's one example of such a toxin which doesn't have done yet. citizens were killed. a warning, the following images may be disturbing for some vs. ah ah, with

krista on the on of olsa journalist on founder of dumbass inside essays of the western media choose as a ton, a blind eye to any narrative that doesn't serve that agenda. i self and there are such a shilling blood here it was. so we was the oregon and grad which were also clustered and which were shield on, on civilian areas, on the residential areas. and they knew that they were shooting into areas. was you create an army doing that. and i've seen no condemnation above that. and the id that the, the can provide such weapons to, to ukraine, the absolutely shameful, all the withdrawn media, they have guidelines to follow in terms of near 18 and the stick to it. so of course everything which is not fitting to this narrative. they put it aside and so the fact that the us are themselves producing and using these kind of forbidden

are all low for weapon the they should the mouth about that like the fact that for example, the us not destroyed it's all chemical weapons are snow on the contrary of russia, for example, which has destroyed everything. so the everything which is not convenient for the narrative, the official narrative, they just shut them up. moscow i have carried out yet another military prison, a soap deal. russia says its service men will under mortal danger while and captivity 90 ukrainian prisoners of war were exchanged for 90 russians, who were now being transported to moscow for medical evaluation and treatment. now the most similar swap were conducted between russia and ukraine with one of them mediated by the united arab. and the polar stake owned oil company is planning to sue russia over the whole of supplies by

a pipeline that transports oil to eastern europe. after president joe biden's visit the russians stopped pumping oil to poland. we will now take legal action and assert claims. let me get this straight. poland is up said that russia won't take poland money any more. poland has been going out of its way to act as ukraine's teacher's pack within the ear. going round publicly, bullying. it's fellow european allies for doing business with russia. just a few days ago, the polish defense minister said on state tv quote, there is no doubt it was germany's policy that help routine to get money, which he used to strengthen his army, nor extreme is an example. although we were called russ a phobic. we warned against it. we're talking billions that poland has sent to russia for energy as the german ambassador to the country has pointed out. now poland even promised to end all russian oil imports by the end of last year. so you think that they would welcome this development, but now the same c,

e o of poland state energy from orland is complaining that the evil russian oil has stopped flowing into poland, which was the largest importer of russian oil to the whole of e u. in january consisting of about 10 percent of its supply. and when confronted with that fact, the same c, e o's defense was basically that he just didn't know how to shut off the top. there were 2 contracts, one contract expired in january, the other expires in 2024. it is difficult to break a contract without sanctions. we would expose ourselves to large fines and that money would go to putin anyway. we would pay for the oil that we didn't even receive. so he said that he, the really, really liked to shut off that russian oil to poland. but that he couldn't do that without getting fined for breaking a business contract with russia. so it be better to just keep paying for the russian or well then to have to pay

a massive fine for stopping it. little buddy looks like your problems are all solved because it sounds like moscow is basically now stopped and he won't have to pay the fine. so, what's the problem? unless of course, he really didn't want to break poland, long term relationship with russian oil and was just telling everyone that they were only dating casually, you know, until something or someone better came along and offered some other supply. speaking of dating on the down, low german economy minister, robert havoc also said this week that berlin doesn't have a formal relationship with russian gas after someone mysteriously blew it up. along with the nord stream pipelines regime, cynthia momentum, we are not dependent on russian guest supplies. at the moment. mark side may be the true, the elegy terminals of neighboring countries with which gas quantities, comp, russian molecules or the gas mix it out to click,

and neither be controlled nor excluded. but german companies did not buy elegy gas from russian companies or russia. moreover, he makes a sound like rushing yas, his imposing itself on germany like some kind of a crazy acts like, well, we tried to get it off our line, but it just wouldn't leave us alone. so they're acting like it's not really their fault if they're still playing some kind of light foot see under the table with russian fuel, the american c. e o of chevron. mike worth recently pointed out that indeed europe is still getting russian fuel that it's just taking the long way around from russia going through unsanctioned countries. and obviously that's going to mean that it's more expensive and also introduces more potential risks in a much larger supply chain. which conveniently makes us natural gas a lot more attractive. so it's hardly surprises. for example,

that shell oils c e o is now saying that stability of the u. s. energy market makes it more attractive for the company's investments. then, for example, the u. k. or europe and european customers and industry are absolutely the ones bearing the brunt of all these added costs to buy energy and to, to re route it through half the world. now europe has been saying that it wants to ramp up it's military industrial production. but here in france, or even struggling to keep making baguettes, do the energy cost. so good luck with that guys. meanwhile, the blocks fearless leaders keep saying that they're strong and independent and don't need russian fuel, even as they keep importing it on the sly. that is, until, as we've just seen with poland, russian fuel dumps them thousands of take into the streets in protests against

pension reforms in france with riot police using tega against demonstrations. oh, for an union set, something fine. mounting on last tuesday, as parents came to a standstill with seal deliveries disrupted on schools, shut up at 250 more protests are expected around the country in the coming days. iran is looking forward to building technological relations with africa. well, that was emphasized as scientific and economic cooperation meeting between iran and west africa, african countries that kicked off into wrong on monday. in the past centuries, western countries have looted the wealth of these countries by exercising colonial rule. but the development of relations with africa for the islamic republic of iran is not for the wealth of this region, but for the development and welfare of all nations,

including african nations. you can get to know these developments and capabilities of iran through a personal visit and received the message that the determination and perseverance of a nation can turn all threats and sanctions and opportunities and bring that nation to progress the conference port together, the islamic republic and 15, west african states radian president abraham, raised the stress to wrong desire for why did cooperation nursing the importance of sharing experiences in the strategic space such as i t throughout the me think the participants exchange their views on prospect could developing bilateral relations it wrong cause for stronger ties with africa committee cannot make uncertain see in the nation, provoked by a new round of western sanctions. more details on this less course live to we can only expert to saw it much talk about i law he nominee, thanks for joining us on the program. it's good to see you. could you give us more details about the ongoing, some ethan and both on the agenda show. thank you for

inviting me to your program as the president that the 2 side iran and the african countries are looking for mutual prosperity. not there when lose condition. and he also mentioned the, i mean the power from economic part he mentioned the need to cooperate in the field of security issues. because we've had the book around in nigeria, which is one of the debt, the terrorist groups. and the last 10 or 20 decade and then also he mentioned truly the variety. i mean the director of services and products that the wrong had now offered to africa. and all parts of the world in the policy was just, it was

a basically out there was focused on engineering and moving down for our neighbors and developing the infrastructure, renovating that power plan, et cetera, et cetera. but now we have a strong has been nanotech in biotech, and it's a huge field and advise that we are doing our best to diversify our economy. and one thing for all i can say get rid of this dependency. and always we should been making close the problems for us in the last 40 decades of so

yeah, as we know, ron is carrying this heavy burden of sanctions and has been for a long time. what does the wrong have to offer africa in this respect? well, we've been following the idea of resistance economy in the last 20 years. so and why cheating the outcome we need to, as i said, we need to direct both our products as well as export the nation. so it takes us africa. there's a lot to do it in the west than a in case of development. i mean, the infrastructure, as i mentioned earlier, as well as the high tech,

and this surely include the their famous ai rich in which we are developing different them by the high, the companies together with all other countries. i mean, everyone is trying to make the best use of make the most active b a i the official intelligence and we had, we, we had the legacy of economic cooperation with the african country we manufacturing sites for called in then ago. and at one point

deal with so we need consistency, need diversity, and we need the ability now ties. i mean all for one of the, well, it does seem like a lot of countries a go there. i assess on africa right now when trying to boost relations, including china, of course, on the us when it comes to countries like the us. how do you expect with the nations to react to this cooperation between iran and africa? well, as you know, as everybody knows, we are on the the most and then the sanction. and we have been through this in the last 10 years over the last 10 years. unfortunately, we have had no economic growth. i mean the road and we, we do need to get out of this situation

and revive our economy. bring just the bill is the predictability. and yes, i mean the back to our markets, to our national currency and to people's everyday life. and as you know, they are using, i mean the united states then western power allied happy you, thanks. you know, the punishing tool. i mean maybe most hey, slow punishing till compared to other option to push batch countries like iran and russia. and you can find them. so i expect everything from the american to talk to him that our plan to expand hard. any

positive all, no matter in africa, caribbean region day, doing their best to maximize the effectiveness of things and. and at the same time we have we all seem to get some signs of a new ability to view. and so on this we have a good and last thing agreement with them. sanctions on the agenda, i mean top priority to pop on from making any progress. thanks for speaking to today. i really appreciate your time will be speaking through. we can all make expert 5 much a taba la. he thank you. not a 6 palestinians have been killed in 16 more wounded during an id f opperation in the occupied westbank city of janine, among the dead, allegedly as
