ah, with the headline off either national as vladimir putin says, the west is attempting to diminish rupture strength by using terrorists and former soviet republics. the target the country, despite, as he said, moscow's attempt to maintain the washington would rather destroy ty, one's semiconductor industry than let it fall into china's pat. if indeed, beijing would who attack the island? that is the message from a former u. s. national security adviser. the federal reserve must decide whether to continue raising interest rates to save the pipes, or tackle a tackle inflation as prices rise for consumers. all of this,

according to the u. s. lade, with a maximum speed of 1000 kilometers per hour. it's categorized as a stop sign gen suitable to be operated by kid. it just passed chance simulator training. iran launches it's 1st domestically produced. a military trading jet old, basically in defiance of western sanctions, which are aimed at strangling that country's defense industry with stoker to have you with us this hours program live from moscow. your top stories are lined up and ready to go. so the west is attempting to diminish rushers, strength using terrorists and former soviet republics to strike the nation. and that's the message from the russian president vladimir putin visiting the nations eastern city of all our new day. dennis, of course,

all the problems began after the collapse of the soviet union. it seemed to me and the people of my generation that the u. s. s or collapse is a pity, but nevertheless the basis for a confrontation between the u. s. s. or, and the new russia and the west disappeared, everything seemed to be fine, but it turned out not to be so it turned out that the geopolitical interests of our partners turned out to be much more important. and pressure immediately began to shake russia. they began to create a 5th column inside, sent hordes of international terrorist to strike us and worked along our borders. the president worth visiting this had a cop to plant in the city of illinois dare. and he was asked questions about both ukraine and the economy. now, on the economy, he said the russians defied western expectations. they, of course, were expecting g d p to fall dramatically, but it didn't. and the sanctions have in fact inoculated russia's economy against this external pressure are unemployed. but here is historically low, he said,

but he said that the western companies that left russia after february 24th, also thought the economy would collapse. but this has now been picked up by internal act as they've been helped by the russian state. now they've replaced many of those companies. they've either bought their assets and m. yeah, they've kept the economic infrastructure in life. but this was thanks to help from the central bank investment from the central bank and the government. and he was also talking about the situation that we're facing at the moment. and he said that russia has really tried to improve relations with ukraine since the collapse of the u. s. as all, but that all changed off the 2014 a euro might, and coo, and for 8 years. russia has been trying to solve and resolve the situation in doth don bos peacefully. but the west, of course, has not been interested and has scuppered all of those attempts to resolve the matter. tiff delilah to junior the city lead for decades,

we have been patiently trying to establish relations with the ukrainian state. but after 2014, the physical extermination of all those who advocated the development of normal relations with russia began. we have been trying for 8 years to persuade our so called partners to peacefully solve the problem in the dom bus. now it turns out that they just let us by the nose publicly, not embarrassed to talk about us or chateau me, said ross, his main focus. and with was those ethnic russians, the russian speakers were within that particular part of ukraine. but those that you have be massacred and, and exterminated. and he said that while russia is a multinational country, it cannot abandon. and it could not abandon those russian speakers and had a duty to protect them. but he said that while the wes interventions, as we, as he said, is geopolitical for russia. it's a matter of life and death. and he described as

a struggle for the survival of the russian federation or now to the front lines of the conflict in ukraine, where russia's wagner group is or portly, taking control over the northern part of the industrial zone of a csm that's in the city of our cha mosque, also known as black mood. unverified footage circulating on line apparently confirms russian controller with a voss stock mash plant. that's why zalinski actually commended ukrainian soldiers for defending that city back in december. now the at on plot is one of the city's main strongholds, is it provides the area with an intricate web of underground mines used in all sorts of defensive operations. now kias forces are reported to have lost the vast majority of their experience fighters, thousands of soldiers killed. oh would you can read more about this at archie dot com. but for now, here on the program, fox news tucker calls and the presenter from folks news. he's grilled several

popular presidential g o. p figures about this staunch on the ukranian conflict and washington's role in it. let's learn more across live right now to our correspondence. danny, by in new york. there's caleb. muffin. ok. live quite an interrogation from tucker calls, and i mean, can you, can you bring us up some of some of the han bull questions, some of the highlights. and how did these presidential hopefuls react? sure. well, we've got tucker carlson, the popular tv housed in the united states, and he's asking about what is a vital issue for republicans. the majority of republicans think the united states should stop aiding ukraine in the conflict with russia. so he decided to ask a series of questions to republican presidential candidates about where they stand . now, the 1st question he asked was about whether or not aiding ukraine was a vital and national interests of the united states. here's the response he got while the u. s. has many vital national interests become and further entangled in

it's her toil dispute between ukraine and russia is not one of them. no, it's not vital. rather, this is a stark reminder of what is a vital american national strategic interest. national energy independence, president biden's, blank check, foreign policy and ukraine has drawn nothing but ridicule and disdain from our adversary's and has diverted funding from essential needs in the united states. throwing money. ukraine with no accountability or objective is clearly failing. now the vac, rolla swami, who is a potential presidential candidate in the united states with indian roots, had some other interesting things to say about the issue. here's more of his response to tucker carlson's questions. china wants to ukraine war to last as long as possible to deplete western military capacity before invading taiwan. it's working. we think we appear stronger by helping ukraine, but we actually become weaker visit the china. i believe in america 1st 2 point. oh

. and we should at least get the europeans to europe 1st 1.0. we actively undermine this very objective by offering a bottomless pit of aid to ukraine. now among the candidates who spoke in favor of continuing to escalate and send weapons to the regime and kyo a mike pence was the most outspoken mike panza seems to have been a long time advocate of regime change and neo con operations i. he was certainly in favor of continuing to escalate the confrontation. here's what he said. unfortunately, the biden administration slow walked aid to ukraine. every response has been too slow from providing intelligence to ukraine, to hammering russia with sanctions to providing military equipment and fighter jets to ukraine. this is not america's war, but if putin is not stopped, he will continue to move toward our nato allies and america would then be called upon to send our own. now he seems to be

a bit confused when it comes to geography. he seems to somehow believe that russia is marching closer to nate, so not the other way around. quite, quite a confusing answer there from mike pants. now the next question tucker carlson, asked was about the issue of regime change in russia, and of course it was donald trump gave the most humorous answer to that question. no, we should support regime change in the united states. that's far more important. the biden administration are the ones who got us into this mess. now it is fair to point out the by the administration is responsible for the escalation that has taken place while trump's answer was somewhat humorous. it does point to the reality that most republicans blame the biden administration for the debacle and ukraine for miss managing it for getting things to this point. and donald trump simply maintains that he were present at things would have not gotten to the point

there at currently. now the next question that was asked was, regarding the sanctions and their impact on the russian economy. here's some of the responses. no, they have not been effective. just the opposite. clearly not russia is stronger because of higher oil and gas revenue owing to higher prices. the boyden said ministrations, policies have driven russia into a de facto aligns with china. russia has increased its foreign revenues while china benefits from cheaper for you biden has further empowered russia's energy dominated economy sanctions against china. iran in russia have bolstered the russian group will, and enabled china to establish trade and chinese money rather than in us dollars. now it appears based on those responses that republicans are able to soberly assess the results of the sanctions. unlike the european union,

which is planning apparently a new package of sanctions to impose on russia. now that was the responses that tucker carlson got from potential republican presidential candidates regarding their position on the ukraine conflict. and it's quite important to be aware of where these issues stand. now it's important to note that john bolton, the former national security adviser, and nikki haley, the former un ambassador, they did not respond. they did not give an answer to the questions. however, among those who did respond, it was only like pants suit put forward a there a solid position in favor of continuing to send weapons to key ab and continuing to escalate the conflict with russia and the majority opinion among american republicans is that the united states should not continue to escalate the situation should not be sending more aid and weapons to the government in here. so it makes sense that you would see republicans who are also critical of this as they seek the

nomination of their party for the presidency. and auntie correspondent caleb ma financial now slot from new york for it's nearly quarter past 12. thank you. well, washington is essentially adding fuel to chinese tensions over taiwan. get this a, a former us national security advisor, adding that america may destroy ty, ones, electronic chip industry. if china invades they got control of those gmc factories and research facilities. and they'd be the opec of silicon ships and control world economy. now let's face it, that's never going to happen. i mean, the united states, since allies are never going to let those factories fall into chinese hands, even if there was successful, evasion of time on. well, as taiwan reduces the greatest share of electronic chips in the world, a similar message began circulating in america a few years ago. 2021 us army war college paper argue that taiwan should try to

sabotage the plans themselves in response to an invasion. in order to well deter bay jane, and i put up the issue a bit earlier in the program with a nelson wong is valid by club expert and vice chairman of the shanghai center for impact, strategic and international studies. he says the u. s. is undermining the one china policy is actually trying to benefit from the controversy they are using this to. ringback you know, as, as a means to large this technology war against china because yes, tie one is the leader in the, the production of chips. the convert to by the former security advisor of the white house does mean a lot. and it shows really, this is a sinister contingency plan, not the u. s, but the excuse they use was quite worrying. they call it in case of a chinese invasion of high watt. and this is totally out of place because i was

part of china. this is a very warrior, some tendency, if the world is going to develop towards that direction. this is very bad news or of us. ah, china says the orcus alliance or the quote, well part of era and danger, australia plans to buy multiple nuclear power submarines from america. beijing has slammed if a destabilizing the region. also raising concerns the deal jeopardizes nuclear nonproliferation agreements. may you all top of that? so you can actually email me the latest joint statement from the u. s. u k. n. a trailer. demonstrate that the 3 countries for the sake of their own sale, political interests, completely disregard the concerns of the international communities and our will can further and further down the path of error and danger. well, the us president,

u. k prime minister and australia prime minister, they announced plans to develop a new generation of submarines that will be built in the u. k. and australia that with u. s. technology and support. the new subs fueled by weapons grade, highly enriched uranium, and could enter service in the late 2013 or even early 2014 as well. you'll straightly and foreign minister that was asserted, the vessels will not be nuclear, so they won't violate the countries and c, proliferation commitments about size. the u. s. has actually praised the controversial new deal calling it quote, a prospect of peace. stand that the inflection point in history, where the hard work of enhancing deterrence and promoting stability is going to affect the prospect a piece for decades to come. the united states can ask for no better partners in the pacific where so much of our shared future will be read. so in a nutshell, office is a security packet between australia, the u. k, and the u. s. which the countries say stabilize is the indo pacific region

international china specialist, andrew long, he says, the august nuclear sub deal actually undermines piece in the region. hello miss locke, peaceful as far as the united states office is concerned with lee, because it is a nuclear propelled a nuclear on summer reeds. it's likely to send a signal to other countries to do the same. and obviously as the transform ministry statements, it is going to erode the kind of loan deal critical corporation deal. and then it was also send signals to other countries to nuclear armed themselves. and it would break the whole group of effort to the nuclear lies. obviously the small peaceful apiece initiative because it is a marines, even though not nuclear armed it is a nuclear power using both military purposes. these are submarines. these are not

motion ships. so obviously the use of nuclear power. all of propel systems for military means. of course it is a violation of the nonproliferation treaty because the next step is that you can use nuclear energy, all sorts of things for military purposes. but once the city of love now resembling a city of trash, well, that's how many parisians feel as piles of rubbish, have taken over the streets as a result of the capitals. ongoing sanitation workers strike. can you imagine more than 5000 tons of trash remain uncollected? and is raising health concerns as rats, so running rampant country wide protests began back in january when the french president proposed retirement reform is raising the minimum age under toughening requirements for a full pension. and the bill, despite its enormous lack of popularity,

actually passed the french senate on saturday. so more protests are expected. the defense ministry of iran has launched its 1st domestically built training jet. it's called gas and so long with a fully functioning production line alongside of the country has a long tried to procure foreign jet trainers, but essentially western sanctions have prevented it from purchasing all the necessary equipment. also contributed use of july was invited to the inauguration ceremony and shows his report. this is the 1st jazz trainer designed and developed in iran dob ya seen. the light attack jet was built jointly by the ministry of defense aviation industry organization. and these walmack republic of arrows, air force in tandem with local industry defense minister brigadier general mohammed resort us gianni, said the production of the aircraft is a major achievement that has come despite western sanctions with a maximum speed of 1000 kilometers per hour. it's categorized as a stop sign gent,

suitable to be operated by cadets of just past chance simulator training. for more advanced training, he won't, has already built the co sour fighter jet, which is a supersonic aircraft with a maximum speed of 1700 kilometers per hour. they all seen aircraft features 2 iranian made. turbo jet engines dumped out, delivering a combined total frost of around $7000.00 pounds. the use of indigenous engines has pierced. you want the need to go through the process of importing foreign edges that are all both banned by the western imposed sanctions. the training jet can fly for up to one and a half hours without refueling or the service ceiling of 12 kilometers. it's ideally suited to improve the flying skills of new pilots at high altitudes, while the jet is primarily designed for training purposes. it's developer say it has light attack features as well,

making it capable of carrying an array of close air support solutions, such as gone rocket pots, and formerly known as co, sour, 88. they are seen jet trainer made it's made in flight in 2019, at an air base in the city of hammered on the decision to build it came after arms embargoes blocked. he was ability to purchase foreign, may training jets, prompting the country to try to develop its own with the western sanctions. turning this crew on, he wants military sector, that one has been trying to indigenous is strategic in this rate. perhaps the missile program is the epitome otherwise, military ambition. but in recent years, the country has stepped into other services as well, from you ease, to fire jets, and now jet trainers. use of generally r t t. ron will, iran's government has granted amnesty, meantime to more than $22000.00 of its citizens, detained or involved during last year as protests over the death of massa. amani,

this is a shortly after she was in police custody china so far as per statistics reported to me, $22628.00 people related to the riots, including both those who had already been sentenced to prison. and those who have yet to be sentenced have been pardons. based on the supreme lead us announcement, the iranian officials declined to clarify exactly what the suspects were actually charged with while they were behind by a mass rallies and riots played up across iran last september. following the death of a young woman who had been detained by the country's morality, felice. this week's amnesty, which also really 60000 other convicts, was ordered ahead of the persian new year and ramadan. iranian political analyst aside, mohammed miranda, he says the many riots were instigated as far as he says, might foreign own media outlets. most of these people were influenced by a huge propaganda campaign by persian media base in western countries version media

owned by western countries and the saudis, and they were advocating violence. and in the persian media were calling for violence. in fact, i tweeted some of the clips where they were saying that it's legitimate and in fact the moral thing to do to kill police officers to burn them alive. and obviously off tom has no problem with burning police officers alive in iran, but they've shut down all iranian and russian media for, for a because of nothing, not, not for neither for advocating violence, nor even reporting extreme violence. they simply shut them down because they say they are propaganda. but in the case of persian media, they're allowed to advocate murder. so a lot of young people were influenced by this online and media campaign. and after they were arrested, the leader decided that they should all be released. so very few people are that

in prison, only those who are accused of murder or something of that nature. the u. s. the labor department has published a report on tuesday showing a 6 percent inflation rate in february of 2023, a moody's faster service as part of the big 3 rating services has now cut outlet on the entire us banking system to negative as the country's economy shaken by current financial turmoil, it all comes off. the 2 major banks fails over the weekend. and now the federal reserve, which oversees the banking system and the economy in general, has to make a choice either raise interest rates even further or tackle inflation by reducing prices for consumers. and richard wolfe, a professor emeritus of the university of massachusetts says the u. s. economy is in a vicious cycle, going from one crisis to another. the federal reserve that its next meeting would

raise interest rates by another half percent. and yes, it is correct. that with this blow to the american economy, it is now the consensus opinion that they will neither raise nor lower interest rates at their next meeting. but let me explain to you. if it's not clear, the united states crashed its economy in 2020, not the pandemic. our class system broke down. as it does every 47 years. then we had an inflation. then we had an interest rate, right. we have been very, very herky jerky in our economic policy because we're literally going from one crisis to another. if you don't raise interest rates, then the inflation who is reduction was intended by doing that will now not be

reduced. in fact, the federal reserve has said it is giving limitless cash. that's a quotation, limitless cash to any bank that needs or wants it to protect its depositors. well, if you give limited cash, you do so at the risk of an inflation. but if you already have an inflation, then you have the bizarre spectacle that what is being done by the fed to contain the banking crisis will actually worse and the inflation prices. and this kind of den situation is increasingly the reality of the american economic system. or president biden did try to reassure americans that money was safe on monday morning with a former white house press secretary, john saki shining in that it's difficult by him to do anything in the morning. because, well, he's a bit of a nice now it's important to know,

president biden does nothing at 9 am. he has a night owl. so the fact that he is doing this at 9 am anyway, speaks to how vital the white house recognize that it is for him to have his voice out there. conveying that to the american public le biden's address to a com. the market seemed to have little effect, basically not only in america, but also across the pond. monday european stocks fell as the self and bank stokes, which began on thursday continued. we're talking record lows of the dive comes to find used at hsbc, had agreed to buy the british on all the silicon valley bank. asian markets also seeing volatility and economists though from india, says that all major economies are intertwined, and every one should prepare to mitigate the risks. today wanting is that if you all the global economy that connected global connectivity is at the highest level. so if a big economy like u. s, which is the biggest economy in the would if such an issue because we have to

accept that whether it's yadda on asia or india, every economy would be impacted up to some extent. now vehicle seeped off to what extent are that economies would be better if you'd talk about india? yes. did has been some impact because india is gone for stops. we have many stops and we are famous for stock of give us many a hot stock up to have been quite successful and the are being respected. float the way i think shock absorption systems, artist reduction are. things has to be much more to flight by closely us. den, all other economies, ah, by the dev, connected much or lesser, who will, a years ago now to georgia, where i demonstrate is in tbilisi, have burned a european union flag right in front of the nation's parliament, calling for georgia's independence from the west. a tuesday, thousands of people to, to the streets, protesting against

e. u and western influence on georgia, in stark contrast to protest last week against the proposed new foreign agent law, where demonstrators could be seen supporting the very same flags demonstrate as are also now calling for a referendum to be held on the foreign agent law. undermining the organizes of last week protests to be arrested. protesters are claim to stand for the independence of georgia as well as traditional family values. one conservative movement party leader says that people in the streets see that much as a means of self defense. the main goal today was just to preventative meeting for the purpose of self defense. the national movement in the groups fighting ukraine who have now arrived and represent defenders of pro western forces . i'm the national movement or threat, and have begun to mobilize people to stage a demonstration of force and attack our office. this is why we had a clear and firm position in relation to radical pro western actions which took place last week. the discipline of the international movement of russo files have

gathered here in moscow. essentially they determined to resist a western campaign of a phobia. so supporters from 40 different countries have gathered right here in the city to encourage more friendly ties with russia and present the nation animal, positive light. and one of the events attendees, a professor of the correct school of diplomacy. so as it is important to disseminate the truth, the mid, the western medias, mainstream narratives. so dillard wind, tedious, it's all about the interests, especially for the lease in the west, in the u. s. a. nato. and therefore they distort everything that contradicts these interests. and this has been happening for a long time. now, nato and the us have organized a war. back in the ninety's, i wrote articles where i stated that a war was being prepared against russia. all cultured people who love the truth should know how it was prepared because russians and ukrainians have always had

brotherly relations before. and that's why we have to spread this knowledge because people who read western media that distorts everything. how will they know the truth? and that is wrapping up his ours liberal cost from moscow and auntie international from the rural re sushi and the anti and news team here. thank you very much for sharing a time with us. my colleague, nicky aaron here at the desk in half an hour's time. i do hope you can join her that ah ah ah .
