the tendency, of course, to deal with the fact that the radical sedation of the state is funding to do that of an island. that is the size of the continent, me the terrorist attack is no longer a secret. moreover, it was a terrorist act committed at a state level because no amateurs and commit an attack like an old stream pipeline foaming with a state the terrorist attack, while the western version of events is normal. so that's according to an acute is russian. find the jessa bringing down a us attack, thrown that was allegedly carrying out the valence over the black p. washington with robert destroy high ones that conduct to industries and let it fall into china's hands. it's facing a taxi island. that's the message from

a former us national security advisor. also this out with a maximum speed of 1000 kilometers per hour. it's categorized as a sub sonic judge suitable to be operated by to that of joseph simulator training. iran launches in domestically produced a military training, jetting defiance of western sanctions. traveling the country assistance industry, lose a very welcoming turns 9 p. i'm here in moscow. misses off the international with the very latest. we'll need something good to have you with us. and we start out with breaking news on our tv terrorist attack, which struck the nord stream pipelines was committed at the state level as the message when russian president vladimir putin. let's take a listen now which is very difficult for us to conduct our own investigation. if we're not even allowed to access the side of this terrorist attack,

the fact that this is a terrorist attack is no longer a secret. moreover, it was a terrorist act committed at a state level because no amateurs could commit an attack like this. we did for me to, for about a month ago, up to the hearse and instigation. there was a media campaign with articles that you in, in several newspapers allegedly stage. and some ukranian activists had organized tech. and it was especially emphasized that these activities had nothing to do with the ukrainian government. how do you feel about these versions? we need and i'm sure that this is complete nonsense. an explosion of this kind at such a depth could only be carried out by a specialist supported by all the power of the state, which has the required technology. but let's get some more details on this. now let's cost life to also contribute to rachel miles and joining us from paris, rachel, good to see this evening out from work from the russian president. that what else? it's not to me, putin say. and what do we know so far about this mystery behind the new stream explosions?

well right now russia is trying to get the united nations to launch an independent inquiry into the north stream, sabotaged because the only inquiries they're happening right now are the equivalent of suspects to a crime. having their friends say that they'll look into it and then let everyone else know what happened and the west just seems to think that that's fine and that they can investigate themselves. and in the meantime, float this narrative all across the mainstream. western media, citing unnamed intelligence officials in each country like the u. s. in germany, for example, who are all conveniently blaming the whole thing on some co pro ukrainian group with no identity beyond that, but which magically absolves absolutely all actual countries and states from any and all responsibility were supposed to believe that some random dude came up with a bright idea to get together 5 other random dudes to load massive amounts of explosives onto a boat at a port in germany. sale out into nato waters and blow the steel pipes and their

concrete encasement. 20 days after their excursion, remotely investigative journalist seymour hersh, who attributed the attack to a u. s. leg special operation in conjunction with norway, isn't buying it through. tried to divert attention from the story that i wrote, which included enormous specifics. i was describing a process that began before christmas of 2021 in evolve the the, the national security advisor, jim sullivan, of the white house of the, for the president. they had a series of meetings at a secret room in the white house. and you have to admit is kind of curious that meanwhile there's a total lack of outrage here in europe from the establishment. their silence is deafening. considering that the north st network is a joint project with major european energy companies and russia's gas problem to secure europe's energy needs. sweden, denmark, and germany, 3 countries near the attack. and that should have had some information about it. are engaging with russian authorities trying to figure out what happened. so

obviously some neutral authority needs to intervene here like the un. but the west certainly doesn't seem interested in demanding answers on any of this was speaking . if you went to day, there was a meeting of the un security counseling. so could you tell us what the topic of discussion was? sure tuesdays iraq un security council meeting was supposed to be about rest of phobia in ukraine. the kind of discrimination that rest phones in the country have long suffered as moscow's un ambassador has explained lulu to lose to school as little as a result of the anti constitutional crew. in 2014 ukraine finally turned into an to russia. risk phobia was elevated to the status of a state policy in the country. the new ukranian nationalist authorities immediately carried out a brutal attack on the russian language and all things russian. the idea was

planted that everything russian is aliens. the ukrainian government was ready to kill and burn, which was clearly demonstrated when more than 40 russian speaking activists were burned alive in odessa room. ok, so you might have thought that moscow would have had to proven its case of russ a phobia at the un security council meeting. but they didn't really have to, because instead of addressing the issue at all, quickly descended into a russia bashing and put in bashing session with washington's friends and allies, defending ukraine's right to determine how it wants to run, run things in its country, in the interests of its own sovereignty, and if that means discriminating against minority groups like russians currently, that's now totally cool and totally normal. it's a surreal that hearing about russ a phobia at the you and actually veered into roster phobia in pretty short order. now, china tried stepping in and playing hall monitor dupont compass sheets you, you're welcome. china has been emphasizing the dialogue and negotiations are the

only feasible way to resolve the crises. the international community should stay on the right course of promote and be stokes support in russia and ukraine, resume and dial of as soon as possible. without any preconditions, relax, and d escalate the situation and held the policies of the conflict. open doors to a political settlement. oh. all right, seeking here there an effort on the part of china to rise above all the mudslinging dialogue is certainly more constructive. but right now the you and more closely resembles a schoolyard. right? so many thanks their state as their sanity contributed rachel monson. thank you. when you another developing new story, this are from the black sea. when american military drone has reportedly been brought down by russian fighter jazz. let's get more details now from a correspondent joining me in the studio studio pease, steve sweeney. thanks for coming. and joining us in the studio this evening, steve,

now, what exactly do we know about this reported incident at the moment or so far? what we know is that the u. s. is accused russia of downing, a drone over the black sea, and what it described as an unsafe, an unprofessional manner by 2 russian find 2 jets now. one of the russian jets, they say, struck the propeller of the m q 9. so the operators then did the drone into the sea that's according to the us european command. now, they say that the russian jet was heading towards crimea when the incident occurred president by didn't, has been informed of the incident on tuesday morning. what have we heard from officials about the instant so far? what we've heard from the u. s. air force, which issued in the statement a statement so accusing the russian a cost of acting, and what they said was a reckless, environmentally unfounded, unprofessional manner, and accusing the russians of a lack of competence. now, in a statement, it said that the m q 9 aircraft drone was conducting what it said was routine operations in international airspace when it was intercepted by russian aircraft

resulting in a crash and complete loss of the m q 9 drone. that's what they've said in that latest statement. what can you tell us about this american and q 9, reaper drones? well, the reaper drones sometimes known as the predator b, which will give you some kind of insight into what they are. they are hunter killer, unmanned aerial vehicles, and they're designed for long endurance, high altitude surveillance, but they've also been described as the most dangerous military drone on earth. they controlled remote, being able to carry heavy payloads, which obviously makes them a lot more a lot more deadly. now, national security council spokesman john kirby has spoken and he said that it's not uncommon for rushing that cough to intercept us cross over the black sea. and oversee that has this has happened many times he said since the conflict and ukraine, but on that been on the other intercepts in recent weeks. but he's described the

latest incident as unique in how unsafe unprofessional, and reckless the russian actions were. now, the russian military has yet to comment, we're waiting for updates from them and we'll brig you as soon as we have them. thanks very much. we appreciate that. that thought, is it steve sweeney with the latest details on that story. thank you. ok now to the ukraine can say to i, 2 people have sustained injuries after a car bombing that occurred outside of the apartment block in the city of mila, topple and rushes. zappa dozier region. emergency services are already on the scene with both victims have been being transferred to hospital. the blast was reportedly carried out using an improvised explosive device and according to reports, the explosive device was equivalent one kilogram of t and t and not to the front lines of the crank conflict where rushes, the volcanic re pass report to be taken control over the northern parts of the

industrial zone of zone in the city of awesome school. so no spark news and verified fatigue, speculating on line, apparently concerns russian control over the both stock marsh plants where president landscape commanded ukrainians. so just the defending the city. back in december, the is on plant is one of the city's main strongholds is it provides the area with an intricate web of underground mines useful and defensive operations. he has reported to have lost the vast majority of their experience. fine as of thousands of soldiers have been killed or wounded, leaving inexperienced draw fee to take their place. you can learn more about this story on the website. for neither is tucker carlson has grilled several popular presidential j. p figures about less dance on the ukrainian conflict on washington future roll. it is in general, the answers were fascinating. some of them were so thoughtful and so smart,

they give you hope for the republican party. with only a few exceptions these, their answers bore no resemblance at all to the statement you see every day for mitch mcconnell and various republican committee chairman in the congress. republicans in washington tend to be committed, neocons and the hillary clinton mold. but republicans running for president this cycle generally are not at all. that was a surprise, a refreshing surprise. we had no idea. we didn't know what to think. popular tv house, tucker carlson decides reach out to potential republican candidates for president. those who announced in those who may announce that have not yet announced and asked them about their position on the continued us support for ukraine in opposition to russia. first question, he asked was regarding the issue of the united states and whether or not it had a strategic interest in aiding ukraine against russia. this is the responses that he received. while the u. s. has many vital national interests become and further entangled in

a territorial 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 in ukraine has drawn nothing but ridicule and disdain from our adversaries, 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, rama 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 is 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 a weapon to the regime and mike pence was the most outspoken mike pence seems to have been a long time advocate regime change and neo con operations. 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 in fighter jets to ukraine. this is not america's war, but if prudent is not stopped, he will continue to move toward our nato allies and america would then be called upon to send our own. the next question tucker carlson, asked was about the issue of regime change in russia and of. busy course it was,

donald trump gave the most humorous answer to that question. we know 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. somewhat humor, if it does point to the reality that most republicans blame the biden administration for the debacle and ukraine. now the next question that was asked was, regarding the sanctions and their impact on the russian economy, your some of the responses? no, they have not been effective. just the opposite. the biden administration's policies have driven, rushing to the factor alliance with china. russia has increased its foreign revenues while china benefits from cheaper fuel biden has further empowered brushes, energy dominated economy sanctions against china. iran in russia have bolstered the russian rouble and enabled china to establish trade and chinese money rather than

in us dollars. among those who did respond, it was only mike pants to put forward a there a solid position in favor of continuing to send weapons to keep continuing to escalate to 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. the us labor department has published a report on tuesday, reporting inflation in february has risen to 6 percent moody, the investors service as part of the big 3 racing services as cut outlook on the anti us banking system to negative. as the country of economy is shaken by financial turmoil, without no comes off, the 2 major banks have failed over the weekends. now the federal reserve, which of these, the banking system on the economy in general, has to make

a choice either to raise interest rates, even. 6 further or tackle inflation by reducing prices for consumers. where should wolf, a professor emeritus at the university of massachusetts, say the us 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 get clear, the united states crashed its economy in 2020, not the pandemic. our class 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 worsen the inflation prices. and this kind of den situation is increasingly the reality of the american economic system

president by then to try to reassure americans that money was safe on monday morning with from the white house press secretary gen sante. claiming and timing in that is difficult for binding to do anything in the morning, but he did because it was important. now it's important to know the president biden does nothing at 9 am. he is 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 president biden's address to con, the market seemed to have had little effects not only within the west, but also across the pond. on monday, europe in stock fell as they fell off in bank stalks, which begun them thursday continued with stalks falling to year. record lows with dive comes to spot news that hsbc had agreed to buy the british arm of silicon valley bank asian markets. it was the same volatility, i can hama economist on that. it's a very sharp, the actual business news less

a belief the us dollar will lose all of it's worth over the coming months. the u. s . is basically bankrupt and what they are facing is they have an over $200.00 trillion dollar derivative problem with interest rate. meaning that the banks have guaranteed to the local people, but with the interest rates should raise. right? but the banks would cover the rest of it, but they con, the us dollar is a private money system. so the fed is either bailing out back. com or it bangs, who the, the dollar or the federal reserve belongs to, or they are acting in behalf of the dollar holder. but this will be very clear now that they're acting in behalf of their bodies and not in behalf of the dollar holder. meaning that the chinese and all the other entities outside the us who are still holding dollars are holding worthless stuff because they are willing to and

the dollar purchasing power. and this is what we will see the next coming weeks and months. washington is adding fuel to chinese tensions over taiwan with a former us national security adviser, i think that america may destroy taiwanese electronic chip industry if china events 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 that, 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 time. one produces the greatest share of electronic chips in the world. a similar message began circulating in the us a few years ago in 2021 a us army war college paper argued that taiwan should threaten to sabotage the planks themselves in response to an invasion. in order to deter beijing from

attacking. when nelson won the valid i club experts and vice chairman of the shanghai center for win pack, strategic, and international studies, say the u. s. is undermining the one china policy that's trying to benefit from the controversy they are using this to you know, as, as a means to launch this technology war against china. because yes, taiwan is the leader in the, the production of chips, the convent to by the former security adviser of the white house does mean a lot. and it shows really, this is a sinister contingency plan of the us. 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 wild of china. this is a very warri, some tendency,

if the world is going to develop towards that direction. this is very bad news or of us. meanwhile, the authorities of taiwan, which international law considers to be part of china, of code on the you to sign a bilateral investment deal. i think that the issue is on top of a said gender. and if it's persuade you to find the agreement, the self proclaimed ty, when he's government is also hinted that the deal could lead to an increased semiconductor investment. but the e u has told taiwan to forget about the plan, the thing it will be, get a formal deal with the island in order not to disrupt relations with china. big vice president of the center for china and globalization safe. washington is imposing its on p, china sentiment on the european union. all european countries, including all the eel members as well as all those european members of nato, recognized and a non acknowledge $1.00 fee which is universal. that is,

there is one, china, and taiwan is part of china. every european country which has to promote relations with china has given legal recognition of this principle. it seems that the united states is overly over you and quite a few other european countries. this is very sad, this does not reflect a well on some other european countries to start with. it does not reflect a well on e, u as a whole. so it is time for your pay union to wake up to be the real european union, rather than becoming a running dog of the united states. ah, and to please he demonstrated burned a european union flag in front of the nations parliament, calling for george's independence from the west. in stark contrast to protest last week against a proposed new foreign agent law where demonstrators were st. sporting the very same flags. now being burnt demonstrates is also calling for

a referendum to be held on the foreign agent know and demanding the organizes of last week's protests be arrested. the protest this came to stand up for the independence of georgia as well. if traditional family values a conservative movement party leaders saying that people in the streets see the march as a means of self defense. in 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 under national movement or threats, and have begun to mobilize people to stage a demonstration of force and attack our office. this is why we had a clear on firm position in relation to radical pro western actions which took place last week. a wrong defense ministry has launched his 1st semester. we build training jets along with a fully functioning production line. the country has long tried to procure foreign jets, but western functions prevented from purchasing the necessary equipment i think

contributes the use of july, early reports from the integration ceremony and to rome. this is the 1st jazz trainer, designed and developed in iran, dogged ya seen. the light attack jet was built jointly by the ministry of defense aviation industry organization. and these walmack republic of heroes air force in tandem with local industry defense minister brigadier general mohammed result. osh 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 one 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 around $7000.00 pounds. the use of indigenous engines has

parents want, they need to go through the process of importing foreign engines that are all what's banned by the western imposed sanctions. the training jet can fly for up to one and a half hours without refueling, with a sort of a 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 cos, our 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 him, argos 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, one has been trying to indigenous the strategic industry. perhaps the missile program is the epitome of, it was military ambition, but in recent years, the country has stepped into other services as well, from you, a piece to final drugs, and now jet trainers, use of job audi r t t, ron ones, the city of love not resembles a city of trash. how many parisians fail as pals of rubbish have taken over the streets as a result of the capitals on going sanitation workers strike? well, in $5000.00 tons of trash remain uncollected and it's raising health concerns as rats running round pence. countrywide process began in january, when french president mcclung proposed retirement reforms, raising the minimum age on toughening requirements for a full pension bill, despite its lack of popularity passed the french senate on saturday. more protests are expected. many thanks me,

a company here in nazi international will be back at the top of the hour with ah mm mm mm. and welcome to worlds apart. the americans have many itself gratifying metaphors. why they and only they are supposed to be at the top of the international pecking order. there was living

democracy, shining city on a heal and benevolent have gentlemen all to support the idea in the final analysis . they have an inborn prerogative to know and decide what's best for the rest, and as order and peace preserving as this positioning wishes to appear. isn't it bound to lead to conflict? well, to discuss that i'm now joined from canada by victor takia, who teaches concord de university of edmonton bixler. it's great to talk to thank you very much for your time. thank you for the invitation. x on a pleasure to be in this program. make sure you have a very interesting take on the current tensions between russia and the west, which ultimately comes down to the sides. deep seated perception of themselves and the nature of reality, which you summarize as the u. s. is insistence on being the 1st among equals and rushes claim on being an equal among 1st.
