oh, what does this cover? wow. she my and new other. oh, site in san mall. 07 won't get into the year, you'll not a put them out. thank you, bye. ah, breaking news this our our t credit suisse shows dropped 28 percent to a historic low trading of several european bank stocks is halted amidst reading financial crisis. the key city of chalmers or bach, moved this further and circled amid russian advances in the dom bus. with the russian wagner group releasing footage from inside the area stronghold the as on plant facility with a deep web underground for hostages. also i had a ropes outside the form of pocky study, prime ministers residence as the police attempt to arrest the former leader on the

legit corruption charges with watching our t international monies. peter scott on wherever you joining us from. welcome to 30 minutes of news analysis. and we start this out with some breaking news because credit suisse shares have dropped her historic lows on wednesday, falling 28 percent on the swiss stock exchange trading of several company stocks, including credit suisse, were temporarily halted on wednesday morning, due to steep losses of the fall has caused a y to banking, sell off falling, following the sexes modest recovery on tuesday. the main shareholder of credit suisse group from saudi arabia has rolled out any further financial assistance for the trouble bank. the answer is absolutely not for many reasons. outside the simplest reason which is regulatory and statuary. we now own 9.8 percent of the

bank. if we go above 10 percent, all kinds of new rules kick in. whether it be by our regulator or the european regulator or this was on this, i'm joined live in the studio now by r t contribute to chris and chris, thanks very much for joining us in the studio. such short notice. no worries. thanks. you know, can we see what's happening now in europe is sort of a ripple effect from what happened in the u. s. over the weekend. yeah, i think we can definitely draw drawer a parallel so that, i mean, we saw the silicon valley bank, you know, collapse over night seemingly. there was a lot of analysts saying that would be a knock on effect. how if i don't think we could predict just how much mean credit suisse switzerland, this is world renowned as being sort of the, the bank neutral territory of the world. but what a lot of people don't know p 2 than 2012. this is the government really tore up that sheets, and this is, this is the country the even, you know, in the 2nd world war bank for the nazis, they really bank for everyone. they told a sheet sheets up and they said we will report everything to the u. s. and we'll stop following us fiscal policy. now we're seeing what happens when you do that.

saudi arabia, which is the largest shareholder of the bank, the saudi national bank, actually is who we just had the, the chair of that organization said no way. we're not going to build that out. now . it big question, why they doing that? and i think the reason they're doing that is because we really entering in this multi potable that we talk about in the program without a like look, we've got more options now we've just signed a piece agreement with iran. were working close closely with our allies in raw 7 china, that the u. s. have slowly but surely started divorce from their own financial system. and now i think with the repercussions of that happen today. no. can you draw any parallels between what's happening today and then the financial crisis of 2008 for the reasons different. yeah, that's a really good question. so yet there is a very slight parallel in the fact that we're seeing a regulate the coat with his pants down again, excuse the language. 2008 was caused by a sort of a very different fiscal policy, which is bank faxing, more or less like casino is using things with subprime mortgages, which is basically borrowing against borrowing in borrowing against, barring and sell. you can't figure out who you are money now,

but in the same way the regulates, is once overlooking this, they were looking at the assets from the management of the bank, seeing how they were behaving. and we're seeing this in the same way in this case. in this case it's actually, i think he was because us is actually created this problem by raising him interests, right? which is cause the valuation of the assets the, the bank hold on the management, which is therefore caused this ricochet. now, silicon valley bank and everyone going down like a house of cards. when did the banks have been used to very low interest rates for a long time. thanks very much for breaking that down for us. chris cheers. thanks to the russian forces, have taken control of the small hamlets of valleys. young squire, near the city of arch, almost all backwards, not further in certain. it was according to the wagner pmc chief and buck moods obviously has been the focus of intense fighting over 7 months now with your troops, flint on both sides. despite the lack of ammunition in the most

difficult battle, our assault sec completing in circle into buzzwords. this morning, the pmc wagner saw units gained control over the village of zealous ninety's got out of the russian army reportedly attacked the rear of ukrainian reinforcements in the area over night starts after president zalinski office announced that it would keep defending the city, the major logistics hope for the ukranian army that he rushes. wagner group report that he took over part of the industrial zone of almond bach moods and verified online footage apparently confirms versus control of the vault thought marsh plans . as you can see in the footage, wagner has taken the facility in the north of the 50. and this is the same plants where president lensky commended ukrainian soldiers for the defense of the city last year. doesn't implants is one of the city's main strain holds strongholds with underground signals. vital for defense will. meanwhile, in the la guns republic, russian forces have shelled ukrainian positions. thus,

as the russian army continues is offensive with tank battles majoring on the ground on drones. crashing in the skies, ortiz eagerness done. it brings us more from the ground. the soil here in the spring time dawn bass is very close to quake sand parts of this forest. they say complete. ah, not many vehicles can cross this terrain freely and safely times. i sadly, among those that can ah, these tanks belong to the ural separate sold battalion to say they know their enemy

in the face is hardly an exaggeration. a 100 meters is sometimes rule that separates the sides. caves all seeing eyes focused on the battle for book moat and russian troops here in the loop. ganske republic have been trying to capitalize on the distraction. ukrainian command has drawn reinforcements, but they are often gathered out of yesterday's trainees without real combat experience. who become easy prey, such accuracy would be impossible without drones. there's such a swarm of them in the skies every day, every minute that it's not uncommon for russian and ukrainian birds to meet and duke it out like this. one is down, this time the russian drone literally came out on top and intention, the entirety of the russian forest shares with every heart in their ranks. i'm just

done of reporting from the dumbass goes to break away from that package, not because the talks between the syrian president, bashar al assad and his russian counterpart. but he may present, have begun in moscow. let's say what they have to say are trying to support you. and as you know, here's the portrait is our american representatives and armed forces representative station in sierra, we're helping labels, but you're also contributing to abra, timing, the consequences of the earthquake. the must be, was in the leaving side that what does he does more on that this look, look at the middle head, even side with that or whatever. we'll see what, what the most and see what the home, what that, what you do, the studio in the future. 5 anything comes relations are developing, concluding economy last year or freedom by 7 percent.

this idea that they just some of the mother on the subject, the sub communion attachment about that the journey is fusion boom with here. and we are going to mark the 18th. and the 1st 3 scenes that diplomatic relations between our country as well as a stablish summit. the diplomacy validate through our in i suggest to whole day towards into the stages. said the 1st stage nationally with our colleagues from both sides with me. and also, you know, i wouldn't be sure to cut them. i mean, the benefit was that happened to me and which was more than later we'll have a chance, contributing to how we're working blacklist will, will be able to do so to speak. the defeat mother with chose 2 of us present, which, which is to see what we do. we have every chance could use casually,

practically all the most important not force on the, on the topic. so now when a corporation i let the homework that offering it was, it was for the question, i'm very glad to seal welcome political italy was the date and i didn't 151. thank you mr. president with one on the thing for jewish and i'm one of the most v a c h. i am also very happy to be in moscow now to discuss all kinds of an address in house. daniel matters that will face the speaking a solution that is true of works that we're going to share what i can think there are always follow meetings and talks on all levels. when our officials, they never stop it and most likely numbers with all those changes happening could be international arena, looking for it on may coast to meet more and more often to outline the

paths of our community to put to my future corporation and the all the shuttle in chile, a contributor to so but in the beginning i would like to look at the one that says on the gratitude to you personally and told the ministries for the russian federation, the americans, hubert pratt and turn would help those to abra county consequences. so the earthquake mobile brush up a little toby, this is virginia little nurses gave you. that's and the defense ministry in the russian federation. and which is, it's troops that participated directly. epic you waiting oldham, injured people searching people, search and survivors from under the degree of yelling. and it really helped us to decrease the number of casualties, the number of fi insured next ship people and it helped us to lessen the damages

caused by the earthquake to decrease the damage in the market. because that's just a true. and i would like to redirect the gratitude of the syrian people for your firm position for a stand. so the russian federation on the international arena julia with the other daughter position with a position ship. the city is going to pay for a tag. one of the total integrity and sovereignty of the syrian era republican fighting terrorism and munching away is sending away all the foreign armed forces that are present. they're just looking to receive just picked up. so despite bratia is now, isn't really,

is now involved in the sounds financial, military operation. it still here is to be the same position, the same a stance, job search for minute. and now what i would like to use this opportunity for is base it down for the special operation and train of of the city schools. and i would like to read to read the syrians and stands on supporting their special mildred operation. again. neil nance is all now please hold on the bottom one and just a few dot come a you go to split the study and am saying that these are both old and you naps is because the wazell system is just one establish. but usually they had all

type of nasa's seen, you bare lands before and now the yards supporting the new time. lastly, we'll hook you up with this and you sort of pumpkins of those. and we are saying this, we are expressing a blaze position. not only because we have friendly relations, not only you because we are loyal it for years. and if you go to it, no, it's excellent that the most for me, we have just basic position because the world really needs stability to now. otherwise, 8 is going to cause some really large scale news. ask her young mother, you will live economy of tomorrow. the lit the timothy. huh. and a lot more. yeah. which in to william visa, and i'm very happy with her outcome of the meetings again concerning the work among our ministry is in the capital of bush. each phase that took place some days ago. i

see them as some of the bast meetings that we've had in the recent here is what is some with the leaders of that. and i think about the, the results that for reached by both parties, these time will help us machine to strengthen our financial and economic relations and to implement older words to, than turn all the words to practice either to re old clean julio. a few other clues toilet you should have more than once again. thank you miss her president for 30, but she mission invitation lots again. i would like to read to read the decisions created. williamson helpers to open send you aspect of relations, you can in the future relations between russia. syria had been a year to visit the and she said, well, the fish doesn't allow us to achieve those real practical results. and that will

help us to continue to build our cooperation into the future. so i suggested regarding them, so maybe now we'll was the talks between the russian president vladimir putin on the syrian president, bashar al assad in moscow. earlier today, over 2 parties done now were cautious between the nations police unsupported the fall. the prime minister among con of escalated outside his home in law hall was officers of once again failed to arrest. the opposition leader will not appearing at a court hearing on the ledger to corruption charges, the least and part of the whole has largely remained a bustle. ground violence spills into a 2nd day. the rest, which began on tuesday, as con supporters gathered outside his residence to protest against his arrest. local correspondence, george? yeah. has more in the story. some of my market. i'm standing outside some on park.

we're just 24 hours ago that was in operation launched by the coon job in islamabad . police to arrest former prime minister, wrong con, that is still ongoing. this whole area looks like it was on the deploy paramilitary troops fire to gas, an open file and protested many b t. i walkers were injured and went to hospitals. a state of emergency has been imposed in hospitals. schools have been shut down. all roads leading to examine park adjacent streets, and wor, contracts are completely close to the public. it looks like an occupied valley where no one is allowed to answer or access it. even the journalist who left last night and came back in the morning until till out in the area. they proved job. police say they will continue this operation until their arrest him run hon. jalencia ought in use. law hor, record highs of violence at the hands of islamic militants has ravaged africa

according to recent africa center for strategic studies analysis. last year alone, the constant reports at nearly 7000 attacks and 20000 casualties. that's a 22 percent increase in violence from the previous year. 21. the area hits the hardest, is the sa held region where and each year past that intervention is only worsened the situation. a senior research fellow at the johannesburg institute for advanced studies says that france and the u. s. have destabilized africa with their approach . but the french presence in the 1st instance was never in a, a morally or politically correct position. the french of never had been in africa in the 1st instance with colonialism, and certainly not in a so called post colonial every care. there is a definite infringement of the sovereignty of the continents different nations.

and much of the interventions of these 2 countries, largely the items in france they, it's a, it's in blatant, a breach of international law. this interference in the internal affairs of other countries and 3 untenable, as if there is one particular entity that is civilized and in and all the others are barbarians. and so this, the resort to intimidation and the logic of force amateurs could not have conducted the operation and blew up the nod stream pipelines. well that's the message from seymour hersh, the author that broke the story on the u. s. is a legit involvement in the blast notion. president also said that the attack was committed on a state level numbers to susan. the fact that this is a terrorist attack is no longer a secretary. moreover, it was a terrorist act committed at a state level because no amateurs could commit an attack like this. if you could

shoot his mrs. about month ago, up to the hersch investigation, that was a media campaign with o to goes appear in several newspapers, allegedly stating some ukrainian activists had organized the attack. and it was especially emphasized that these activists had nothing to do with the ukrainian government. look, how do you feel about these versions? luckily, williams with eden stood. 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. so right now russia is trying to get the united nations to launch an independent inquiry into the north stream, sabotaged or as russian president vladimir putin says, terrorist attack, the only enquiries 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 mean time float this narrative all across the mainstream. lester media, citing unnamed intelligence officials in each country like the u. s. and germany, for example, who are all conveniently blaming the whole thing on some quote 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 the bright idea to get together 5 other random deeds to load massive amounts of explosives onto a boat at a port and germany, sail 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. you're trying to divert attention from story that i wrote, which included enormous specifics. i was describing a process that began before christmas of 2021 involve 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. meanwhile, there's a total lack of outrage here in europe from the establishment. their silence is deafening. considering that the north stream network is a joint project with major european energy companies and russia gas prop to secure europe's energy needs. now, according to what's been seen recently in the russian media, sweden, denmark, and germany, 3 countries near the attack. and that should have had some information about it or not engaging with russian authorities trying to figure out what happened to me. it was very difficult for us to conduct our own investigation if we're not even allowed to access the side of this terrorist attack. only gas from received permission from danish authorities to investigate the side of the explosion. the gas problem did not limit itself to the study of the very place of explosion along the gas pipeline itself. the ship rented by gas pro moved on, and at

a distance of about 30 kilometers from the explosion site. a column was found which stood at a similar spot to where the explosions occurred. these are the most vulnerable places in the gas pipeline. the junction of pipes, experts believe that this may be an antenna for receiving a signal to activate an explosive device that can be placed beneath the pipeline. and now of course, we would like to get permission from danish authorities to independently together with them, or even better by forming an international group of explosive experts to carry out the necessary research. apparently, several explosive devices were planted, some exploded and some didn't. the reasons are unclear and so obviously some neutral authority really does need to intervene here like the un and a letter has been sent from the russian ambassador to the united nations, to the security council to that effect. but the west certainly doesn't seem interested in demanding its own answers. for more on this wid joined live now by ralph niemeyer,

the chairman of the german council for constitution and sovereignty is jonah's life . from munich. ralph, thanks very much for taking the time to be with us today. and 1st of all, i just want to to, to get your thoughts on this latest statement by vladimir putin that the attacks on these north stream pipes were carried out on a states level. it certainly seems that given the logistics of destroy and such on the water pipes would require certain sets of skills. yeah, it sounds absolutely reasonable and seems to be the only explanation that would really stand in the court of justice. for instance, you always can think that this is the biggest terror attack after 945 on german infrastructure and decided this is deafening. as the report of before said, i agree with that. drummond government has not answered any questions to members of parliament to put these questions directly to them, what kind of knowledge they would have in this investigation. and the answers from

the drum and government in writing saying that they do have some information but that this was so secret they could not share it even with a member of parliament in a secured atmosphere, which would be in the drama going to stock in the special room, but no tapping would be possible. so even that is not possible. and they also concluded in their letter saying that the findings would damage the reputation of a member states and department nation. so here you have it, they have something they know something, but they don't want to share with even with members of the german parliament. and that is frightening to think it all very, very cloak and dagger that ralph definitely. which countries do you think have benefited from the destruction of these pipelines? well, nobody here in germany believes that actually ukraine would be behind it. i mean,

it does have been sad, but also even mainstream media here in germany is going after that story in a way that they say could that be such a small yacht and you have to die a 70 or 80 meters steam and you need equipment for that you need a decompression box you need, but a lot of things to do and then plant devices that would expose this is too ridiculous to be believed. but of course, but stay german government into a difficult situation because they support for the deliveries to ukraine. shrinking further. nobody really wants to support a country that is able to support terrorist attacks that are carried out against the german infrastructure. so this is very difficult for the government right now. i believe the americans went behind it because they said openly, they want to stop the project they already did during the presidency. they had sanctions against companies. german companies are working on establishing the

pipeline to build it and to finish it. and so we see here, well, it's a pattern. they don't want to say it openly, that they were involved. of course, they can't admit that openly, but everyone knows when they said they were denied also that reports by, by seymour hersh, the ledge that they were involved in it and just took what brought me a picture said recently about the you did mention that no stream still has a future, do you, do you think that's possible? do you think it can be repaired and then ship gas transport gas to germany? yeah, that's what i had negotiated as well in the last stock in september 2022 just 2 weeks. busy before the explosion happened, and i was speaking to as a representative of the drummond opposition group that wanted to secure gas supply to germany through non stream to pipeline. at that time, we didn't know what was going to happen, but we confronted transfer charles at that time with the results of negotiations. i

spoke directly with mr. law bro, for mr. pasco and mr. miller, the ceo and chairman of gas broke. so we had a valid agreement on the table, and then 9 days after my visit to mister charles's office, it pipelines exploded. so i believe that when mister charles had been in washington last week, he got new orders from mister bye and nothing was said about the meeting really in public. but we can assume that mister by them told mr. charles, listen, stop that. we will have a solution for you, we will talk about the ukrainian support of not stream and then we will probably even finish the war. intriguing. well ralph named chairman of the german council for constitution solvency. live for munich. thanks very much again for your thoughts to them. so it will have you on the program again before too long to discuss the ins and outs of this intreat. thank you very much.
