ah, ah, the global financial system is shaken by a plunge in the stock of switzerland, 2nd largest bank, renewing face of another financial crush. pushes minister defense calls american drone flights near russia's border provocative pentagon and russian officials communicates for the 1st time in months following an american. you're a v crush in the black sea on tuesday, and margins are outraged by the italian government tend to play in the european migration crisis on the russian privates military group. wagner, i don't think it's because of russia. young african spleen for europe didn't start to date. russia has different ways to effectively help africa as an example. we already have molly, where wagner soldiers fight against terror with

july, from our headquarters here in moscow, you're watching our t international. my name is peter scotts, and here the top stories at 3 pm moscow time, thanks for joining us. by his talks in asia have taken a bit of a tumble following reports that the catastrophic turmoil at mega bank credit suisse could have world wide repercussions. drug in global markets, lower. the news broke japan's topics. bangs index dropped by 6.4 percent during the morning session with hong kong standard charted and south korea's shit. hon. financial group trailing close behind, unraveling investor confidence across continents. since banking shares were hammered in both europe and new york like comes after credit suisse bank stocks, plunge rats old global markets. with this with central bank stepping in the $53000000000.00 lifeline. that says, credit 3 says biggest shareholder, saudi national banks,

that it wouldn't boost isha past the current level of just under 10 percent, triggering a fall in turn of 30 percent increase. we shares the coast shift is across financial markets, sparking a slump in major indices with comes hot on the heels of financial turmoil in the u . s. where the collapse of 2 major banks has sent ripples throughout the financial world also contributes. rachel marston has more the failure of silicon valley bank in the united states is sending shock waves through europe's financial system. and it's also sending its bank stocks into free fall on wednesday with the european press, making the link between the u. s. crisis and new trouble for europe's banking sector . cuddy cerise had dropped on zurich stock market by mid day. it's top investor, the saudi national bank said that they won't help cushion the blow by buying any more than the 9.8 percent of the shares that they already own, since they want to avoid any new regulatory regimes. they kick in above 10 percent

investment economists, new rail rubini said in an interview that they could histories crisis is a quote, lehmann moment for european and global markets referring to the lehman brothers collapse. that sparked the 2008 economic crisis in the united states. which then spread to europe. french banks were especially hit hard on wednesday with trading and francis b and b about he bass stocks temporarily halted earlier in the day as its value plunged. as did that of associates isn't it? i'm could. yeah, they could. and germany's chorus bank, the ceo of global investment giant black rock, larry think, suggest that silicon valley bank was just the 1st domino to fall, calling it a quote, slow rolling crisis with quote more seizures and shut downs coming. but just face earlier french economy and finance, mr. berlin or the mer insisted that everything was just fine. and he seemed kind of

annoyed with suggestions otherwise come down and just have a look at the really t do, eddie t. e that to bang such who just mentioned sunday, which had a french banking system is not exposed to the city, can bank i was seeking very bank, you snot exposed to do silicon valley bank. so there is no links between the different situations. there is no specific concern on the full defense banks. now the men is also told french state tv that there was not a risk of contagion in france and that french banks work solid, which is kind of a tough cell when it's pretty much the opposite of what europeans are actually witnessing in real time. it all sounds eerily like the last financial crisis back in 2008 when europe was caught flat footed the current european central bank governor. he still liked. yeah, that was french finance minister at the time and said back in september of 2008, that quote, the big systemic risk is behind us. but one month later, france,

germany and britain were meeting about national and block wide bailouts and rescue packages. so not exactly the water under the bridge that la garza had figured at that the time. looks like european leaders were about as reliable in their foresight then as they are now. and not just when it comes to europe, but russia to last year, lou met assured that sanctions against moscow would bring down the russian economy . as european union commission, president ursula vander line announced that the west was cutting russian banks off from the swift system on some suit. if you guess the financial sanctions are formidable effectiveness and i want to leave no ambiguity on the european determination on the subject who are going to wage a total economic and financial warren. russia will therefore provoke the collapse of the russian economy. we commit to ensuring that a certain number of russian banks are removed from swift. this will ensure

that these banks, a disconnect from the international financial system and harm their ability to operate globally right now, cutting off russian banks from their western counterparts is actually starting to look more like throwing someone overboard before the ship goes down. in order to save them, when the west was working to isolate rushes, financial system from, there's little did they know that they'd actually be saving moscow from the risk of contagion, their contagion. a year later, despite all the western sanctions, russian banks have managed to adapt. and in january, the russian central bank announced that the country's current account surplus hit record high last year with the increased price of oil and gas exports, even as europe was cutting itself off. from them, maybe if european leaders had been as focused on insulating the block from the u. s

. financial system in the wake of the 2008 crisis as they bid with cutting it off from russia. then maybe they wouldn't yet be in the position of gearing up for yet another potential white knuckle roller coaster ride with uncle sam at the controls . and no one can say that it's not possible for the you to isolate itself from the united states economy. because somehow canada right on the u. s. border and its largest trading partner manage just fine to isolate itself from the u. s. banking system. 562 us banks went belly up over the past 20 years, yet not a single one in canada. so here we go. yes, we had another example of europe over reliance and over dependence on the u. s. to its own detriment. much like the current energy crisis that he got itself into egged on by washington. and you have to wonder how many times the you has to learn its lesson the hard way before coming to its senses for its own sake. what

political analyst on journalist john rowley says that western governments will charge who sold the current crisis the same way they did back in 2008 by simply printing more money. this is what happened in 2000 and 8th. i mean, you know, the government bowed up the big bank by pretty money, right? we had all of this, all, we took all these measures to save the banks, right. printing printing, right? it was called q e quantitative easing. it was basically printing one trillion, 2 trillion dollars and sorry, i can't remember the exact figure, but they threw all this money at the bank and that money, you know, where did it go? you know, it didn't really go into the economy. no, it's settled in the bank, and it contributed to inflation and depletion in the value asset, which of course is an artificial inflation. and this is the problem that the american government always gets involved in the crisis and try to solve by printing more money for that doesn't solve the problem. that just won't solve the temporarily. it pushes the problem on towards the future, right?

so basically we're also, we're now today coming to correction, we are coming to reckon with the poor measures that were implemented after 2008 or an apocalyptic conflict could be the consequence of the u. s. for shooting down russian aircraft in international airspace. well, that's at least is according to the russian on buffalo to the u. s. he was responding to comments from a republican senator and a liberal attack on russian aircraft and neutral ass space is not just a crime in accordance with international law, but an open declaration of war on the largest nuclear power. it's not russian pilots who should be held responsible, but american politicians who are inciting and apocalyptic conflict, we should hold them accountable and say that if you ever get near another us flying in international waters, your airplane would be shut down. what would ronald reagan do? right now, he would, they would start shooting russian planes down if they were threatening our asses. u

. s. european commander released the footage of the re present council with the russian suits $27.00 fights a jet. moscow has denied the u. a. v was intentionally taken down, according to russia's ministry defense, the drone loss control. as a result of a risky maneuver, several top russian officials have already stated that the reap had no business in the vicinity of set stoffel. and as such, recognizance operations are dangerously prerogative. authorized me to call server picks up the story the incident was caused by us actions that violated the flight restrictions zone said why the russian federation would note that the flights of american strategic unmanned aerial vehicles near crimean shores are provocative in their nature and create the conditions for escalation in the black sea, moscow site that they you west was aware all along that, that area that air space. i had a flight, restricted status all along. but washington, of course, i'll a has always said that it would ignore that and continue flying wherever they,

sol fits. and this is what happens. so naturally, moscow says, since washington was aware, this most likely seems to be an act of provocation. so they're just looking for a way to escalate their approaches. and this is one of the ways they did that since again, they knew that that area had a flight restricted sat at 1st. they were accusing moscow right away. they said that the moscow did this intentionally, and now just literally less than 24 hours have changed their tune. and now we have statements from the usaa state department spokesperson that price. who said that it looks like it was most likely an unintentional event. let's take a listen. i think the best assessment right now is that a probably was unintentional. it probably was the result of profound and competence on the part of one of these russian pilots. at 1st we saw media in the us, absolutely gone crazy, been hysterical, really accusing russia and said that russia did this on purpose purpose. and now literally less than 24 hours later we have the u. s. state department saying that

this looks like an unintentional incidents and we can hear from the u. s. state department, what he had to say there in that price, that now it's an unintentional or incidents. and again, we're saying that there are now focusing on the manner in which this happens and they're making elaborate videos and simulations of how it happened. and so let's have a look at one of their versions of what they claim, how it happened, their visualizations, ocean jet approach from the rear dumping fuel u. s. officials believe it meant to come up in front of the drone, so it would fly into the fuel cloud, but pulled up too soon and clipped the drone propeller, which is located in the rear. the drones controllers could do nothing but let it glide into the sea. rasa forrest part has always maintained from the very few hours after this happened, that russia did not come into contact, actual physical contact if you will,

with the drawing. and also it did not shoot it down, they did not use any weapons against that. but again, we saw all what was happening in western media there. and again, there were, there were prepared. ah, but perhaps it was a russian as spokesperson are the 3 to scott who said at best actually a, let's have a listened exactly about that flight, restrict the status, which is the key and most important information of as they those who shouldn't have been there. shouldn't have flown there and then everything would have been environmentally friendly. and this of course was everything and to risk as a sort of gale of rob mentioned earlier in the day that these actions, they know the risks that they're taken. washington, when they do this and they risk escalating, is this something that they're looking for? that is the question. though to libya, now we're over to tons of uranium has gone missing from a site's not controlled by the government's most according to a statement by the international atomic energy agency chief rafael grossey. i.

ain specter is found. the 10 drums contained an approximately turn half tons of natural uranium in the form of uranium or concentrate previously declared by libya as being stored at that location were not present at the location. the loss of knowledge about the present location of nuclear material may present a radiological risk, as well as nuclear security concerns for johnny me live now in the studio is artie correspondent, steve st sweeney. steve, what do you know about the uranium? whoa, as who has heard from the unique there watchdog more than 2 tons of uranium has gone missing in libya at the agency. couldn't say when it went missing and the details of its location remain unclear. other than that, it is integrity. that is not under the control of the you impact interim government . it's important to note that this stays at the uranium is not in rich, meaning it's not weapons ready? now the former libyan leader mammography at renounce libby as nuclear program, back in 2003. but of course it could be over time and that's where the real concern

is. and at this day we don't know who's responsible for its disappearance. and what's the overall situation like in libya at the moment, steve? one, of course, it remains incredibly volatile. live libya descended into a quagmire after the nato packed bombing campaign in 2011 in the western packing of armed militia. now, they tried to set up a time as a popular uprising against a brutal dictator. move gadhafi. colonel gadhafi needs to step down from power and leaf. gadhafi must stop fighting without conditions and clearly show that he has given up any claim to control libya. will gadhafi of course, warned that at the time that the west was seeking to oust him and to plunder libya's resources lamara, there is a conspiracy to control libyan oil to control the libyan land. and to colonize libby again, this is impossible, impossible,

and we will fight into the last man and woman to defend libya. now, gadhafi was of course killed in a brutal manner. his death famously celebrated by then you are sick, the estate hillary clinton is a reminder. yes, we came, we saw a died but the country has been unstable ever since with various armed militia, including islamist state vying for control of the country. and at liebherr effectively split into 2 parallel government. the un box government of national cold, based in libya, and the air force is backed by a general cali for hipaa based in so brook. now both sides have international support. some countries including france, have even been accused of supporting both sides, but efforts a cease fire in the formation of a national unity. government have proved very, very difficult alms. embargoes have been repeatedly broken and elections postponed

indefinitely. so what now state well the a, i e, a has said the investigations are ongoing, but they've been light on detail so far. they've of course informed their member states of what's happening and they re remain const, very concerned over at nuclear security. and of course, who exactly has got the hands on this uranium, but it is very clear that the western intervention in libya has made the country and the world a more dangerous place in d. thanks very much for breaking that down for steve. thank you. but governance corruption and poor distribution of goods. those other reasons mullins have given for the launch migration flows from african countries. the 3rd responds to accusations from the italian government, the russian private minutes group. wagner is behind. it's a nightmare was we heard some local people romance, it was reserved for me. what pushes africans to take the path of europe as the

under development of different african states and a lack of work. we can't accuse rush on all these points, but sincerely, we can say that this migratory flow of africans is due to a lack of work, lack of development, and also lack of will from african politicians to put in place of strategy to better keep their children on their territory. eliza, thank you. i love africans, generally leave africa for several reasons. security reasons, financial reasons, and others, even out of a simple desire to discover new horizons. russia has different ways to effectively help africa. as an example, we already have molly, where wagner soldiers fight against terrorists. but it was for delay. i don't think it's because of russia, young africans fleet, for europe didn't start to date. it's true that conflicts are one of the reasons of it, but what brings conflicts? it is bad governance corruption, poor distribution of goods. all of these has now turns into conflicts that are

undermining the. 1 development of the african continent number, but it still has been battling a migration crisis for over 10 years since the starts of the arab spring. as a 2022, there were already more than 5000000 migrants in the country. and $20000.00 more people have already arrived since the starts of this year. over the weekend at least 73 my van's died trying to reach the coast of the southern region of calabria . however, italy shifted responsibility for the migration problems on to the russian privates military, wagner group, which is in malia, the request of the country's governments, according to the russian foreign ministry that we spoke with, a pun african on a list from neighboring. but kinda faso, is it all western attempts to blame? wagner only indicate that western involvement on the continent has failed. only opposed to say, i think this statement is completely farfetched, and apps are if you will, they are looking for an excuse to explain their fail due to their inability to help their ally ukraine and to blame the wagner group for instigating the influx of

migrants is simply insane, only the west is capable of such fabrication corporation with other players, b, russia, china, or iran is very important in african countries which had very tangible failures and working with the western block can re orient themselves precisely towards it. more recently, less than 5 years ago, african countries began to trust other allies not from the western block. as a result, there has been a lot and security in the central african republic under president dera, look in a facile which turned it back on the western block only in january now has operational drones. there are being used to fight terrorists real results, reclaimed territories. that's what the alternative block is capable of around 30 members of the nigerian minutes and grew boca, her arm being killed by forces from neighboring nisha. but more than $900.00 of his followers, including women and children, have been detained as a result of counts,

the girls with it in order to write the final examinations. oh, now when i would have completed my education, if they didn't have ducked me in the 1st place, honestly the life there is not an easy one compared to the freedom now, because we aren't allowed to go out and there were rules on clothes, we shouldn't where we were forced to marry some of the fighters. i hated life. i hated that they married me to one of the fighters. his name is me. boudoir got to her. it was why myself and 2 other girls escaped from the forest one night says we were forced to convert to islam and if he refused to attend there slamming lessons and observe press, he'd be tied up and beaten and locked house for days. we will not allow to go out and we're followed whenever we want to ease ourselves and bathe, because they feared we might run away. sometimes they rate us. i was married off to

one of the fighters who's an assistant to one of the commanders. i gave birth to a child for him, but he died along the way when we escaped. there were 7 of us that escaped from the terrorists camp at 12 am in the morning. we spent days without food and water. some people saw us and took me to the security agents and newman in a downwash state where they publicized my abduction. as one of the missing tobac girls said that my parents could trace me. i was 14 years old when they took me. i caught up with the model of one of the girls who are still missing. rachel, daniel sees her like houses changed since her daughter was abducted. having heard stories about what may have happened to some of the girls on the slavery by the g. hardest terrorist. rachel can only wonder what her daughter was going to. she has cleared with frances, who called on the nigerian government to rescue her daughter and order girls who are still in the hands of the dragon who the call comes up. poor francis met with 2

yourself or do a new business and you will clean with our shoes on your medical gray you, when you wrote, you got to really just touching up critical to the student for whether you will still suction. sure. emma's names you talk to a different student in full child wishing look. do you use her own the with them on the phone and you're still there with choice you to roost your heroes. i want to check your history as a both of them at the study skills with me for just to watch stuff for me to on, on all kinds of twitter which, which no longer it was just a push to to stream remote because a leash new a divorce load you school, of course, i don't know who to go for the don't or is it

a do use just opinion finances come with. who is the aggressor today? i'm authorizing additional strong sanctions. today russia is the country with the most sanctions imposed against it. a number that's constantly growing. i think it's just a list, of course, when you click on anything you mostly mind or wish you were banding all in ports of russian oil and gas, new g. i. g, with a, with joe biden, imposing these sanctions on russia has destroyed the american economy. so there's your boomerang

with boss, with you, i british need them. good. i didn't miss you. want to them with key at the when washington keep the process is to dealer molly complete with was supposed to lead video was too prevalent, but yet with a huge a huge ah. hello, i'm manila chan you are tuned into modus operandi. billions of people around the

world use social media daily. it's hard to remember what life looks like before the internet. smartphones automated this automated that the use of technology has certainly made life more convenient for most people around the world. but did you ever stop to think about how that technology is using you, even worse, how governments are using that technology on you? this week we'll look into the overlap the big tech and politics all around the world. all right, let's get into the m l. me, technology is all around you. you're watching this right now because a big tech, but the industry is not as fun and virtuous as it likes to present itself. the same

people who make it so you can laugh at cat videos, share your baby's 1st steps, or your hottest dance moves. are also the same people who shape political narratives at the behest of governments. in effect big tech shapes how you see the world and helps the government see you. joining us to discuss all of this is chris garage offer co host of the covert action bulletin podcast and technology right. or chris, thank you for being with us. first, chris, let's look at the big picture here. what's your take on the role of big tech and politics both domestically and abroad? just like any big business, you know, big tech has a huge role in u. s. and global politics. and of course the u. s. as a giant role in global politics as well, i would say it's outsiders because we all know.
