11:30 am
watch in america. the earth is i in control of the world's largest lithium deposits there, which are crucial for electronic device industries. us military general law richardson denounced who she called autocrats in charge of latin america. but she also had the freedom of speech of media outlets like r, c, spanish and sputnik which provide information from a viewpoint. washington doesn't always agree with this region as full of resources . and i worry about them align activity of our adversaries taking advantage of that . looking like they're investing when they're really extracting, we have the lithium triangle in this region, 60 percent of the world's lithium argentina, bolivia, sheila have this and it's taking resources away from these countries. and from there are people that are trying to deliver these democracies that are trying to deliver for their people. that's cost life now to daniel shaw, professor of latin american and caribbean to the new york university. daniel, thanks very much for joining us this evening. now,
11:31 am
what do you make of this latest plan by the us government to reassert domination over latin america? wouldn't be a reassertion. it would be an ongoing continuation of the same geo political domination that the united states has tried to sustain since the $1824.00. when row doctrine, general laura richardson's tone before the house of representatives is particularly hawkish. usually the u. s. tries to hide behind more humanitarian motors, but she's come out very blatantly and said that really only the eu has us has the right to exploit south america. imagine the park receive thing that china or russia is on the quote unquote 20 yard line of the u. s. homeland. when u. s. military has russia encircled with nato and of course, all of their aggression using taiwan to try to trigger a proxy war against china. so what we really hear out of the mouth of laura
11:32 am
richardson is the same old hypocrisy and double standards that we've heard from us imperialism now to centuries. what do you think russia and chinese influence in latin america is really that much of a threat to the u. s. and what do you think that was trying to cut off a southern america, the america concert? the moments and that's precisely what the u. s. is afraid of that. there are now different trading polls. there are different geopolitical camps that the countries of south america can use. i, i recently returned from cuba in the cubans, constantly reiterated. if it wasn't for russian solidarity, if it wasn't for millions of tons of grain that the russian sent to you, but where would you be to day with his already hunger sparked by the blockade. what with us wants really is extreme hunger and starvation. as with the blockade against cuba has always signified in their open aggression against the boulevard in
11:33 am
revolution in venezuela, the regression against the m e. s. leadership in bolivia, and of course nicaragua. and that i would really a country that has been striving economically despite the increased us sanctions always. every week we hear about heighten the sanctions against those 4 countries that i mentioned in the fact that there exists a russian camp in a chinese camp in iranian camp. means that the sanctions every day are less and less effective and meeting washington's objective, which is total isolation of any anti capitalist country. now you did as you mentioned cuba and, and the of us that brings to mind the cuban missile crisis. do you think that, that some latin american nations could perhaps be wary of getting too close to russia? given some of these historical events in the past that have brought these nations at loggerheads? we should remember, there wasn't just a cuba missile crisis. it was a turkey missile crisis because the u. s. head nuclear weapons, very close to the soviet union in 1962 and throughout the entire cold war,
11:34 am
which is a global class struggle for power. i think each, our south american government is orienting differently. we still have neo liberalism in command in the driver's seat of ecuador, of quite a mile of other countries are right now, brazil's trying to have more a neutral stance. we saw the qu in b to we have a huge election coming up in argentina in october. so we have this showdown, and all these different countries between the forces of multilateralism of a whole new day in the forces that continue to be lackey's of us imperialism. what are your property or what's your assessment? excuse me, of the prospects for these latin american nations to break free from the u. s. fear of infants, or do you think that destined to stay there forever? no, no, no, it's a whole new day. if we look at brazil prior to lulu taking power in 2003 brazil economically and geopolitically was squarely in the pocket of
11:35 am
u. s. neo colonial interests. today there's a different reality today. if we look at trade, whether it's an order g, y, or el salvador, or brazil, we see that china is often a leading trading partner. in the u. s. i said this pretentious attitude of back yard is them again south american, the caribbean, for so long. so they're very alarmed that they are now options, actual democratic options, and even the more, right leaning governments, like the ecuadorian government, for example, they don't want to be left behind. so even the neo liberal regimes are reaching out to china, russia and other trading partners. so it's a whole new day. we can no longer talk about when they'll be arise of multi polarity is we're living right now. second, to 2nd day to day, year to year through the collapse of us gemini, in the rise of a multi letter, multi lateral interest. specifically in the south american con, continent with voices like able morales and rough alcorda. and so many others who
11:36 am
are pushing this anti imperialist agenda. indeed, some tectonic shifts in global geo politics. daniels show, professor of latin american and type in studies are the new york university. thank you very much for speaking with us today. thank you. ah. meanwhile, ukraine will receive the 1st 4 soviets made fighter jets from poland within the next couple of days. thus, according to the polish president, he said the more planes are on the way firstly, literally within the next few days, we will hand over as hard as i remember for aircraft to ukraine in full walk in order. the rest of being prepared and serviced on may 29 is a soviet era jet, still operated by several eastern european countries, including poland. the jets like so aerial combat but can also be used in ground attacks. poland has previously said it was 2 places seats of mig 29th with new fighters from nate. so for me,
11:37 am
us marine drama. do good says such war planes would not make a significant impact on the battlefield. there's a reason napoleon is doing it, and paul is not doing this out of generosity and they're not doing it because they help. they think that these megs are going to make any sort of impact. they're doing it because they want money from nato, and they're going to want to replace them with different nato aircraft. look, i'm not saying that to make the batter plans fantastic. except for the fact that russia has such incredible ground to air missile capabilities. systems like the s 300, s 400 systems. and it's really gonna render these aircraft. i mean, move really, you know, the news for lanka and russia open their doors for more tourism as 7 additional commercial flights are set to begin bringing the total now to $21.00
11:38 am
a week. while this goes for this increase means with the bus, the shoreline could, to russia and the head of the bureau for promoting tourism. and you must, of course, welcome also the news of these flights. will they create a tangible difference all the parts of some small incremental steps to continue developing the industry as a whole of it is actually going in a big way. i must say the numbers are looking very good. not only russia, the other countries, as in a recovery process in terms of rebuilding processing, sri lanka, we are on target and we can even go for a higher number. and especially with countries like russia, russia being number one for us in terms of arrival, especially in the last 34 months, is very positive. so he's short the midterm, and definitely long term as well. you know, when you look at the news, you can imagine that some people might be a little bit puts off from going that at the moment, at least well, so trying to create for you. well actually, you know, what happened last year, especially in april to june or july, 1st portrayed, you know, very negative way across the world. that is,
11:39 am
that is normally when it comes to media, negative media, the insulation is easy to sell, rather than the positive. actually everything in the coalition going along with a young and energetic minister who's in charge for tourism actually moving forward in a very positive manner. you know, those protests that you saw in may, june, july, it does not happen any more. the, the areas are looking to boost cooperation with russia and apart from tourism and trade was main focuses of corporation between 2 countries. yes, i have all of the started the nutrition corporation, trasha. i have clinic that many and i, she was abused to feel like, i mean was it is some university delegations in sri lanka when these, this at, they open the russian language centers insulin. and you know, as it is now. and in addition to that trade and hit it, and then also the hit in the health et enough. so last week we had to meet didn't really fun with the health minister here in russia. and he's on his to help us in
11:40 am
many ways in pharmaceutical manufacturing. area and the health care systems and there are using the new modern technologies in health systems and those areas and also the trade. so we are planning a very big drill fair in fashion to trade for i'm russia in the summer now fanning to do that. so i, in, they'll say the 80 aspect we are looking for in the near future apocalyptic conflicts could be the consequence of the u. s. air force shooting down a russian aircraft in international airspace. according to the russian ambassador to the u. s. who was responding to comments from a republican senator and a liberal attack on russian aircraft neutral. asked pace is not just a crime in accordance with international law,
11:41 am
but an open declaration of war on the largest nuclear power. it's not russian pile, so should be held responsible, but american politicians for inciting an apocalyptic conflict. well, we should hold them accountable and say that if he ever get near another, you asset, flying in international waters, your airplane would be shut down. what would ronald reagan do? right now, he would, he would start shooting russian planes down if they were threatening r s. s. u. s. european command release. the footage of the re present council with the russian su 27 fights, a jet was denied that the u. v. was intentionally taken down according to russia's ministry of defense, the drone loss control as a result of a risky maneuver. several top russian officials have already stated that the re pad no business in the vicinity of set estoppel despite being in international airspace . and as such, recognizance operations are dangerously provocative. will international consultant and retired u. s. military lieutenant colonel, earl rasmussen, he says the american drone was likely gathering intelligence for ukraine. i think
11:42 am
the, the us will be more, perhaps more cautious, but they'll probably still send drones out there. this is a look at mr. prescott that the known was well known in advance that this was in a, basically a conflict zone area. and that zone of the special military operation. so what other area of vehicles are flying they're, they're taking at their own risk probably would have been fair game. just shoot it down as well. yes. is the information being collected for nato countries? yes. is it highly likely that it's being given to ukraine? it would not surprise me, as it was absolutely, especially, you know, there, there been discussions on, on looking at ways to strike it, crimea, and you want to know where the facilities are. and either way, whether you're going to do an electronic attack or another type of attack,
11:43 am
but it definitely was gathering strategic information that would be shared with member but governance corruption and poor distribution of goods. well, those are the reasons that molly ins have given for the large migration flows from african countries. nothing responds to accusations from the italian government, the russian private michigan wagner is behind italy's migrants was, we had some local people remark. it was for me, what pushes african to take the path of europe is the under development of different african states and the 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 to strategy, to better keep their children on their territory, unless you love african generally leave africa for several reasons. security
11:44 am
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. i don't see kids because of russia. young african fleet for europe didn't start to date. it's true, the conflicts are one of the reasons what brings conflicts. it is bad governance, corruption or distribution of goods, all of these because now turns into conflicts that are undermining the developmental to african continent. it's always been bustling and migration crisis for over 10 years. since this starts of the arab spring of the 2022, there were already more than 5000000 migrants in the country. and $20000.00 more people have already arrived since the south of this year. over the weekend, at least some 3, my wrist died, trying to reach the coast of the southern region of calabria. over the city has
11:45 am
shifted responsibility for the migration problems on to russia's private military. wagner group, which is currently in molly, at the request of the country's government, according to russia's foreign ministry. we spoke earlier with a pan african analyst from neighboring, but also he says that all western attempts to blame wagner own indicate that western involvement in africa has failed. know as opposed to say, i think this state is completely far fetched 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 cooperation 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
11:46 am
a result, there has been a lot of security in the central african republic under president dera, looking faster, 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 militant group boca her arm have been killed by forces from neighboring neesha. well, more than $900.00 of his followers, including women and children, have been detained as a result of counter terror. opperation of the groups violence against and jerry and government had led to the deaths of more than 40000 people. according to the un. the vast lake charge region shed by nigeria nisha come rune uncharged as a base for boca her activity, which increased last month. the 4 countries set up a multinational joint task force back in 2015. the aim of defeating the armed group
11:47 am
on promoting stability in the region. oklahoma became known around the world of the group and more than $200.00 school girls, many of whom have still not been returned. home. local journalist cru, see beatrice brings us more on the story. it's been over 8 years now since 276, christine girls, between the ages of 1618 were kidnapped by mcguire. i'm tourist from the of school in the state of bull. no. in nigeria for i all to the read, the school was closed for 4 weeks due to did tori to in 2nd grade to conditions. what to the girls with that in order to write the final examinations would out when i would have completed my education. if they didn't abduct 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,
11:48 am
i hated that they married me to one of the fighters. his name is but who are 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 this law mich lessons and observed press, he'd be tied up and beaten at a locked house for days. we will not allow to go out and were 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 in new men 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
11:49 am
caught up with the mother of one of the girls who are still missing. rachel, daniel sees her like houses changed since her daughter was her doctor. 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 previous would frances, to call on the nigerian government to rescue her daughter an auto deals who are still in the hands of the director who the call comes up. the poor francis met with 2 girls who escaped from b g. hardest terrorist after use of violence when i known as i suffered from high blood pressure, i couldn't eat, i couldn't do anything when i was placed under medication till i got better. the army have been assuring me for a long time that they'll rescue her man. no, i'm not tired of waiting. when i,
11:50 am
when i heard that the pope met some of the freed girls. i also want it to be like other mothers whose daughters were also rescued. i want to poke to please pray for my daughter wherever she is. let her be released, whether she's dead or alive when it please let the pope beg the nigerian government to do something. the luncheon and many choice intervention has led to many of the kid. naps goes rescued, $98.00. well still not from the town. she walk in 2014 still remain missing. most residents are wondering why the military has failed to rescue the remaining gills. the spread of the hush talks as part of the bring back our gas company was an attempt to put pressure on the next year government to help return the gills bar. i'm 2 pixels auditing news. international may do good ukrainian defense minister has been caught up in a food corruption scandal,
11:51 am
apparently inflating prices for some items by 3 times as according to ukrainian member of parliament, he slammed keith for turning a blind eye to the situation. resnick of plan to buy potatoes for soldiers at 3 times the price paid by the defense ministry supplier. since this is not the 1st scandal with the unspeakable minister and his purchases, only 2 questions remain. what kind of scum do you have to be to steal from a soldier's plate? and what kind of scum do you have to be to turn a blind eye to this at the top levels of power? i don't understand why resnick, of with such managers and salaries should steal money on potatoes. but apparently a rat is a calling and a destiny. when ukraine had previously been shaken by a similar feud, corruption scandal with ties to the defense ministry for the minister was able to state office, dismissing the allegations as false, the whistle blowing ukrainian law maker claims a situation hasn't improved and is demanding immediate action from the government
11:52 am
on canadian opposition, politician criticized ukraine for undermining natal funding. what the problem with this government is they, they, they, it's not that they don't spend enough. it's that they don't achieve enough results for the spending. they do spend too much on back office bureaucracy and not enough on frontline military equipment. well, international attorney kline preston says the emergence of corruption allegations is no surprise to an indicator that in my view that the ukrainian government, those in, in leadership have lost confidence in the outcome and the future of their country. and that's why they're gonna, they're going to line their pockets, like they've been doing off of the u. s. aid and money this, when going to prop up this regime from the united states. so a true, honest assessment of what this means is it spells disaster for
11:53 am
ukraine because i think it shows a lack of confidence amongst those who are in charge and who have the most information about the true status of things in ukraine. the government alexi regina called surely has a real understanding of the future of this conflict and what's gonna happen with his government. and i think that's an indicator once someone starts line in their pockets like this, that they don't have confidence that this regime is going to last that much longer . well, that's the route for now. my name is peter scott, and i'll be back again at the top of the hour, which is in a couple of minutes time with all the latest news and views right here on our t. ah,
