you live for my headquarters in moscow you're watching are see international. my name is peter scott's been here. the top stories are 4 pm this friday. thanks for joining us. official shooting ping is set to visit moscow next week to meet to bloody mer putin. there'll be plenty to discuss from the russian chinese strategic partnership. so with the pressing global issues, the finding of bilateral agreements has also been announced with more details to follow. our tea corresponded dakota has more was we said earlier in the program, this high level upcoming meeting is going to be the 1st trip abroad. that teaching ping will makes sense. he was re elected president, and this is also connected to more than a few paul, a foreign policy spheres for both russia and china. not only are both leaders going to be signing off on some very important bilateral agreements, but china's foreign ministry also said that this is going to be a meeting

a piece. that's because beijing is ready to play a constructive role in regulating the ukraine conflict. and we also heard from that foreign ministry of china that there, that beijing is also looking to basically ground these talks and the principles of non confrontation with 3rd parties. so that's all among other topics on the agenda, including questions of international and regional importance as well. as strengthening the strategic cooperative partnership between these 2 countries. now it's also important to understand that these talks are, have just been announced on the backdrop of the marine security belt joint naval exercises which are between china, russia and iran. and these have been taking place in the gulf of all mon since march 15th, so it represents another frontier of developing cooperation between these 2 countries in this situation, specifically naval and military cooperation. let's discuss this live now with nelson. wong vice chairman of the shanghai center for impact and international

studies devolved aykl x. but nelson, great. have you on the program again, thanks very much for joining us. now. first of all, i just want to just what sort of message do you think she's in? ping is sending to the rest of the worlds by visiting moscow as the 1st international trip after reelection. well, i think it's a breaking news in a sense those, but it's something to be expected. actually we've been talking a lot in different media is that perhaps chinese president is going to be visiting moscow. but now today, the news has being fall, confer with china's official announcement, but i think it basically shows that was seeking, paying, getting re elected as the countries lead recently following the people's congress. i think the message to the rest of the world is that china is continuing

to further its relations with russia. and this is a bilateral relations that china is, is sticking to. and that china as a country that adheres to its independence and its foreign policy is not going to be deterred or manipulated, or being influenced by any other 3rd party. so this is a very clear message that, that's being sent out. and so there are a lot of, you know, guesses and rumors about what they're going to discuss about. but i think of all the topics that the 2 country leaders between the she and president booking. i think the topic of the ongoing conflict in ukraine is certainly going to be on top of the agenda and that's going to be discussed for jewel. but bear in mind

that china has recently published its position on supporting peace and cease fire of the conflict. so i believe this is certainly going to be discussed in detail. you got to take the next question out of my mouth and nelson. what? yeah, i guess the one ukraine will be the top of the agenda, the especially after the proposed piece plan. there have also been some unconfirmed reports that president she may even talk with president zaleski following his trip to moscow. do you think most likely well, it is always likely. all these are predictions and guesses, but i did leave as to whether miss besieging paying is going to to, to, to call and talk with the lensky over the phone or in person. we don't know,

but whatever the case, i think all these things will get unfold very soon. wedding a matter of a week. i think after the meeting with mister booting so and also as to the results of the meeting as to what they're going to discuss about whether there'll be any concrete plans coming out. that's something we'll have to wait to see and looking forward to. well, you can certainly imagine that many in the west will be eyeing this meeting very closely, especially after the us made the claim. a couple of weeks ago that, that china was about to send lisa laid to sue to russia. again, it didn't provide any evidence of that, but do you do, how do you think this is going to go down in washington in the west? well, there's being a lot of talk in the west and west media about possible chinese supply of even true. what business to russia? but i don't think this is likely to happen. i think the country has made its

position very clear that it's going to support peace and cease fire. and it's not going to take a side or pick a side, either russia or ukraine. no. so this is something that we can expect to it if you are to, to speculate. you know, if you know, once ukraine has been discussed, what are the areas of cooperation, do you think that president putin unseating thing would be looking to, to improve on and discuss during the, the 2 days next week where i think china basically supports a political settlement of the conflict between the parties and through by means of peaceful negotiation. so we can't really predict what actual steps that will be discussed and even published. we don't know,

these are behind door folks between leaders of the you know, the top top to countries. so we have to wait to see, yeah, it's not a problem for us to make any guess of course, no, not, not complete the future, unfortunately, nelson but see, i think the china is still not concerned about any possible functions or repercussions from the west over close ties with moscow. now, definitely not. i think this is also a clear message that has been sent out with regard to the, the upcoming visitor presidency to moscow. now, china's independence in its foreign policy and his handling of international relations is not going to be influenced or even monday, polite about you've been deterred by and a 3rd party. so that's also a clear message of this upcoming trip. well, now some longer vice chairman of the shanghai sense of foreign part and

international studies and evolved i club experts. pleasure as always to have you on the program. i'm sure you'll be on in the next couple of days during an after shooting pings, visits to moscow. thanks very much for your time. thank you. thank you. oh, from march the 20th to march the 22nd, we will be bringing new special coverage of china's leader shipping things visit to moscow, both owner and online. so do be sure to tune in for that. ah another news washington has announced under $50000000.00 in aid to africa,

sa hell region to fight local militants as the or sex your states and sees for day trips. ethiopia, amnesia, ortiz, africa correspondence trouble. a toddler examines whether the u. s. fear of losing influence in africa may actually be fueling its resurgence. u. s. secretary of state anthony blinkin is back again on the african continent, taking off his visit in africa's 2nd most populous nation. if you'll be wasting little time blinking hell talks with senior officials of the ethiopian federal government and the t grey regions lead us, but blinking his next stop proved a bit peculiar. he became the 1st us secretary of state to visit the j. a country in the for hell region which has been played by muslim extremists and other tara groups, despite their best efforts, various western lead missions in the for hell have failed dismally to quell the sensations. i'm your any yoga. and then on to the chair, to reaffirm a pledge,

the present vibe made with u. s. africa leader summit late last year. but miss united states is committed to deep, responsive, and genuine partnerships on the continent. because we believe we cannot be solved sure. challenges and deliver on the fundamental aspirations of our people if we work together. but the us may be making if african return already on the back foot of his 0 political adversaries, china and russia. the yanks were militarily present in this a hell. while the extremist and terror groups grew in confidence and even successes leading neeagin's neighbors. molly, end with gina fossil to cancel all military cooperation with western countries in favor of co operation with russia. and while the united states was losing the battle against tara elsewhere in the world, it was china that led investments 20 j as part of its belt. and roads in africa

initiative. china has made significant investments in the day. so does the american government one to be in the j, already having failed the sa hell region is security or investments. the mission is clear as mud. it even confuses senior american politicians in the senate. i didn't know there was a 1000 troops in the year. this is an endless war without boundaries and no limitation on time and geography. we don't know exactly where we're route in the world militarily and what we're doing, but perhaps the american resurgence is not led by what's image here, but rather what's under it, leg of neighbors does i, how country is blessed with mineral resources and it's too significant uranium mines provide nearly 5 percent of the world's outward from africa's highest all. busy of uranium,

what we know for certain is that americans are led by fear of losing grounds to their adversaries. and that is fueling the resurgence end is rebranding one. no continent before the month of march ends. the by the lead ministration is stepping up. the african agenda, and if activities, there are 4 important toys in the month. and another military exercise vice president carmella harris will touch down on the continent before the month ends as well. and the big crescendo will be president, jo biden's visit to the continent later on this year. the question is, will it be before or after august when south africa hose, the brick summit in the port city of durban, where china's and russia president, cheesy ping and vladimir put it will also be on african routes. animal

is, has a flat. he transferred to russia now where 2 people have been injured after a vehicle drove into a building in st. petersburg, wanting some for years. my find me find the falling footage, disturbing this video. you can see the moments when the s u. v drove right into a service station, crushing through the wall and right into a desk with employees and customers inside. according to authorities, the driver suffers a stroke, leading to a sudden loss of control. he was taken to hospital and reports to just that one other person was injured. disastrous war in iraq, which left a trail of destruction and a 1000000 people dead passes its 20th anniversary arts. he's continuing a special coverage of that conflicts that through the oil rich country into chaos and destabilize the entire region for years to come. ah,

well 20 years ago to the day george w bush made the decision to oust then iraqi leader saddam hussein by force saying that he had to give up power and leave the country all face attacked by thousands of us and allied troops. saddam hussein and his sons must leave iraq within 48 hours. their refusal to do so will result in military conflict commenced at a time of our choosing. should saddam hussein choose confrontation? the american people can know that every measure has been taken to avoid war. and every measure will be taken to when it would, despite bush's promise to take every measure, to avoid war, his ultimate decision to invade iraq through the country on the wide region into chaos. displacing millions and killing hundreds of thousands of civilians, of us invaded iraq under the pretext of stopping the danger for mr. legend weapons

of mass destruction saying that people attempt to be solved by god had failed. let's despise un. inspectors reporting no evidence of weapons of mass destruction in iraq judge bushes ultimate him came out of the u. s. u. k. spain found a joint draft resolution seeking military action. but 2 days later us on this allies attacked iraq without un approval of the world is better off without saddam in power. george bush, his words were backed by former british prime minister, tony black, driven by desire regime change. the u. k. decided to join us forces in toppling the iraqi government. an lation chaos in the country. ortiz marina course of the story . once a years after the us led invasion of iraq and one question remains, could it have been prevented? while the answer seems to be no, because it was a plan all along after 911, it was payback time for america. and the hands for state sponsors of terrorism was

on after i've gone to stone, iraq became the next target. and the british prime minister, tony blair, became george bush's accomplice. all that was missing was an excuse to invade. well, here in the declassified letter, we can see how blair tells bush that he's with him no matter what, as in still support him and removing saddam hussein from power. i will be with you . what's heather? getting rid of saddam is the right thing to do. he's a potential threat he could be contained in another secret mamma, where told that the pair were concocting a p r campaign on how to sell the iraq war an entire year before the us invaded to pay him said we needed an accompanying payoff strategy that highlighted the risks of saddam's w m d program and his appalling human rights record bush strongly agreed to pay him said this approach would be important in managing european public opinion. and in

helping the president constructs an international coalition, the p. m said no one could doubt the world would be a better place if there were a regime change in iraq. what's war? they had a strategy in case that saddam hussein actually gave you a weapons, inspectors free reign to check on everything. the p. o late, a commented to me privately that had spoken again to bush about the issue of un inspectors. bush and acknowledged that there was just a possibility that saddam would allow them in and go about their own business. if that happened, we would have to adjust our approach accordingly. so they didn't even want full transparency. that is pretended to wanted, hoping iraq's leader would say no. and that would be enough to topple him. well, september 2002, tony blair's infamous claim. the intelligence picture they pink is one accumulated over the last 4 years. it is extensive detail and authority.

it concludes that iraq has chemical and biological weapons that saddam has continued to produce them. that he has existing and active military plans for the use of chemical and biological weapons, which could be activated within 45 minutes. 45 minutes really sounds fake. well, it turned out to be, which was confirmed by british weapons expert dr. kelly to a b. b, c, journalist, it was transformed in the week before it was published to make it 6 here. the classic example was the claim that weapons of mass destruction were ready for use within 45 minutes. that information was not in the original draft. it was included in the dorsey against our wishes, because it wasn't reliable. most of the things in the dossier were double sauced, but that was single sauced and were belief that the sauce was wrong. this fiasco

even made it to the parliamentary hearings, which is where doctor kelly's name was revealed as he was asked to give evidence on what he knew. 2 days later, the man who set the british government sec, stop iraq's w m d. dosier was found dead and 10 years after saddam hussein was hanged, they rock inquiry known as a chill cut report, revealed that the so called the rocky dictator, posed no eminent threats at the time of the invasion. and that the war was fought on the basis of flawed intelligence. the spotlight was now put on george bush and tony blair, with some calling for the pair to be prosecuted and even take in their case to court. saddam hussein had no post in the may get thread to the interest of the u. k . the intelligence regarding the weapons of mass destructions was presented with unwarranted sentence. he, the invasion was not necessary and the invasion had been undertaken without the

authority of the one security council. what's the attempts made to prosecute mister blair failed as the u. k. court ruled that there exists no crime under english law, which the former prime minister could be charged with. and the international criminal court said that the decision he made to go to war in 2003 is beyond ever met of investigations. and that's it. i apologize for the fact that the intelligence we received was, was wrong. the program in the form that we thought it was did not exist in the way that we thought over a 100000 civilian iraqis, killed many more displaced, british and american soldiers dead for no apparent reason. and this is what they get. oops, sorry about that. and what was the plan for the country after saddam hussein? well, they didn't care, as was revealed in a secret memo, ands of what that they care about iraq's oil reserves. and they were discussing it

before the war even began declassified documents states that the british government was encouraged to start preliminary work to ensure you k companies are well placed to pick up contracts in the aftermath of the war. by way of specific follow up, we should convene a meeting with b, p shell, and other appropriate u. k. companies, whether together or separately to explore ideas and tap into the expertise, we would need to handle this carefully and assure it was confidential to avoid charges of oil motivations. so preliminary work to ensure you k companies well place to pick up contracts. in the aftermath. this is all in the public domain, it's been swenson years and still no one has been held accountable. a country was destroyed, a president's was basically assassinated and those who did it aren't behind bars. no, but lecturing all those on war and peace. the bad guys got away,

unbelievable. lots. he will continue. it's coverage of the legacy, the u. s. left in iraq to after the own promotes invasion throughout the day. so do stay chewed at this hour. american and coalition forces are in the early stages of military operations to disarm iraq, to free its people, and to defend the world from gray. with food and sleep with

finally to the phone line in the ukraine war now where drones on the technology continue to play a crucial role in russia's offensive arts eagerness done. it takes a closer look. a focused guy with a controller, a silent audience, glued to the small screen of the remote. this isn't a scene you expect to observe at the front line of conflict, the claims hundreds of lives a day. but it's hard to find a stereotype of the war in the dumbass hasn't broken these or rushes front most positions in the criminal forest. there's literally nothing between us and the ukrainian soldiers, but the no man's land, the so called gray zone. they're telling us that it's a war of drone, so it's better not to stand under the open sky for too long. this is the we're, we're right of the frontline, the enemies just 200 meters away. the situation is very difficult. the enemies showering us with strikes were firing back. in other words,

were pulling our weight. it's a war of drones. we use tons of modern equipment from line without drones. it's impossible to imagine these days. there's a plethora of variables, drones, spouses have to factor in the woodland narrows the radius the signal can travel electronic warfare, and jamming is a major issue to so the have to get close to the enemy to be effective ah without them mortars, how would says tanks are blind as if in a game of battle ships, and they cover the advance of strike teams here when foot soldiers capture a trench there only half way through there. a gamble with death nor the vegetable

just so that the deal. our task is to hold out here for another 2 hours until the loo, ganske republic forces come in, or the ukrainians know their trenches. we don't care because there is a whole army of us volunteers, regular soldiers, special forces. men here are from different divisions, each with their own chain of command, but they strike as one. they've learned the hard way that it doesn't matter how much you are of the marks. man. if you don't operate as a single organism with others, if you want to win, no matter what, i'm a gosh darn of reporting from the dumbass arc. see, was the main stories for this. i would do head over to our websites, r t dot com or our social media pages for more on is peter scott for the buck again within the rundown of all the latest at the top of the allen texas.

ah, slowly but surely. legacy media support of the west warren russia is changing. ukraine is not winning, in hardly likely to win in the in propaganda is at times powerful but hard. cold facts eventually trump fables written by the elite mediocre scribes ah with
