skulking championships in india with 9 pm on saturday. the 18th of march, and this is an international coming to you live from moscow. great, happy with us this hour. now russia is celebrating the night anniversary of crimea rejoining the country with vladimir putin visiting the city of 7 stop. all the russian president drove his own vehicle to the event where he took part in the opening of a local all school and children center together with the cities governor. they came as a surprise, as it was originally planned, that it would take place to virtually i think classified ca documented, reveals washington had plans to start a conflict with moscow through an invasion of crimea as far back as 957. it's not been almost a decade since the crimean referendum brought the peninsula back into the russian
2:02 pm
fold and occasion that russian president vladimir putin, marks by promising to protect the region at all costs. deviously written as it continued e. she was stupid, 9 years ago the residence of crimean some estoppel made their unambiguous and final historical choice to again and for of a more become part of our big united country is obvious that for crime in some estoppel issues of security are of high priority especially today, but it, we will do everything to stop any threats. you'll, in the few of the way, 9 years ago, crimea voted to reunite with russia despite much protest from kiev and the west, which continues to this day. but this price peninsula was in washington's cross hairs for a lot longer. that just about a decade way back in 1957, the cia prepared plans to divide and conquer. what was then soviet ukraine featuring a report that divided the republic into 12 zones of varying potential support for us forces in the event of an invasion. ah,
2:03 pm
2:04 pm
a conclusion then, and now much of western ukraine views collaboration with the u. s. favorably done boss and crimea, not so much. in 2 areas of the ukraine, the local population apparently hold few grievances against the regime and probably would not assist special forces. the 1st is the crimean peninsula, which has historically been a part of russia being incorporated into the ukraine, only in february, 954 when it was transferred away from the rest of us are the 2nd area with a population strongly loyal to the regime, is the don bass, don bass is the center of heavy industry and mining in the ukraine. and apart from the crimea is the least ukranian district and its population and national character . ukrainians are a minority in the don bass, and those who live there are mostly urbanized frequently speak russian, and in many cases no longer consider themselves ukrainian cartucker than a desa. we're not far behind those regions in terms of anti western sentiment. and
2:05 pm
lo and behold, they had formed their own independence movements during euro, my dog, both of which were crushed by the ukrainian government. the 957 ca report put certain regions west of lou ganske into another category entirely where specific support was to be expected. but the most anti soviet area was designated zone 8. these were areas where pro nazi and nationalist sentiments were high. and the us expected the least resistance, and that also happened to be rich in natural gas. ah, few noticed this document when it was classified in 2017, but it does reveal a few important facts. the u. s. has long been looking to get its hands on ukraine . it's long been trying to sabotage russia and until recently, it essentially recognized on boss and crimea as russia in the u. s.

former president times 2024 republican hopeful donald trump has called the public protests. that's author claiming that he will be arrested next week posting early on saturday morning on his media platforms. truth social trump point to report was about the possibility he could be arrested on tuesday. and americans to quote, take on nation back. however, 2 hours later, trump spokesman clarified that the politician had not written his post with direct knowledge at the timing of any arrest. this comes as a manhattan court has reportedly preparing to indict trump, but the charges have not been made. public ortiz marina cause of explains, there is no reason that he mentioned why he believes he will be arrested next week, but he didn't make some claims regarding so called ongoing leaks in the media there . regarding one of his cases, he's facing several ongoing investigations that are being done against them. not
2:07 pm
only in new york. there's also in georgia, for example. but this one in particular is the one that involves are so called hush payments to a stormy daniels, the point star and the 2016 presidential campaign. this is what we're talking about . and apparently donald trump, for some reason he has information. and also we're know that there's the news reports in the media in the united states, claiming that the manhattan district attorney has been making conversations with law enforcement authorities in new york city. preparing for what would happen in case donald trump is indicted in this ongoing investigation which where expected results in the coming weeks. so maybe this is what donald trump is referring to and he's expecting why they're planning something. why the plan and extra security potentially is something going to happen? will they arrest me? so a little bit about that case, in particular, the money that we're talking about, his attorney at the time who handled the payment. now he pled guilty in 2018. there
2:08 pm
were federal charges brought against him, but donald trump was never charged regarding his role in all that. so this is something that they're looking into it again. and this, once again, this is along with all of the other ongoing investigations that we know regarding donald trump. so this is what we're seeing now. and he, of course he went to events where does donald trump lifes, events online as well? but this time it's not twitter is used in his own social media platform and he's urgent supporters to come out and support him, go out and protest. and this is water authority. there are some local sources are concerned about because we saw what happened last time. he went on social media urgent people come out. this was in, i'm sure you remember right after he lost the presidential elections and he went on twitter and then we saw what happened. they saw him congress. and this is what local authorities are afraid of. now that he's posting and bouncing a line, so we'll see how this will turn out and will he be arrested? will he knox?
2:09 pm
as a political commentator, unblocked david fry. hi to drew parallels between the latest developments on the january 2021 riots in washington. whether or not january 6 was a set up in the technical sense. it was facilitated. it was allowed to happen. we now know from the trials of the oath keepers and the proud boys. we know that the f b, i had infiltrated plans of seditious conspiracy. india, legit or perpetrators and yet then claim to not have had any advanced warning of january 6th. they knew what was going to happen, arguably, allowed it to happen and possibly, and probably had instigators or as all provocative in the crowd to make sure that it did happen. i don't know why the deep state and politicians in america or so bloody afraid of trump if they think he has no chance of winning the next election . but their fear and their attempts to basically politically take him out. and then politically weaponized that to ban any of his proto supports, protesting. i mean,
2:10 pm
they've got to be scared of something legitimate if they're going out of their way . so much though to do this seems like planned destruction plan demolition. come out with these charges royal everybody up because they are so preposterous politically motivated and then maybe have someone trigger something in the protest to then say, trump bad trump arrested protest the legal in america now the disastrous war in iraq, which left a trail of destruction and a reported 1000000 people dead is coming up on his grim 20th anniversary. we're bringing to our special coverage of the conflict there through the all rich country into chaos and destabilize the region, figures to come. ah, the invasion of iraq was based on a monstrous lie, as how rushed as deputy and void to the un has described the devastating actions by
2:11 pm
us troops on their allies committed. 20 years ago, dmitri polanski drew attention to the lawlessness of the u. s. bombings saying that russia will once again raised the issue at a un security council meeting. on the 20th of march the same day. the invasion began. no one has answered for the severe consequences from the invasion of iraq. the entire region of the middle east has not recovered until now, but the notorious rules based order, or rather lawlessness in the interest of the united states and his allies has strengthened. 20 years ago to the day, george w bush made the decision to oust the ben iraqi leader. saddam hussein by 4 was saying he had to give up power and leave the country or face attack 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?
2:12 pm
the american people can know that every measure has been taken to avoid war. and every measure will be taken to women. well, just by george bus, she's promised to take every measure to avoid war. he's also a decision to invade iraq through the country on the wind, to region, into chaos. displacing millions and killing hundreds of thousands of civilians. that's now across it to a totally msn deputy head of the press office at the russian embassy in the us. to discuss this further, many thanks for joining us on the program. this evening is good to see a. so you've written about column pals track record. he was, of course, the money notorious they claim to you and that iraq had weapons of mass destruction 20 years ago. why do you think the american public bought it at the time? making sense to vote. thank you for having me. it's great to be here. well, i can say that started to address the question to the american public,
2:13 pm
but i believed that band there was mass and take iraq is terrier in the media and that's why lots of americans bought it. you've also written a pace on call empower, involvement in the us my lai massacre during the vietnam war. what sparks your interest in that particular incidence. my interest is that colin powell was one of the investigators that my line master. and according to his reports, and i quote, indirect taishan of this portrayal is the fact that relation between american division soldiers and the vietnamese people are excellent. and i want just to refresh your memory that we are talking here about slaughter of more than 500 civilians, women and children by the u. s. army. and those
2:14 pm
assessments made by colin powell are believed to white wash that horrific tragedy and proves that he is completed in the my lai massacre cover all wasn't and of course only charge 2014 offices over the my lai massacre. and only one of them received a sentence which was late to commute it. what does this tell us about the american sense of justice and about colin powell himself, he was one of the investigators all that will crime what need to that can tell you about the american sense of justice or that would say absence of it was $22.00 offices, the tory, commanded to be charged with criminal offenses. only 14 were charged. all of them were acquitted except for the tenant william calling. it was personally char, a was personally a chill in 22 civilians and given life time
2:15 pm
imprisonment later, it was reduced to 20 years and then to 10 years. and she was eventually cool by richard nixon in 9 to 74. and once again, i'm calling polls lies bore troops, only one person was found guilty. and that terrible and horrific massacre revelations of american atrocities in vain, i'm forced to elemental reckoning back at home at the time. there was a huge backlash from the public, but new alleged crimes were committed in iraq 35 years later. why do you think the lessons were apparently failed to be learned by the u. s. as they say it ain't broke, don't fix it. for as long as the system worse, why change it? and so if you find years later, colin powell was, lies subtracted the whole nation to bombings and ships on february on the
2:16 pm
5th of february, 2003 at the un security come still calling power accused wrong. creating weapons of mass destruction the so if you supposedly contain in sex powder, i believe you remember that thing that you did and own 20th of march, 2003, the united states and its allies launched an, an invasion of iraq which was done in violation of the un charter and international law under the false, protects, to destroy those weapons of mass destruction. is there any sign that the u. s. is prepared to change? how is these it's missions and it's role in the world today? there are no, there are no signs that the united states of america is going to change anything at
2:17 pm
all. ah, what can be done are from alcorn to pew east that we can start from building a multi polar world older that will be based not on the roots that benefit the united states of america and their site kicks. but rather that system will be based on international law that favors everyone in order not to repeat erotic tragedy. when it's legitimate president, saddam hussein was toppled and later executed. and the whole nation i experienced years of internal military and political conflict. i coming back now to the invasion of iraq is coming up here 20 years since that invasion is bringing the whole situation back into focus. do you think they'd be alleged or crimes off that
2:18 pm
conflicts have also gone on punished basically the on because washington consistently disregarded international committee, retro reports about inappropriate and cruel treatment for roger prisoners as well as the united states turned a blind eye to humorous western and g o z reports include in human rights watch about systematic killings, torture and rapes, perpetrated by the u. s. service personnel. the americans tried to hush up everything including torture at the album, rape, and can boot prisons. play, like i said, has been 2 decades since the invasion of iraq and the disastrous legacy that follow . do you believe that the new emerging, multi polar, well daughter would help prevent such tragic events from happening again as i've already sat there, that is one of the way to stop and to prevent americans from committing
2:19 pm
ah, new crimes. one of the solutions to that is to build a multi polar world or once again based not on the rules, but based on international law that will benefit everyone. thank you so much for speaking to us today. i really appreciate your time and you are in 5 in talking to you on a tell him and he and deputy head of the press office at the russian embassy in the us. thank you. thank you for heaven. and as the 20th anniversary of the us invasion of iraq approach is a national coalition of anti war organizations and iraq war veterans hold a rally under the slogan, say no to endless walls. there is an attendance one piece in ukraine for negotiations to start on the dismantling of nato. follows a rally last month in washington called rage against the war machine. why similar
2:20 pm
demands were. the voice was to discuss the event last class life with human rights attorney down kovachick, who's at the rally. now don, many thanks for joining us on the program this evening. could you tell us more about the rally and the general message that yes, 1st of all, there's about 5000 people here from all over the country. the main message is to end the endless wars and to ask united states government. we are in front of the white house to start funding human needs in the united states, you know, to put money towards education, health care towards poverty alleviation, and to stop funding the war machine. that is the main message here today. and you say demonstrations like this happening more frequently or growing in size. the tool i think so, i mean, is people talked about today, this is really the birth of a new piece movement that we desperately need as you know,
2:21 pm
20 years ago in the run up to the war in iraq. yet record demonstrations around the world against the war. but once that war started, the peace movement really went dorman, and really has been dormant for the most part for 20 years. and this is the re emergence of all these i see will protest guessing any attention in the western media that down i would say it's getting saw. it's not getting the attention it deserves. i think they'd like us to go away and they want ignores, but it's impossible to do. i think we'll get more and more press and. busy more and more attention time goes on in your opinion, on what needs to be done by the u. s. public. in order to encourage the government to promote paste talks rather than push for more weapon is ation. what we need major disruption. we really need to be in the street to send a message that were tired to these floors, these floors that have cost. i believe since $911.00 of cost is something like
2:22 pm
$6.00 day trillion dollars. when people in this country are suffering from body and from hunger and lack of care, people need to show that they need to really disrupt the system. down can you draw any parallels between these and he will gatherings and those of the vietnam war going back a little bit in history now. yeah, i think we draw a lot of our example and strings from those protests which were huge, which really transformed american society ways. and we have the same goal to transform the society again to make it a more humane society, not only towards other countries around the world but towards you know, the people that live in this many thanks for joining us on the program. really appreciate it. as don cavallo, human, and they provides lawyer who's at the center of that rally that in washington, d. c. thank you. thank. now in the austrian politician has called
2:23 pm
on sir b or to demolish memorial to children, killed him and nathan, the bombing campaign of the country and 999. the officials say the monuments encourages anti american antique nato sentiments as long as serbian and sadly, even some austria, politicians from the extreme left and right endorse such hateful distortion of facts. it's clear, austria and serbia remained the cradle of european anti americanism, and anti nato sentiment by call to remove this monument. immediately the memorial. t savvy and children killed during 3 months of the nato bombing campaign commemorates while belgrade cools aggression against the country. in 1999, a memorial day picks a 3 year old girl, one of the youngest vixens killed during the error rates. she was one of $2500.00 civilians killed during the nato campaign which was carried out without the approval of the un security council to day those who survived the bombing se cbs will never forget. neither of them what i mean,
2:24 pm
and we will never forget their imperialistic aggression towards serbia and the serbs. and they will never succeed in trying to brainwash us so that we change our minds about them. they ask us to remove our monuments to they can hide their trace in their role in it because they are the ones who committed the aggression. oh, we have probably spent too much time thinking about all sorts of bare crafts from the e. u and their messages, those demands will not be fulfilled. and serbia it is not going to happen. a portal for the me poke major. we will not do this and we shouldn't do it because we don't want to destroy the collective memory. we have partly because of them in the 1st place. those monuments represent symbols of resistance to those who ask us, take them down and a warning to future generations to not succumb to ultimatums. tell me, do they build monuments to their loved ones? they lost. so what so strange when we do the same for our loved ones who died in aggression which they led in 1999 against innocent children. it's important to remember,
2:25 pm
so we all know what the nato alliance says and especially so something like that never happens again. i think that those who claim they are fighting for peace have actually delivered most harm across the world. and that's a fact the death of this child and other children is their footprint, which they left with their aggression, hulu. they can take away their morning months of the crimes they have committed all around the world. that are monuments, other rivers of blood, of innocent people, destroyed cultures civilizations and they ask us to give up martyrs. and heroes will never do that. sir. ben stood up against the western world, but against criminals and murderers. it was not my get and against serbia. is important for children to know what was stood up for. what did it for them? we fought for them. proud lynn honorably said the people have not forgotten and will keep on fighting a thousands to the streets of belgrade to protest europe. santa normalized ties with the south proclaimed republic of cost of that proposal comes from france and
