this is a limited time. ah, the fatality headlines on off teens and optional as moscow. the u. k is escalating the conflict by promising to send depleted uranium ammunition to ukraine . russia highlight of the devastating health consequences for civilians and the military off they've been used by the west in yugoslavia and iraq shooting thing wraps up is 3 david moscow saying that china and russia are leading the changes. the world hasn't seen enough pun reviews, pulitzer, winning journalist seymour hersh shares new details of the nod stream pipeline sabotage. he says, germany, it's helping america height, the truth and the

well, no shortage of news is we hadn't a wednesday evening here in moscow just off at 7 pm now. and a full program of your stories is set to go. so kicking off at this hour with the following, as moscow has condemned the u. k. move to supply ukraine with toxic depleted uranium ammunition. as a serious step towards escalating the conflict, the russian foreign minister pointed out the devastating long term health effects on civilians and the military from the use of those weapons. for example, in iraq and yugoslavia. it, sir, this is a step towards a serious build up of escalation city statements by western colleagues that it's okay, nothing is forbidden. we don't violate any conventions, but we all remember what consequences the use of depleted uranium supplies lead to in yugoslavia, iraq were tens of thousands of civilians and military personnel suffered from the use of this ammunition submitted on the modem. depleted uranium rounds have been

previously used by various western military. it's typically though against armored vehicles and tanks that despite grave environmental and health concerns, rushes foreign ministry, one of the impacts of using such ammunition food she play meaning it shall was depleted. uranium destroyed only current generations, but also future once these weapons have already been used in lisa history, they inflict in comparable damage in contrast with conventional weapons. but they also have a direct impact in human healthy the targets of immune nations will suffer as will those currently residing in the affected area as well as future generations. in addition to killing people, these munitions also destroy the land. they affect the soil and the ground water for many years. they are glad it was the incredibly strong word there, highlighting the potential long term impact on the use of depleted uranium in ukraine in talking about the increase levels of radioactivity in all the problems associated with that. now she said that depleted uranium could cause

a genocide for the population there, but she expressed concern that ukrainians not really fully aware of the potential impact of the use of such munitions on their territory. they're only being told da sir. the west is there to help them and is to bring prosperity to ukraine, but she described a propaganda operation. of course, there's only one news channel in ukraine. the rest was shut down by presidential decree following the special military operation on february 24th. let's listen to what she said. i mean you, when you my, you craniums are being told have the west is advocating billions in foreign currency to become a prosperous state. what billions they're ready to use. depleted uranium on the do you know, the poland began to export, fertile soil from deer, as the nazi troops during the 2nd world war? do you understand why you were in such a hurry? because after the use of shells was depleted, uranium the crop, if any,

will only be poison. washington keeps on saying, save that. this conflict in ukraine is about a battle for ukraine's future democracy. one might fear there's not much of a future if the whole line is going to be irradiated by the use of these are depleted uranium tipped ammunition shells, one of the long term consequences. steve of using something like this will of course, the use of depleted uranium on the battlefield remains a kind of a legal gray area, but it's still incredibly controversial. now the united states use depleted uranium perhaps most famously in the iraqi town or felicia, and that led to a rise of birth defects arising, miscarriages arise in kansas. now in 2010, you study by leading medical journal found a 38 fold increase in leukemia. now to put that into perspective, that's higher than the figures that were found in survivors of the rossimer nuclear bomb attack, of course, drop by the united states at the end of the 2nd world war. now i was there last

week i was in flu. i spoke to medics on the ground and they said it was undeniable that there was a cause link between depleted uranium on the defects and abnormalities that we've heard about. but what they also said was that they were placed on the extreme pressure by the united states not to speak out now. the 2010 report i just referred to, of course, bailey created a murmur in the, in the mainstream pricing. the western press meaning that the scandal of lou just being subjected to a cover up. but let's listen to what some of those people on the ground is about. what happened to them did it by my, their lover. we didn't expect our 1st child to be born deformed before the us invasion. children were rarely born with deformities in fallujah may be one or 2 cases out of a 1000 births. a year later, we decided to have another baby, but the 2nd baby was also born deformed, and my father was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 2021. they told us that he is

sick and feeling poorly. the reason is that felicia was a battleground from 2005 to 2013, especially in the district. we are living in. now of course, it is not just the united states, nato has admitted to dropping 31000 uranium bombs during its campaign in yugoslavia, in 190909. now more, more than $300.00 italian soldiers were of died as a result of exposure to the munitions they're involved in a court case against the military alliance. one serbian lawmaker who was involved in investigations and research found that the country's natural environment was damage. that was pollution to the air, the land, the solar and water. now, some experts have said that depleted uranium poses a major global threat describing the use of depleted uranium as a trojan horse of nuclear war and saying that it could slow to wipe out humanity. perhaps some surprisingly, britain has been among those leading opposition to cause for a band or even

a moratorium of the use of depleted uranium on the battlefield. britain who previously claimed that shell some depleted uranium do not even have highlight was levels of radioactivity than all the household goods. like microwave ovens, for example, and the defense ministry has defended its use of depleted uranium. once more, it's accusing russia of deliberately spreading this information and it insists that the impact on personal health and the environment is low, but of course, to do otherwise. otherwise would leave them open to war crimes charges. the world health organization has, however, expressed some concerns over the use of depleted uranium, but experts, again, it said that that body was also pressured into down playing evidence into the effects. and this is just simply adding fuel to those claims over cover up now the campaign for nuclear disarmament c n d has called for a moratorium on the use of depleted uranium and it's called on the british

government to instead fun studies into the impact of its use that said that, sending such munitions into a war zone, would not help the people of ukraine. we've seen statements coming in from across the world, expressing concern including from some african nations. and it's worth noting that the announcement, the prison was deploy, depleted uranium came at a time when chinese president teach him ping was in moscow discussing his 12 point piece plan 2 and the conflict in ukraine. russia has insisted that it remains open to negotiations, but the west continues to violate international law acting with impunity. but it's the people and indeed the world continue to suffer the consequences. earlier i was speaking to ahead of a russian delegation on arms control in vienna, and he says downplaying, the deadly consequences of the use of depleted uranium ammunition as a reckless and profoundly disturbing position to take they can see in the sink.

i accustomed here not to hear that the black is white and the white is black and it's normal bread. then the light is more terrible. it's more reliable. they think it's nice to discuss this issue. it's very serious issue, but nobody on them. i mean of the best ones to sit and to discuss what the consequences, etc. and we had an intervention in the forum for security corporation here. mean, because it's very dangerous it's, it's a dirty kind of dirty moment who had already seen the consequences of using this in the u. s. m, and i was here in the, and i was witness. they used it. i haven't seen the consequence in that time, but the started night and i was here and it was in iraq, a logical. this is a lung cancer center increased specially in children that i don't know why,

but it's in their interest just to say to say to pronounce against it. but i think it's just the bed frame. no government says they don't want to make a contradiction to it. took to go to the conflict to the, the position on lessons here and it's seen during the discussions, but the coolest. everybody understand it's necessary to do something. can they express position not openly, just not to them. their own diplomatic careers that says they're afraid of this very simple london and has a long tradition of to do make programs for russia, you have 300 is history. and there are one of the greater petition

100 years ago or but it feels uncomfortable when there is no, there are no conflicts in europe. it's easier to manage the situation. and then there is companies, a conflict in europe. ah, the german chancellor, olaf, sholtes has helped the u. s. government concealed the truth about the sabotage or the gnawed stream pipelines. that's another revelation from award winning investigative journalist seymour hersh, who earlier said washington was behind the attacks on russia's gas pipeline. i was told by someone with access to diplomatic intelligence that there was a discussion of the pipeline expos, a. as a result, certain elements in the central intelligence agency were asked to prepare a cover story in collaboration with german intelligence that would provide the american and german press with an alternative version for the destruction of north

stream 2. in the words of the intelligence community, the agency was to post the system in an effort to discount the claim that biden had ordered the pipelines, destruction i cross lateral corresponded areas. right? there are t is kaylee of muffin. caleb, good to see. you seem of her, she's been talking about this ever since. the 1st real revelation bombs dropped. he was saying we've got more to discuss. and here is just a little bit more dripping out. what else can you tell us? what else has been disclosed by mr. hersh, while the new article published wednesday by pulitzer prize winning journalist seymour hersh says that biden met with the german chancellor, and that they had a meeting to discuss putting out their own version of events to distract from hirsch's bombshell revelations. basically, it appears the meeting took place in early march with an 80 minute meeting between biden and the german chancellor, and which they decided they would come up with

a new version of a dance. here's what the article from seymour hersh had to say. it was a total fabrication by american intelligence that was passed along to the germans and aimed at discrediting your story. i was told by source within the american intelligence community, the disinformation professionals inside the ca understand that a propaganda gambit can only work if those receiving it are desperate for a story that can diminish or displace an unwanted truth. now the united states had been trying to stop the nord stream to pipeline from being completed had imposed sanctions and had threatened that if there was an escalation in ukraine that the nord stream to pipeline would be destroyed. so now we have us mainstream media going into overdrive trying to argue that actually the united states is somehow not responsible for the destruction of the pipeline. despite what has been revealed by hersh new york times is kind of outspoken. they came forward with their version of

events. here's what we've heard. the times reporters in washington were at the mercy of white house officials who had access to intelligence. but the information they received originated with a group of ca, experts in deception and propaganda whose mission was to feed the newspaper a cover story and to protect the president who made an unwise decision. and is now lying about it by darcy's our telephone for that. joining us live from washington. caleb, thank you very much for that. we'll be in touch soon. ah, now on the heels of the chinese president visiting russia and presenting a peace pan proposal for ukraine of the white house says that china is an ally of russia and therefore should not be taken seriously.

get woocommerce. we see the chinese russian ties have gone far beyond bilateral relations over the last 10 years, and all of crucial and vital importance for today's world order and the fate of mankind. our contacts and cooperation are advanced on the principle of friendship. our relationship is built on contributing to the progress of mankind. we guided by the print a technical glitches here. nothing is perfect in the new century madison, beijing is put forward as i said, a 12 point political settlement plan last month for the whole ukraine conflict that includes a ceasefire clause, a resumption of direct dialogue between the countries and the end of sanctions. however, president zelinski has complained that china actually ignored ukraine's earlier piece plan that has sent through diplomatic channels. this comes as president g has praised bilateral ties between russia and china, saying that both guided by principles of the un charter. and that the 2 countries are on the right side of history.

jet walk along the she, the chinese russian ties have gone far beyond bilateral relations over the last and years. and are of crucial and vital importance for today's world order and the fate of mankind. our contacts and cooperation are advanced on the principle of friendship. our relationship is built on contributing to the progress of mankind were guided by the principles in the un charter and a day to an unbiased view were always ready for peace and dialogue. we firmly stand on the right side of history. i count on continuing close contacts with president putin and on long term at china, russia relations gender. we heard from a couple of guests who basically said that the west is apparently nervous about the rising influence of china and rogers. the 2 countries continue to strengthen their relationship across the board. a great deal of false narrative in the west led by the united states sort of demonizing china, demonizing,

russia. this is as a reflex action kind of fear that the u. s. lead has many, it seems to be under siege and you can see that they are playing this false narrative in blackening demonizing, china over human rights office in jan over hong kong, over the walkway and even over tick tock. and then anything can be twisted to implied at devilish china set out to destroy the world. now the reality is far from the case. it is absolutely a fear of the emerging multi polar world that would put us in a 2nd place just one of many. so at this juncture, fear and panic is kind of driving that. remember, originally the u. s. wanted to make sure that russia and europe did not come

together, you're europe's manufacturing progress with russia's resources would have been, i threat to us gentlemen, economically. so unfortunately, what they've done is they pushed together china and russia, which is even more fearsome cooperation. and at this juncture, they're in a panic. this is r t international. and so could i have your company for this program live from moscow to a at a prayer now, which is seeking deeper ties with russia. that's the message coming from the countries foreign minister as he met with his russian counterpart hours ago in the southern russian city of sultry. he added the western partners of pitting states against each other, citing the conflict of ukraine and tensions in taiwan. as examples. let me take this opportunity to re offend me and it just principally position on the

ukraine. pretext, a pretext that has said to be sacrificing ukraine and needs his pupil for the deposit, quote, quote, for the puddles of destroying the russian federation. just as if they one issue is being foisted as a pretext to bring the co holt janice peaceful rice by any means necessary including violent conflict. these are responsible policies are in then getting humanity. they focused really on the mutual struggle. both countries are having against western una polarity and that's what sir gay la, prov meant when he said that bilateral relations between these countries were developing under modern conditions. now of course, defense co operation is essential to achieving that, as well as to protect regional stability and contradiction to the west's attempts to keep this region and chaos. now, i was also able to ask a question to the richer and foreign minister about a recent comments made by

u. s. secretary of state antony blinkin, who claimed that the richer in government had committed war crimes. in response, he said that that was an outright lie, a secretary of state. and his judgment is always in it is not acceptable because it depends on their own interests for their own sake, for their own interests. they, of course, they blame etc. that his dead way, how to do things with him. how do business with them and will always say that we say we tell them we don't accept it and we don't accept it because it is a life and weed that is the tim gallagher of also accused the west of attempting to use the issue of human rights to interfere in the domestic affairs of various

different countries. and so he also said that russia will continue to stand with a retro for the enforcement of the un charter. something that lab rob said the west violated when if disregarded the minsk protocols there were supposed to establish a cease fire in the don boss conflict before russia launched its special military operation. but so gay laughter of also said that this is just one of many acts that the west has taken in a long trend of basically breaking international rules such us as little nego illness. now the international criminal court is headed by a prosecutor who's a naturalized anglo saxon and who of course, fulfills the orders of his masters. which forbids this body to investigate needle member countries and incites to seek out far fetched pretexts nonexistent facts in order to promote the agenda of the west. so now there was also talk about a number of other areas of cooperation. both leaders talked or both foreign

ministers rather talked about deepening cooperation in the sphere of the economy, as well as in the sphere of education. for example, russia is planning to increase the quota of scholarships for a retreat. and students that are looking to study in russia yearly. so that's basically a rundown of the general topics that were covered here at the press conference and at the meeting that preceded palestinian officials are speaking out against television for going off. the journalists comes as israel is national security minister has banned the palestinian radio station from broadcasting in the country of the voice of palestine. well, now habits reached limited to the west bank and the gaza strip. israeli authorities say the measures intended to prevent support for terrorism. following the order of police in east jerusalem reportedly summoned 5 palestinian journalists for questioning well, an air above the general manager of the marcellus production company, which does work with the voice of palestine. he told us how the israeli government raided his company. he also said the mistreatment of journalists by authorities

goes against internationally accepted practices in ahmed, them of that unsafe yesterday in office a fall television company in the city of jerusalem, specifically in the baton in a district was rated by the police without any warrant i was summons for interrogation along with 6 other employees of the company under the pretax that it was forbidden to provide services for palestinian television cameras. a few months ago we cover events syndic nasa with colleagues, salam must rekey, they corresponded for posting on television. one of the ministers of the governments, and one of the members of the class sets of the recruits party, published a photo of us working in the closet, which should embody the democracy that they supposedly follow them. that there was the persecution of the correspondence on social networks, even comments with threats to kill them. israel's radical government ignores an international statements if it continues to treat journalists with racism,

which is completely contrary to all international laws, human rights, and freedoms of the media. these rarely government is trying to put pressure on journalism. what brings the truth to the world's exposing these railey governments false commitment to democracy as it tries to silence the voice of truth. and emma, by this comes amid original controversial statements made by several top, is really officials. while today, the israeli minister of national missions said that the gaza strip will be taken back despite any number of casualties. i believe that at the end of the day, the center of the disengagement will be reversed. sadly i returned to the gaza strip will involve many casualties. just as the departure from the gaza strip came with many casualties. but ultimately it is part of the land of israel and a day will come when we will return to it. now this comes on the heels of a israel's finance minister saying, quote, there's no such thing as

a palestinian nation. it doesn't have its own history or even language. well, the palestinian administration has reacted to that demand in the international criminal court arrest minnesota. well, i spoke earlier to ask draft. i'll at around you the full minutes of a palestinian prisoners who says that such rhetoric can not be accepted. i think this is the job to stay. i tell you because these, that i'm away from god because of the thing of it, this test and god. and it will be good for the factions to get back there if i, if i, i think that the israeli, normally that people come up to this tape lens was, is very extreme as well. i think they're extremely

crazy. thoughts and ideas brought to them to be blind. i don't see the situation of the farmers in romania bulgaria and poland risk being put out of business by a huge surge of serial grains and oil seed in ports coming from ukraine. the european commission has responded by pumping up a 56000000 euro crisis fund in response to crushing local prices that get more on this now and get the take on this multi contributor rachel marston, who's going to join us now here live on this program or not the international i. rachel, clearly concerns and brussels. if such a huge emergency fund is suddenly being drawn up. it seem a bit odd what, what can you tell us? well, lithography in union is having to bail itself out yet again. good thing that they have a seemingly endless supply of tax near tasks to toss the problems that they create

for themselves. so it turns out that this time there's even more evidence now that all this talk about, the desperate need to get ukranian grand out of the conflict zone. so africans don't go hungry, was all just a pretext to get more ukrainian grain into europe. until recently, anyone even suggesting that was accused of paddling dis information as far back as july of 2022. so last year, polish farmers said they were worried because 80 percent of the grain coming out of ukraine was going through their country and at risk leaking into the polish market and disturbing the prices of their grand but back then polish agriculture minister, hendrick coles kalsich is called any suggestions of ukrainian grain ending up on the polish market, quote, information chaos and dis, information, dissemination of false information. yeah, the problem was about as fake as the billions of euros that brussels is a now tossing at it. this is support for the former sh affected by the increase of

inputs from ukraine, not for the consequences of the war. we have reserve for the crisis reserve and we used to live 56000000 euros for the specific situation. service president, race at arrow on, pointed out in january that 44 percent of ukrainian grain was being sent to europe . now there's been so much of it going to spain that it's used to feed pegs and livestock rather than people with the end result being that the country was able to height is pork exports by 25 percent last year. but with their own greens, the value as result of the flooding markets, european farmers don't seem happy about their businesses being made unwitting martyrs for ukraine and pushed out of their own markets in order to keep the sales revenues flowing to keep in effect, prices in local regional markets have dropped, causing a significant impact on farmers income. the commission is not reacting swiftly enough. our members had already flagged the concerns about market disruptions last year. apparently,

farmers just don't have much of an appreciation for the amount of time it took for brussels to amass the massive piles of cash required to push in their policy disaster as a circle back and crash landed right on european farmers the cash mountains. they just announced are for poland, romania and bulgaria, but hungarian in slovakian farmers said they're hurting to we have proven through statistical data figures that hungarian form was or indeed incurring huge losses because of the grain going through the solidarity lane, staying and hungry. instead of reaching its intended destination, the commission made a political decision rather than a professional one. the exchange price of hungarian grain has fallen from 300 years to $217.00 euros on the exchange, but the you denied hungry and so vacuum request for any assistance on brussels has burned so many holes in its own wallet that now asked to make cut throat decisions

about which of its kids get to eat and hungry is kind of like the red headed step child. in this case, all this flooding of the e with ukrainian grain could have been avoided. if brussels had just ensured that the food was going to the stated purpose that is feeding the world's poor, russian president vladimir putin had been warning all along that it was being misdirected spirit or why she would do it from august. first 2022 to march 20th 2023, 827 ships left ukraine, of which only 3000000 tons of grain were sent to africa and 1300000 to the poorest countries in africa. and as i said, almost 45 percent went to well fed european countries, despite the fact that this whole deal was presented under the pretext of insuring the interests of african countries. so after banning russian fertilizer and energy, brussels also made its former struggle to compete with a full.
