could apply to your grade and need people for jo, quote quote, for to part of the screen configuration. toward winning journalist seymour hersh shares new details of the north stream pipeline sabotage, claiming germany as helping america can feel the truth with coming to you live from the russian capital. this is the r t international. hi rachel robins here with the latest news. welcome to the programmer. 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 military from the use of those weapons in iraq and yugoslavia. it's a shock. 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 in the 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 also been on the modem to play the uranium rounds have been previously used by western militaries against armor vehicles and tanks. thus, this by grave environmental and health concerns. russia's foreign ministry warned of the impact of using the ammunition through cheaply meaning shall, was depleted uranium destroying the current generations, but also future once these weapons have already been used in recent history, dane flaking in comparable damage, in contrast with conventional weapons that the also have a direct impact on human healthy the targets eliminations will suffer as well. those currently residing in the affected area as well as future generations. in

addition to killing people, these munitions also destroy the land where they affect the soil and the ground water for many years. they are glad it was incredibly strong words there, highlighting the potential long term impact on the use of depleted uranium in ukraine talking about the increase levels of radioactivity and 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 that occasion billions and 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 solo from beer as the nazi troops during the 2nd world war? do you understand why you were in such a hurry? because up to the use of shells was depleted, uranium the crop, if any, will only be poison. washington keeps on saying, save that, this conflict. 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. what are the long term consequences, steve of using something like this? well, 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 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 call to 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 betty 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 of about what happened to them. did it about my, their lover?

we didn't expect our 1st child to be born deformed before the u. s. 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's not just the united states and nato has admitted to dropping $31000.00 uranium bombs during its campaign. in yugoslavia and 90909 now more, more than 300 italian soldiers died as a result of exposure to the munitions that are 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 is a trojan horse of nuclear war and saying that it could slow to wipe out humanity. perhaps on 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 had previously claimed that chelsea depleted uranium do not even have highly 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. experts again have 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 of the west continues to violate international law acting with impunity, but it's the people and indeed the world that continue to suffer the consequences. the head of the russian delegation on arms control and vienna believes one is down flank of the deadly consequences of the use of depleted uranium is reckless and disturbing. they can say able to think, i accustomed to. yeah, and you're not to hear that the black is white and the white is black and it's normal, right? then the light is more, it's more reliable. it does with,

but nobody on them. i'm in the system to discuss what the concept that we had an intervention in the forum for security cooperation here. mean that 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 us. and i was here in the and i and i was a 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 increase, especially in children. i don't know why, but it's in their interest to say to say to pronounce against it, but i think it's the just the day. i afraid no. government says they don't want to make a contradiction 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 be express position, not open, just not to damage their own diplomatic careers that they're afraid of this very simple london. and that has a long tradition of a russia. you have 300 is history and the one over the gray. so petition 100 years ago says that the but it didn't feels uncomfortable when there is no. there are no conflicts in europe. it's easier to manage the situation. well, there is complex a conflict in europe. ah,

eritrea is seeking deeper ties with russia. that's the message from the countries foreign minister as he met with his russian counterpart. he also claimed the western partners are pending states against each other, citing the war and ukraine and tenders in taiwan as examples. let me take this opportunity tore a fear me, and it just principally position on the ukraine critics. a pretext that has suddenly sacrificing ukraine and niches people for the deposit, quote quote, for the department of destroying the regime for duration. just as if they one issue is being foisted as a pretext to bring the co holt janice peaceful delays may any means necessary including violent conflict. these irresponsible 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 galen rob 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 richard 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 or and his judgment is always. it is not acceptable because it depends on their own interests for their own sake, forget on in perish day. of course they blame,

etc. that his dead way, how to do things with them. 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 lie. and we need to tell them like a lever. i've 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 lab have 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,

luminous. 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 natal member countries and incites it to seek out far fetched pretexts, non existent facts in order to promote the agenda of the west watson. 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 of 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 an australian santander has slam canberra as a recent nuclear submarine deal with the u. s. and the u. k. claiming the move makes his country a slave to washington. $368000000000.00 on the

purchase of a nuclear powered submarines. the won't be delivered until i'm 60 all this deal for a long shot thus to the united states of america. removed the question in the minds of any of our regional ne, was as to whether when the united states says jump, we answer how high and would you like a back flip? so as part of the new trilateral archive, security pack between australia, the u. k. and the u. s. a fleet of new nuclear powered submarines will be developed for the australian navy. that moves said to be aimed at countering with the allies claim to be china's influence in the new pacific region. beijing has strongly criticized the contract and accused the western allies of setting back nuclear non proliferation efforts. the german chancellor aloft shows

help the u. s. government conceal the truth of the nor his dream sabotaged. thus, the latest revelation from award winning investigative journalist seymour hersh, who earlier said washington was behind the attacks on russia's gaps pipelines. 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 nordstrom to in the words of the intelligence community. the agency was to pulse the system in an effort to discount the claim that biden had ordered the pipelines destruction. 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 now that the nord stream to pipeline would be destroyed. and so now we have you as 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 article published wednesday by pulitzer prize winning journalist says that biden met with the german chancellor. and that they had a meeting to discuss putting out their own version of the dance to distract from hirsch's bombshell revelations. and basically it appears that meeting took place in early march. it was an 80 minute meeting between biden and the german chancellor, and which they decided they would come up with a new version of the 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 discredit. in your story, i was told by source within the american intelligence community, the disinformation professionals inside the cia understand that propaganda gambit

can only work if those receiving it are desperate for a story that can diminish or displace an unwanted truth. now you as mainstream media has not given a lot of attention or coverage to hirsch's rabelais since they have kind of led their audiences to look elsewhere and not highlighted this. now hers argues that this is because mainstream it in the united states is taking the lead from the white house and following the administration and trying not to point to what has been revealed. 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 a president who made an unwise decision and is now lying about it. now julian bars, who is the national security correspondent of the new york times, has been outspoken trying to make the case that indeed it was not the united states

that is responsible for the destruction of the nord stream to pipeline. he's been appearing on podcasts and going elsewhere, grasping at straws, trying to make the argument that despite what has been revealed, it was not direct action from the united states, a decision by the us government to destroy the pipeline. here's julian barnes. well, we started asking who might these sabbath tours b, or if we couldn't answer that, who might they be aligned with? right, could they be pro russian saboteurs? could they be other saboteurs? and the more we talk to officials who had access to intelligence, the more we saw this theory gaining traction. who and my

initial thought that this could be pro russian saburd tours, turned out to be wrong. and we learned that it was most likely a pro ukrainian group. oh, so in other words, a group of people who did this on behalf of ukraine. what, what do you learn that makes you think that's what happened? my god, i should be very clear that we know who really very little right. this group remains mysterious and it remains the serious not just to us, but also to the u. s. government officials that we have spoken to you as mainstream media seems to be very desperately trying to make the case that somehow the united states is not responsible. that seymour hersh bombshell revelations cannot be taken seriously. one thing that was pointed out in hirsch's recent article is that biden has not ordered any investigation and to the nordstrom to attack and the destruction of the pipeline. hersh argues that this is because by knows what happened. chairman at the german opposition group for german sovereignty and

constitution. ralph thomas near myer believes that the virgin bush by western officials and media is clearly out of place to no one believes. now the official version. i mean, everyone says no, it must have been de americans because mr. biden earlier in february and 22 said we have to stop at the mentor street to pipelines. well, it is, obviously, i call it rapids of mass distraction that's pronounced this way. and then it all makes sense because they don't want people to really question the legitimacy of our governments finding. i mean, the german government has done some investigation and they cannot share it, even with members of parliament. they can't they say to say raggedy next they say we can tell you what we found out because it's that damaging for a partner nation. they don't mention which one that this could do serious harm for the national security interest of some other nation. so we can all get to it as the german people we want to gas from not stream to. we want to have good relationship

with russia and we want to have peace, of course, and that is all about that. and mr. shots is not looking sovereign in his decision when he can be ordered to come to washington and get new artists. meanwhile, farmers in romania, guerria and poland risk being put out of business. it follows a search of grain and oil feet imports from ukraine, which were supposed to go to the poorest countries in africa. the european commission has responded by establishing a 56000000 euro fund to help those affected by crashing local prices are to contribute original mars it gives her take on the story. so the european union is having to bail itself out yet again. good thing that they have a seemingly endless supply of taxpayer cash to toss at the problems that they create for themselves. so it turns out that there's even more evidence now that all this talked about,

the desperate need to get ukranian grayed out of the conflict zones. who africans don't go hungry, was just a pretext to get more ukrainian grain in to europe. until recently, anyone even suggesting that was accused of peddling dis information. as far back as july of 2022 polish farmers said they were worried because 80 percent of the green coming out of ukraine was going through their country and at risk leaking into the polish market and depressing the prices of their products. but back then, the polish agriculture minister called any suggestions of ukranian grain ending up on the polish market, quote, information chaos, and the dissemination of false information. yeah, the problem was about as fake as the billions of euros that brussels is now tossing at it. this is support for the former is 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. target president ratio air

to one pointed out in january that 44 percent of ukrainian grain was being sent to europe. there's been so much of it going to spain that it's used to feed pegs and livestock there rather than people with the end result being that the country was able to hike its port exports by 25 percent last year, but with their own grains devalued as a result of the flooded 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 kia. 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. so apparently the farmers just don't have much of an appreciation for the

amount of time it took brussels to amass the massive piles of cash required to push in their policy disaster as it circle back and crash landed right on european farmers, the cash mountains. they've just announced our for poland, romania and bulgaria by hungarian and slovakian. farmers say they're hurting to. we have proven through statistical data figures that hungarian farmers are 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. exchange price of hungarian grain has fallen from $300.00 euros to $217.00 euros. but the e u denied hungry in slovakia is requests for assistance. brussels has burned so many holes and its own wallet that it now has to make cut, throw decisions about which of its kids get to eat and hungry as like their red

headed step child. all this flooding of the e with ukrainian grain could have been avoided quite easily. if brussels had just ensured that the food was going to it stated purpose that is feeding the world's poor. russian president, vladimir putin has been warning all along. that all of it was being mr. acted buick . why? she would what from august 1st 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. 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 the flood of ukrainian grain . and now that you was having to pay the price literally to the tune of billions,

yet another resounding policy success from the big brain bureaucrats in brussels. russia's defense minister has awarded state metals to serve as men for their efforts in the ukraine conflict among those honored were the su 27 pilots who prevented an american reaper drone from crossing rushes border last week to remote control, the aircraft formatted into the sea after attempting sharp maneuvers, washington claims it was the result of a mid air collusion. something moscow denies, as we might have a book or russian forces are said to be advancing into the last remaining ukrainian health areas of the gods. region ortiz acreage it on up sent us this report from outside the town of bello grove were keys. military forces are said to have deployed recently drafted troops alongside the regular army,

to try to hold the offensive. these are the veins that carry the blood of the wall in the dorm bass. trenches have scarred far and wide the once flourishing lands of the le ganske republic. here rushes reclaiming territories. that pledge of allegiance to moscow, the russian forces they've critically close then on the town of bella, gore of course, the only natural barrier between them and the enemy is this river little bit down that way. so obviously, the next task is to gain a foothold on the other bank. the town of de la garza is just over a kilometer away. our crew filled their last summer, but since then it fell under the control of ukraine. now, key of troops are hastily digging themselves in as the russian army advances back on the town from the east and the south.

any sentiment is alien to ukrainian commanders, if urban embankments, mine fields and trained soldiers is not enough to hold the ground. if they need more men, they get as many as they feel like and just throw them straight into the grind stones of war. the story of this ukrainian soldier captured outside bill, a gore of car, is one of thousands. the grizzly. gabriella guerrero poodle. no one explained anything with the order was not read out as it should have been. they just drove cal. they brought us near bill a gore of go into gully, where we unloaded them. they said to hide between the trees and wait for the command. when we got there, there was no supply, no food, no water, no normal amount of family nation soldiers. when the shelling began, the losses and wounded began later nothing got better,

and this obviously did not raise the morale if any one. the situation is galling for ukraine's troops here and on other parts of the front. even president zalinski normally oblivious to cray seas has admitted to this. does resorts on us one year lucia buccheri turf in the east, very painful. it is necessary to destroy the military power of the enemy. the enemy will destroy villa gore of ker and marina glen cove. jeffcoat and buck, most wiggly dirt and cameras, and all other places were a future is now being decided over a newsletter, a small set of soviet era apartment blocks just outside the nets. key of force is effected local residence to town. the place into a citadel military experts have been a buzz over ukraine's planned spring counter offensive. and indeed key of troops have already begun to pro brushes defenses in the south. yet with mounting pressure of the russian army elsewhere, ukraine's capacity to attack is bleeding badly.
