ah, a robot must protect its own existence with a, as americans placed their tactical nuclear weapons on their allies, territory, and train crews and pilots to use them if necessary. we have decided to do the same plot of mere potent ounces. brush will deploy tactical nuclear weapons to bela ruth, he says, muscle will retain control of the arms. the central american nation of undress establishes, ties with china after breaking off decades long relations with taiwan. and the west is fully aware of the negative consequences that depleted uranium ammunition causes to human health and the environment that's according to moscow who slammed

the u. k. plan to supply here with radioactive show, with good afternoon for martine or national studios in moscow. and welcome to the weekly with the hour and week stop stories worldwide. i'm fiorella is about great to have you with us. to our top story. russia will station tactical nuclear weapons in neighboring bella, ruse in response to the deployment of american nukes in europe. that's the announcement from president, what am you're putting in his latest interview? but this missy i so wish. brett president lucas shanker, was right. when he says that bella roost is our closest ally, as americans placed their tactical nuclear weapons on their allies, territory, and train crews and pilots to use them if necessary. we have decided to do the same without violating our obligations that we continue to meet in terms of non proliferation of nuclear weapons. we have already a sister, a bell,

russian colleagues in refitting their planes. 10 plains are ready to carry such weapons. we have already sent are well known and efficient iskander systems which can carry such weapons. beginning on the 3rd of april, we will start to train crews, and on the 1st of july, we will finish the construction of a storage facility, specifically for tactical nuclear weapons on beller russian territory. we will not hand over the weapons to bela bruce just as the u. s. doesn't due to its allies. we're simply doing what they have been doing for decades. vladimir putin also discussed the north frames sabotaged. he pointed to statements from russian experts that a device found near the pipelines could have been used to transmit a signal to set off the explosion. the russian leader also spoke on political matters, recalling his recent meeting, wishing, paying and moscow as a productive unpleasant affair. earlier we spoke to former pentagon security policy analyst, michael maloof, who discuss what the president said in the interview. i think the just,

the deployment response is in a response and kind to appeals by, by putting repeatedly to de escalate. and all he's doing is bringing parity, some semblance of parity and indivisibility, if you will, because under the visibility, which was heavily violated by the west. you don't arm the, the west at the expense of the east, but they, they've done that. so i'm in visiting that, that bella ruth and the other members of the collective security treaty organization could become at the new warsaw pact if you will. in response to the existence of an expanded nato. and i see that evolving quite clearly now with the with movement of new nuclear facilities into bella roost. and that could be extended to the other members of the c s t o.

they have an article for which is equivalent to nato's article 5, which is natasha. on one of the attack on all. so this is a very interesting development. stringy interview president pooh nodded that western powers tried to disrupt negotiations with its chinese counterpart. that reaction came in response to reports that a 1000000 artillery shells have been sent to ukraine by western partners. that information was revealed the same day. he met with the chinese leader where the pair discussed meetings piece plan for the ukrainian conflict. during the meeting, the 2 side said the relations don't represent that military alliance aimed at other countries. the leaders also expressed concern over u. s. military and biological activities, calling for washington to explain itself is the ticket they get woocommerce, richie, 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. a 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 western efforts to isolate and to contain russia both economically and politically hit a wall today, as the chinese leader came out and said that not only was china happy about the record trade, that in our joys with russia at a 190000000000 turn over year, it'll increase that trade to a much greater figure by 2030. that is the plan voiced by vladimir putin and she jumping of china booth came out and loaded where relations are right now. they're at a historic height, they said the best they've been in centuries more than that of vladimir putin. and she jumping listed the various areas where they would work together,

build on those relations, and they're pretty much everything. their culture. there are trade business, financial services, as well as technology energy and much, much more. those countries optimistic about the future. the chinese also brought with them a plan, a plan for peace. a game storm lee is full, as we believe that many of the points of china's piece plan are similar to our views and can be taken in action for the peaceful settlement. when the western key of are ready to accept these, however, so far we see no willingness on their part. that men couldn't also during the press conference, told the audience that the various dignitaries, the delegations. what is the press that while he and she jumping up talked, vladimir putin was, was brief that the great britain, an official that had announced that they would now supply depleted uranium rounds to the ukrainian military,

the same depleted uranium that has been linked to countless deaths and birth defects, cancer in areas such as a rock where it has been used low even use it for the u. k. as an outs, not only the supply of tanks to ukraine, but also shells with depleted uranium. it seems that the west has really decided to fight russia to the last ukranian nodded words. but in reality, if all of this happens, russia will have to react accordingly. based on the fact that the collective west is beginning to use weapons with a new killer component or an old grand ambitious plans voiced by, by china. and by russia. the leaders of both, both saying that they stood for a multi polar world than that they would work to develop that world. and the various systems and bodies that govern it. a world based on, on rules and laws, in which china and russia were remain good friends. earlier,

my colleague research shade discussed a range of topics involving the chinese president's visit with a panel of guests from the west is clinging on to a unipolar world to whether or not beijing's proposed peace plan for ukraine will become a reality. the world is, is changing, it's had enough of the, let's call it from what it is, western arrogance. and it will start to form their own alliances in response to the deployment of western alliances, such as nato, the existence of which still defies any logic because the better lines are supposed to fight communism and protect the west from the ideological sprint. a and military spread, and it was countered by the war, so packets was promptly dismantled. and you know, chide china has,

has come to moscow with a potential piece proposal for the culprit in ukraine. a john kirby of the us national security council, formerly of the u. s, state department, john kirby saying washington is not interested about a possible seas far in ukraine, particularly if it's mediated by china. alex, why would washington be against ending the conflict? we've seen the collapse of their financial system over the last couple of weeks here. that truly shows you the power that washington really has nowadays, which is not much they're used to ripping up agreements. they're in to that apparently, and they're up to really no good on the international world wide, i would say diplomacy levels while the u. s. scrambling book, china is now gain partners one by one with their belt road initiative and through the belt road initiative, investing in other countries. they are once again building a relationship. that is what the world is up against. and i think it's, it's quite challenging for the u. s. he make a very good point, alex,

which i'll take over to, to benjamin chow now, because how, how do you think, benjamin, that, that the members of the bricks group of nations and i also african stay to how do you think they perceive the beijing proposed a piece plan. now we are seeing opposite trends and it will notice portray cam and noises can left like a less than a train of equalization which could tongue bad because equal seymour's as train and interests more segregated and worries becoming a more serious um, gain. ah, you know, people fall compton, we understand that, but it is quite unreasonable that the us now is full when the asking people to reject any piece plans on ukraine as you raised. right. that these, no, no, i'm currently at 20 the african country leaders here in moscow seeking collaboration. yet we se, and under kim, good exclusive cops in the name of democracy prog, notoriously. that was sent to china. and doris have established diplomatic

ties that for the central american nation and a decades long relations with taiwan, honduras is an important country in central america. the government of honduras chooses to stand with $100.00 and a $21.00 countries in the world recognise and undertake to adhere to the one china principal severe the so called diplomatic relations with taiwan, established diplomatic relations with the people's republic of china and undertake that. and yours shall no longer develop an official relations or official exchanges with taiwan. this is the right choice, that is in line with the prevailing trend and supported by the people. china highly appreciate that. the suffering of ties came after the 100 and foreign minister visited beijing. the honduran foreign ministry stated that it recognized taiwan is an inseparable part of the chinese territory. and china as the only legitimate government, the loss of relations with under as leaves taiwan with formal diplomatic ties with

just 13 states around the globe. taiwan in turn, accused the central american country of being lord by china, which is promising financial assistance. my elbow yet single pitching dungy, tie, one's ministry of foreign affairs, would like to warn beijing that it's attempts to lure our diplomatic allies with false promises. in order to squeeze or diplomatic space has seriously harmed the feelings of the ty. when his people and sped up the divergence of cross straight relations, check out our website, r t, dot com, to find out more about washington's efforts to exert its influence in on doris. by pressuring the central american nation to opt out of establishing ties with china. disease and no agriculture. the russian defense ministry has said that the west is well aware of the irreparable harm that depleted uranium causes to civilians and the environment as well as to ukrainian service men, but still plans to send the ammunition to ukraine. anyway. moscow calls the move,

the pinnacle of shamelessness. israel was to be renewed. thank you, barbara. the west is well aware of the negative consequences of the use of depleted uranium ammunition, despite the fact that the use of such munitions will cause irreparable harm to the health of the ukrainian armed forces and the civilian population. however, nato countries, in particular, great britain, expressed their readiness to supply these type of weapons to the key of regime nato has actually become an accomplice to horrific crimes ukrainians for nato, as we all see, are just expendable. no one cares about their fate. either in european capitals or across the ocean. the pinnacle of shamelessness was the recent reports about britain's readiness to supply the key of regime with depleted uranium ammunition. earlier british authorities announce that they intend to supply ukraine with depleted uranium projectiles, which work to pierce tanks and armored vehicles vladimir pin more and that russia

would be forced to respond accordingly. john kirby national security council spokesperson diminished the severity of london's plans, saying that the use of such arms is what he calls fairly commonplace. i mean, make no mistake in this is yet another straw man through which the russians are driving a stick of this kind of ammunition is fairly common place been in use for, for decades. the west has used weapons containing depleted uranium in europe during the bombing of former yugoslavia. according to an admission of the former nato secretary general lord roberts and himself, were them $30000.00 rounds of ammunition with depleted uranium were dropped on belgrade. serbian officials who this week marked 24 years since the beginning of the nato bombing say those numbers are actually higher use of depleted uranium in the balkans sparked number of lawsuits by those who participated in the operations

. including soldiers from italy, france, and the u. k. according to independent journalists do some pro brokovich and member of the serbian parliament meals, sponsor. the consequences for those involved were terrible. i know good consequence does add a your j a think that the bombing was simply unjustified. and therefore, the use of the plan deployed, did you, daniel, and cluster bombs, for example, was also unjustified that the consequences out a better. but although they have not yet been fully explored, especially when it comes to though you're a new home, as you imagine, certainly i can see with the continuous increase in the number of concepts in the number of mulligan diseases that research on that topic is being done. although it should, we also said and undermine that. natalie. is this some of the aging them?

some with asian dead. he says simeon nuns, samuel serbia, today is the number one country in europe when it comes to the number of people suffering from cancer. and this is the clear consequences of the bombings with depleted uranium. for hundreds of years. it will remain present in our water, air and soil, by giving ukraine such weapons. they will pollute the territory of ukraine on which many depend for food don't. i simply cannot believe when i heard the information that great britain is offering ukraine weapons with depleted uranium. russia is not serbia, russia, cannon will respond in a completely different manner. it is just simply unbelievable that the west is trying to drag every one into destruction. when they conduct their aggression towards the former yugoslavia, they used forbidden weapons. according to sources, saudi arabians, syria are set to resume counsellor services between the 2 countries. this comes

after a halt and diplomatic relations following re at back in the serene opposition in 2012. earlier our sister channel spoke with the prime minister of the emmonds national salvation government. he says, the power that western colonial states used to have has shifted to an eastern alliance slot hammer, aim chuckling zealand. currently, the power that existed in america in europe is being swayed to the east towards russian china. consequently, it is only natural for these 2 new super powers to be the focus of a wide range of interest throughout the world. this new eastern alliance that we are seen develop is by nations that are not colonial nations that are not ravaging, pillaging and exploiting other nations in south america, africa, or in asia. they do not practice colonial zation in other nations. the western alliance only seeks to steal wealth and extort a nation's natural resources. this is a good example of double standard culture possessed by european nations. european

politicians do not have the humanitarian morals and ethics to resolve the issues happening in the world. they distinguish between which refugees they like and don't like, and they distinguish between asylum seekers and nations. and those who are in need . they practice what can be categorized as a double character or double standard. they talk about not having enough resources to fund humanitarian aid, but on the other hand, they fund ukrainian government with money and weapons. imagine in just one year, 200000000000 dollars were allocated to the key of regime. while the rest of the world only received $20.00 to $30000000000.00 and funding, this is their policy with nations in the middle east. they deal and communicate with a leap, politicians of that nation, and conspire with them to transform the people into slaves. china and russia do not engage in such manners. how will our taste, if sweeney breaks down the factors that may lead to the end of washington decades long influence in the middle east? america's global domination is under threat as its road is

a world leader seems to be slipping out of its growth. a major breakthrough in global politics could see peace between us ally, saudi arabia and us enemy, syria, and harold, an end to navy, a decade of wool. but now, in a deal reported, he broke it by russia. the 2 countries are set to provide conscious services. and reopen their respective embassies with the us left out in the cold cash f m as little who was other than the source in the saudi ministry of foreign affairs reveal it. ongoing discussions have begun with assyrian ministry of foreign affairs commencing on what was circulated by some international media outlets. the source indicated, the discussions are underway between officials in the kingdom and their counterparts in syria about resume and the provision of counselor services. he came home on the heels of the announcement that china had brought saudi arabia and iran together with the pair agreeing to re stole diplomatic ties all to days of talks. relations

broke down in 2016 and worse and amid the devastating conflict in ukraine seen by some as a proxy war between the 2 nations, the reproach, one could see an end to fighting there and bring home to its people who had been bombed to the brink of the wolves worth famish in a century. bombs, of course, have been supplied by the u. s. as part of its destructive road in the region. the talks this time have fully combed through the merits of the disputes between saudi arabia and iran, and explored effective ways to resolve disputes. saudi arabia hopes that this will open a new chapter and bilateral ties under the architecture of a brotherly relationship. china has provided favourable conditions for rich and disagreement. this vivid demonstration of the basic policies and concepts of china's diplomacy, which includes the major initiative of building a community with a shared future from unkind iran firmness supports the relevant initiatives. russia

has also played a mediating role between turkey and syria. were the potential road map to peace, which could see the 2 countries presidents meet face to face. are sad, who met with vladimir putin a moscow earlier this month? has called on tokyo to end. what he describes as an coolers, occupation and support for terrorist groups. such meetings should be prepared with prior coordination and planning between russian, syria in order to be effective and achieve the specific goals that series expecting . it is in stark contrast to the u. s. approach and sylvia, which has seen miss all strikes and punitive sanctions described as an economic wall efforts to dislodge. i said have also included a $1000000000.00 cova cia program operation. timber sick of all funding and arming a mary out of syrian rebel groups. i'm washington is clear that it's still once regime change in syria, but washington's regional allies,

a welcoming serial back into the arab league, from which it was suspended in 2011. russia's relations with africa. i've also sent the us into a tailspin with vice president. come on, harris, the latest official sent to the continent on a charm offensive to counter russia. china influence and increase the pressure to bring africa firmly into the u. s. via of influence. but a true partnership with africa means that we talk about and consult on elements of chinese engagement on the elements of china's engagement that concern us, including in the technological, economic, military and global governance domains. obviously, we can't ignore the current you political moment. it's no secret that we are engaged in competition with china, and we've said very clearly, we intend to out compete china in the long term. we've made it clear we have real concerns about some of china's behavior in africa and around the world as

washington is focused on countering russia. china influence moscow and beijing. a moving closer together, sending shivers down the spine of the west. the crucial peace deals negotiated by russia and china, respectively show who is the driving seat and an emerging multi polar world, at least in the news. lucel's puzzles lu over all our interaction in the international arena is promoting the fundamental principles of international order and multi polarity, while russia and china show leadership brokering piece deals. the u. s. approach of gumbo diplomacy, bombing countries to smithereens, is seeing it become increasingly more isolated. the hypocrisy over concerns of chinese and russian aggression is clear to see. it seems a gullible bully is finally being brought to heal. as a new world order is emerging, bringing an end to western dominance 26 people have been killed and

dozens more injured. after a gigantic storm spawned at least one tornado and slammed the southern. you a states of mississippi and alabama report say a tornado stayed on the ground for more than an hour, and a path of destruction over 250 kilometers long. the foot it shows absolute devastation. in some towns, there is nothing left homes have been eliminated, leaving behind dest foundations trees were snapped, and cars were left totaled. rescue teams are currently working on the scene to search for anyone else who may still be trapped, while cleanup is only just beginning. since 1979 or on has been battling us sanctions which have affected the nation for decades. local say that life under the restrictions has dealt a blow to the employment and housing sector in particular,

making life for everyone. very difficult as to live with the external forces or targeting the iranian nation to achieve their malicious goals. with the help of god, they will not succeed. mostly the people are affected, but the government and the people are on the same page because our government is working for the people of your life. my shot people are badly affected in economic terms. of every young man wishes to have a good house in the car, at least a good job, but it is difficult due to international sanctions. the government is most effective, but people are part of the government. this, all iranians are targeted by these sanctions, who definitely the sanctions have affected us in economic and other sectors. of course, people are being affected. look, the basic facilities people have around the world. what we don't have that we are just living a poor life. went on with american sanctions, it has mostly affected the employment in housing sector stairs these days. prices have gone mad. look, i live in a rented house, getting older to i can't get a good job at this age and life is not good. in real terms. the government in the

authorities at the top or the target. but what about the people? what they have done wrong? what option is left for the people not to the 144 years ago, the u. s. and posed at 1st sanctions on ron aiming to isolate the country to destabilize the enforce regime change according to reports. as a result, iran was forced to rely on itself for domestic production and enhance its regional influence. and now the u. s. has finally admitted that they haven't achieved the results they'd hope for our sanctions on iran have created a real economic crisis in the country. and iran is greatly suffering economically because of the sanctions. has that forced to change in behavior? the answer is much less than we would ideally like. europe has also impose new sanctions on officials and organizations and turan for what a claims are unjust crackdowns on protesters. demonstrations in the country broke out last september, following the death of a 22 year old woman who was taken into police custody for allegedly improperly

wearing of a job. i was, as lonnie general director at the fars news agency says the west support of iranians contradicts extension policy. the united states has excessively use the sanctions against many countries, including iran. this excessive use from time to time has backfired because the most sanctions are supposed to change. sometimes a system somewhere or sometimes at least that behavior of that system. none of these let's say goals have happened v. iran. i can refer to 2 kinds of contradictions. when it comes to us on the wrong, on the one side, they're talking about the longer the talking to you wrong. but that the same time they are imposing sanctions and they are applying pressure against the country. this indicates economy in contradiction. the 2nd point is that they claim to be

supporting your raymond people. how can you support, let's say, ordinary people by imposing sanctions on the country. if they really want to support the people they can lift the sanctions. but because the primary call of the sciences are ordinary people, and this quite indicates that they are somehow their claims and their wards do not meet their actions. practices that are up on the hour and week top stories from all over the globe for the latest breaking news and updates head over to r t dot com. and be sure to follow us on all social media platforms. thanks for tuning in. we'll see back at the top of the hour. ah

mm mm mm. in hello and welcome to was a part time hours have always watched each other with a change of jealousy and has still it. is it inevitable? tennis recent diplomacy breaking a number of long count geopolitical assumptions, guaranteed to wait for a room where great means not only might is right, but also responsibility that comes with power. to discuss that i'm now joined by told me in just former ambassador to saudi arabia, investor, it's a great pleasure, a great honor for me to talk to you. thank you very much for time. thank you very much for being a ditch. you know, whenever i interview prominent indian thinkers on china, i always feel myself

a part of a lot, a triangle because china and india, so big and so close to geographically that i guess it's impossible for them to be neutral to was the child. or having said that, i wonder if china recently break through diplomacy, including the success in bringing the saudis in the rainy and do the negotiate negotiating table. is that want to be respected, particularly worthy of respect of di indian counterparts? i think you do deal to respect from the indian side any, any, any diplomatic initiative for more peace and stability in the least is to come to my order. and i see an order in bel coming or to what has been achieved in bringing a.
