ah, ah, economic terrorism, that's what a wrong for municipal us functions against his country as the of lives in moscow. these fleming republic of iran, in its handling of the situation, has paid special attention to the opportunities created by the sanctions and made the most of this to further the progress of the country. we believe that the sanctions policy is an effective enrollment and is a terrorist warranty. people, journalists say the american made a high powered search engine chance g p t. let's see, 2014 made an uprising and ukraine as a crew that washington had a 100 among others that's installed. contrast to the us now are saying that it doesn't seem to fit in other countries. i discriminatory violation of human rights

back to moscow is respond to the well, the olympic bodies refusal to reinstate brushes, national team, just trying to say if it's open for foreign investors like us senate us and it takes an opposing stand by considering a bill that was banned picked, talk to that, a national security with the fly, the white house with a very well welcome to the international with the latest world news that is great to happy with. a foreign minister is in mosca. if it talks on matters, including the iran nuclear deal, syria and afghanistan speaking to r t, the talk diplomat condemns the long run and us sanctions against his country. thing to run has managed to forge some new opportunities for progress pattern. why aren't american sanctions are perceived as a fail policy? and we believe that sanctions are an instrument of economic terrorism against

people somewhat. however, these slamming republic of iran in its handling of the situation has speed special attention to the opportunities created by the sanctions and made the most of this the further the progress of the country. or we believed that the sanctions policies in effect and wrong and is a terrorist war against people. so yeah. okay. i found that shade both met the iranian foreign minister upon his arrival in moscow. the iranian foreign minister has arrived here in moscow to meet with his counterpart, sir. gala rav, there the 2 men are following up on discussions between the leaders of russia and iran, which have previously taken place. i think their focus essentially on the economy and strategic partnership, martha, we are satisfied with the increase in volume of economic corporation and trade turnover between the 2 countries. over the past year and a half, that the volume of trade turnover between all countries has increased by almost 3 and a half dimes. and this trend by still growing at an increasing age. of course,

the, the uranium foreign minister will have had a central role in brokering along with china and the regional day taunt between saudi arabia and iran, which stands to potentially transform at the map of the middle east to bring peace and hopefully prosperity to the 2 countries, so we're starting to see the context of these really important geopolitical meetings, which have taken place in moscow alongside the visit of president shing ping. we have to take them into context of a shifting map and death. this is definitely something that will be discussed between the 2 men. to morrow during their working meeting. ah, the public version of the a i driven chance to gpc search engine developed in the u. s. as they say, 2014 made an uprising and ukraine on a list of kiddos. washington has been involved, and the list was shed on social media by an independent journalist from hawaii. the

u. s. government backed the ousting of ukraine's president victor ya, new coverage, and a crew that brought pro western leaders to power chat. gpc is perhaps the best known of these artificial intelligence bots. it was one of those requests to write an essay about u. s. involvement in coups, around the world as generated. this embarrassing response includes ukraine on the list. the u. s. on the eyes of course, deny involvement in the overthrow of the ukranian government in 2014. how to insist that russia's special military operation with in fact an unprovoked attack, but chat g p t apparently on said the den ukrainian president, jani cove ich was ousted in a cood brought to power pro weston that leaders being i, i another one of the chat box went off, it produced a detailed time on the u. s. involvement in the qu, in essentially said that the intervention was aimed to contain and we can rush and it said it was dangerous and destructive. here's what they said. the crew and its aftermath have also affected the security and stability of the wider region,

as well as the global order. the crisis has increased the risk of a wider war, or a nuclear confrontation between the u. s. and russia, which both have troops and weapons deployed near ukraine's borders. the crisis has also undermined the principles of international law and sovereignty, as well as the norms of cooperation and dialogue among major powers. so see where else as the u. s. in involving cruise. when it's probably easier to list those places where it hasn't been involving, cuz i think perhaps most most notoriously, in the 19 seventy's under operation condo, it was involved in the backing of dest schools, in the overthrow of democratically elected governments across latin america. that it felt threatened u. s. interests. most famously in argentine of calls where there was a dirty wall that lost data for decades and in kitty where the democratically elected government of the self proclaimed malls, his salvador allende took place. and he was replaced with augusta. now,

tens of thousands of people were tortured, disappeared in and killed by those regimes and across in the middle east. of course, the u. s. was involved in the ousting of the iranian leader mohammed, most of that, who had threatened to nationalize the country's oil, which of course the u. s. has a vested interest in and they impose the, the, the pro u. s. pro western shaw, who was himself house. if in the 979 revolution there more lastly has been involved in cova operations in syria operation, timber sick of all wet whistle. $1000000000.00 us dollars channel to assyrian opposition groups and to overthrow president potter allison. now stevie, you don't really mentioned africa. what, what's been going on there? what of course is there a huge operations are underway in, in africa to speak of a secret war, their massive troop numbers. and they use a loophole to bypass congressional accountability u. s. or military has trained. so does that have been involved in at least 7 coups

in the last 2 years? washington is insisted it has shared values with many of these li leaders is the head of the us, african being grilled on that issue. what percentage of the people we've trained end up participating in insurrections or coups against their own government? very small number. this is a kernel, mama de dom boucher and this is a photo of of him. did we train and equip him by name? i cannot identify that. what was that guy in the middle with the big red hat, colonel mama, datum bo. yeah. that, that's him with a bunch of us service members outside of our embassy core values is what we start off with in higher my programs. do we shape or values with kernel demilia, core values? i will repeat that for values i know spectrum in math who we do. we share those values with kernel. absolutely. and our curriculum, he let it go. we do. okay, that's a very telling answer. now west africa, the south region in particular has been incredibly volatile. it's been played with

. she had his insurgencies and tribal disputes, but in particular, around the border areas. now since 2005, the u. s. has pumped millions of dollars to bring stability to the region. and since the 2 thousands, the united states has sent commandos in special operations forces to work with local forces on the ground, often even leading them into battle. now that intervention has clearly failed many, those countries are now turning towards russia for security assistance. president putin has said that the continent of africa is a priority for moscow. this perhaps explains washington's a recent interest in africa. and of course, we've now seen the vice president, kamala harris is that latest senior official to be sent to africa on a charm offensive. what we've seen the impact of us intervention across the world. indications are at the moment, despite washington's denials. the u. s. involvement in the 2014 might, and coo and ukraine will not be a surprise. it was this on the civil war,

and attacks on russian speakers that followed has led directly to the conflict in ukraine and ever to africa. away us vice president camel house is on her 2nd day of the 3 nation talk in attempt to revive washington's waning influence on the continent. i'm very excited about the future about i'm very excited about the impact of the future of africa on the rest of the world, including the united states of america. this is horace is a 1st trip to africa since taking office that she's also expected to visit tanzania and zambia. on monday, harris mentioned the importance of supporting human rights on the continent. some local politicians had back and advise the u. s. vice president to check other nations track record before trying to lecture. do you think the parliament of gonna is going to be guided by the opinion of the vice president of the country?

that is one of the biggest abusers of human rights. police. economic analysts from africa youth have dodie essays, the continent, one spare trade relations instead of unsolicited advice and imperatives from washington. an area that the west has used very aggressively in the past is the mechanism of divide and rule. so one of the mechanisms that america is likely to use in africa is to offer military assistance to the government of the day discussion on human rights. and the respect for human life is really a discussion that we believe that the american really have no moral ground on which to talk about it in any meaningful way. i think africa is now beginning to recognize that this is not a discussion we're wanting to engage in because we have nothing to learn from these

countries. what we want to be able to do is to have a relationship that trade related. that's economic development related the head of the washing olympic committee has slammed the well bodies refusal to reinstate the country's national team. the international olympic committee also postponed a decision on whether athletes from russia will be allowed to compete under a neutral flank at next year's olympics. in front of me about, i mean trickery theory was the announce parameters and criteria for the return of russians to international competition. so absolutely unacceptable you've, you've met, neutral status is an obvious discrimination on the basis of nationality and violation of basic human and civil rights. someone as for the ban on the participation of russians in team competitions. here in our opinion, we are clearly seeing not just discrimination of athletes by passports, but also by the discipline they represent. such an approach contradicts the limpid charter is not the un charter, humanitarian,

civil and generally accepted normals. the international olympic committee bounds the national teams of russia and fella roof last year for purely political reasons over the conflicts in ukraine. i see chief thomas box says individual athletes should be allowed to compete with international events and do a neutral flag. here are the so called recommendations. he's laid out one athletes with a russian or a baler. russian passport must compete only as individual. can you troll athletes? 2 teams of athletes with a russian or bailer russian passport can not be considered. 3 athletes who actively support the war cannot compete for his sports and media lecturer,

alice casual essays. there's no excuse for restricting athletes for political reasons. this is a violation of the rules of human rights. these are not normal times. we live in extraordinary extraordinary period in history, where the world is divided. the western powers and the united states are very much set against russia, visitation, in sport, and they will possibly, under, we're a long way away from the person who i know them. but i think it's conceivable that sure thomas bar pursued it and allow russian athletes in any kind of her presence at the olympics. then there will be boycotts from other nations. for example, poland u. k. germany, united states, of course then the whole game. if the io city does eventually admit individual russian athletes that there will be a ripple effect. this is a large scale,

perhaps the most influential school. so relation in world and his latest bit to limit paging is growing. influence washington is that it's science on social media giant take talk one. in contrast, china is welcoming foreign fans aiming to both states already thought the economy. china will open its doors wider and wider. no matter how the international situation changes. china will, unswerving li, expand its opening up to the outside world. chinese economy has been deeply integrated into the global division of labor. while china is very eager to court foreign investors and do business internationally. they just hosted the china development forum that was attended by apple c e o. tim cook. we have the united states with a law being discussed in the us senate that would limit and restrict foreign technology and technology with links to foreign governments. here's some of the language. i think the white house is very in favor of this bill. we gave the

secretary of commerce to tools to ban to for sale, other tools. we got 150000000 americans on tip talk average of about 90 minutes a day, and how that channel could be used for propaganda purposes, or just information, advocated by the communist party, the proposed risk information communications technology act, also known as the restrict act, is about a lot more than tick tock, those who are concerned about civil liberties and freedom of information and property rights in the united states have some very serious concerns. among the harshest critics of the proposed law are the mrs caucus of the libertarian party. this is the assessment they gave of the restrict act, currently being discussed by the u. s. congress. the restrict act is not limited to just tick tock. it gives the government authority over all forms of communication, domestic or abroad, and grants powers to enforce any mitigation measure to address any risk to national

security now and in any potential future transaction. the law essentially enables certain us officials to declare any one person or any technology to be a national security risk. and then in doing so, give them the access to seize everything. the bill has provisions for federal detention without due process. it also has provisions for $1000000.00 fines and the forfeit of all of the person's property, all in the name of protecting information and preventing foreign influence in the united states or foreign technology. now the bill also enables certain us officials to single out foreign adversaries. and with the approval of the president move ahead against all technology that would be essentially linked to them in any way. it's quite a big bill with a lot of provision that certainly about

a lot more than tick tock. it's not simply about one social media app, it has the sweeping power being given to the executive branch of the u. s. government in order to crack down on those deems to be involved with technology or somehow a threat to the country overall is quite an extreme bill, but the white house is supporting it even while those who believe in american freedoms and civil liberties are raising some pretty strong objection, according to professor and author michael rex and vote the us move against take talk is more about censorship than national security. everything in the bill suggest that this is not strictly about national security, but rather safeguarding the dominant state directed narratives. in general, we've seen many instances of the u. s. department's national departments acting against us citizens and censoring them and surveilling upon them. we saw

this with the twitter files and we saw this with the department of homeland security having a back door access to facebook. and we're seeing this now. this seemed to be just and tightening down the hatches making this, making it almost impossible to communicate without government surveillance at all times. fresh clashes of reps on the streets of paris as huge crowds. i protested, the pension reform for a 10. stay with president mac, phone's government deploying 13000 offices across the country, and more than 5000 in paris alone. ah

at least one person has been injured in the french capital on tuesday to the unrest fled up after the government raised the retirement age from 62 to 64 without as those in parliament demonstrated that being confronted by offices, responded with tear gas and hauled to canon and body french president of school today, taking, taking to the chief in france, legitimate and monument con, has openly supportive protested in other countries like lebanon deliveries and the wrong that government, the revolution cannot be achieved on its own. it can be only conducted by the people in europe. in the end, you must continue to support the hundreds of thousands of bell russians who peacefully protest for their rights, their freedom and their sovereignty. i salute the courage of the hundreds of thousands of venezuelans marching for their freedom in a very clear way, france condemns the repressions carried out today by the iranian regime. and we

stand by these women. they are sovereign people fighting for their freedom. american radio talk show host and political analysts gallant nixon save paris should focus on its own national issues rather than meddling in the offense of other countries. to me, this is not just about the pension, this is about a series of a, basically years of changes in french policy that, you know, made it aware to the people it made. it made it obvious to the people in france that they did not have control over their government. that the, the type of government that they have now is a, is a fraud and a force. and that their government does not represent them whatsoever. you know, they made it what might as well, so, you know, people should stop hitting each other with sticks and running in different directions and lighting fires as opposed to the comments about georgia or the comments about iran or hong kong, where they called for structural change got structural called government change,

where they can be in the government and the government's actions against the people here. they don't condemn the french government and they don't call for any structural change that with the people that the issues that the people have brought to have brought to bear against the government. so we again, the contradiction is obvious here. radical ukrainian nationalists violently seized in orthodox church in the western part of the country there. so to involve some 200 people, mostly dressed in camouflage. with their faces covered, they attack is broke down the doors and stormed into the church. the local bishop was reportedly beaten and the other priests were pappas, bright. the police allegedly did nothing to intervene. images, circulation on social media had to show the aftermath of a fire at the said he's want one ukrainian nationalists has said about the crackdown slew set to it must gorski as a what if you enter

a church and hear the ringing of moscow you, that's it. you said it only buyer 6, but normal and there's nothing wrong with smithy. meanwhile, the actions of the landscape, governments against the orthodox church in ukraine as julia, attention of pope francis, he said he's ready to be immediate. we spoke to reverend doctor risdon. joe, go see ology. professor at the university of ethan. sorry. he says, the western political, silent silence on crackdown is hypocritical. entire collective rest. all media, long politicians, and in the west, it's heavily in, in, in an image of ukraine or see if i can give it to russia fighting. he will tie really, from russia. so now when we are a bit to seek to substance all today, she's crazy to terror of today's ukraine. none of us are media are actually willing just to call them. johnson for their audience is about the about the images of

camera which are taking place in today's ukraine in the moment which we are talking . you can just he by, by your own eyes that a human rise of ukrainians who are not willing to convert to this newly formed chauvinistic ethnic. jessica body is human rights of these ukrainian or not exist since it's a high poker survey which are standing by you for church. we know very well what does it mean to be persecuted by a state? unfortunately too many said dang, send rents which are to come. but nevertheless that christ and she church will prevail and ukrainian or of church would prevail even in this i think about circumstances. ah, and other developments moscow say things. crude oil exposed to india increased

dramatically last year with russia also becoming china's top low supplier and the 1st 2 months of 2023, deputy prime minister. alexander novak attributed the developments to a successful we were taking care of exports. most of our energy resources have been re directed to other markets to the markets of friendly countries. let me remind you that our oil supplies to india increased 22 full blast year deliveries to the people's republic of china and other markets have increased. this is also the result of the great work that has been done in the industry. the western mainstream media has responded with concerns of its own lindberg phase russian crude exports holding strong in defiance of sanctions. as to the west, imposed a prior council, russian oil, and slapped and embargo and maritime deliveries of oil and petroleum products. but because also pointed to the surging expos of diesel from russia this month, this applies a point to hit record highs since 2016. and indian journalist on column is told us

that the west shot itself in the foot to the phone functions, opening up a great opportunity for developing countries to buy from russia. we aren't in no law for western lectures, you know, because thereby russia, oil and gas as well. and we should, we'll have to do it out. it's our judgment. it's our own national interest. so i think it's good news that russia will, you know, put more of it. so i'll and the international market, which means the price of the oil price of oil and gas, you know, and the other energy exports would. we don't that you are appears by sticking on with the americans in their whole ukraine policy. and in trying to, you know, bush, russia has actually created a lot of problems for themselves. it's their, you know, the decision not to import oil and gas. russia,

which has made russia look out to the rest of the war, and that it covers the blessing unit. russia has never made much of an effort to export oil and gas to other parts of the word because they were happy, you know, selling it to their, you know, countries in the euro because it makes sense. but now with all this problem was created by the western sanctions, russia that looked out elsewhere and that all goes well for our economy. and i think for much of the world, which depends on energy import. this is good news. some hawkish veteran us officials urging joe biden to stop middle east. the nations from normalizing ties with syria and open less to the white house was signed by a former c i, a director as well as an ex us special envoy to to mask this piecemeal normalization efforts by some regional governments do not address us national security interests. or human rights issues, opposing regime normalization. a word only is not enough,

as tacitly allowing it is short sighted and damaging to any hope for regional security. instability. when it comes as a you a jordan, bahrain, and egypt to booth thing revelations with the syrian government. they are of nations follow saudi arabia, lead off to read and agreed to revive its diplomatic ties with damascus. with the 2 countries now preparing to reopen that respective embassies, as also increasing talks of syria being allowed to rejoin the hour oblique. all of these moves of wild, the neocons in the us who want washington to clamp down on serious developments. well, back in 1979, the us branded syria, a state sponsor of terrorism in slot sanctions on the country. following the start of the arabs, spring uprisings in 2011 and washington supported the islamist syrian rebels against damascus and called on president assad. to step down, the u. s. s. is in 4th additional sanctions on syria contributing to the deteriorating about

a tarion situation in the country. washington is also deployed some troops in syria, allegedly to fight terrorists, but political and alyssa bass and dylan says the us simply wants to plunder more oil. the most interesting that tonight is just talking about the humanitarian subbing of syria. but those in at the same time they are stealing the figure oil and they have their saw jurors if you're buying the most rich a part of the ne off, sir? yeah, the american troops in this he and land is against the order of international law because the american top seat came without any resolution or a decision from un security government and the american approach to continue with their sanctions, especially after very by the american experiences in iraq, i'm going to start to america. they have no right to talk about your,

my rights freedom. democracy, which is we are very tired from the slogans which the american admin vision. oh, i make an offer just talking for the latest news that day and plenty more. you can check our website r t dot com. thank you for choosing a. ringback a with, with hello, welcome to well to part with the one in the ukraine. still dominating the international

headlines. and the 20th anniversary of the years invasion of iraq has come and passed. barely noticed. although the consequences of that decision still have a major influence on both the country and the region to take it on, what's the state of iraq to free them? well, to discuss that i'm now joined by mohammed a son visiting senior research fellow at kings college london professor sounded great to talk to you. thank you very much for your time. thank you so much. thank you. 20 years is a long enough time to have a perspective and then have it tested by reality. 5 and i want to get started with a personal question when you compare your hopes, your expectations for iraq 20 years ago, and now is there any difference? first of all, thank you again. really i was one. all they are people who are more rocky position .
