a slow do school course. i don't know who she's got to know for the don't know if i should just to do with you used to play in finances. come on both with headlines right now for this hour. benjamin netanyahu said israel is still friends with america despite some majority officials, even suggesting that washington is somehow involved in the nation wide protests that have been sweeping. the country recently opened a big meeting today at moscow. iran and rough just share their outlook on us sanctions, ukrainian conflict and comprehensive strategic partnership between both russia and iran. both are the prime minister of poland to take an aim of the e. u. failing to deliver on the key points of the western dr. ukrainian, great deal, resulting in european farmers,

devastated as over supply forces to local prices with just after 7 pm local time, here with the russian capital. this is the internet. so israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu a slam is what he calls the country's close, just friends saying israel will define its path independently. and all of this coming on the heels of u. s. criticism of the prime minister's judicial reform that has sparked nation wide demonstrations. israel is the sovereign country, which makes is decisions by the will of its people and not based on precious from abroad, including from the best of friends. these rarely prime minister was talking about the us israel's closest friend and ally, and it's very active interference in israel's internal affairs. but choking often and yahoo express his concerns about external pressure and interference into

israel's internal affairs from abroad. he came out and said that these railey us friendship is unshakable, even though the 2 countries might have certain disagreements. and they certainly do for months in yahoo's blog has been very actively pushing for a controversial judicial reform that saw huge public disapproval, including in the military ranks on tuesday. americans, president biden criticize the path, is ro toast to follow what also remains to be seen is when newton yahoo will be invited to washington in the same speed to bind and made it clear that for now these really prime minister, whose government came to power 3 months ago, and he already traveled to a number of european countries with official visits, is not welcomed in the white house. like a, i'm very concerned. i'm concerned that they get history cannot continued on will

go to major for hopefully one to rule with yes indeed, this trade a very harsh words between best friends, israel and the u. s. comes and made claims from inside israel, from some israeli officials that washington may be involved, maybe behind or even sponsoring massive. i'm to government protests that have been shaking the country for 30 weeks in a row on saturday evening. and yahoo son shared an article on his social media about the report that reveals with the same department allocates a lot of money for in the recitation supporting demonstrators here in israel. some israeli officials started asking legitimate questions. this protest is financed and organized with millions of dollars. we're following what is happening. this is

a very high level organization. there is an organized center from which all the demonstrators branch out in an orderly manner who finances, the transportation to flags, the stages. it's clear to us the you ask, has been denying all accusations or any involvement in the protest movement. any notion that we are popping up or supporting these protests, or the initiators of them is completely and demonstrably false. so if honeymoon over for israel and the u. s. office and yahoo is most recent statements. it seems they are good for now, but certainly there awesome clouds in the clear skies of this friendship. and as biden said, it remains to be seen. i was talking other to simon sickness and international relations expert. now he says that if indeed, netanyahu tries to continue with the judicial reform, it could very well spell the end for his gulf. i think it has a shame now with and we probably won't see it if he, if he doesn't stop this, well, we'll see

a continuation of the month of july and the government may fall this year. we might have it a $24.00, in my opinion, this is one of the elements of diplomacy in why do i do once i did that, but also the demo with which is connected to and do it due to go home. you know, this invitation which is an elemental diploma for a minute, but you know that if i was please what. busy what your government as well, so i am postponing your visit. so this is, this is a promise to play. iran's foreign minister holding talks today with his russian counterpart here at moscow. one of the main themes about about plans for a comprehensive strategic partnership treaty between both countries and much more regional cooperation though. so to get off the ticket i went to point washington

sank. washington nice to lift it. sanctions awful. vera mute population in the world is still waiting for the us to resume its obligations in the iranian new killer deal and lift our sanctions imposed on iraq. when we sunk street thug, i'd love was very critical of the sanctions that have been imposed on around by the united states. of course, they were impose after the collapse of the joint comprehensive agreement. this was the iran nuclear deal. and that the bar or the trump administration arbitrarily pulled out. now he isn't and said that the sanction is, must there be brought to an end. now, talks have be continuing air in vienna, not face to face, have been done through a mediator, but progress has been very slowly in that area. i am of course, well, unsurprisingly, the 2 men spoke about the situation in ukraine. lab rav said that the west can emily conflict at any minute, but it decide to flood cave with arms. instead he said the end of last week, he said that the usa, you say anthony, blinking medical spoke against a ceasefire,

saying that it would her be in rushes, he had benefit, but also the radium foreign minister lamp. actually the western approach here as well call for dialogue, the throne ownership dog. so discussing the situation in ukraine, we highlighted nato's undermining line of behavior that are with both feet, standing in the ukrainian conflict in her being sucked deeper and deeper into it. honestly, i don't know if i can go any deeper and luxury out of a bestseller. i thought that the west to supply ukraine with weapons, in our opinion, only worse as the situation in ukraine. we need to solve it by diplomatic means. sambota. now both men said that they supported initiative for a peaceful resolution. they welcomed for chinese president changing pings, road map to peace that was outlined again during his recent visit with her to moscow, where he met with president putin. but sir guy lebrun said that those talk must be based on what he describers, indivisible security that no country can then strengthen its security at the

expense of another. of course, he was at the most likely referring to nato's cont, the new in expansion, eastwood. despite promising not one more inch, but he said that this was called enshrined in the un charter and shrine didn't international law. it is, it is fascinating though the that the moving and shaking. we're seeing these day, steve, on the geopolitical transport, him and his iran visiting moscow, right. as the foreign ministers of iran and all these other countries around the world that working overtime. because okay, laughter off is working double over time these days. i mean, iran is poised to join the seo the shanghai cooperation organization. iran is poised to join bricks, brazil, russia, india, china, south africa. i've heard there are 22 other countries who will want to join britain . you can call them the d dollarization coalitions, d because these are countries with china's contemporary silk road. we're all going to be doing international trade in national cards. this is hugely important. and the foreign minister, if they said that 49 documents that were required to join the shanghai cooperation organization have now been ratified by the iranian parliament. they've also spoken

about, as you said, joining the bricks and bricks alliance, $22.00 countries. and we just heard as well, the and saudi arabia is now looking to join the shanghai cooperation organization that has now been agreed. i must say was the sort of jumping. but it was china that brought saudi arabia and iran together recently bought in it. of course and, and the reigning foreign minister mentioned this he, he, him factor thanked china for their efforts in mediating this arm. yeah. huge the significant piece deal, which not only brings em saudi arabian iran together, but it's also warmed relations between saudi arabia and sirius. are these are the b a u. s. his main strategic ally in the region? reality is now looking to opening embassies again in both of those countries. syria, of course, been welcome back into the to the arab lee and of course, next week as the uranium foreign minister said there's these quad with lateral talks between russia and iran, but looking to bring syria and turkey close together. so this normalization of

relations between those 2 a, infuse the important for the, the 12 year conflict in syria. they've been on opposing sides of president us out. of course, again, also recently in russia. so russia's played a very important role in, in this respect. but also again, you mentioned the soup crow to bolton road initiative. china is, i get this a hugely expensive project, which we'll see a countries trading in local currency. so this shift away from the dollar massively important because if the u. s. loses the dollar was the world currency, it loses its ability to dominate well financial market. canada has sent more than a $1000000000.00 worth of military aid to ukraine over the past year. now the country's prime minister has had to dodge a question from a local journalist who asked him point blank. why is canada engaged in a proxy wall with russia?

i mr. judo mr. 2 today, why do you keep wrapping up the proxy war? why do you keep wrapping up the proxy war with russia, mr. to go, mr. richard? oh, you said you said more than $2000000000.00 in when service, if i did, they don't rock the war by now. and the data you have, you are early are we were talking to eve angler, the canadian journalist who was shouting those questions. so he says the country has substantially contributed to p. s. war effort. have a have a listen, live was mojo paper. did a calculation? tabulated that canada had sent $2260000000.00, canadian dollars in weapons already. and actually since then there's been a number of announcements. so i trust the newspaper more than i trust the government itself. so i think it's probably almost certainly over $2000000.00 and, and maybe more, but that's only a small part of it. i'm in canada's providing intelligence. ukrainian military you have can in special forces on the ground. you have

a former many former clean soldiers that have been killed in that are fighting the canadian government has, has greatly contributed to the, to the proxy war as well as helping provoke the conflict. no more than a year ago. in politicians, it's remarkable. i mean, somebody, even if somebody who's a strong supporter, what canada is doing in ukraine, should at least want a debate about it. but the media, the mainstream journalist, they don't even ask the questions. there's not really any, any debate. it's just assumed that what canada is doing is good and the question is, should we do even more? not whether we, you know, helped it over throwing out a coverage in 2014 not whether we undermine the midst to piece according to our operation. unifier, training mission, not whether we should have, you know, opposed us moves to put more and more nuclear weapons in eastern europe. and it's

just to sort of assume that, you know, rush is all bad and our side is all good. and we didn't need to keep, you know, of candidates, foreign minister didn't need to go to keys in, in january, didn't need to go there and push for nato expansion. that was absolutely unnecessary. did you and other things we did to sort of stop the conflict? if you don't know any of that, then you think the candidates just, you know, putting money into a good cause. if you look at can a foreign policy and i looked at came foreign policy all around the world. canada is very closely aligned with washington. the canadian arms industry is completely integrated with the us arms industry. arms companies always like more wars and more possibilities to deliver weapons is good to the arms companies and canada. founding the u. s. written in canada found denito for formally founding a 949 cameras, long been a very staunch pro neo force. and so canada is taking a very belligerent position, and there's very little cost,

unlike germany or some of the central european countries, there's almost no cost for canada, right? of energy prices haven't gone up. and the, the spit spillover cost is much, much less than in some of the other nato, nato countries, the prime minister of poland and his romanian counterpart of taking a swipe at the e. u for failing to deliver on the key points of the western back ukrainian grain bill. an oversupply has seen prices in europe. tank hitting local farm was the hardest getting getting take on the story. now. his aunty contributor rachel marston, well polish prime minister mateus mar. wiki is usually busy, browbeating germany, france in the us, in the rest of the west for not doing enough for ukraine. now, poland is always leading the charge and demanding higher powered weapons for ukraine. and is quick to rummage through its closet for fighter jets and tanks when it can easily replace them with better weapons for itself. with all that defense assistant cash from washington. and it just reportedly billed the

e u. 2000000000 euros for sending hand me down. weapons that it had to ukraine. yeah. why sell for h m? when you can get rid of it from your closet and replace it with chanel? right. it's like giving away your whole wardrobe to a friend, and then billing your parents for it. so of course, you're not walking around naked from a national security perspective. so poland has really been generous with ukraine when others are footing the bill. but when it comes to sacrificing its own economic competitiveness to ukraine, well, in that case, not so generous. and the same goes for its neighbor romania, judging by statements made by the countries prime ministers and a joint press conference. have a listen here to we speak with one voice. this grain, as promised by the european commission, was supposed to go to africa in the middle east. meanwhile, procedural imperfections and tardiness in certain areas led to the fact that some of the screen and other agricultural produce has remained in the eastern part of europe, thereby driving down prices for farmers. together we are engaged in the process to

discuss with the european commission, where the mechanism should be to enforce the trust ability, if your credit exports to final destinations. so now they want brussels to trace the grain because it's impacting their countries, any interest in tracing all the weapons, the poland is dumping into grain while demanding that others do likewise at the risk of it blowing back into europe. or no, it was just last november that european commission, president ursula vander line, announced the grain from ukraine initiative alongside zalinski and another 1000000000 euros to funds so called solidarity lanes for the grain and quote, coming together to avert hunger around the world. but apparently, a 1000000000 bucks can't buy competence since the grain is swerving out of the solidarity lanes and crash landing right on polish and romanian farmers as they're pretty quick to say themselves. it 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. if poland and romania don't watch, oh, they'll be accused of peddling fake news, which is exactly how the west as routinely qualified. any suggestion that the ukrainian grain programs like grain from ukraine and the black sea grain initiative are not actually feeding the world's poor. now, turkish president regime air to want pointed out earlier this year, that 44 percent of ukrainian grain is actually going to europe and just 14 percent african countries. now if you crane just needs to make a buck, then why not just say so. instead, the went out of their way to sell it as a world hunger program to get the ball rolling, only than to use it to stock up its own pantry at the expense of its local producers. good thing, the u has more cash to toss at this new problem that it created. 56.3000000 euros to be exact, for bulgarian polish and romanian farmers impacted by its latest active,

self owning. and how did brussels frame that hand out? by blaming russia, of course, claiming that quote, the trade disruptions incurred by the russian aggression should not take place at the expense of far from neighboring countries. now, moscow is clearly no match for the use own special brand of home grown incompetence . the head of the don't ask republic, such as advancing russian troops off flanking ukrainian forces on both sides of the key town of of the car. now the question is, why is this area so important? rational authorities say that taken that region would eliminate a strategic position, but it keeps forces have been using to attack civilian areas over the past 9 years . of a town is just some 20 kilometers away from the regional capital of the next city. and if control has gained, they are many are saying the officials basically believe it would insure security for the people in that region. well,

handed it over now to our corresponding romance coast of reporting now on how the increased usage of russian drones is having a serious effect in that region. ah, shoot with international brigade that nash guy is just one of many groups who are working towards the liberation of that sound of, of dave good. just outside of done it. now since the start of the special military operation, we've seen the rise offer use of these drones now. this sir, this man, he is a drone operator and as you can see there is a grenade attached to a vis, a unmanned aerial vehicle. and a right now the strong boot had ga the positions offer ukrainian and military,

and we will see exactly what is happening. she's right now going to start the drone and take it towards ukrainian militants. ah, the sheriff natoya says just procedure to receive k is now portland circle. now we're working to strengthen our positions to provide visual control from both sides in order to introduce internal rotations. so far they have stable supplies, but that will soon seize as we gain further control of the rogues. so let's explain to people who mercenary thong. they're generally people with combat experience who usually take part in assault scores. the defensive war is followed by ukrainians

themselves. when it comes to a day, of course the 110th brigade there, ukrainians, armed with foreign weapons, things have reached a point where when the standard, the and line of defense is foreign everson and the weapons they have are without labels. there is not a single word in either russian or ukrainian on them claims. we have reached a point that when we hit the target, so they will take off the port on a broken house and place a civilian there and will frame things in a way where them water is not visible. so we're presenting a footage where there is a motor, but also private houses and people in civilian clothes, in one case and 3 more to cruise more found based in areas that seem to be residential. we so this land with all blood and sweat, these buildings will all be rebuilt. service we give you the footage so that people understand why houses are being destroyed. we are returning from the outskirts of, of the if guy after yet another successful mission by push stone. he works almost

every single day and goes to the front line in order to bring the victory closer to roman casa, have arti. the next republic quote, there are no us armed forces in syria. that is a direct quote from the spokesman for the united nations secretary general. but a un press briefing when pressed to buy a, c, g, t, and report on the u. s. military occupation of parts of syria, the spokesman danced around the issue before denying the fact at this dance should . what's the difference that literally additional in syria has no attrition in syria and the situation you're crying. there's no us armed forces inside of syria. and so i'd, as i don't have her it's, it's not a very low issue. sure. there's no, there's no u. s. u. s. military personnel. i as lead this military activity. yeah. but a, but of a budget in terms of ground presence in syria. i'm not aware of that. okay. 5 us service members were injured in that attack. if there's no,

there were no us soldier service members in syria. how could they got injured? that's weird, right. well, let's just give you a bit of a broader perspective here. 2014 nato allies led by america phased an incursion into syria craving. they were fighting terrors, but in fact, they basically used an army of most in areas in an operation where washington was open recording for regime change to oust the president busha. alas sat and while the mission creep started with asked dr. boots on the ground appeared and having finished raised the american flag in the oil rich part of the country. and while syria has stated more than a 100 times, those troops are not welcome. that message has fallen on deaf ears by pentagon sheets, from the carousel of precedence over the last 8 years. now 2018 us president trump ordered the complete withdrawal of us troops from syria. but that did not actually happen. so let's learn more, cross live to the news editor of the cradle,

esteban county yo who's joining us live here on the international a very warm welcome to you. thanks very much for coming on the program. do you think the un deputy spokesman was just ill informed? was he trying to create a false narrative saying there are no us armed forces on the ground in syria? i think the answer lie somewhere between because the, the way she gave you the answer, it sounds like he was making foreign. but it also raised the question of whether this was a, you an official or us state department spokesperson trying to, to defend a defensible. and it's really a, as you said, the president of the us army syria, illegal by international law. so and he said the us was in the us form after the 2nd world war 2, to defend international law into it, to prevent the conflict like these from abruptly. but now it seems to us has to be an attorney to simply another, to, to,

to justify these illegal invasions and these, the blundering of the, of the, of syria's resources. and these are actually the words origin changed. well, i mean, it is, but as you say, i mean the united nations is called upon to be impartial in all matters. but it does seem to be turning a blind eye to the ongoing presence of the us armed forces in syria. but let me ask you this, esteban, it's about, i'm just going to ask you because i'd love to know the answer to this. i mean, what's the real reason for american armed forces in syria? now before you tell me, before you tell me while they're in the northeast, they've secured these oil fields. they're getting barrels of oil every day. but recently, esteban syria ranked 75th in the world when it comes to oil production 75th in the world. when it comes to all production, that is a daily output comparable to the u. s. state of illinois. it's not much. why do you think those us troops really are still there? is it just about the oil?

it's about it's, it's about controlling the oil. producing areas of syria is not really about then taking the oil for themselves because as you said is not, is not significant. but what he does allow them to do is to pressure the government in damascus to pressure the people which on top of economic sanctions, the government cannot, cannot use their own resources to, to reconstruct the revealed. so the us is inferior for that because there were, there are 2 in the 14 around for, for team to training these so called motor rebels and allowed to, to, to grow and to spread into a threat and the government, damascus. because that's what that has been the strategy to start this war and syria has been to our government of our fast. and they initially tried to do it with, with these so called popular o'brien against,

which was funded by the united states and carried out mainly by a, by the g. how do you select your groups and which eventually led to i food. and once i was so itself defeated in front of the fear, an army in front of the russian army, the that's when the us started bombing ices. and that's when they started that they got that. exactly right. i mean, you're allowed to run it on we have complaints coming out of baghdad. iraqi officials were complaining why are american helicopters rescuing isis militants and taken them out of the conflict zone and then they getting medical treatment over in israel. you see, you just don't get the truth in the mainstream media. i wanted to ask you last week a u. s. base this us base and syria was attacked by a drone. dependent on says it was of iranian origin. and so the u. s. lawrence to as drive against these iranian targets in syria and iran responded again. it seems to be that whoever and if it is, perhaps iran,

whoever's doing the strikes against us forces in the oil rich sector of syria, it seems to be accelerating. how do you read bad i read that as changing up the times. we're seeing these in the arab world and as was mentioned earlier in the program with the saudi and iranian approach, men and we saudi arabia. now moving forward, we restart. mission dies with us. it's pretty clear that the us is getting pushed out of the region. so, and these groups, these iranian, by military groups and as well as syria and groups that oppose their creation of their land, they are pushing back. they are getting agree like we also last week or 2 weeks ago . the commander offend, come, was complaining that russia and airplanes were doing reconnaissance missions of all their, their bases in south syria, almost on a daily basis. so we're seeing over all our track again with the presence of us

troops in syria and in the world in general. i think it's very well said esteban, as well as you say, that seems to be this reproach more going on between many regional allies or regional countries in that part of the world. certainly the thing that a vacuum has appeared new powers all coagulating. esteban creal, the news editor of the cradle is always a pleasure to have you on the program. thank you very much. the, the quitters. norma. okay. so in an upcoming deal for a $150000.00 tons of rice from india, egypt to set to bypass the us dollar and used rupee in bilateral trade. as the countries are portly, having issues making trade payments with the american dollar. now, egypt is not alone of some north african nations are also having the very same problem. a cairo recently purchased 2 ship loads of rice and had issues trying to settle the deal in the american currency. in trade with russia, the country has already begun using local currencies. now,

egypt would join 18 countries that have agreed to do business in rupees for cross border transactions and have been to ultimately the dollar. i is that regional trade and the indian rupee is edging closer to becoming an international currency potentially. i spoke to dr. margaret bought ross, a professor of political science at hell one university. he says, the dollar is de facto losing its dominance and global tre. this is a mutual benefit to all parties involved, you know, because the dollars, the, the economic crisis now is how to get the dollar. and the u. s. is trying to size control on countries on the supply dollars and the have to submit to their economy and political conditions. why when you deal with the euro b as in india or the.
