ah, a benjamin netanyahu say this really is still best friends with america. despite that number, all is really official. suggesting washington involvement in the nation wide protest swept the country over proposed judicial reform with the prime minister of poland takes aim at the feeling to deliver on the key points of the western bank. ukrainian rain deal, resulting in european farmers struggling to keep their liking that reversed apply forces local prices with the u. s. law makers overseeing age ukraine receive almost $200.00 complaints on a legit financial misconduct that to some official fame. only a 5th of

a designated help actually reaches the conflict toward the country with a full 60 percent, never even leaving us shores. and also we don't want the 2nd check, nobody to happen to stop firing about up in the community invited mailing. i don't officials out the is up, it was you had nuclear power plant claim. if you grain, kate shelling that facilitate. it could lead to a global this posture as a team from the u. n's, atomic watched on visit with live for moscow. this is our team. my name's you know, neil and 30 minutes of news and views start down. the is really prime minister. how slow, what he calls the countries closest friends, stating israel will define its path independently. it comes on the heels of

u. s. criticism of benjamin netanyahu, judicial reforms that have spark nationwide protests. 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 and israel's internal affairs. but choking often tend yahoo expressed 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 criticized the path israel chose 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 that they get history cannot continue on with hopeful hopefully find me through 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 protest that has been

shaking the country for 30 weeks in a row. on saturday evening netanyahu son shared an article on his social media about the report that reveals with the state 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, the flags, the stages. it's clear to us the u. s. has been denying all accusations or any involvement in the protest movement. and the notion that we are popping up or supporting these protests, or the initiators of them is completely and demonstrably false. so his honeymoon over for israel and the u. s. offense and yeah, his most recent statements, it seems they are good for now,

but certainly there awesome clouds in the clear skies of his friendship. and as biden said, it remains to be seen well, peace activists, an expert on our up is really a for as low a i'll sharif, believes prime minister. netanyahu needs to correct the statements being made by his coalition. i believe a baby can fix this or as you see, a baby is, is being viewed by so many that he was here. one of the most important elements of abraham accords when it was a book us in 2020. so he is not viewed and his party negatively. but his coalition, especially the statements provocative statements in times where we need to have more stability and more at peace within the region. the statements that come out of his coalition do not really imply a good thing. so these have to be corrected. i am, billy bieber will work on that because that is his best option b,

b is government to be very honest. the coalition, not, not the government itself, not his party. who is the coalition. they have issues with, with their allies now here in the way we, we also have issues with them, with the coalition specially with some statements that are on that come out of this coalition. and this is why babies visit has been postponed for many times and all the story to bring you today the prime minister of poland and his romanian counterpart, tom taken a swipe out the e u for failing to deliver on the key points of the western back ukrainian greenfield, an oversupply, how seen prices in europe tank hitting local farmers hard in particular. here is to take a 40 contributor rachel marston. well polish prime minister, mateus mar. wiki is usually busy, browbeating germany, france and the u. s. and 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 assistance 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 an 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 lesson 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 a process to discuss with the european commission where the mechanisms should be to enforce the trust ability if you credit experts to final destinations. so now they want brussels to trace the grain because it's impacting their country's 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 fund 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 affect prices in local regional markets have dropped, causing a significant impact on farmers income. the commission is not reacting swiftly enough. 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 has routinely qualified. any suggestion that the ukrainian grain programs like drained from ukraine and the black sea grain initiative are not actually feeding the world's poor? now, turkish president reject air to one 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 close the train disruptions incurred by the russian aggression should not take place at the expense of far hearse from neighboring countries. now, moscow is clearly no match for the ease own special brand of homegrown incompetence . ok, something else to tell you about to day 3 inspectors general who look after usa ukraine have received 189 complaints of alleged financial misconduct. as of march, the 1st 2020 sri, 3

o g 's had received 189 ukraine response related hotline complaints, including allegations submitted by ukrainian citizens regarding alleged misconduct within ukraine. r y g investigations resulted from these and other allegations have not yet substantiated significant waste fraud or abuse. and some of said that was just the tip of the iceberg. less delve deeper into it with our teeth kill up my been in new york killed good to see you yet just a month ago or so. the very same agency reported that i did find no at wrong doings, no misconduct into any of the financial support for ukraine, but now suddenly, almost 200 complaints file. take us through that. very interesting, isn't it quite a dramatic shift? well, you'll recall that back in january, there was a big scandal involving corruption that led to a number of ukrainian lawmakers being given the boot. and in addition to that,

it's important to point out that the idea of auditing the money being given to ukraine kind of caught on and gain steam when republicans took back control of the us house of representatives. republicans that are a little bit more critical of aid to ukraine, that the biden administration has been pouring on quite a bit of. now, it's interesting to note that we have a situation here where it appears. young members of congress are saying that a number of the a large amounts of the a designated for ukraine actually stays in the united states. here's what we've heard. of the $113000000000.00 appropriated across 4 supplementals approximately 60 percent is going to american troops. american workers and modernizing american stockpiles. in fact, only 20 percent of the funding is going directly to ukraine in government,

in the form of direct budgetary assistance. so you can imagine that a number of americans now have serious questions about where all this money that's been designated to aid to ukraine is really going the other interesting development is the revelation killer. but the spice, all these load proclamations of on limited support from the u. s. it seems a lot of the pledge cash more than half in fact, isn't even leaving american shores. i much in kia has had something to say on the sure. well, it's the key of government has been raising the concern that they say they want patriot missile, and they are complaining about the fact that they have not received them yet. this was the landscape. we have great decisions about patriots, but we don't have them for real now, zelinski, it appears also went on to say that they had received an air defense system from

another european country. he did not specify which country it was, but that it didn't work that it, they had to change it again and again, you didn't name the countries. so a lot of serious questions being raised about all these billions and billions of dollars that have been sent to you. great questions about corruption are being raised and also people are raising questions about where exactly the money is going . i think people are gonna be very interested to hear the results of the audits and investigations that are taking place now that we hear about all these complains of wrongdoing. yeah, i would imagine so can, thanks very much for breaking all that going 1st, kill up my been in new york city. the british military meanwhile, has started training ukrainian troops in the use of depleted uranium munition in combat. the weapons appear in their recent documentary put out by the u. k. defense ministry. now the father shows ukrainian soldiers undergoing training on challenger

to 3 times in britain. the u. k. recently in the states would provide care with 14 of the vehicle compilation of video shows block needle like runs for the tanks. those are depleted uranium, munitions. the you and environmental program has described uranium chemically on radio, toxic heavy metal, the u. k. confirm the sending of the controversial weapons last week. provoking harsh criticism from russia alongside are granting of a squadron of challenger to mean battle tanks to ukraine will be providing ammunition including armor piercing rounds, which contain depleted uranium. the shock, this is a step towards a serious build up of escalation, see to your statements by western colleagues that it's okay. nothing is for guidance. we don't violate in the conventions. and what we all remember,

what consequences the use of depleted uranium supplies led to an yugoslavia. iraq were tens of thousands of civilians and military personnel suffered from the use of this ammunition also beaten young the modem when right just to point out the u. k. isn't the last one providing training to ukrainian troops, u. s. personnel, all so clearly appear in the footage, a soldier bearing an american flag patch is seen teaching ukraine's fighters and explaining the latest arms from the west, including the depleted uranium munitions sent by the u. k. the u. s. has a history of using the shells, notably during nato's 1999 ball main campaign. in yugoslavia. during the 2003 iraqi war, the us fired more than 300000 depleted uranium ra, in some in civilian areas that had a deadly consequences. the aftermath in fallujah falling to massive u. s. military sieges saw a sharp rise in birth defects, concert cases,

and other illnesses. washington has said itself to london on want ammunition, it sends to ukraine. we would let the, the u. k. speak for itself in terms of what sour decisions are going to make about providing ammunition. this kind of ammunition is fairly commonplace. been in use for, for decades. with ashcroft live to former pentagon senior security policy analyst, michael maloof to hear his thoughts. all those developments at michael you're most welcome. yeah, so he, here we have a it's, it's quite a web, isn't it? you have us soldiers in the u. k. training the ukranian army. and then we have the whole depleted uranium aspect of this. but just on the former, the, the u. s. military in the u. k. doing they're doing their military exercises as it, where is it surprising to you that they're doing it?

they're no, not at all. the u. k. is the one that has stated publicly that they intend to use them or send them rather the u. s. does have a close arrangement with the u. k. they, they work very closely. they get, in fact, those 2 countries were the ones who, who developed the d. u or the depleted uranium rounds. and they've been using them for years and years and years. and as you pointed out in your, in your lead up to the consequences. i know the u. n. has tried to play down the toxic effects, but nobody knows what it's like over time. it's like, it's like agent orange, you know, it creeps up on you and then smack just the head years later. and it increases the toxicity because there's no solution to it. so we and children who play in the all the, the bombed up hawks of those, some of those tanks or even the people,

the troops who handle the depleted uranium rounds are, can be effective very, very easily. and yet, tech tests are undergoing or underway now to determine that. but when you're engaged in an open conflict like this, and they're going to go ahead and send it, it's very difficult to stop that train and less pressure is put on the brits to, to not send them. and i can tell you there is people working to try and do that. i don't know how successful they'll be simply because the, the, the brits aren't listening to anybody and if they're so committed to arming the ukrainians right now, it's like their own death. wish it seems like the u. s. s. has now it will not use them. that doesn't mean that us personnel won't be side by side with the brits to

about it to make sure that they understand how it all works. but you know, this also puts the ukrainians in jeopardy in terms of health. and this whole thing is just maddening. russia has uranium depleted uranium rounds for tanks. i don't know if we use i think that it's best that you keep any uranium out of it. and the, the whole point about this uranium is that if it is a form of you to $35.00, but it's a diluted version of it. but it still has radiation impact over time. nobody knows what that impact is. you have a lot of charities, a lot of and you were asked to seeing this like pointing out the science of it. you know, as well as the u. n's environmental agency thing that changes depleted uranium can

be our viewers as well. mike might be more a fe, with gulf war syndrome in 1901 that was linked to plato uranium as well on the effect that just the way you're explaining though, and the us an influence on this. your thoughts on the possibility of washington or the pentagon sending such munitions to key of as well? do you think they're waiting to see what kind of response london gets or is out in the thinking at all in in washington? well, that's 2 separate question. sure. the pentagon has already announced the senate depleted uranium rounds. they already said that whether that will have an influence on the brits. i have no clue. i would hope so. and maybe behind the scenes there can be pressure brought to bear on, on the, on the u. k ultimately sending those rounds, but the, you know,

they can take, they can do conventional if that's a decision like they can, they can, they can do it. they, they can do conventional. and at the same time, you know, they, the, they're not using the uranium rounds, but i think they've got to pause on this uranium round nonsense and give it some further thought as well. maybe food for thought is rushes response. i would suggest the russian foreign minister said that you can move is quote, a serious step towards escalation. how do you see that? well i, they're talking about escalation in terms of nuclear weapons, as opposed to depleted uranium rounds are 2 different things. to be honest with you, i worry is mike, of course, as you know, that one follows another. yeah, it's a, it's an ethical, a tory process but, but then to equate unethical to, to,

and i might add that, that mr. action in bellows followed the fact that nato has been, has deployed nuclear weapons and nato countries as well. so it's not like who is initiating anything, but i wouldn't put tactical nuclear weapons on the, on the same level as a depleted uranium rounds. but you're right, it, what, what russian side could do is actually start using the depleted uranium rounds, especially if they're going to field those, those british and american tanks, they're, they're all susceptible the damage. and the reason they use uranium depleted rounds is that any tank that zip by them is going to be destroyed because of the way because they, they can overcome the metal, need the steel that's in the tanks. and in fact, depleted uranium rounds is depleted,

uranium is also used to protect the sides of the tanks. now, i don't know if that, that's something that hasn't been discussed, but that is something that needs to be look at are the british, thanks. and the abrams tanks all going to have depleted uranium on the sides of the, of the, of their, their tanks. depleted uranium rounds. the can also be used in aircraft being used to shoot down other aircraft for example, or to strafe an area if they, because they so choose those. all of those things had d u m s s, because tory, whatever way you look at it, isn't it? mike? thanks, we'll stop. it's got to stop. thank you so much for your time. former pentagon senior security policy on with mike, i'm a live life on our team. i now the head of the international atomic energy agency has said, he's boy,

no evidence that any russian weapons are stationed up is zapora was yet nuclear power plant that is despite repeated claims to the country from western media and officials over many months, the heads of the un nuclear watchdog arrived with his team to the city of america dar on wednesday, where the plant, europe's largest such site is located. he was met by representatives of the russian power company, rosner go on. the i age delegation was shown the latest traces of shelling by ukrainian fortunes. officials from the nuclear plant outlined to raphael, good. also the constant pressure unblocked meal. they say they are facing from key of a former. it was still green because with the ukrainian authorities exert constant pressure enough and on our loved ones, we constantly receive anonymous calls and estimates messages. little threats were being blackmailed as we lose our loved ones who remain on the territory of ukraine are practically taken hostage. the calls and movements all our loved ones are

constantly monitored. we were working industry that hugely important facility, especially security of not only the cities of america that was a financial and also the whole of europe depends on our work. see, you've ruled, but we don't want the 2nd check knowledge to have them fear. know before to stop firing at the nuclear power plants will stop intimidating and blended mailing out. please explain to savanski that we want to work quietly with decent goodness for ourselves, for, and our loved ones. the school that is upper orgy nuclear power plant is currently under control over the russian forces, and it comes under ukrainian shilling constantly. now, this is just the latest. what happened here and the head of the international atomic agency inspected this place of lee has schilling and others as well. this armored personnel carrier has been turned into a lab controlled by the russian armed forces. now the commands are all for this group, is that coal sign is liquidator. and so he says they're ready to liquidate any

disasters that might take place as the result of ukrainian artillery shelling. yeah, going to that, that other my detachment arrived here on the instructions of the chief of the general stuff of the chemical environmental protection of the military forces of the russian federation. our task is to ensure safety and prevent accidents at his approach in nuclear. but how plant on aren't detachment is able to provide an evacuation, of course, to now by several routes. decontamination validation and sen treatment, arsenault, and a quinoa. the safety of the station is insured by the forces of the detachment provided that the printing forces will not show that in your political help with the head of the i a last visit. it says up origin nuclear power plants last year. and that just before his visits, ukrainian army, shelter, the nuclear power plants creating quite a lot of fun damage. however, you could hear disaster was narrowly avoided at this moment said the nuclear power

plant is controlled by the russian military. and the, during this particular visit, it wasn't shelled by ukraine from on call for have r t. okay, before we go a fit this story in as well. french police have been accused of stopping emergency services from helping those left badly injured when anti government rallies turned violent over the weekend. an audio recording published in the french media purports to show a doctor's request for immediate help for an injured demonstrator being refused. we had a doctor presence and we have explained the situation to him, but we will not send helicopters or emergency because we have low will local officials say that claims any police have been preventing those injured from getting treatment are entirely false on state all areas of the emergency services are there to assist in times of need. meanwhile,

the country's police have also been making further headlines after a woman in northern france was arrested for using derogatory terms to describe a manual mccaul in a facebook books. she's to be put on trial for insulting the president. according to a local prosecutor, she was detained last week and questioned after a local government office filed a complaint about the post. now, if found guilty, the woman could face a fine of up to $12000.00 hero. independent journalists, luc, renee believes the police may have created an obstruction to m p. the access of emergency services to the protest is fairly possible that actually good police forbade are made it impossible for the new 40 on social, social media or ambulance to reach the frontline of the demonstration. so that's very possible, and it's the case and parents to know france for the moment goes through

a cycle of violence, demonstrations. it is the 10th day of demonstrations bringing some 700000 all 1000000 people on the streets of the main cities. mostly in paris and, and it's ever john, you know, violence and fires everywhere. and of course that is that the garbage, thousands of tons of garbage and in the streets of barracks, in big cities, that is only starting to be taken away. so it's not the time to, to film emily in paris for the moment in all or anywhere else in france. so my call is direct, of course, the pension law. i've got it wants to pass because he has nothing to show for is 56 years now in power. and he wants this fall to be passed and the union say no, and they continue to demonstrate. so that's the key fall. no, a former marine her many say courageously.
