from the ground as donald trump, the faces, the worst political prosecution in us history. the manhattan district attorney secures criminal charges against the former president. the an awful lot of moving and shaking in the world on this friday. let's go straight to your top stories right now. we're not going to quote, the u. s. is the main initiator of global and p russian policy. that is the statement from moscow, as vladimir putin laid out russia's new foreign policy concept in a meeting with the russian security guards, bullying issue, seater and all the factors and all the trends. so i'll be international. if there is developments, we should work to strengthen the sovereignty of russia really not to increase their all the for a country and resolving global issues. and in the creation of more just then you've

got multi polar world quarter time to learn more right now with our to marine across or ever joining us. i live in this friday program here in the street. oh, great to have you have marina. wow. what a statement from the russian president and of course, the russian foreign ministers, ok, laughter off they, they run across quite a number of fi as it wasn't that long. but what they said was very pertinent. it wasn't that long, but now the updated foreign policy concept has some 76 points who don't go through them all. but just to give you a main just of things, basically it's all about as it stated in the document, abandoning the dominance of the united states and working on strengthening corporation with other countries to make sure that this is a multi paula world. something that we've been hearing about rory for a couple of months now, but this is not really cemented, it's now in the document. it's decree that was signed by vladimir putin and what it states here is, for example,

we've seen that the u. s. is the main source of this answer, russia policy, and the document urge as other countries, for example, to abandon the answer russia policy one, and also to get a greater independence from the united states. and russia for its part is planning to help developing countries. for example, to play a greater role in the global economic affairs for example. so we'll work on eliminating the dominance, the united states and other on friendly states in world affairs, global economic affairs and so on. and also, like i said, strengthening that relationship and that partnership with, with friends who are the roches friends, we're talking about china, india, africa, it states that the common and document as well, that islamic civilization, it's always seen in russia as friendly, and then we'll continue to work on it and the key point here, every time that we're talking about a cooperation with another country, it's all about being mutually beneficial. so they are benefits not only of russia,

but the other country that we're talking about and make sure that this is a multi polar world where the interest not only of the united states and the west have been observed, but also of these other countries. and so that these other countries play a bigger role, and we're not talking about the monopoly or the head to money that we've heard from the west. and the tallies of course. so we have that. there's also talk over russia flagship project transformation of eurasia into a single continental space of peace ability, mutual trust. then it did say in the documents and also the live ra, brought it up there as well, that russia will use its armed forces to protect itself and its allies, if it feels that that's what i had accordance with the article, 51 of the un charter so again, going going only through the books of international law to get to get this done, i want to pick you up on something. you may marina, you know, one of the things that i was talking about, what was the countries around the world must be allowed to be independent. they

must have that sovereignty respected. that can't be this bullying from some sort of certain power. who's essentially a hedge? i'm on or around the world. and one of the things that we put in was saying was that the global economy is going through serious changes, switching to new centers of power for the new multi polar world order food and saying this is a key trend. it is a key trend and also in this document, it does say, it does say that there will, there are forces fine to break up certain partnerships that russia is form. and now we, these other countries and that will work on eliminates and that to make sure that corporations that russia is making now with other partners in order to make sure that this mole type holo reality, that we see it, that they're trying to intervene and russia will cut it, cut the cord if you will, and when it sees something interference happening, it will act and respond. and that's why, again har statement it's, it's like a reminder in the way, if you will, that we will answer if there is

a threat to russia, security or that of our allies. also, there will be tackling, in terms of humanitarian policies abroad. the priorities are bruce, to phobia. we've seen how much that's changed, especially since the special military operation began, protects in the russian language, russian culture were sports. they're trying to cancel anything russian. it seems now in europe and around the world in the west, in particular, because we are not seeing things like that in china, india. and i mean this is just as somebody said the other day that the america cannot isolate the rest of the world. but the rest of the world can isolate america, and this is, this is something that we are seeing with this blossoming multi polar world to the shanghai cooperation organization. the members of the bricks asked you in the global south, something that louder off keeps talking about as well. because right before a minister keeps playing host to all these other foreign ministers to keep rushing to moscow. and if they're not rushing to moscow merida, they're going to beige, for example, next week. macros. the teacher's pet is going to be joining with us,

all of angela and i. so i assume they're going, they would that cap in hand because they know the multi poto world is already departing. exactly. so it will be interesting to see what they achieve, if anything, when they go to beijing, them, and what happens there. but also again, just to return to this updated foreign policy concept in it, the 1st point actually does states in the very beginning that russia does not seats off as an enemy of the wife does not want to isolate itself from the wife. this is something that has been done to rush as we've seen, and also expects the wes realize the futility of a confrontational would process. so except the reality that this is becoming the most paula world that can no longer deny it. and what they're trying to do is to make sure that they don't hurt all the countries while they're trying to hang on to that dominance because russia will no longer allow it. china will no longer allow it. there are other countries,

bigger power houses in the world data already and they're coming together. yeah. they're, they're coming together and standing up and saying, well, we have this view of the world, and we want someone to respect our values and traditions are morals. and yes, that may not current coincide with yours, but both can exist. it's not about just the west impose. and this is how we think things should be wrong. just go by our rules. this is not how it should be played out. small type world. i mean, you know, married, it just slipped back to what week or so ago when the chinese president came to moscow and as he was leaving food and what was the one thing that he said we're witnessing the biggest changes in a 100 years and you and me are driving these changes a lot of my food and simply said, i agree. yeah. and they're not the only one say in this for all the world leaders have said to and just a couple of hours ago would just say knowledge is under luca. shine because also saying we're living in historic times. everyone is aware of this nothing. this is why they are so concerned in the way. yeah. because this is a powerhouse union that we're seeing now. absolutely right. marina calls are repre

. thank you. well, let's take a throw then of course live to a 2nd around john and indian journalist joining us here on our team and national hello. sorry, very welcome to you. thank you for coming on the program today. i'm sure you were watching the statements from the russian president and the foreign minister as well . love for of emphasizing that russia has no anti western sentiment and is not closing. is doors for cooperation with countries that don't take a conference, confrontational stance towards moscow? how realistic is that possibility? boy, from frontier on the already there, but confronted has been started by the rest of the united states. lar metal, many of the, most of the people, most of the work had, have come to discontinue their assessment to that group. that hasn't

been had given a chance, even the window before the military office on in then that they would have to get this on to get really old and have some kind of consensus. and that's why did you wish to lead to that? you like the course dish conference with them on up on the, on the thought and after that or dynamics off the work because i had not be talking to one of the year after that. and you, you, we are just explaining the new policy concept pretty good way to be mr. john. mr. john, i just want to apologize. i'm so sorry to interrupt you, but we have such little time here on our tea, and i'm so grateful to have you on this program today. one of the things that i may,

putin said was that russia, in accordance with the article, 51 of the un charter will protect its territory no matter what. i think it's interesting to say to see that let me put in is going through the docs of international law to, to achieve this kind of policy. but what did you think, when putin said the global economy is going through serious changes, switching for new centers of economic power for this new multi polar world order. putin saying it's a key trend. mr. son john. mr. rodge, i'm what, what do you think of that though? well, she, you think you can display a day at that time and that as a way to believe trig direct payments that you on and after that this process will be dollar a, get them expedia to you will be what you had not expected. they speed smith, that is, it is going to, it is going why,

what bread ready to do it. so the be, it will, frank cringed. company had to come to this agreement that they will be making that one. so this is just an it, it really is a huge move around janet, when you talk about this from becoming the 1st european country to use you on to buy l n g. now it's a fascinating story. and what you mentioned about the accelerating multi polar world order. this is something that you spoke to me and joseph burrell talked about a couple of months ago. he said we were aware that they could be a black swan on the horizon. never did. we think there will be multiple black swans on the horizon and never did. we think they would accelerate to the degree that we are witnessing today. mr. mr. john, what is happening to the global world order as we see it today?

many people saying these are the days the history books will be writing about definitely i agree to live with this man. that why do we see we have not expected that in our life same. we will gauge. we will see that we will see that their dynamics is often what are the question globally with global all of them and a new new kind of global coming into being that global district will definitely be and that will lead. why follow that will be lead. why it's diana and, and you can review and we have seen recently that around for the leader who and this week only

many of the reading. so this, all of these are doing saw that a huge gen is, is taking place and i agree. and as someone had said that when that happened and then we will happen, we need to get started happening because it was a front row seats, front row seats to the new changing, multi polar. well, it's at the end around john journalist joining us by for an international. thank you so much for your time. we appreciate that. thank you. well, that's more now question about your job along geopolitical ad, listed as joining us live on our international very well. welcome to you today. so the russian president, announcing a new up to date foreign policy concept. anything there the court you by surprise or anything you'd like to highlight?

i is now, not much of a surprise, but i'll see from places like i forgot. it's something that that they have been looking for to do because it seems like it seems like russia was a bit. it was more on the back seat in terms of the police back now it's outside, it's out there and he's willing to give things done with cook. so that is the interesting part that he's heard nothing much of it as for prizes. so to say, but it's something that most in africa and some parts of it for you to find that if you have russia, b and c $12.00. so it's almost like some of the statements were just kind of confirming what a lot of people already suspected. i mean, the foreign minister jo,

allow for, he emphasized the importance of cooperation within the bricks alliance, which your country is a member of. and what kind of changes you think we can expect in the block in the near future? i mean, i understand joe, it's, it's early days yet, but it's almost like every day we're seeing new changes, particularly in your part of the world. oh, the interesting part is that when it comes to the currency and it's, it's another game changer in terms of the coming to the business or business in south africa. having conversations on how the future is going to look like, of which everyone is excited because they're always looking for one direction for the past 400 years. so finally there's a change. and also, there is a warm feeling the way by lash out, see other countries,

especially african countries. this will close to the western countries will come in a to do what they should do. lincoln was here, it says that it was a here to try and, and she to one to me, i've got to remain in the hands of the west of which i was out. it's just a that. yeah, yeah, i think you're right to very, very good point jo ann and, you know, when we had a was a janet yell in the us treasury secretary, she was doing a quick whirlwind tour of africa recently. and, and they all looked really rosy and glossy with smiles for the big cameras. but we later found out that she was essentially demanding that african countries condemn russia and said, that ties with russia. tell me this. what is the average african person? think about that being told what to do by the us treasury secretary, i know the new breed of african leaders that are here. why don't we did the

older generation that used to follow us from what the with state, because they would take to them what they should do, expose them on the things that were done like giving them money, sending the cool thing to both of us is universities. many other things that were happening, but now and at that particular time, those, the does not mean the way that they would run to the east for help. so we, we, we, we were well aware that a, you would get the money, for example, like that. you know, after time or so using cold must during the now there must be no, it can happen any longer because there's no benefit except that i must keep on feeding go within countries. so i think people are going to have now to do a lot in order to now shift focus to, to, to,

to the east and with your benefits, the treatment that they're getting from russia. it is, it's a treatment that is different from what they get from the east. yeah, there's no, no, there's no air force. russia, or sig, lovegrove uses this with partners in the head of the copy. what are some really, really good points showed us how good to have you on the program to, to shoot straight like this? i, it's interesting what you mentioned, how, how you said that, you know, that the previous generation of leaders on the african continent, perhaps perhaps they were the unwitting victims of what some people call suitcase cash diplomacy. but now you're saying that this new generation of lead is a really woke, they've woken up, and they are like the idea of a partnership with russia. let me ask you this. if a major america has said that russia has been isolated by the world, a lot of people may disagree with that has, let me ask you this. has russia has africa think russia has been isolated?

do you think m rows there was, believe god, the world's. so i don't believe that there was to us, there was, it's everywhere and it's everywhere where we get treated as, as tutner. so that's denton and we've been hearing it for full zelinski said blue conservative precedent to saying pentagon is saying the statement if you ever know with just saying that, but it's not really busy and see in deaf in duffy there was between the with government they don't care about african asia. so it's, it's a boot offensive in africa to say less isolated, many different count the states that are in good terms with russia not counted. so you can only be counted if you do, you know that because that's what they've been trying to achieve,

that i did with money that i did. but now how many countries are going to take to war if they want to do that, the economy that don't as well, i'm really sorry that is already exhausted. it's completely unfounded. it's computed not to believe that the worst it must be new york and london with to them . that's the, was a jump. if i make is, you know, you talk about reality, reality versus narratives. for example. i mean, russia, russia has been, of course, a part of the ukraine, a black c grain deal trying to get grains to the parts of the world that need it the most. and as you, as you know from here on out, see we've been reporting them, most of the grain goes to europe and other countries, not the developing nations and not the countries that need it. the most. meantime, putin has said, you know what, africa, you can have our grain for free. you can have all cargo ships for free. and what did the western say, joe, the west said nothing. why do you think they said nothing about it?

it's because did the boogeyman that they've created india well in their minds it's, it's now coming into the savior, the boogeyman that they've created for all these years. it's now changing the letter t did reality coming into play. so people are starting to see what it is on the ration that was, am only explained in the view all, all you would and pentagon in washington, dc. so now, did you put a 2nd to understand that people want to learn russia in center? i forgot to probably die now living last year because the things that they would call that no, no, no, no. you can learn question. this is the most dangerous people. so the west is not going to like that and we would take teach, expecting, did it. people didn't let us do it, but to was we're expecting the gym clothes. so i take some of the,

just to i take some of the countries that i now shifting away from the dollar, shifting our from us shifting our from view. so it will be happen. well prepared for it. we'll see it happening, but it's not here to dominate, to create partnerships and competition with african conscious. yeah. all right, this is something that both lot of my part and answer collateral with both saying just now that we heard it live, ronald t, as they were discussing the new foreign policy strategy. and essentially saying that partnerships all the way forward and the countries must be allowed to be sovereign and happy independence. respected joe bellanca geopolitical analysts joining us live on archie international. great to have you on the program. thank you very much. thank you. ah, well, south africa has insisted it will not cut its tires with russia to appease any other country. as foreign minister made that statement, i made a meeting of senior officials from both nations in pretoria. over now to our

correspond, caribella catalysts. the south africa, russia, joint infant and economic corporation or i tech for short is said to hold it's 17 fission of talks in this bilateral format that goes back decades in challenging times. looking to what friends, the natural step to take, and south africa and russia are doing just that friendly diplomatic roots were established a long ago with russia support for south africa's governing party, the african national congress. and in 2023 africa's most industrialized economy has been unflinching in its cooperation with russia, with senior mr. that there's a big deal of media interest in our meeting because there are some who don't push us to have relations. we're an old historical threat. and while we're friends with mama all over the world,

we cannot become sudden enemies. i think came into being after the country signed an agreement in 19 length 9 that laid the groundwork for the pears, political commitment to deepen relations in the year of its brig chairmanship. south africa is paving the way for greater trade and economic relations. in the coming years. we definitely want to implement all the opportunities in all aspects . we hope to sign in agreement that will support the creation of a legal framework for co operation between the countries. during the upcoming russia africa summit, this high level, i think meeting between the ministers was the culmination of work done by officials of both countries over the preceding days. this is a time of opportunity for both countries and also for the briggs plus club o. so look forward to us having support from deliberations in briggs in

advance in groups corporation and even further corporation between the south africa and the russian federation. those commercial ties have been centered on areas of minerals, agriculture, water resources, and energy. and assessment of progress was also made on the theme of investment between the 2 countries, but more still needs to be done between the brick spotless and the rest of the group. the trade between our countries last year amounted to $1300000000.00. the sanctions of course, have had a negative impact and forced us to create new options for the financial sector in the nearest future. we will have some practical solutions for that sphere. in 2022 south africa and russian federation celebrated the t years says there stablish men of diplomatic relations while historical links,

a deep rooted from many years of friendship. now is the time for relations to yield . a bounty of economic benefit. gotta melissa and for r t in johannesburg. note overs welcome to decision by the turkish parliament to allow finland to join the western military blah. gov to anchor initially opposed the nordic nations application. i welcome to vote of the grand national assembly of to a kia to complete their it's for cation of finland. succession, this will make the whole native family stronger and safe her. so nato, the washington lead alliance, was founded to oppose the soviet union. but that was over 70 years ago. i finland's nato membership does expand its overall territory. have a look at this map was we show you it basically positions its force is very, very close now to russia's 2nd largest city, which is of course, and peter's book that of the venice of the north. you'll see right, that on a hose border with russia, well, we're talking shoot amounts of kilometers. say,

look at this 1340 kilometers. they're only a $140.00 clicks from the benefits of the north. putin worn finland abandoning its decades long neutrality, could damages tides with moscow. and this nato expansion because that's what it is . it's triggered negative reactions and member state hungary, for example, the deputy parliament speaker in budapest, wars. the movie could lead to a direct conflict between the alliance and russia. if finland joins, ne to this will increase the possibility of an escalation, as well as the risk of a direct armed conflict between the natal members state and russia. nato is participating in a game that the u. s. is playing beyond the borders of the lines. the u. s. is using crane as a puppet. in reality, it's not in the interest of the e. u to support the ukrainian conflict and the sanction regime against russia. however, there is a blood thirsty atmosphere of war. among e, you,

politicians. with the hungarian prime minister to oregon says the you and his leaders are taking a pro war stance with more thought given to supplying more weapons to care. rather than finding a diplomatic solution. the number of countries supporting peace instead of war has not increased at all. people want peace while e u leaders are taking a pro war stance for them. the main issue continues to be deciding which weapons to send to ukraine. it is slowly becoming a legitimate question among e u. leaders, whether e u. member states could send peacekeeping troops to ukraine in some form. well, those comments are, came as a you foreign policy chief, joseph burrell called for europe to increase its military spending. adding brussels as ready to provide key f with another package of financial support. europeans have reduced investment in the defense industry over the past 20 years. but due to the radically shifted security environment,

we need to increase that again. specifically, we want to deliver a 1000000 artillery shells to ukraine. within a year, we are providing a total of $2000000000.00 euros for this. as part of the european piece facility with a reimbursement rate of 50 to 60 percent, we can allocate around 4000000000 euros with this new package i was making earlier with a geopolitical analyst at george zamarelli, who says that europe is involved in confrontation with russia as it no longer has its own sovereignty. now, according to george e u elite, so dependent on u. s. interests. defense spending is of course, a misnomer. ever will the spending that the use engaging in is offensive or
