ah, with allies, we want to do everything in their power to preserve their privileged position in the world rushers, deputy ambassador to the united nations telling us he off to a friday security council meeting. the western powers have an insatiable drive to maintain their global hegemony. ukraine camping down on freedom of the press as a new law empowers the state to shut down. any news outlets which would be unacceptable with the program. india's flagship airline insisted will continue flight of a russian as space just wide pressure from a certain western a with

no shortage of news on this saturday. april. the 1st welcome to the program. it's nancy international. so russia's deputy ambassador to the united nations essentially pushing back. he says that western powers are hypocritical to lash out of moscow as proposal to station nuclear arms on the territory of its allied bella, bruce. he added that america has long stationed its nuclear weapons and nato countries ride along russia's board. the west is trying to act within the concepts of rules based international order where it's all it's all. ready and sets the rules and seeks that the others should implement these rules. they want to do everything in their power to preserve their privileged position in the world to preserve the well being of the so called golden helium by any price. they are not hesitate to act in a very much colonial neo colonial logic in deploying nuclear weapons in the western

countries for many years for decades already. and then when the russia analysis similar, lance simply announces they already stop. she's julia many developing countries, especially weak or developing countries there of course, aware of possible consequences of the criticism of washington economic consequences, political consequences, financial consequences. so it was during a un security council meeting on friday that russia's top envoy to the organization bustling a been via demanded that america withdrawal all of its nuclear weapons from foreign countries. he said moscow calm, stand idly by as nato countries are right now, conducting drills for the use of nuclear weapons. but i see is this should do it so do. last rushing in the ninety's took all measures to withdraw nuclear weapons from the territory of the former usaa. we urged americans to do the same to abandon the thinking of the cold war period to return all of us nuclear weapons to the

territory of the united states. u. s. weapons are deployed in the netherlands, germany, turkey, and other nato countries. recall that poland also agree to participate in joint nuclear exercises. this is exactly the area that the measures taken by the president of russia are aimed at the 15 member body. that leads the united nations, assembled to discuss the issue of tactical nuclear weapons being deployed by russia in bel roofs, and bela bruce agreeing to host those tactical nuclear weapons. now, many usaa line countries used this meeting as an opportunity to simply attack russia to blame russia for the conflict in ukraine to a huge raja of various things that we've seen throughout western media over the past months. however, when russia talked to the floor, they pointed out something that many countries have failed to acknowledge in

western media has worked to just simply not mansion, which is that the united states has been withdrawing and getting rid of nuclear agreements. and he went over in detail all the withdrawals of nuclear agreements that we've seen from the united states. from there he went on to highlight how you asked policy as been aimed at trying to dictate and control other countries and escalate tensions around the world. zip, at least one of the can will, western countries are simply trying to impose their own rules on the rest of the world. beneficial only to them in order to then demand this strict compliance from other states. they themselves, of course, do not consider themselves bound by any obligations. such inherently neo colonial latitudes are aimed at ensuring the prosperity of the so called golden 1000000000 at any cost. neither we know our colleagues from developing countries can be misled,

and he more the apparent hypocrisy of the united states in demanding that russia, not the able to deploy tactical nuclear weapons the bell roofs, while the united states and its allies have nuclear weapons a that was made clear by the remarks binding benzine before the council overall meeting highlighted very big differences between major countries represented on the council when it comes to their interpretation of world advance. russia made clear that the united states is acting in a way that is provoking conflict rather than seeking resolution. and not really enforcing any of this rhetoric we hear about a rules based global order. by russia, are you in a different ambassador to meet you about ascii? again, he added that western partners have depleted that military resources. so they've been helping to fuel the conflict in ukraine against russia. she's strong enough, we will. we will compare it to the whole of the western world. and now when the

west has mobilized almost all its resources. so he was the man again, and they are not able to to, to win over russia. ukraine. i think now they are to be concerns because of what are the steps they will do? you speak about washington. so then, of course, the proceeds from the, from the concept of american exceptionalism, that united states has the right to do whatever he wants from the international arena. and now they view russia and china as a threat. they try to mobilize to crowns. are these, these threats and they want everybody else to be silent? not so interfere beside the russia and china. and i think that's the only probation of their foreign policy, right? mobile x like people leaving in on a separate planet, having the right to do what that what they want in the country to, to the others. ukraine has popped a lot,

giving president the landscape government direct or authority to shut down a media outlets. it deems unacceptable, essentially, bypassing any need for court to decide the law takes the power of the ukrainian council on t. v and radio broadcasting to a whole new level, making it the only regulator of mass media. the ability to impose find restrictions or completely bad news agencies that cannot do so without involving the countries judicial system. this comes off to the ukrainian government has bod, a number of political opposition parties, which were accused of being sympathetic to russia. in fact, one of those factions received 2000000 votes in a recent elections. now this whole new media law also prohibits views on russia that contradict key of narrative. so now any reporting in a ukrainian news outlet about russia must at least have the approval of domestic authorities. and the whole legislation has spock deep concerns about that of the

freedom of the press in ukraine. the international federation of journalists joins, it's ukrainian affiliates, the national union of journalists of ukraine, an independent media trade union of ukraine, and calling on the government to revise the new legislation. and to start a broad inclusive dialogue with journalist unions and the media sector. so we got reactions from journalists, so jason, michael and the boyish knowledge about this new ukrainian media law and perhaps similar actions taken by some other states. this is a conflict situation and in every conflict situation, especially one of this magnitude, if this is indeed a proxy conflict between russia and the united states, then the stakes are very high and press freedoms. the very idea of press as an instrument of control and propaganda is instrumental to public opinion gaining

public support, you know, manufacturing consent for the giving of arms. and you know, the use of taxpayers money to fight a war. in sight of the united states side of western europe. so a great deal of consent is required and in order to manufacture by consent than the all the instruments of the, the state than all gra, for media media the, you know, the, the government aligned media in the west and in the united states will fall into line against the support, i don't think anybody should expect the west to condemn this for all of their public commitments to democracy and free speech. we could in fact argue that the ukrainian model is being implemented at home. and given that they've already declared landscape the next best thing to a st, and that in there, i see can do your role. yes, he's already banned old. you know, all the opposition parties. he's already nationalized the media. it's just one of

those. if i run it because it, this decision comes the day after the western journalists are shrieking about the arrest of wall street journal reporter who was reportedly caught red handed, trying to spy on russia. and that's obviously their eyes attack on freedom of the press. but this is not because it doesn't matter what you do, it's only always who you are that's, that's all there is to it. in time, the international monetary fund has approved a $15000000000.00 financial aid package for ukraine. this brings a total international support to at least a $115000000000.00, including a debt, right? office grants and loans to keep the new funding will be released over 48 month. it's the biggest loan ukraine has received since the start of the conflict. it's also the 1st time the i m f is given to help to a country currently engaged in a military conflict. a $2700000000.00 is set to be in immediate disbursement. however, the money comes with conditions which will require a key of to undertake financial reforms. your currents economy did contract by

about a 3rd last year when the government seeking at least $38000000000.00 from foreign donors to bridge the gap. around this time, around 28000000000 in loans and grounds has also been pledged from america and the e u wealth. earlier my colleague unit o'neill spoke with a strategic leadership expert who focuses on friday, crisis management and emerging markets. and he said the i m. s. loan will increase ukraine's dependence on its western partners. boring from the i. m f is not cheap. indeed, because you have to base rate $3.00 for every pay out. that's a surcharge. and then if you take out a lot of money, it gets even more expensive because there should've been kind of incentive not to take out so much money. ukraine suffers damage to its infrastructure. you know, then it gets a loan to rebuild. then there's rebuilding and then there's another peck and then you get another on. so in time so was,

this is always difficult and we should not forget their huge legacy problems. now the scapegoat is russia right? but the ukraine was in a, in a very bad economic situation because of all the gods and bet fiscal policy before the military operations started. i think it's extremely riskier and you cannot use the standard approach now, which is tough fisco policy and so on. actually, it would need a tailored approach. it's hard to think that this is completely al touristic, what the i m f is doing. i don't think that this is very touristic in reality, and i think they are a couple of hidden agenda items which the western countries in particular facility one is to make the make ukraine more dependent on the west,

more dependent on ever increasing amounts of further loans just we pay the previous on the other thing is that it's actually a nice scheme for the western countries, which now deliver weapons actually took that money to get cash for the weapons because otherwise it would be a gift. or sometimes they give their older weapons in order to buy new or whether they get the budget levels up in their home country. absolutely. so very nice scheme to return the router and the equipment military equipment. so and afterwards, when they said that trapped that trip, there's a sense of urgency and there will be a lot of pressure to actually use the frozen foreign currency reserves of russia, which is about 300000000000 dollars. maybe this money then will be used

to repay this. i'm f, loan and all the other lawns on the head of a prominent monastery and key as has been put under house arrest as you credit authorities to strengthen the clamp down on the well christian clergyman. but with a religious ties to russia, according to him, kiev latest move is nothing more than political persecution. i have done nothing of what they are accusing me. this is a political matter. i have never been on the side of aggression. i am against aggression. now i am in ukraine. this is my land. i owe the latest video from outside the monastery and here were a part of a crowd hold for the eviction. nope, the clergy shouting insults and demanding amongst vacate the premises this as orthodox christians and have been seeking to prevent the police from entering the church to remove the clergyman. while the government has been trying to cut

a centuries old ties between orthodox ukrainians and the moscow, patriarchy ne, advisor to ukraine. president said the church needs to be quote, physically cleaned out a unique chance when everything could be resolved very quickly and painlessly was during the 1st 3 to 6 months of the war. then it was possible to simply physically clean out many pro russians. today it is a little more difficult, but again, a little harder does not mean impossible. and today we must use legal and tough means to sweep them away. the monks say that the actions to evict them are illegal and that they have every right to stay the monastery. even a recent report from the united nations is also a question. the validity of the authorities measures even put francis getting involved, expressing concern about religious freedoms being restricted there. and a greek orthodox archbishop called on the global community to help to stop the persecution. describing the crackdown as an attack on christianity. the in the

hazard in the jerusalem church, which is one of the oldest christine orthodox churches in the world. we believe the systematic persecution suffered by the fraternal ukrainian orthodox church is an attack on all of us on all orthodox churches in the world, or old christian churches and on all noble humanitarian, ethical, and spiritual values, cabs, rhoda's and the west, to trying to strike the ukrainian orthodox church, a raise it camps, government is working hard to do this. i don't think the west is just silent. it's an accomplice in this crime. if we say that the west is just silent, we will not reflect the whole reality. the western system and those who claim to be its rulers, whether in the u. s. or elsewhere, trying to undermine the authority of the orthodox church, not only in ukraine, but in the world. the orthodox church is under attack everywhere because it has preserved and maintains faith, morality, and values, including family values. a group of n, g o, as accused frogs,

his largest energy company of complicity in a war crimes for allegedly helping russia fuel its military jet. so let's get another opinion on this without the contributor. is rachel most? when you think of the conflict in ukraine, does the idea of climate change immediately come to mind? well, leave it to green activists to find a way to use events in ukraine against one of their favorite targets, a big oil company, 2 and yos. the darwin climax, coalition based in france and ukraine's rosalyn. we stand our taking legal action in france against the countries oil giant total energy. they're accusing the multinational of war crimes complicity in ukraine, according to western press reports. the n g o is alleged that total operates a national gas field in russia, who's resources were transformed into fuel kerosene. in this case for russian warplanes deployed in ukraine after the onset of the conflict on february 24th of last year. the company has expressed outrage at the accusations which qualifies us

defamatory. what's have meaning and such. talk is unacceptable. these accusations against our company, which conducts that separation and strict compliance with european union policy and applicable european sanctions measures a particularly serious out of funded in light of the explanations we have provided back in october of 2020 the same french and geo was part of a coalition that press charges against total for green washing in 2022 were targeted to company for eco side in another procedure with paris and new york getting involved the litigation. so they've now teed up with ukraine's resume. we stand which specifically targets exports of and investments in russian fossil fuel . busy as a source of revenue for moscow, but they really seem to both be obsessing over this french company in particular, even though russian fuel is being sold all over the world,

the countries that haven't sanctioned russia before be ex forwarded by other oil companies back into the west, after having its russian identity sufficiently launch and for the west and europe in particular, to avoid being seen as blatantly hypocritical. so last year, the very same to and yos, tried to get a french anti terrorist prosecutor to investigate total, accusing the company of war crimes. but that case was dismissed earlier this year. here's what the company lawyers had to say about that particular case. justice should not be blind when faced with indirect, but essential support multinationals to the war effort, and to the considerable profits that they continue to enjoy after an invasion of ukraine. france cannot in the same breath, condemn the invasion, and remain inactive in the face of behaviors propping it up. so it sounds a lot like the kind of power play that the u. s. government made against french cement company le vows when it used its own courts to extract a windfall,

fine of almost $800000000.00 for the us treasury after washington accused it a wheeling and dealing with g hottest and syria, where the company was trying to operate it's certainly not unheard of then for washington to use a whole range of tools at its disposal, including proxies of various kinds of hoody and g o z and playing their own port system to do it's bidding against competitors, foreign competitors, specifically. last year, the british angio global witness also drew attention to 2000 business activities in russia. so no doubt, it's just a total coincidence at so many western and yos are seeing the exact same lines and vs about total and it's linked to russia, speaking of which the company's former ceo stuffed the naturally was described by russian president vladimir putin in 2014 as a, quote, true friend of our country. unfortunately, those remarks were made after denali perished in

a freak accident when his private jet crashed into a snowplow at moscow's local airport. a french state media report 2 years later and 2016 noted that the old maritime france around the former total ceos, mysterious death, and paris is seeming lack of interest in the incident. even after moscow sent over its own for volume investigation to france, was rather striking and it brought up the death in 1962 of italian oil giant in c. e o entered equal my to when his plane blew up during a landing in milan. and although it was attributed to bad weather at the time, 3 decades later, the sicilian mafia admitted to having blown the clean up. now in the high stakes were all the big oil. there are a lot of smoky mirrors and low blows for sure. and things aren't always what they seem to be at 1st plant. but as we've also seen with a recent sabotage at the north stream pipelines,

the closer the energy is to russia and to russian interests, the more incoming fire it seems to take these days. beijing is set to host high level talks between japanese and chinese. top diplomats. this though will be the 1st face to face in 3 years and it comes to my attention. so for japan's plans to restrict semiconductor manufacturing equipment exports to china, a curbing beijing's ability to make advance chips for its high tech sector. but earlier in the program, we had a cdc and report i didn't pay shall with us. and he was saying that both countries are very important to each other, but they do have a few issues. well, the 2 countries are neighbors. so, so technically they're important to each other and that the bilateral relationship should start itself should serve the common interest. but the japan has been really taking top positions on certain issues towards china such as the south and east china sea. and always to also say that there are many other issues such as the

island and the tie. one question, as well as the situation ukraine could be discuss, it's kind of restrictions all the exports of 23 types of semiconductor manufacturing equipment. and this is really comes out one day before the foreign ministers, japanese for a ministers visit to china. so it's really not normal and certainly it's kind of a cold war mentality and the action of unilateralism and all the reason for that is just to find and reason an excuse to bolster its defense capacity capacity. as you said, it's also the, the agenda from the west seeking alliance, which is the purpose of it is to contain china. ah, the head of india's flagship airline has insisted that it will continue to conduct flights of a russian space, despite pressure from certain western partners. the ceo of air india adamantly

defended the company's decisions saying it's well simply a matter of economics. if that's the way the winds are blowing and it is most economical. if we prevent certain carriers from over flying certain places, it doesn't necessarily stop people moving. it just changes where they're moving through potentially the chief off and india he defended the right of air india to fly through russian skies in this cells on the pool to interview to the telegraph. the journalist with the telegraph and interviewed mister wilson, he basically was giving him the logic that if you're flying or russia, then you're basically helping russia fund the war in ukraine to which sha, mr. wilson raised strongly, ah, have rubbish all those cleans. in fact, i remember most of the west in a line, they have quoted flying through russia, ukraine as well as bender who was and essentially what's that done is it has made

the hours longer. it has made the dig, it's more expensive. needless to say, more feel well already met, a shortage of feel was not insistently also us ever and line. they were approached western government saying that an airline which is flying through the russian sky should be prohibited for landing western soil. now when they seeing you that india and china, they companies have an unfair advantage. foreign airlines using russian air space on flights to and from the us are gaining a significant competitive advantage over us carriers in major markets, including china and india. this situation is directly to the benefit of foreign airlines and at the expense of the u. s. as a whole, with fewer connections to key markets, fewer high paying airline jobs. so you're paying as far as a east to west. the road from east to west is, can send the best possible way,

is flying through the giant territory of russia. what it does is it makes it shorter, it makes it cheaper. but as far as india and china are concerned, they've not signed up to the sanctions. so these 2 may be able to use this route. but interesting how in a sense of entitlement, they think that it's so key for eastern airlines to suffer as much as western airlines and why perhaps it's dying to think the other way the uganda has announced its sending $5000.00 troops to the neighboring democratic republic of congo in an effort to restore peace near the rondon border, you've got a president has emphasized that the soldiers main task will be to restore order and not to engage in fighting any militant group. members of the d. c says, are supported by everyone that we are going to be in the gun richer area,

not in order to find the m 23, but to act as a neutral force, as the congo is used, the time to sort out their political problems unless we are attacked, we are not there to fight. fighting may come later if one of the non state groups doesn't accept based on what we all regard as reasonable conditions. you're going to troops or enter the day off the town of bona gunnar on friday, which is near the borders of both uganda and rwanda. a troop. so serving under the auspices of the east african community in which the 3 countries are member states. the soldiers are expected to oversee the withdrawal of the m 23 militant group off for a reason. peace accord was signed. now, local residence in uganda, they say the peacekeeping efforts will be costly but necessary to restore peace in the region and ensure the safety of their own nation. it would for them to deploy the i'm a there, then there was part of it. it's the expense in cutting on what on deploying the

pdf solely us. so my opinion is i think it's a really great experience to, to deploy the media though they are helping to quite who also it was we were gonna assist. you are very careful about police. i mean, right now me as a bus and i think it's very okay for them to jump them from them from me here. i'm just going to run here just about wrapping up this our live broadcast from moscow. what else to national for me will read to show you the entire news team here. thanks for joining us. we return soon. in fact, that will be at the top of the a

few with greater finland to the euros. the nazi theory of racial superiority, finish style. for years of caribbean ss, occupation, 14 concentration camps, 30 full prisoner of war, labor camps. 10 prisons, a little stone level. she's the media and you're still in the city, but even the, the chest, the leading it all and i could, elephants been listening. it was going to city approximately 25000 people went through the audio kind of go finish camps according to official figures. his most stuck dumbly low tech. if the ship did you do it in like it. medina, shariska not yet a stuff. so again, kircher sent me an here with salmon disease, forced labor torture by the warden. super myoshi was eating up

a lot of blood. it also need you to keep it. you got that? he said you got to move it off with his 9 push that sees up a good question. the do duty good. he doesn't go those thousands of testimonies of crimes and the impunity of criminals. when you've got here, you know, wanted to get us be a good idea. yeah. what a good i feel. it's not why me did it say good. you got to really interesting because i'm in yet. that was a lot. hm. mm. who used to see me if i teach leeway living on cmr like easily neobitz get people know lucille is her flip of not all of them here is what year. but he thought he think it's a building up. would you move in your home also with enough video.
