an insatiable drive to maintain their global agenda. india's flagship airline and 5th, it will continue flights over russian aerospace this by pressure from western partners with the new report claims the central african republic is in a dire situation. near half the population faces food insecurity. we speak to the press secretary for the company's president to lay the blame on countries which come to the nation poverty. news of our land is rich and gold, diamonds, iron manganese, in oil. this should have made the population of the central african republic prosperous. but unfortunately, we see how some nations are plunging our country into poverty. midday and fog. it's at midnight in jakarta, and 8th in the evening. here in moscow. welcome to the global news roundup. on our

team. we begin with breaking news. the head of a prominent monastery in key f, which has been at the center of a crack dawn by ukrainian authorities of ritz traditional ties to russia, has appeared before a court occurred just hours after metropolitan puzzle was placed under house arrest . last, cross live not to our senior correspond murat, gauss, d of hi there, murat. yeah, this story's been bubbling away for days. how's that? we've seen attempts to evict clergy from the side. we've seen people standing in front of doors, preventing them from doing that. and now a court appearance for the monasteries head bring us up to speed while the this is the 2nd court appearance now for metropolitan. pavel who is the head of ukraine's largest monastery, the key of picturesque monastery which is part of the ukrainian or the doe orthodox

church. the largest religious grouping in ukraine, and also under unprecedented pressure even the attack physical attack by the ukrainian government, which is determined to break it down. seeing that as, as pro russian, the metropolitan himself, metropolitan puddle of was taken to a hearing, arrested by the gradient security services taken to a hearing where he was charged on 2 counts, 1st of all, for inciting, into religious hatred. but also up for rejecting the premise of russian aggression . these are 2 charges that have being leveled against him during the fair, his 1st hoot appearance, he felt ill. it was taken to hospital and then forcefully brought back by ukrainian security service agents. evidently, have they see him as that much of a threat. he himself denies all charges. usually i

have done nothing or would be accusing me off. this is a political matter. i have never been on the side of aggression. i'm against aggression now, i mean a crane. this is my land seem to have lost the connection. in murat, if you can hear me, you can go ahead with the, the rest of that say off dates. ok, we've just lost more out there. clearly, given if the rest of that opted on what is occurring to metropolitan puzzle. and of course, the fates of the church are very prominent at monastery in kiev. we will, we will try and get the rest of that

a little bit later because they are breaking news this hour. but for now, let's move on to more news. we are across this. our rushes deputy ambassador to the u. n. s. told our t western powers are hypocritical to last shots are more schools, proposal to station nuclear weapons on the territory of its allied bella roof stating the u. s. has long stationed its nuclear arms and nato countries near russia's borders. the west is trying to act within the concepts of rules based international order, where it's all, it's all alone 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 1000000000 by any price. they do not hesitate to act. and i very much colonial or neo colonial

logic in deploying nuclear weapons in the western countries for many years for decades already. and then when the russia analysis simulate lance simply analysis, they already stops hysteria. many developing countries, especially weaker developing countries there of course, aware of the possible consequences of the criticism also of washington economic consequences, political consequences, financial consequences during a un security council meeting on friday rushes on. buster bustling, the ben jet pointed on it that russia had long demand that the u. s. withdraw any nuclear weapons had, had in other countries. he said moscow cannot stand by now. as nato countries conduct exercises in the use of nuclear arms. this 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, or turkey and other nato countries. recall that poland also agreed 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 groups. and del ruth agreeing to host those tactical nuclear weapons. now, many us aligned 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 took 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 u. s. policy as been aimed at trying to dictate and control other countries and escalate tensions around. the world. zeppelin is thrown at 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 attitudes 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. while dmitri pollyanna ski again added that western partners have been to planting their own military resources to fuel the ukrainian conflict, she's throwing off the run by you will you compare it to the pole of the western

world? and now, when the west has mobilized almost all its resources. so key was the man last again . and they are not able to do 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, and so then, of course, they proceed from the, from the concept of american exceptionalism. that united states has the right to do whatever he wants of the international arena. and now they view russia and china as a threats. they try to mobilize to problems. so these, these threats and they want everybody else to be silent. not so we fear on the side of russia and china. and i think that's the only probation of their foreign policy, right? mobile x like people leaving and on the separate planets, having the right to do what they, what they want in the country to,

to the others. the head of india is slang, ship or line has insisted it will continue to conduct flight. so we're rushing earth space, this spike pressure from western partners. the ceo of or india ultimately defended the company's decision, seeing it's 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. i think the chief off and india he defended the right of air india to flight through russian skies in this cells on the pool to interview to the telegraph. the journalist with the telegraph, who 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 closed it, flying through russia, ukraine as well as bended, who was, and essentially, what's that done is it has made the hours longer. it has made that big. it's more expensive. needless to say, more feel well already there's a shortage of feel was now interestingly, also us ever and line. they've approached western government saying that an airline which is flying to the russian sky should be prohibited for landing western soil. now what they saying is that india and china that 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 you as 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 toward the giant territory of russia. what does it it makes it shorter, it makes it cheaper. but as i, as in india and china and so they've not signed up to the sanctions. so they still may be able to use this route. but in testing how in a sense of entitlement, they think that it's okay for ra, eastern airlines to suffer as much as western airlines. and why perhaps it's dying to think the other way. it appears a new global trend is gathering pace. d dollarization following a number of recent high profile business deals where the dollar was ditched.

india's new trade policy now have features to decision to move away from using the greenback in foreign contracts. the legislation is set to come into effect this month on is aimed at driving india's foreign trade on giving a booster domestic production. it comes as the repay is being used more often across the world with 18 countries, having now adopted it in cross and border trade with new deli, including moscow pivoting away from america, reserve currency. earlier we spoke to public policy and business on this, vic from limb say, who say the wave of d dollarization is enlarging rapidly. there is a larger, a wave of d dollarization happening around the world. i mean it's, it's, it's, it's been years now that the knowledge had him and he was there and has been there for some time now. and that seems to be, you know, kind of leaving a bit of late and, and in the wave is getting stronger every month or every year. let's pretend that

we, there's a general trend worse, multi bowlers. hm. happening. and with that multiple lives in currency, of course, the currency mechanism and global trade mechanisms also have to therefore become a multi pooler that's essentially the reason 70 years back. and there was in the mix and shock and before that the britain words and all these were postway war kind of mechanisms are just structured with the vest and perspective, the world has changed a lot. now china and india and lot of asian country has gone to boot a large and so no other country is also underwood. so general, democratization of currency, gender, democratization of trade, a larger mighty ball environment seems to be emerging. and the currency multiple reservation is just a function of that as a, that's where it is, a natural function which is happening at this part of time, i guess israel's new government is alma, quote, run page against schuman right, start characterization coming from the head of

a prominent international and you with the current state of the israeli government and the tax on the dish or in particular, we see that this is not a human was complied government. this is a government that's actually on the rampage against human rights domestically against its own people. in israel, well, the criticism from the watchdog comes after protests erupt, it across israel following benjamin netanyahu is proposed judicial reforms. who then in fact, made a new turn. after a public outcry, the legislation is aimed at limiting the power of the country supreme court and allowing the government to select judges is really foreign ministry. hit back at the comments made by human rights watch calling the country and example of democracy. the remarks are an amazing example of how bias she in the organizational israel is a strong and vibrant democracy. the demonstrate is over the last few months or an impressive example of it. hundreds of thousands of people are manifesting in the

streets. no violence protected by the police. this is how real democracy works. it is yet another example of an organization that targets israel on anything without the minimum understanding of fairness. but earlier we spoke to the side, our account, washington bureau chief for the tourism base palestinian deli, i'll could, he agrees with h r w's assessment, but sees israel will never be held accountable. anyone has always been a human right. they're be, was rampaged in. i guess the palestinian, you know, i mean it is great that we see demonstrations and, and israel in pursuit of reversing lease and judicial reforms from time to time. we see some statement there. i managed to give the spokesman last week or the week before to say some strong words. again, it is really abusive, but it never really go beyond that. i don't know how it will be held accountable as long as it is being protected completely by then. i think the burka, i mean,

it really should be held accountable by, let's say, cutting off aid then as they supplies israel with $3800000000.00 a year and armed alone. so that's a, that's quite a leverage that they can use. i don't see this car and we'll be accountable. i don't see it's really reversing course. i see. unfortunately, that will move forward and will probably implement these sit and do these for reforms. arm conflicts and more natural disasters mean the situation in the embattled central african republic remains dire this year. that is, according to a new report by the us agency for international development. the government report claims over 3 at 1000000 people in the c, a r r in need of humanitarian aid, and predicts nearly half the country's population will face severe food in security this year. it's also crippled by conflicts between militant groups which the place

are almost $60000.00 at people in january alone this year. while they yeah, press secretary to the countries presidency. it's still possible for the country to be impoverished despite being rich and natural resources. news of all our land is rich in gold, diamonds, iron, manganese, and oil. when it comes to agriculture, we can grow cotton coffee and produce wood products. this should have made the population of the central african republic prosperous. but unfortunately, we see how some nations are plunging our country into poverty. it has not gone anywhere. we still live in an unstable situation with the crisis, rebel groups and military formations. a president says those are the reasons for the continuing poverty in the country for the last 60 years he has been facing one crisis after another. the proposed solutions have never worked. president tor dara has decided to ask some allied countries for help in combating the rebel groups.

the 1st country to respond was russia. the people of c a r are really grateful for this input to bring peace back to our country. all the african countries agree that we lack technologies that we need to develop bilateral, mutually beneficial cooperation with other countries. and the un charter allows that any sovereign state, like ours has the right to cooperate with any other un member. nobody can prevent us from working with friendly countries and brotherly people. we count on technologies that will help us to use our resources. africans have realized that the c a r is ready to collaborate with any friendly country that are open to mutually beneficial cooperation. we have the resources you have, the technology's. let's sit at the table and discuss how we can move forward together. today, the central african republic has become the object of slander and lies it is associated with war, but it is not true. the c a r needs investors. we are open to any cooperation based

on mutual respect. and i can say that we intend to develop this way so that russian investors, economists, leading enterprises come to the c a r, so that they help us use the natural wealth. our country has including agriculture . we want to move from traditional and mechanical coming to industrial agriculture . we want to develop our minerals with industrial methods. that's what we're aiming for, but there are lie surrounding our country. western media are trying to discourage those who want to come here. we are ready to work with all businesses and countries of good will who will cooperate with us on mutually beneficial terms. well that's returned to our top story. now the head of a prominent monastery in kiev, which has been of the center of a crack done by ukrainian authorities over its traditional ties to russia, has appeared in court. it comes just hours after he was placed under house arrest or senior correspondent morocco gosti of is following the story. murat,

indeed it's been bubbling away for days that situation with attempts to evict the monks. repel. but now this court appearance, tickets through it for the cause of terence, is about deciding whether to arrest metropolitan, pavel, who is the head of ukraine's largest monastery, which is the ukrainian government he's, is trying to evict the key of the chest, love rock of which is part of the ukranian orthodox church, the largest religious grouping in ukraine, and what o and one which for, for years now, ukraine has been pressuring and trying, attempting to shut down and to replace with, with more government friendly and more nationalist versions or flavors. all steel to door, all the dogs church, metropolitan paddle was taken forcefully by ukrainian security agents to

a 1st hearing where he felt ill. he was taken to hospital and then again, forcefully returned back to the courtroom where with it'll be decided and where he has heard the charges against him, which include, which include spreading into religious hatred as well as, as well as rejecting the premise of russian aggression which in ukraine are 2 crimes, he himself has, has denied all of these allegations, calling them politically motivated, which is what millions of ukrainians the faithful and the members of the ukrainian will to the orthodox church. also believe the scene at the monastery itself, ease is hectic. it, he said, the shop is through the faithful to orthodox church, worshippers across the world, not only in ukraine and russia, you have, you have people praying, trying to resist this, if it should, and around them are dan,

a dancing nationalists, taunting insults which we won't repeat all met charging insults at these people at the monks as well as at all people of fuel. the docks of the orthodox faith of the the situation is such that for, for 4 years now, the ukrainian government has tried to destroy the ukrainian orthodox church, which it is always seen as to unruly to independent and with very different beliefs to the nationalist minded policies. in ukraine impala and ukraine now that have gripped u. k. and they've been trying to replace them with the orthodox church of ukraine, a somewhat new organization, which is claiming that it is the only legitimate church in ukraine, in which teachers are very different religion. but more to ukrainian than much ukrainians. a used to you have the head of the ukranian of the orthodox church of

ukraine coming out and cooling. everyone else will other worshippers of the various orthodox creeds, pieces of fecal matter, and even worse than they will. so teach, the ukrainian should never breed with russians, should marian have children with russians and that ukrainians to keep the blood pure should only intermix among amongst themselves. you also have the a presidential aid of, of leukemia. zelinski come out and say that this is the perfect opportunity to crack down and to cleanse the orthodox church. 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. what is startling is that there has been very little reaction to abroad from yes. with such such obvious. and then you face statements that they want to get rid of an entire branch of the orthodox church, the biggest grouping religious grouping, and ukraine no less. earlier over the past month, this pressure against them has mounted and mounted. you had a ukrainian s. b, u agents, government security agents, a raid and search churches all over the country. looking full pro russian material links between us, between the clergy and russia. evidently, judging by the fact that they haven't shed on their findings, they haven't shared those that they haven't found much. nevertheless, that hasn't changed. vladimir zelinski is, or his administrations,

or the government views on trying to trying to shut down the ukranian orthodox church. and they have only ramped up the pressure or i thanks very much for bring us through all that are t senior correspondent, morocco, steve, where going underground again, next twit, today's gas that former soviet analyst in this c i a, it's an interesting sit down and begins rob, ahead with ah, ah

ah, i'm african redundancy and welcome back to going underground, broadcasting all around the world from you buying the u. e. nature so called mainstream media and forgotten all about it with the greatest eco terra atrocity of this century. with september's blowing up the north stream pipelines applying energy to europe, countless lives are lost from the resulting instability,

new prices, and the cia with a terrorist to go to one of the greatest journalists in the world. sy hersh with julian assange allegedly being tortured today in london. we will perhaps have to wait a while before new wiki leaks cables. or if the cia is at one with a strategy of 20 believe, can state department seen as the leading leading on the war on russia through ukraine, dr. melvin goodman with cia decades. and is now professor of international relations at john hopkins university and senior fellow at the center for international policy joins me from washington. d. c. melvin. thank you so much for coming on the show. you don't believe sy hersh a story that the north stream was blown up by biden blink. and i knew linda solid archers pieces for the last few years that have been based on very little evidence whatsoever. which is why he has trouble getting published in washington. and london, and he had to write his recent piece on some stack and he writes without evidence. he says he has anonymous sources. he says can deal his sources. and the recent

piece was typical. it was based on things that didn't happen. a joint press conference that didn't happen at joint statement. there wasn't made. a lack of media attention to show says visit. this isn't evidence of anything. when i look at the extreme pipeline, my 1st question would be, who benefits and who loses? and so i never thought the russians were, because there was a $11000000.00 investment, and i think they were gonna block their own investment, the major gainer and all this was of course, ukraine. because it forces russia to use the pipeline that runs through the ukraine . ok, before we, before we believe we have the desire to new york times reports that sy hersh alleges were fed to them by the white test. what do you mean sy? hersh has been a discredited journalist in recent years. did you not read is abu ghraib revelations during the iraq war 20 years ago? if you don't read itself about the chemical i'm talking about, i'm not talking about the older sy hersh. ok. what about the chemical weapons in

syria? you know, it's what about.
