4:02 pm
killing. what have you done? i brought a statue that exploded. who gave it to you? can i tell you later? cuz i'm standing right in front of the cafe, where the explosion took place. and you can see behind me some flowers that locals have laid down there to pay their respects to the fallen war journalists of lad lend to tar sky, who many had lots of reverence for russia's anti terrorism committee. has declared this a terrorist attack organized by key f with the help of agents from the anti corruption foundation, which is an extremist organization in the russian federation, founded by the imprisoned russian anti government activists. alex say, an of all the now, in connection to this, russia's investigative committee confirmed its detention of daria trap of a that's important to understand because there were reports in the media saying that she was detained for hours and hours even before we got this confirmation. and
4:03 pm
the reason why it's connected to this is because she had a connections, according to these media reports to the anti corruption foundation. she had been arrested several times in the past to an anti government demonstrations. and according to these reports, she also had been sending money to the antique corruption foundation, again an organization which is considered an extremist organization within the russian federation. the russian interior ministry even released a video confession in which daria trap of a says that she was the one who brought this explosive statuette that i witnesses said they saw a girl bring in to this event key of denied any involvement in this explosion. in this incident, but that's not exactly out of the ordinary because last year when another high profile russian journalist, daria do gonna, i was assassinated key. i've also rejected any sort of having a hand in it, or any sort of participation in the organization of that assassination. but of course we're still investigating this story. we're still following the latest
4:04 pm
updates and we'll bring you the latest as they become available. is video shows the moments of the blast or the cafe, whether a porter had been hosting an event, a friend of a suspect in exclusive to r t. i said that she was shocked when she recognized daria in a video, hunting the statute to, to tasking. little after she did have opposition use. sometimes she went to protests, but there were no signs of radicalism. she has been living in moscow for the last 6 months. she sat your work to lots, but i didn't ask where she worked, which ended a week ago. she said that she was not go into saint peters back anytime soon. we discuss how much we wanted to made, but she said that unfortunately, she wanted me go into saint petty's back in the near future. commit and med is quite a radical stop pie, didn't them? and believe it at 1st, i watched a video with the hand in of the stature it dasher has a very specific voice in intonation, and that's how i recognized her. i then made up my mind that this is most likely
4:05 pm
a true story. the kill jealous was a prominent figure in the online community of war. reporters, the 40 year olds, real name was that maxime of thoman and he was from the dumbass. he fought in the early stages of the conflict from 2014 to 2017, and the le ganske people's militia. that experience led to him becoming one of the most followed correspondence with an audience of over half a 1000000. russia's un envoy, his also commented on to task, is death saying, bet has been no condemnation of the killing from the international organizations that are supposed to protect journalists. there was an assassination of russian blogger and journalist whose, whose nickname is that the burskey he, his real name is, i mean, the suspect was apprehended, and she basically pleaded guilty. ah, no reaction we have from the international community or from the urine or journalist organizations on that crime. so we're still consider that to be
4:06 pm
a little bit, not a little bit, but the logic step selective. when, when we're assessing, assessing what happened to journalist here and there. so to see, sorry, we've all covered storage i'm, i appreciate it, but not a single world from those of these issues the, to the should have commented on it. so i have the will have corbin to, to look for it was so you were not the russian driven just now we're at the point where a russian military blogger flatten petoskey, who covered the conflict. ukraine was killed in a bombing of a cafe in st. petersburg over the weekend that also injured a couple of dozen other civilians. and the reaction from western officials has been radio silence. you think that despite its ongoing differences with russia, the western establishment could at least agree that terrorist acts in the middle of a major city center is still worthy of condemnation. after all,
4:07 pm
we're still talking here about the same folks who spent 2 decades kicking down doors around the entire world under the guise of fighting a global war on terrorism. instead, what's in filling that vacuum of silence from western officials has been just a parade of western journalists, underscoring what they figure to be character flaws, as though they know the guy that could have what to the incident. have ellison is well known for being very aggressive, very pro war spy? does the e t each other? that's how one ukrainian official described a blast that killed a pro kremlin military blogger, he, and insulted on a regular basis, ukraine and ukrainians, and gathered up to more than half a 1000000 subscribers on telegram low. it is not surprising that he was a target. if the western prices going to start using a military conflict to minimize or excuse murder of citizens simply because they don't like their character or their opinions about the conflict. and that's
4:08 pm
a pretty perilously slippery slope for some members of the western press whose countries have been involved in various military conflicts like the us and who have held very strong views. that basically opens the door for every western opinion, journalist to be picked off by a party to the conflict who doesn't like what that journalist has to say. i mean, i'm pretty opinionated, should i like bomb proof, my windows or something. at this point, the bulgarian investigative journalist crystal grows of who was heavily featured in the recent academy award winning feature documentary film about russian opposition figure alexis avowedly, apparently thinks that some people are simply quote, legitimate targets for this kind of terrorism. he was a legitimate target, he was a, an officer and an intelligence officer and the propagandist of the same time. okay, so he's trying to argue that somehow the cafe wasn't as a civilian target. that is somehow transformed into some kind of a military base in the middle of st. petersburg or something. look,
4:09 pm
even if an american general walks into the ritz carlton hotel right next to the pentagon, it doesn't suddenly turn the hotel into a legitimate target for missiles or bombs by some figure representing a country that has a, has a beef with washington. and speaking of which there's a lot of media rhetoric playing on petoskey, pro russia stance in his coverage. but there was no shortage of outrage from the western press. and officials over the murder of washington post columnist jamal casual g inside the saudi embassy in istanbul, a few years ago. and that's despite his longstanding activism against the saudi leadership. or what about the terrorist attacks on the shuffle yet? do cartoonists and journalists at that particular satirical magazine in paris a few years ago. now they were really activist. and to say the least yet that act was widely condemned by the wes,
4:10 pm
a whole bunch of western leaders came to paris to march arm in arm with a bunch of protesters chanting jo, 3 shabbily. i am charlie i and the people who were attacks. so the prominent washington institute for the study of war, that's a think tank, whose board members include american generals, jack, gene and david betray us as well as washington's former ambassador to the united nations. kelly craft, previously qualified tazarsky as a prominent russian military blogger, whose work they apparently considered worthy of informing their research. and now it seems like there's an effort underway by some members of the western establishment to rewrite history in order to minimize and reduce act of terrorism, all because of a russian whose views they don't like, happened to be the target political honest dmitri babich phase, the west only speaks up in defense of journalists who promotes the mainstream agenda. well, it is clear that this was
4:11 pm
a very gruel act. indeed that there is a factor because if they just take this person, a lot of them that are ski, they could kill him in song choir boys. you know, he lo and then it would be of course, a terrible grant. but it would not be so awful, so hateful, the perpetrator. so this there is that they deliberately, a tried to make as many victims as possible. well, we know a lot of don't have his mother, unfortunately in the water 2025 years lot. so joining us were killed in russia, ukraine, but somehow, you know, the west, all the pays attention to the murders of journalists, which support the west. the task was of the same time, a man of the people, a person of tragic faith with some terrible experiences in his wife such as james,
4:12 pm
i trust more. and at the same time, he wasn't intelligent person. he was an intellectual. so it's, it's a terrible cravy that's such a fascinating character. such an interesting man was killed a website for a closer look at our top story today. the explosion in st. pete is the killed russian chorus program to flatten. i've learned petoskey to find out more about the report is background, the eye witness accounts and footage from the seat of the time. because when i get the latest update from ongoing investigation, all that and much more on our tea rushes un envoy has defended the country security council presidency for this month, saying that moscow's critics are defying the established well daughter upheld by the united nations itself. thus lena bens year has laid out the agenda on tons of questions from journalists doing media conference in new york. some countries are
4:13 pm
pretending they can decide their own will who, who they want or do not want to be in the chair of the president. so the security council, as long as the current world war, the with the you and the security council stance, there will be no change in the rules of procedure. unlike some countries who come up with such claims who are not always on as brokers. but i'm not even talking about the u. s. p r who's present seen the security council, and i recognize that when they were was professional. but the, some of the pretty justices i would say, just didn't to do likewise. they played with the rules and procedures of the security council and factually basically, the trampled the counselor. and that's all get more money or correspondence. caleb
4:14 pm
more pain. caleb. good to see if that what else that we heard from the russian on that today? well, as was stated, russia is a permanent member of un security council, that's the 15 member by that leads the united nations. and as a permanent member, they have the rights to a rotating position as president of the council. and today, russia, how the press conference beginning the month of april in which russia will have the presidency of the security council, however, a recurring theme, and the questions directed to the russian ambassador and anthea was whether or not russia could legitimately hold this position reporter after reporters seem to push forward the notion that somehow russia does not have the right to do what every other member of the security council can do and assume the president the council in a rotating position for a month. here is how those questions the us expects. our
4:15 pm
russia to be spreading disinformation about ukraine. in fact we, we think just the opposite. now actually, many media outlets already started suspected that russia is going to abuse the presidency of the security council. my think that for these articles on these opinions or rather a gesture of despair rather than something serious intangible, can you understand? normal citizens feel offended, that as a country can share the security council when it's leader is under arrest, warrant by the i. c. besides being stupid, so let's put things straight. no, that is also also an illegitimate decision meals. now 0, nothing to us for. and i think that those that encourage the decision,
4:16 pm
perhaps they all to do to get they do. now, in addition to the complete complete repetition of these questions about whether or not russia had the right to speak before the council and to be the president for the month of april. the questions got even more ridiculous at one point. this is one of the questions that was directed at the russian ambassador many people quoting me last month had nightmare sometimes about nightmare, about nuclear war. i sleep well because i know that at least us, we're not asking for the nuclear war when a threatening nuclear world is all this narrative that russia is threatening to work with the nukes. is a part of a propaganda as well. we've been saying long time consistently that, that it is not in our military doctrine,
4:17 pm
which provides for very few specific cases when, when the nuclear weapons can be engaged. and that is definitely not the situation which, which is in our nuclear llc. now the press conference did go on for over an hour, and despite these ridiculous questions being directed at the ambassador from russia, there were a number of important points that were discussed. among them was the international sporting body and their efforts to isolate russia, forbidding rushes, national symbols, you know, talking about the removal of players who supports rush of intervention into ukraine . there was also discussion of hope that somehow about western leaders visiting china and perhaps china could use this as an opportunity to broker a peace agreement in ukraine. now the basset, or that he was skeptical about whether or not that could really go forward as western leaders seem to be firm in their position. and it doesn't seem likely that
4:18 pm
china is going to be able to weigh them to pursue the idea of a piece plan. now, another thing that was discussed was rushes increasing, move away from the dollar as a currency in global trade, and the rise, the alternative currencies and the alternative economy that is existing around the world as a result of us efforts to isolate, not just russia, but also china, and in addition to that, there was talk about the grain deal and the importance of getting the grain needed by those in the developing world that are expecting it, getting that grain to them and how the united states has not been fully cooperative . and not really living up to its words when it comes to working with russia to make sure the grain is delivered. so quite an important press conference. russia will be leading the un security council for the month of april, despite loud western objection. that was the opening of rushes presidency for the
4:19 pm
month. caleb and thanks for those details. those are the he's a kayla more than with the recap. of the 2nd president, richard typo. the one is that his doors are now closed to the us to the us ambassador to anchorage f flight. he goes and meets with mister, come all shame on you. use your brain. you are an ambassador. your interlocutor here is the president. how will you ask for a meeting with the president after this? our doors are close to him now. why to let him know his limits? there were marks follow a meeting between the u. s. envoy and a turkish opposition parties top candidate late last month, presidential and parliamentary elections in turkey all scheduled for may 14th. before our news editor at a harbor tv believes the diplomatic formal to interfere in the internal affairs of countries to initiate the relationship with we and becomes about their initiate bank situation. initiating in the inner politics over the country is that
4:20 pm
you may remember the present by cause we are trying to be countries world. this is a lot of issue $4600000.00 barrels per day. the total reduction will be by one until the end of 2023. this measuring russia have agreed to take part. we are not advisable. let's be honest. what the saudi said? well, i think people, when, when in the middle east, they're not taking no does anymore, did she from china came with a very welcomed with open arms. whereas waiting president to explain that all the exposing countries for the world's supply of energy important to be proactive rather than reactive when it comes to managing the global economic order is you know, 20 formative faith. and also the federal dollar to ron has vowed to avenge the kinds of the attack a terrorist attacks which will not go announced that the radio force as well after an air strike on fridays to syria, which to wrong has nothing to. that's the only way you can get hitting the
4:21 pm
confrontation with another state that the city of some of the place. you know, this is of axis of scenario. sometimes americans also utilize when you have domestic problems, create a loss of attacking. and even in country they have to, i say, until they called on heights for many digits and less than governments. not only do not condemn any aggression, not only they don't raise issues with this type of illegal behavior that actually supporting israel. but iranian patients, i think, is going to have limitations. so slow later, you may decide to change course may decide to overtly respond to these type of migrations. and that's not going to be good for it. or is
4:22 pm
there a support is in the rest? in a strange turn of events, an unknown person or group of people have locked monks inside of a building of the key of pictures. glover and kenneth church. clergy have reacted to the incident, but we're not talking to you at all to crime. you are the representatives of the police, know they are holding somebody insight. we don't have facilities right now to release them. just tell me you're here all the time. you saw who did this, close this building. a lot of people in. we didn't see the understand this people are that as hostages, this is terrorism. there's a state sponsored terrorism. your witnesses, please do what is necessary, is that it shows the lock that was placed on the door at the monastery. according

4:24 pm
are totally barberick from any point of view from the point of christian well use from the point of religious freedoms. from the point of view. well, simple humanitarian with they are ready to go for just freight take, you know, all the congregations, all the church, they just keep mapping a brief overview, creating all those church summaries. you will disappear, that nobody knows. busy where they are, so this is total for your 2 repression. so the, all the craig and church and the, these all is done with a feeling of torture on a, a saw it use elimination of the law like spiritual
