[000:00:00;00] a, a legitimate legal classified pentagon document does not reveal anything new as a question, give me about whether these documents, being widely reported by the western media, are actually authentic us republican center, marco rubio wald, frances prison back wrong that the us could remove it, support for you claim and leave europe on his own to face the conflict trailer conduct a larger scale, mostly drills near taiwan as the islands regional leader comes back from her tour of the us where she met with house speaker kevin mccarthy.

ah live from moscow. this is our team, my name is laura from army in 30 minutes of news and views are now questions remain about the authenticity of a massive league of a legit pentagon documents being widely covered by the western media. in response, russia has noticed that it would not be an unprecedented case of washington spying on his allies. between these creatures, nothing should be excluded. there have been some interesting leaks. everyone is analyzing them and they are being widely discussed. the fact that the u. s. has been spying on some world leaders, especially european ones, has been revealed not just once. there have been many scandals. there is also a tendency to blame everything on russia. it's a common obsession right now. as course live now there are 3 correspond shay

bows. shay, thanks for joining us again. i say what do we know about these? reported leeks so far. thanks moran. well, we know that they were initially released or discovered on the relatively unknown, at discord and 4 shots. so it's, there were there for some time apparently before they were picked up. and the new york times did a story on this last friday. and it detailed, you know, the leak of over a 100, very detailed documents covering a huge range of topics. and the western media has really picked up the ball and run with, with these as authentic. and we can have a look at exactly what they're saying, right? now more, more details are emerging about how in a parent trove intelligence documents leaked under social media sites over the last few months. with the justice department investigation already underway. classified government documents covering not only ukraine, but other parts of the world have started showing up on social media. this appears

to be a major compromise of pentagon secrets. they describe a range of us intelligence activities, including american spying operations around the world and the wrong in north korea's nuclear programs. time. something sensitive like this comes out of the pentagon leaks from the pentagon. it has taken very seriously by the administration . yes. so the content read is, is very wide plans about ukraine's air preparations for a, a much vaunted or calming a counter offensive. the papers also mention what the western intelligence agencies would call signals intelligence, which is basically information that has been harvested through spying and spying on their allies. also with south korea. and israel boat being mentioned air, you know, the western media is talking about dismay among these countries, what the sources are all listed as anonymous on cnn, et cetera. so,

and we're kind of watching to see, are they going to be any more estatements or so korea, the only countries actually made an official statement. big hitters like israel of the u. k. remaining quiet on it. of course, ukraine has road in and suggested that the whole affair is essentially an elaborate a russian dis, information campaign to distract and deflect from a confidence in their upcoming offensive. we can actually have a listened to a what signals are coming out from a key of now. the aim of secret data leaks is obvious. divert attention, cast doubts, and mutual suspicions. so discord, it's an ordinary game of russian secret services show the thought of chattered going on. but is there any under thaniel whether these documents are even authentic? well, of course, this is the, the big question and this claim and counter claim. but i suppose we have to sort of

look at the way the western media has really swallowed this hook, line, and sinker. there's very little questioning in the western media now as to the voracity, despite the fact that any confirmation of their authenticity is essentially from anonymous. sources and i suppose we have to think of, you know, the same western media has been very shy to question the u. s. government on, for example, the nord stream affair. and they're very silent on that. but on this particular subject, they're very vocal and seem to be, you know, promoting the idea that they are definitely real. so i think we have to kind of be skeptical and have a look at this as it develops. and it's probably a story that will room along for some time. so i think, you know, the main view is take it with a pinch of salt for now and let's see how it develops. so we'll keep you informed in date indeed. show you both. great. so the 3 c cause one of the fear time independent, gf, is alice and also peppy. escobar earlier told me that there are numerous

inconsistencies in the documents. look at many you and so our viewers remember mad magazines, spy against spy cartoon in the sixty's. now that was the black roll and the white crow and it was absolutely delirious. and this is something like that. but the problem is everybody on sweeter and telegram look at the secret in cell, which is not that secret when you actually read it. there are a lot of inconsistencies. the language is pretty weird. did the nominations of the weapons sometimes is. ussr and russia sometimes is natal. it's not coherent at all . so you can see there is some st george about and so you, we don't know the details. of course the pentagon is desperate to spin. this is a fake, but we know it's not a fake. it was leaked probably by an insider until the so trying to find out who leaked it. is that important? is it really important?

who leaked it as opposed to what was leaks? let's try to find the culprit for this thing. a new, a new chelsea, manning you know, and then is everything that is going to happen is going to be chelsea manning $2.00 . but nobody is going to discuss the actual facts and the facts spell out. i'm the american. they have a form. it's inside the russian ministry of defense according to this document. so we don't know if this is true or not. so that would be lovely to have an answer from the russia. nice. ok, my if i, if true. i mean, that's a thought even was in the allegation, was it said that because they wanted russia to shake the tree and see who would, who would fall out of the panic. yeah, cause panic up, cause scales. it's thing, fire of scales. we can have one for a get that in, obviously. and so that's it. you know, so did, according to their documents, assuming that they didn't pass despite the fact that they took the right to christ

on taiwan. no, that was the would be to think that we, europeans must be comfortable on this topic and take our q from the yes agenda and chinese overreaction. so mac, all just figured out apparently that france can have a foreign policy that's independent and not aligned with either the east or the west. not sure how we managed to miss that lesson earlier since michael claims to be a big admirer of former french president shot the girl who kept france. other nato was built a relationship with moscow and kicked the americans out of france when they wanted to stick around indefinitely after the 2nd world war. like they have in germany. it's just about michael didn't have that lesson at top of mind prior to the ukraine conflict popping off. he may been able to convince his european counterparts not to jump off an economic cliff and harm their own energy supply in industry. just because the u. s. wanted them to mistakenly buying into this idea that it would bring the russian economy to its knees as branch economy minister believe all the

mass said mac, who said that european nations should also reduce their dependence on the quote, extra territoriality of the u. s. dollar. and avoid becoming, quote, vassals, macros. new found concern about u. s. economic over each might have something to do with the potentially devastate impact on europe of biden's inflation reduction acts particularly on european industry. as mac home basically begged us lawmakers to recognize during his visit to washington last december, specifically on you want it. and what has happened in written months is a challenge for us, because we're starting to how differences and annotations, and the cost of the war. and ukraine is not the same in europe and in the united states. but most importantly, the choices that have been made for which i shall goes, in particular, the inflation reduction act. all the chips act. i chose that will split the west macro renewed interest in french strategic autonomy might also have something to do

with the fact that china sent him off with a really nice hearty gift of a massive new deal. beijing has agreed to buy a 160 new commercial aircraft from the french, headquartered european aerospace conglomerate air bus, whose chinese production is also now set to double with a 2nd assembly line in change in that also has airbus ahead of its american rival, bowie in china and gives europe a major new advantage in that fierce economic competitive do awfully. which is really just an extension of u. s. and european interest since boeing and airbus is so economically critical. so heading home with this new yet from china for the french economy at a time when the u. s. side has given europe a string of headaches and empty promises. it's not hard to imagine why michael might suddenly be seeing the praises of keeping his geopolitical dating options open. early i spoke with the vice chairman of the shanghai center of

a rim package international studies nelson wong whitehead this year, he said that europe is a hostage to companies where the u. s. demand complete support. there is no need for china to, to try and separate europe from america. because china look at the world in a totally different approach that fire respecting everybody's interest and to, to look after its own inches to as well. but most importantly, i think that china is presenting to the world as a different kind of global power. it's an interesting so that is how this is operating out. you know, we had of ursula on the line. we had macro visits in china, shortly after she's in pain, was here in russia, you speaking with, but in the u. s. seems to think, well,

my crossing to think that the u. s. is using the e as in vasa as a, as a way to sort of, you know, push the u. s. is terms, do you think there's that could be a possible that you think that could be a possible know of advantage for the us if it has the e. u, as as a power piece? well, i think, or europe has been understood to be supporting the u. s a whether it's willing lay or unwilling lay earl or being held hostage in a sense that's up to everybody. his interpretation. i think europe has been taken hostage in my view or when it comes to the ukrainian conflict, or you know, to, to be all the us side to support you crying in sales. but i think this trip of president mc wrong in china has reviewed that the europeans, or at least mac chrome,

being one of the european leaders is coming to his census. that it should actually look after their own interest. as i always say, facts are facts. because inflation is going up in europe and the cost of energy is going up like crazy of the last year. so it's people's lives were talking about and when you have people that are not happy was what they have. the politicians, they are, the leaders were have to think and to do something about it. so i know has been conducting large scale military drills near taiwan as the islands regional leader has returned from a trip to the us, which included a meeting with congressional. how speaker kevin mccarthy. the all games all taking place in space and was a surrounding tie. one knew me as soon as he gets along with destroy a ship, signed an aircraft carrier,

all taking part in the drills on the last day of the exercise is a u. s. naval ship sale through the waters of the south china sea filings official say. the american vessel was providing support and coordination of the taiwanese forces in case of an armed confrontation of russia's feet also carried out exercises in the sea of japan. also, the japanese leader visited keith cdsi called us one who been explain the significance of these wargames this military very all happening in fly one sweet and also a balance i, one island and the eastern theatre command of the chinese people's liberation army . stay that they try to have what they call an approaching gesture around tie one island. on day 2, they said their focus was,

what was the so called simulated precision stripes. so this is very important because according to a research fellow of the academy of the military sciences of the p o h, this is the 1st time that a stimulated precision strike in on target. in ty, one was mention in its official public report, and the eastern command also released a read easy and a ation on sunday night about a simulated precision sprites. and we can see that the miss styles were launched upon the rocket, forced air force, and also maybe force and targets on several occasions in taiwan. and also earlier, you mentioned that this is also the 1st time that aircraft carrier name, the shunt don't participate in the military trails. so i think this meter clearly explain, explains the scale of the military trail is definitely not a

social democratic party has sounded the alarm about an increasingly pro room of child poverty in the country. it says that more than 20 percent of off in youth currently face impoverished conditions as the struggles with energy crisis and record high inflation. joining me now in the seat is also useful. miss karen, can i 0? karen, thank you so much for joining us here today. it's really a pleasure to talk to. these are interesting, but what do you make of these claims by the social or the social democrats and this poverty? i mean, is that really something that needs to be concerned? i mean, they say one in 5 youth could be affected the make up what definitely to has been a decline in purchase power, which didn't start last year. we have seen that in many countries, at least over the last 10 years, i would say for but next to the purchase power problem that was based

on rising living costs in particular rents. it's impossible to find an affordable apartment today in any of the biggest cities. as people move out into the countryside then if need it means they needed these 2 cars if both parents are working. so living costs are high and to that. and they said, then galloping installation ever since 2021, it started to become a problem. rising energy costs and add to that also data. austria is her hi text country. and i personally, i always said, i'm ready to pay any sort of taxes because we used to have a good public education system. we used to have a good public health than a good public transport system, but these days are gone. so if you want to day to race to 3 children with one income,

it's impossible with one rather to income. and there are lots of one parents and families where usually mothers, this is outside us. this adds to the problem and to the traditional family cohesion that is gone. so when you cannot afford to the public institutions tried counts on and you don't have a grandma, you don't have the larger, extended family that steps in. it becomes a problem. you know, a lot of the same media reports talk about the reason why the cost of energy is higher because of the special mercy opperation between russia and ukraine. but you yourself, so just now the stems away before this, all, you know, happened back to 21 where we had cove it, of course we had, you know, the supply chain issues. but what's happening now, does this, will this affect may be you said, you know, the way of life for australia, other europeans,

is the quality of life. don't go down to thing. well, i think too many people, it has already gone down on it sir. when last year i hate texas was the year 2021 in 2021. i had a cross income for the entire year of 18000 euros of these 18000 years. you pay around 3400 years for social security. so what remains of that your striker was about $1300.00 europe a month with children becomes difficult now and do, can you, you've recently moved to lebanon, i believe. no, not recently a year ago, a year ago. okay. or in a country that we've heard has been in the news of this last year or so going through not any political but economical crisis. how are things there as of now we don't really have woodstock hot news? is it? i mean, are they also having sort of problems because of energy or because of as a political problem,

the light of the social economic situation is the worst ever since lebanon most probably came into existence in the night in forty's, as a foreign country. i know about the latter, none of the night in eighty's, which was tough. i was teaching there during the war times and i'm glad there is no war because dies number of lebanese would tell you, it was better cheering the war. i don't share this kind of success and because i'm very glad that there are no booby trapped cars, that one that there is just general security. let's say bud line. it comes to the social economic situation. let me give you the figure of inflation r. 1000 lebanese pounds used to equal one u. s. dollar. still around 56 years ago, i used to take the bus from b route to the north with $1.10 and cleveland, even us. when i arrived to lebanon last year, in may,

it was about $30000.00 people in the band as $1.00. now it's beyond $100000.00 or so within a few hours, i have this, we had a percent inflation. it's galloping people who have no relative abroad, and the country only works why a remittances are. most of the families have at least one person in the golf, in europe, in north america, who stands back rehab $4500.00, whatever. which helps the rest of this incident of the minis. i, those have been in the sixty's though, that we should still be lebanese from the whole. i think when you look into other countries, you see similar problems, but i might take off the current situation is i, as i have a strong confidence in the society of lebanon and is the site is of the middle east by and large. and i've always said there will not be a, a big internal confrontation because this antagonism between iran and saudi arabia

has been ebbing down for quite some time. now there has been a, there's a former reconciliation, but we have seen the ebbing down already for the last for years. let's look at the cutter file. but for all that you need people who can have some sort of perspectives. if to come back and all you have a tremendous diaspora that again left lebanon over the last few months, but already has been leaving for ages. and in order to make people come back and say, yes, i want to work for my country. you also need people with a certain sense of collective. when i said i need the tax number and i want to pay my taxes. i'm at the dozens of lebanese was full. who made fun of me and said i, you want to pay taxes, why pay taxes? and they were proud of not paying taxes. can also if you have to mentality, how do you want to build a state? either you have some sense of connectivity that you say, yes i, i pay for the public transport. i pay for the public health system in my country,

and i don't let it rot or you don't have it. and this is also requires definitely some change of mentality. you know, you make an interesting point though. i reminded me of greece i have from for increase that see watch low pay taxes. but okay, so looking forward, i mean the how can liberate on in fives, get out of it's, it's current situation. the i am, if we're looking to lend money perhaps, but it wants reforms, or we have had, i am asked, right? it's in the past, i don't. okay. that's otherwise this, this was not, it didn't. i mean you just have to look at it for yourself. are immense. yeah. so what, what is the way for them? well, the voice for what is, is that what i just described in my previous answer, but the, this for us to come back? no, and all the some collective signs of mentality that, that you go beyond your house beyond your family. oh, okay. for the state. okay. well, current little thank you so much for joining me today. on archie,

pleasure talking to you. we hope to talk again soon. i feel free time. so the easter celebrations were held throughout many christian communities last sunday with orthodox faithful preparing to mark the holiday. this coming weekend in the vatican. hope frances hell, mass in st. peter's, the silica syrian catholics took part in easter festivities in at thy tune church in damascus. and i'll see course one on cobbler tutner, observed easter celebrations in south africa. and on this day he shall rise, and so to rises. this densely populated township here in the east of johannesburg, called ivory park, where christians wake up with a verve of the day. and some do not even sleep as the usher in the day with

a soul. this is one of the most important days on the christine calendar. and this is how south africa celebrates. ah, what makes us do an overnight in church, on this particular sunday, is that we don't want to sleep in our houses because good friday is a remembrance of jesus when we look at this remembrance, it's touches our hearts through taken off the body of christ. so if you have accepted jesus christ to will touch you because one must take the body of christ with a glanced heart. and that is something that makes us not sleep and seen and prays jesus all night long. i was told by speaking about our lord jesus christ from 1st day become back on friday. you

come back and speak this 7 last words from jesus stomping in, leaves and trees, and we take him to the cross. we preach and we read from the bible and his homely church. oh, i see lie. i we here to ivory park as worshippers where praying for the horrible things we see happening in the township. we pray for our kids are kids smoking drugs. we pray that they leave these drugs, those they kill our parents, we pray, they stop the killing and come back to the house of god. that is what we're preaching . ultimately is the means different things to different people. but here in african it's really centered around relief garibaldi's at the velocity in alexander johnsborough. while i wrote up this news ally up next to the valley is on cross, so we'll be back in just under 30 minutes.

ah ah ah
