2:02 am

2:03 am
dead with a home made gun during a similar speech in july. the perpetrator in that incident said he was, quote, dissatisfied with the minister's policy. to discuss this further, let's cross life to japan, political observer, newport, to worry. joining us from tokyo, welcome, and thank you for being on. what could be the suspects motive? do you think for the attempted political attack? oh, thank you. thank you for having me. actually. oh, it is very much unusual thing in japan. the things we have been observing for last one year. what happened to, since you are way up late, my plan is just a job. it was really world. never seen that japan before. so again, within less than one year today though, very fortunately, everyone everyone was on how and mr. t. c l. so nothing happened to him, that is the best thing happened. but what actually i see japan is
2:04 am
very close country, you know, and japan is not like, you cannot compare japanese culture with any other kinds of different there because it is unique. so if i say that could be the reason i maybe you know, i would be wrong at the previous monitor, which actually who did, who murdered a mr. mr. abbey. so actually we did not know what was the reason, but the reason was very private. so it can be very private reason itself and he, maybe he's having something against a mr. casey or maybe you know, he's related is having something against him. so it can be, it is not really politically involved. maybe it can be private, it can be political, it can be, you know, we just, we can guess right now. and japan is since a society is very close, they don't disclose things like until unless they're proven. so even the last time also it was though they did not disclose anything until unless they prove they
2:05 am
actually investigated everything. so this, i think this time also they're going to do the same. so you know, i have been living in japan from last 20 years. so most of my life i lived in this country, knowing the society, knowing the culture. i can say that it can be any reason it can be any reason japanese actually take that extreme state only when they have no choice. only when it's got it's kind of yeah, she said well, but you can, you can also call them because they feel that i can be arrested. i can, anything can happen to us. so there to believe that the whole, the extreme and then only be again the do the kind of say here also that it can be very personal. even we cannot. right now, even who cannot guess that personal reason can be maybe with his family, mr. to see the family maybe to go maybe anything it can be. so i think
2:06 am
we have to wait now police and a party. what they're saying, what they are disclosing that that was the reason, but the thing which actually happened the japan, the normal seat isn't very much shocked. because in my living from last 20 years, i have lived 7 places of the band. and it said to be, we can keep such a beautiful country, people really cannot think of doing those kind of paying. you know, why i'm saying japan is very different because the culturally they are be, i'm not re express you. they will not express, they will not argue, they will say yes. and they just use that place. you know, they just leave that place, but they will not go for the are going to argument. i'm not really necessary and you, you can not, it is so quiet even. i mean talk, you will not find any noise here. that right now even invoke i also the,
2:07 am
it's really need to really need the every drop in offering. you can hear that kind of in that kind of society, it is, there is no noise, there is no noise, pollution, people really don't disturb each other, that kind of society. so when somebody is taking that step, it is very extreme. japanese and i spoke when i came to know about them. he was then i spoke with my few of my friends and they're very much talked about the last year it happened with mr. harvey in the nation was really talk to that. and after that, the security was definitely increase for the on the other political leaders to but compared to other countries that japan doesn't have that much security because it is considered the one of the safest country in the world. you know, i myself like everyone into your wherever we did the took you metro. we take the last train of took you to we come back home. there is no one on the road. we just
2:08 am
walk through. this is very normally in japan, back down to safe country. nobody. nobody even look, looks at you. nobody touches you. nobody saw have you know, back country where this kind of incidents are happening. people are normal citizens are really socked, that japan is experiencing those kinds of things. so i would say that very unfortunate, but until unless we really get to know that really isn't that, why did he do that? so i think it would be a proper thing to just say that it was the reason that we can guess that it can be personal reason. but politically, actually i jack nice people in general then not very much politically concerned, then they pay their taxes. they work hard, they pay for everything, they're very low, i buy people, they don't waste their time, you know, thinking about politics much differently. do discuss but not like other countries,
2:09 am
like they're just making group and they're just discussing about politics. the under that is the positive and negative. both sides are there. they're really not very however, quality because they mind their own business. they're just to go to work. they come back, they have their own families, you know, even saying that the, sorry to interrupt you. but we're running out of time and i know there's certainly more to come. so thank you very much for your commentary, job japan, political observer, newport, to worry. thank you. thank you for having me. thank you. the west needs to stop encouraging the war and ukraine, brazil's president says, as he concludes his visit to china, but all to phase important. now, another important country as the united states, that is the united states, needs to stop encouraging more and start talking about peace. it is necessary for the european union to start talking about peace refer during the visit brazil's president, also called for moving away from trade and dollars. that's as just ahead of the
2:10 am
trip the to completed their 1st transaction. and you on the chinese president stated that bolstering ties with brazil is a diplomatic priority for his country. at the top level, meeting the side signed several agreements and exchange of views on international issues. brazil's top officials saved their country. it's free to choose its trade partners. welcome to this is thought we must overcome the previous stage of isolation from other states. the country cannot be isolated from others. brazil has the size to be a partner with biggie comic blogs and other countries and bilateral agreements. so it makes no sense to choose to be closer to one country in order to be further from another shin i am i office, the china is brazil's biggest commercial partner in terms of the direct flow for an investment relationship speaks for itself. and today we're innocent. bullet and political point of view,
2:11 am
the state visit speaks for itself as well. we do de dollarization is also, i honest janda. it's one of the highest issues discussed and, and it's very much in the interest of people and both china and brazil, and maybe in the future for more bricks. countries will know that china's largest commercial van of the industrial and commercial bank of china has possessed is 1st cross order and settlement in brazil as though co branch. and it marks one of the most significant step indic bank globalization, and also in the deep dollarization of in the bricks country. and the movie suspected to boost original economic and trade recovery and post pandemic. and perhaps will help companies in both countries to find them a reliable turn to the u. s. dollars as they see safer cooperation for trade investment deals and reduce the risks of the bullet. tell us dollar president. she
2:12 am
spoke highly of develop relations between china and brazil. during the talk saying that china sees the relationship as one of the top priorities in is in the countries diplomatic agenda. and the 2 leaders of agreed on of forging stronger ties between the 2 countries of economically, politically and culturally present. she said he's very much confident about the, a brit china and brazil relationship to that continues to enjoy sound and steady growth, which is bound to play a very important role. a very positive role for peace, stability, and prosperity in the region for both and beyond. meanwhile, the share of the chinese currency and world markets has doubled over the past year . last february that you on accounted for less than 2 percent of global trade. since then,
2:13 am
the chinese currency has reached 4.5 percent with the u on now breathing down the euro's neck. the dollar share is also in decline as more and more traders turn to its chinese rival. my colleague peter scott, was earlier joined by a panel of experts who waited on the global shift away from the u. s. dollar in favor of rising multiplicity. we all seen as a certain level of di dollarization. now, i'm practically speaking trading in these current currencies of developing nations . are they stable enough to, does it affect the social stability when it comes to tre, between you so that was that not an issue? do they? is that we paid to the dollar or how to work. now that the primary issue for specially smaller countries is, do they have the, the, the fiscal, the monetary stability in terms of being able to use their currency on a global basis. the global economy is growing, and countries such as china,
2:14 am
countries such as india, continue to have a larger space in the commercial landscape. but i think you also need to, to, why is all of this happening? and in part, it's because of us sanctions policy. when you a sanction policy is focused on a particular country, then it's, it gets less attention and countries are less worry about it. but with the globalization of u. s. financial sanctions, that's driven a lot of bits. and so when you have prime minister modi president, she president, putin, president lula, you know, they're all looking at ok, how do we insulate ourselves from whoever's in the white house? what benefits are there full, full, full members of doing this? and now we've seen a gradual move away from the dollar when it comes to trade. yeah, this is very significant. peter dollar supremacy has done so much damage to south
2:15 am
america into a press countries, the world over. we see the center of economic gravity in a political gravity in diplomatic gravity shifting to the east, to shanghai, to beijing. to moscow. this comes is great news to all the exploited under developed countries of the world who have for so long been trapped into this historical dependency, not just on the dollar, but on the us market. we see dozens and dozens of countries across south america in the middle east, lining up to join bricks. what are the main benefits of the countries in breaks in trade, in with their own countries? while self control does this give them that the, the green bike doesn't it is quite significant for countries stop trading in their own, their own national that and then definitely that dependency on dollar or for that matter in starting found already euros would come down drastically as starts and i
2:16 am
think that would actually be a platform for multilateral wanted to order the across people globe as such. we have been trading with germany now with the india and current the and there is no longer dependency on dollars such. so i think these are very big difficult moves that can be felt welcome moves and definitely breaks. there's a very powerful automation at the bottom and i base him in china and russia are the part and parcel obliques together with the less well as south africa. and i do understand that in the future bricks is going to expand far as such. so this has started dependency on dollar as well as on utah, and in dialing, pound will be diminishing gradually with every passing date. and i think very soon, we will see a couple of new currencies emerging as the international standards in thousands of dollars in terms of sterling pound, their thoughts are income,
2:17 am
stop euro. and in that i do see the indian ruby emerging as alternative to international currencies. at the global level, a rise in the natural currency is yet another sign of the end of china, so called century of humiliation when it suffered from western interference and its consequences. and now they ging is of course to be reckoned with for more on this and other breaking stories going on at r t dot com that washington has applied a variety of sanctions on venezuela and it's government mainly in the economic sector by blocking oil imports from they don't companies, nicholas maduro himself has been targeted with his assets being frozen for a legit human rights abuses, as well as the venezuelan central bank director for allegedly undermining democratic processes. back in 2017. donald trump began aggressively tightening
2:18 am
sanctions with the aim of ousting maduro in favor of the in term opposition government led by hong why doe political analysts. didier ortiz says that the u. s. is trying to break the will of venezuelans in order to get its hands on the nation's oil supplies. when the soil and economy is largely driven by oil, venezuela has the largest proven reserves of oil in the whole world. so the u. s. understands that if it doesn't control the source of oil, it doesn't control a huge chunk of the energy politics and the energy resources of the world. so the us government and its allies in washington, oregon are very much concerned with breaking will have to finish all the people that's not to say that the seller should have bad relations. but it was, you have good relations with all the countries in the world because peace loving people are able to have it providing relations throughout the world. but at this
2:19 am
point, it would be very foolish for the best willing government and the ministry people to trust any administration in the white house. 1 or in brussels, the u. s. government is not being led by any forward thinking people, us government's ability to make open threats or even leave veiled threats is expiring quickly as the basis of international relations is now most i polarity is a new world that is a foot and the u. s. government will do really well to understand that in a swell dignity is not for sale and it's not going to be for sell anytime soon. it certainly wasn't 2017 and it should be today. i think that president my to answer like any precedent with dignity and integrity would if your country was threatened with economic sanctions and with all sorts of other hostile acts, when you react the same, i think president, my little reaction was that of a tree. ah, french president and man, norma crohn has signed
2:20 am
a controversial pension reform, which will raise the retirement age from 62 to 64 years old. that despite the public's mass of rejection and violent nationwide protests, oh, i on friday, police use tear gas and baton against protesters marching through the capital torching trash bins. in the city of ren demonstrators also started fires engulfing the entrance of a police station, as well as a local monastery. protest continued throughout the night as citizens expressed their frustration over the bill being pushed through parliament without
2:21 am
a vote. the french president argues that the reforms are essential in order to prevent the country's punching system from collapsing, which is why the government says it use special constitutional power to force through the changes without a vote last month. nationwide. demonstrations opposing the reforms have been ongoing since january and according to trade unions, they will continue rallying for me today is the ultimate slab in the phase of decisions that are onto craddick. decisions are not no longer reflected, all the democracy that is supposed to be in france today. we will continue protesting in the streets. nobody was hoping for any good form, the counsels ruling. we all knew that they would decide this. well, the movement will go on, but we won't give them never give up people, they don't know what's coming for them. we will go until the very end. if we have to block the country, we will him the u. s. a 21 year old suspects allegedly behind the leak
2:22 am
of classified intelligence documents has been charged with unauthorized removal, retention, and transmission of national defense information. the case has prompted the government to double down on surveillance, but the mainstream media is now demanding even more censorship from the pentagon to prevent such leaks in the future. what technologies is the pentagon applying right now to both spot leaked documents on line and track potential indicators of leaking type practices? can you say whether dearly has anyone looking at i chat rooms on discord? what is your message to anyone who might be thinking of leaking these kinds of documents in the future? what took so long for d, o. d, in the intelligence community, stood to locate these documents. are there less people who have access to this type of information today? than there were a week ago. meanwhile, it's been revealed that the u. s. mainstream media had identified the suspect even
2:23 am
before the f. b. i could find him. archie still mop it investigates just how deeply some corporate outlets are embed with the spooks in washington. what's particularly interesting is that the tracking down of this accused leaguer was done by 2 journals to journalist outfits. one describes itself as a group of independent journalists. however, its connections to american intelligence are quite well known at this point. and the other is the new york times, which is one of the main voices of the american establishment. and we have 2 entities that described themselves as journalist press, basically bragging, very proud about having worked with the f b i to hunt down a leeker years. what's been said belin kits? eric taller worked with the new york times stone cover, a trial of digital evidence that appears to identify jack dick shira. at 21 year
2:24 am
old air national guardsman as the leader of an online game chat group, where u. s. intelligence documents leaked now belling, cat in particular, likes to present itself is very independent investigative cutting edge. but they work hand in hand with law enforcement to track down the identity of an individual who may classified documents of vailable to the public and put them on the internet . and there's been quite a reaction to that on social media. well done for working with the fast to ensure whistleblowers are arrested great walk in the name of st. celeste investigative journalism. it's astonishingly embarrassing on the part of the new york times special that instead of reporting relevant leaks, they do the work of a fashion secured to state to find the league, or instead disgusting. there was a time when the new york times went to court to argue they had the right to publish li government documents. now they're helping the government track down leakers. if
2:25 am
you see a leak in the new york times, it was planted by the government. we have a situation where over a 100 documents of classified information related to the american government and its relationship with the conflict in ukraine have flooded the media. now the individual who's been charged for this is a 21 year old member of the air national guard massachusetts. he apparently is reported to have wanted to impress his friends on a discord server on the internet. so he made these documents available. questions raised about why such a low level member, he has been arrested now mainstream media as played up the politics and the views of the young man describing him as racist. pro gun christian, anti war, et cetera, almost as if they're betraying him as an insurrection is frank link him to donald trump, his orders, and the january 6th, that mainstream media has painted quite
2:26 am
a picture and characterized this individual as being associated with a larger mil you and us politics, here's what they've said. we do have a domestic extremism problem in america. one of the greatest national security threats facing our country comes from with it within sometime individuals that have the kind of personality defects get through. and unfortunately, it caused the problem and he had some extreme views about some he thought the u. s . government was engaging conspiracy. the washington post, as you know, reviewed video of the suspect, yelling racial and anti semitic slurs. and one thing that is clear is us officials are indicating they will be increasing the surveillance of us citizen and their internet activities when it comes to this kind of thing in order to ensure the classified documents are not future. some western media outlets have now tried to play the russia boogeyman card, citing u. s. officials who say moscow is likely behind the
2:27 am
a legit leak. that's this by russia already saying the release documents are highly dubious and could be a part of a disinformation campaign. the on verified papers have also pointed at claims of division within the russian establishment over ukraine. for marcia analysts, larry johnson says the leakage is likely to be intentional. given that the published documents focus mainly on ukraine and russia. l. 21 year old enlisted man can come across such a document is beyond me, they're, they're really trying to portray him as a trump support. they gave every negative description about him except they didn't find him word or read mag. other than that, he took all the boxes, pro, gun, religious, extremis, christian, or anti submarine races. all you know, loves god. so it's just, you know, it was nonsense. this was targeted control release of intelligence. if he was just
2:28 am
picking up random pieces of intelligence and putting them out, yes, i could, i could be persuaded just doing it to impresses gamer buddies. but what it was, leak is very specific about ukraine and russia, and showing specifically that ukraine is losing the war. and as well as highlighting the deficiencies on the part nato. when you know, nighted states, i don't think that's an accident. the thing is too pretty. that's too good to be true, and that's a rock for the hour. thanks for joining us for the latest breaking news and updates head over to r t dot com. and be sure to follow us on all social media platform. back as a company our ah, the the
