imposing the sanctions on russia has destroyed the american economy. so there's your boomerang self. a barbara has wagner group, dismiss it as a provocation. western claims that his group support student needs paramilitaries in their fighting against the countries army, even encounters that calls washington's desire to arms taiwan to the t denouncing the plants as acts of international bully with constitutional 1st amendment rights does not exist today. the freedom of religious and political views does not exist in american society. washington is going after its own services for supporting unwanted opinion. according to one of 3 russians and an american who've been charged with the election meddling with

coming to you live from the russian capital. this is our t international. i'm rachel blevins here with the top stories of the our welcome to the program. and we begin with the latest from sudan authorities say more than 600 people have been killed in the northeastern african country. and just a week of fighting, a power struggle devolved into a full scale conflict in the capital 7 days ago. between government troops and a paramilitary group known as the rapid support forces and new humanitarian c expire has been proposed after the previous one quickly collapse. these are the latest images from the capital of cartoon where clashes continue r as up, troops have been firing anti aircraft around at air force just overhead. a local journalist massage. abraham has the latest on the conflict so

it's never free. and so you know, when you go to the content of flashing and nobody never listen to the pros and it's according to the bad situation happens inside their houses. and by this free they cannot go out, they can by way. so that's what the reason for people to get out from the city to give them the same people. they don't have food people, they do have blogger problems, prices, people who stay with our water and electricity for 4 days. people are not able to go out from their houses to buy. they need people can. i think there, there are 6 people, the old people in the hospital, a lot of families lost most of their parents or did or due to the problem that it's not hospital. it's difficult to reach the hospital. and there's a lot of people who don't have kidney problems, and this kind of people are very nice to go to sort of need to go to the hospital

soon as the free time every week. and you can imagine this is not helping him right now. came to find the culprit for the rest and sudan. the western media has turned to its usual boogeyman. russia reports have accused the wagner private military company of supporting local paramilitaries against the army. wagner's g as rejected those claimed, calling them a provocation, and saying on the contrary, the group wants to mediate piece if necessary to help resolve the existing conflicts. and for the future prosperity of saddam, i'm ready to act as an intermediary in negotiations between the parties of the conflict. the un and many others want sudanese blood and i want peace for the sudanese people. i also want to ask for the opportunity to send plains with medicines and everything necessary to saddam at my own expense. independent journalist, next thing to tambo will leave this up to offered i think it's up to the people

said that the standard that america has never been debt to be friends with anyone or that make us so that it's all political and a national interest. and tell you russia and the russian federation, good in there for my usaa is known to have assisted the menu button momentum according to me. and in this case what i'm getting seems coming to offer a quote for the people. so that to kind a, what they say and have independent employee sit in the country. so whether it be set off from one is going to be accepted by the people. i think they would have to look beyond that to offer and they look at their long term interest of this menus. people a comes at a time when the americans have been trying to sort discard the incident

with whereas we know that america has been in that particular region and many other pass on the continent. try to kind of d. c, bullish tactics in, in the national geo political affairs and meddling can to many of african countries in affairs. and while the media are trying to tarnish rushes involvement into dan independent journalist on the horn of africa, thomas man points out that one of the current top student needs officials. the transitional sovereignty council chair has a long when a close fund of washington. he's in speaking with african returns, the ongoing underground. you can watch the full episode throughout the week starting on saturday. but here's a quick look from sudan in all seriousness. a pulling news coming up. but unlike

the ukraine, when nato nation media know exactly everything about that situation about the war began last february. when it comes to sit on the i, they look confused. and boy, they just don't know when the shooting step started. they, they hadn't been told which side to back. you know, this region you lived in this region. what is going on? louise air force, pilots or bombing civilian populations in the capital cartoon and elsewhere. this has been going on since sunday, and everybody's quiet about me. there's videos on the whole silly box, and if i am getting billed out and cartoon was welcome, 8 air force is bombing its own capital city, and rural is not in ours in what's going on really is that our is a cia back pension name, general abraham whose eat back by age is and the cia and he was trying to

eliminate is competition, which is general. ha mattie was head of the are by mean you don't saying that i me behind didn't get the ok from washington to start using jets warplanes to bomb airily, bombard capital. well, brown is pretty much, dear man, in sudan. i mean, he's, he's intervened in ethiopia. he provide hundreds of tons of weapons to the c i back attempted coup against ethiopian government to the t grad people's liberation from . he's been trying to normalize relations with israel, which the u. s. is very supportive or he'll on sundays lose shows our egyptian air force base in manner away in sudan be captured by the are. so, i mean this, these are egyptian airplanes are being used to threaten ethiopia because there should, i mean, these are,

egypt is demanding that they control ease of control and not valley water. so i mean, brand is been basically dancing from the cia and the region, ah, the u. s. has accused several of its citizens of conspiring to interfere in the countries elections, spending ration propaganda, and having ties to the kremlin. we support the efforts of a rush here to protect itself from the going, growing a desperate attacks by, by right power that we see happening, coming out of ukraine. all 4 of the americans who were charged or deleted with the political movement that supports empowerment at the back community. 3 ration citizens have also been accused in the case, one of them, alexander ear, not strongly rejects the claims and says all the case proof says how the 1st

amendment, the freedom of speech is no longer alive in today's america. this is why during this they revoke their own constitutional of 1st amendment right. it does not exist to date, the freedom of religious and political views does not exist in american society. apparently without having any actual evidence regarding my criminal case, they announced a reward of 10000000 dollars to any one who has any information about me. my case is a case of revenge. it is a political case. i think this is not the latest development. they'll be dragging my case out until the end of the year, or at least until the elections. there are concerns. the u. s. government is effectively trying to outlaw any positive speech about russia as our cheese. marina closer reports, the scary russians are back at it again, meddling and us elections, and this man as the suppose, a mastermind alexander eon of. he is accused of using a government funded organization called the anti globalization movement of russia

to carry out an influence campaign in coordination with russia. security forces, 2 of whom were also charged for allegedly being part of the project. russia's foreign intelligence service, allegedly weaponized, our 1st amendment royce freedoms. russia denies it soon, citizens to divide americans and interfere in the elections in the united states. the department will not hesitate to expose and prosecute those who so discord and corrupt you. selections in service of hostile foreign interests, regardless of whether the call for his are us citizens or foreign individuals abroad. so now it's not trump or twitter that russia is using to confuse americans . those accusations sort of backfired in their face with the cia and the white house. expose, what's helen's widow? what to do? remember that for now, russia, security services are pushing mosque, those agenda in the united states, apparently through these a local organization. so we have the african people socialist party and this,

and see colonialist movement based in florida as well as the black hammer group. one of the main objective of this whole operation was reportedly to promote a particular candidate running for local office in st. petersburg, florida. in 2019, no details regarding who it was or which election, but if it was the city council elections while they weren't that successful, as their candidate lost by a large percentage. so sounds like much ado about nothing but not according to washington ego, hulu. they don't even need to think much about the subjects and the composition of these actions. they're very good at compiling information always where it needs to be invented or colleagues who are particularly intimidated and they're still being exhibit it 1st signals began to be received from somewhere in 2016. they were called her interrogations. the 1st they got to were the united nations anti war coalition. america has the toughest law when it comes to foreign agents, as we see that actually gives the right to the american special services to act as

they act when they want to eliminate the most dangerous terrorists and criminals. while the russians in this case have nothing to worry about, since they're not physically there, at least it's a different story for the american citizens. they've been charged with conspiracy to defraud. they go s or some are also charged with impersonating agents of a foreign governments. and again for want communicating with russians for share in their opinion or because their opinion was inconvenienced. people attend international conferences all the time. is that illegal now? no money was exchanged? no evidence of f as be cooperation. yet for american citizens affiliated with a black empowerment organizations have been indicted for supposedly help in russian saw discord in u. s. society. how exactly? by voicing their points of view, which happens to match rushes or people are allowed to have their own opinion. this man has been the leader of the american base socialist and african movement for

many years and has been speaking his mind all along. he claims he knew that this was coming and he insist he didn't need russians to tell him about racism, white supremacy and unfair elections in the us military forces identifying themselves as npr. attack my home. oh, they use fresh bang, renee and with vehicles. they threaten my life and threatening my life. you don't have declared that got people so stupid that it takes lessons to tell us that we i press out a my entire life standing is a worker. oh, well, in any case, washington seems to have killed 2 birds with one stone there, and they did it as though it was an imminent right to american national security.

they went in with old guns blazing well in a separate case. also on tuesday, the u. s. department of justice charged a russian woman natalia borlin over of acton illegally as a foreign agents in the u. s. by supposedly conspiring with an f as b h. and to recruit americans from academic and research institutions to travel to russia, to participate in the public diplomacy program called meeting russia. well, that sounds like it could have had a detrimental impact on american politics. here's the irony, even if all this was true, it still wouldn't be anywhere near the amounts of american influence been pushed around here in russia for decades, supporting and funding rushes opposition and barriers russian n g o's, n, the name of democracy, or the u. s. condemning the conviction of russian activists who betrayed his country by law being western governments imposed sanctions against russia. that

case was politically motivated apparently, but all this or no, it's not human and labor rights lawyer dan cov, alec believes the charges are an affront to freedom of speech and they said a dangerous precedent. i think these charges or merit list. i think they're frivolous. i think they're, you know, you know, purely politically motivated. i would say they're a joke except that it's not funny. you know, it's a very serious thing that's happening. and i hope that free speech groups like be a c l you will come to bat for these people, but i have some doubt they used to be this great re speech organization and now they seem more interested in other issues. well, it's a very dangerous precedent that could be said, of course, if this prosecution were successful, it would effectively eliminate the 1st amendment which has been you know,

the u. s. is one of the best free speech who guarantees in the world and a prosecution like this, if successful, would really undermine those protections. and people like me honestly would have a reasonable fear that we could be next. and in fact, i already lost my teaching position at the university of pittsburgh 2 weeks ago, and they didn't really give a reason, but i suspect it is because of my outspoken political beliefs. yes, the us secretary of a and 3 blink. it was instrumental in triggering allegations that 100 biden's leaked files were part of a russian disinformation campaign. this revelation is based on recently published testimony by a former c, a deputy director r g caleb mop. it has the details, michael morale, former deputies c, i a director,

and he was also one of the signatories of this letter from $5019.00 talent officials saying that they believed that the scandal surrounding hunter biden's laptop was originated in moscow. some kind of russian operation here is some of what this letter said. we write to say that the arrival on the u. s. political scene of emails purportedly belonging to vice president biden son hunter, has all the classic year marks of a russian information operation. we want to emphasize that we do not know if the emails are genuine or not, and that we do not have evidence of russian involvement. just that our experience makes us deeply suspicious that the russian government played a significant role in this case. as you can see, the language of the letter itself says they don't really have any evidence. this story regarding the hunter bind laptop is simply a propaganda span, or can con conspiracy from russia. however,

it appears they were comfortable putting their names on a letter saying just that and urging the media not to cover the 100 by laptop scandal. now, from what we understand, this new testimony indicates that they received a phone call from a very prominent person, prompting them to sign this ladder. here's what michael morale testified. prior to secretary blinking call, he did not have any intent to write the statement. i did not, so who's called triggered that intent and you did? yes, absolutely. what was the intent of the statement? one intent was to share a concern about russians with the american people and to it was to help vice president biden. so it appears that an individual who was functioning as a senior adviser to the biden campaign, and has since been appoint secretary of state by jo biden's class was key. and putting forward notion that somehow the scandal surrounding hunter biden's laptop

was a russian conspiracy. now at this point, we have major news outlets in the united states saying that actually the hunter biden laptop was real. it was not a false news item. and furthermore, it appears that efforts to wipe it out of the media and efforts by, you know, to ban the new york post stories about at twitter and facebook banning and suppressing any reporting on the hunter by the laptop scandal and all kinds of the various business deals and criminal activities that appear to have been revealed by the hunter, by a laptop that was done a part of the manner. so they used the allegation that somehow they conspiracy from russia to suppress a story that we now acknowledge was true. and they did so in a partisan manner to help bite when he was running for president of the united day . this is just the latest in a string of revelations revealing that a real scandal involving the man became president. the date was suppressed by us

mainstream media partisan manner in order to probably influence election results is quite, quite a revelation. the hungarian prime minister has expressed surprise by the native chief statement that all members agree on ukraine joining the military alliance. budapest says long given an ultimatum that it will block if it continues to violate the rights of ethnic hunger, ariens in western ukraine are to contribute original mars that gave us her take on the story. nato secretary general. yes. stilton bert cleared. he shocked hungarian prime minister victor or bon with talk of ukraine joining nato on his trip to kiev . had a meeting with nato ally, defense ministers, bon ukrainian, military, 8 at the alliance is ramstein airbase in germany. oldenburg acknowledged that ukrainian leaders. we're set to press nato on joining the alliance at that meeting

. now it's a basic principle of nato membership that you can't integrate the alliance when you're in an active state of armed conflict with another country. if only because nato's collective defense article 5 would mean that the many of the country at war is brought in to nato's bold, all of the nato allies would then have an obligation to defend it overtly in that conflict. which in the case of you created, would mean that instead of ukraine versus russia, it would be all of nato versus russia overtly. so new membership for ukraine would kind of be like buying a ready made kids for world war 3, which is why or bond is wondering what the heck is going on right now in stoughton birds head. just have a listen to how stilton berg position on this issue has evolved on we support ukraine on this pulse, a boy of supporting as reforms, fights, and corruption on molding on staying the security and defense institutions to

become a member of nato. you have to meet the natal standards on the has to be a decision bought 30 alice and it has been cleared for a long time. the membership of ukraine was not something that was imminent or not. so something was relevant in the near future. the sessional membership, of course, has to be taken by all 3rd allies on the we take these positions, bought a consensus only dollars have agreed upon ukraine will become an a member, but still tender did temper history works in a tweet from kiev, saying that quote, ukraine's rightful place is in nato and over time, our support will help make this possible. you know, this sounds like the line that someone feeds a partner to whom they don't want to actually commit, but still want them to stick around in the relationship. you know, dear, over time i'm certain that this will blossom into an absolutely wonderful marriage, then to keep them on board. you shower them with expensive gifts in cash,

just so they hang in there, hoping, praying even that the killing them, which is literally the case or ukrainian, of course, their own cautionary thing that comes to mind. why would nato buy the whole town when they're already getting the mil for free? as former us secretary state hillary clinton said last december quote, the ukrainians have proven that they are a really good investment for the united states. they're not asking us to be there to fight their war. they're fighting it themselves. yeah. for you to. so the craniums are out there fighting russians in narrows interests in the us as interests while nato is able to fulfill it down to russia. fantasies from the comfort of berg nomic recliners, while pumping $55000000000.00 us dollars in the military ages. that figure comes from us defense secretary lloyd austin recently that were, and of course it's that western military industrial complex. that's a huge beneficiary of that 8. so you have to wonder where exactly the incentive is

for nato to move beyond the status quo. idle talk unless promises and all this, particularly when the downside risk being nothing less than world war. i don't know the rest of the story is that the us will train ukrainian soldiers to use it advanced abrams tanks. even though key may never receive them, the pentagon has opted to send older versions of the tanks to speed up. delivery, washington has pledged to provide a total of $31.00 abrams to keep a finish journalist we heard from believe the us is worried about the reputation of its tanks being harmed. what we see here is very interesting game for escalation of the corner. like it's like a speaking to them under the name of the bees, we'd all are more nose and very like uncertain future for the so called back you bench or

d regina as well. these are grainy and national is troops i receiving. i don't see that the, there are any game changers coming if and when a few of them will find out their way to the front line long way to go by the region in the weapon industry. it's called fear factor, and the whole waste has teached as scenes, the gulf war. these do, these are believable power of the abram, thanks for the audio bar to the western tanks. and these holly mood style fear factor is now on the game, because if they send of these machines to the normal, they will be destroyed in big numbers in all numbers. what can be used? they will be stuck on the ropes and in the roads. they are easy targets for, for the russian defenders. and when that happens,

and it will happen when the picture will start to flow to the western audience, the fear factor, all these tanks will do, it used almost certainly do 0. china has came down the statements by us officials, the claim taiwan needs to be better armed as washington war. and the direct conflict with beijing is possible well within the window of maximum danger for chinese companies, parts innovation of taiwan and the yesterday's war game stress, the need to take action to deter, disappear, keith before any crisis begins. the wargames were conducted in collaboration with the u. s. thinking that received funding from american arms makers and taiwanese officials. they were supposedly designed to prepare taiwan for an attack by beijing . china has accused us of international bullying. while analysts have been surprised at washington's moves. these remarks, violet, basic international,

common sense and historical justice. it is fair to say who is using the united nations and who is not who is undermining the international order and who is engaging and hedge moni and bullying? i think i'm totally last sudden confused about what's going on in america. we obviously have a lot of war mongers actually that are interesting having walls with people. but regarding the issue i try one, i think there are a couple of things that needs to be clarified. first of all, the bio administrations attitude and particularly as recent moves and public expressions do attempt to play up. the taishan across the taiwan straits have gone beyond common sense to the extent that they can hardly now able to even wing the unanimous support domestically because its absurdity is already more than so

evident. all right, and secondly, i think by creating a new set of rhetoric on and around the topic of taiwan, the u. s. is trying to denounce china's sovereign right. meanwhile, the philippines has said that it will not allow the us to use bases on its national territory to stockpile weapons for a potential conflict involving taiwan. the u. s. has access to those military facilities under a cooperation deal. fine between manila and washington nearly a decade. ago shall we allow the storage material 1st by one operations we will be guided by the provisions of the at and our own national interest. and i think at this stage our, our, our main foreign policy is really to be friends too old. and therefore, i think anything in consistent with that would not be also consistent with our

position for new military bases are set to be used by us forces deployed to the philippines. they will be in locations around the country, including in a province facing a flash point and the south trying to see nelson. wong again does the philippines could get dragged into a potential conflict. the u. s. is stirring up in the strait of taiwan. the us is definitely pushing on all fronts to try to instigate a war across the taiwan strait. and i think the philippines offered themselves to be involved in helping the americans they might regret already, but it's, it's a decision that has been made by the marcos government. so they say something that i think all the other countries in the region have seen very clearly. so

no, i think the americans are just going really out of their mind. muslims across nigeria have during the worldwide celebrations for all fiddler, which signals the end of ramadan. the timing of the festival of breaking the fast takes place depending on the phase of the moon. the deliberation brings people together to conduct prayers and can be held in mosque or even in field purchase event. say the fees is a day of gratitude and holds great importance in the muslim faith and is considered to be a period of spiritual reflection. it is, it's a new.
