neal uniform, which push the world into the chasm of the 2nd world war with the united states and its allies, and an iranian court orders you asked to pay hundreds of millions of dollars and compensation for supporting terrorism. with coming to you live from the russian capital. this is our t international. i'm rachel beloved here with the top stories of the our welcome to the program. and we begin with the latest from the ukraine conflict has at least 7 people have been killed, including one child after a rocket fired bay cranium forces hit a bus. and the city of done that, that's according to the head of the non us republic. another 10 people were wounded in the incident. a number of carts were also damaged and windows of nearby

buildings blown out apart. several apartment blocks in the hospital have also been said to have been hit. how the authorities claim the only functioning m r i machine in the region was left damaged. i'm standing right next to a passenger bus where according to authorities, at least 7 passengers of this bus have been killed is the results of a multiple launch rockets system. fire by ukrainian nationalist, we're not going to go any closer to this bus because i, when there earlier had i counted at least 7 charred bodies of us civilians. now this is the center of the city of the net sca very business street on a friday afternoon. and right next to us is the local, a hospital, a local, a trauma sensor, where those people who were injured arrive by ambulances, and they're being treated like all, and all ukrainian nationalists says fired against the city of den,

ask against civilian areas several times of this friday and as a result right now we can confirm that 7 people have been killed and scores have been wounded once again. we are right in the center of the city where there are absolutely no a military positions. and usually the center of the city doesn't come under fire, unlike the outskirts of the city of the nest that are constantly under bombardment by ukrainian a military. as you can see right now. um, investigators are working on this seen uh the, the, the bus driver of the cervical a he survived, but most of his passengers, a 7 people have been killed as the result of this, a ukrainian attack also besides the local trauma center besides this bus, another rocket landed on

a local stadium right in middle of the field. and generally there are several areas here in the center of the nest that came on their shelling by ukrainian military. the russian foreign minister has had out comments by the us ambassador to moscow and an interview she gave to local media. usm bass, berlin, tracy's interpretation of events from ukraine in 20132014 is striking in its selectivity and our right falsehood. perhaps the ambassador was simply unaware, and her assistance did not inform her, but there are clearly missing pieces in this puzzle. the truth and the correct sequence of events among the clamps made by the west diplomat was that the ukrainian government at 1st supported the association agreement back in 2013 before later abandoning it. lin, tracy also accused russia of annex and crimea. this might locals there almost

unanimously supporting the peninsulas entry into russia. the ambassador also claim the u. s. and doesn't have any disagreements with the people of russia, of which the russian foreign ministry, stressed she had obviously forgotten. the u. s. weapons are currently being used against russian service men and don bass civilians. for more on this, let's cross live now to international affairs and security analysts, mark sl boda markets. great. have you on the program today. so funny to say from the u. s. ambassador to russia. do you think that she had any valid points in her commentary? yeah, i mean, this statement given by the new us in boston lyn, tracy. it's her 1st extensive interview. she gave it to commerce on and it's boiler plate u. s. narrative between the tensions between the u. s. and russia

and the situations that have been occurring in ukraine since the overthrow, the openly us backed overthrow of the last legitimate, democratically elected government. there in 2014 leading up of course to russia's intervention in the ukrainian civil conflict that have been raging for 8 years at that time. on what the fair points that i think in baset or tracy had were 1st that i read it looks like we're having a little trouble with the connection there. we're going to try to work to get marx . we'll vote up back up. so we can ask him the rest of those. okay, looks like we may have him hutch. i jen and mark say we have you here on the line

higher and it looks like we got that connection. i apologize. we continue with what you were saying. yeah. so um, this is boiler plate us narrative of what has happened in new grand since the openly us packed overthrow of the last legitimate, democratically elected government. there in 2014, the 8 years of civil conflict raging in the country with the regime supported by other u. s. and nato and russia supporting the people of east ukraine, who never accepted the overthrow of the government that they had democratically elected. the ambassador does house, i think, some fair points of the government of victory article which did indeed originally support the e u association agreement. he campaign for it, and he tried to actually promoted to the ukrainian people until he finally got it

in the entirety and saw that it was a extremely lengthy neo liberal shock therapy. dick taught with no funds from europe to help ameliorate the, the costs of, of which would be the mass privatization of the country. and the loss of, of tens of thousands of jaw, possibly hundreds of thousands of jobs from the state sector. would they have been economic and political suicide, which is why to this day, the majority of you assertion view, user issue agreement has not been fulfilled despite a regime supporting it seizing power. i would say that the, the other important things that she mentioned that, that she got wrong. i was her characterization of the cool that over through the government. she said the government got scared of the people. the president got scared of the people and sled the country. this is

a very odd characterization, of course because there were poles taken in the country at time by the then pro my dawn, us owned key of post showing that consecutive polls showing that a majority of ukrainians were opposed to the my done. they were opposed to the protests, they were opposed to that whole political process. it was a slim majority, but it was a majority. and then so her demonstration that this was some mass uprising by the ukranian people. it was by a percentage of the ukrainian people which you have to ask, which ukrainian people, and then of course, the regime of beginning a military carry campaign to subjugate the people of the rest of the country, namely east to the seizure of power in gift. when the journalists confronted her with why the us supported a president who had fled in yemen and didn't they see a contradiction in terms of that during the course of the saudi intervention in the

many civil conflict. she brushed the crushed and aside, saying rather not the same thing. so obviously principle is not something at stake here. it simply, it was a pro u. s. pro nato anti russian porch that had ceased power. of course, that's why the us supported it and the principal role that then us secretary of state official victoria, newland, of infamy and us ambassador at the i to ukraine at the time jeffrey piano played in husbanding or midwife in the overthrow of the government. and the new government that came to power with vicki newlands famous, i'm a slur tossed at the e e. u. in regards to them. not having any relevant opinion or that the new government that the u. s. was shaping when she said, well, s the victory angela,

and certainly i guess, hasn't shown any regret for her involvement and all of that at least. but when it comes to this us ambassador, what do you think is the purpose of this interview to rush and media specifically? i mean, this is her introduction to the country. so she is laying out the boiler plate us position in the narrative. she did make a teper attempt to speak over the head of the russian government to the russian. people saying all we don't have any problem with you. it's just your government completely neglecting the fact. first that the u. s. is waging an existential economic war of sanctions. and weapon ization of their control, the global financial system, which collectively punishes the entirety of the russian population. and many of the u. s. is european allies, both leaders, politicians, coal,

for russians to be punished and that russian culture must be cancelled. and then russia must be defeated and split into pieces. so i'm, quite obviously, the russian people would probably disagree with that. even out of pocket book issue . and then the fact that the u. s. is effectively de facto killing russians, and the people of don boss and crimea by supporting the regime in its tax, not just with arms, but with training with intelligence with satellite targeting, which evidently they improve every high tech system they have. and that's according to the u. s, western mainstream media. her, her claims that her problems aren't with the russian. people do not match the facts of the proxy war that the u. s. government is waging on russia and the russian people. certainly going to keep in mind that when reading through that interview, international affairs and security analysts marks the buddha. thank you so much for

your time and insight. thanks for having me. ah rushes defense minister claims the us military has been seeking to bolster is present in central asia under the guise of fighting terrorism. he made the comments during a meeting of the shanghai cooperation organization in india or southern america, the united states and its allies, under the pretext of helping in the fight against terrorism, or trying to restore their military presence in central asia. we regard request to the countries of the region to deploy military infrastructure as a direct threat to the stability in the shanghai cooperation organization space. for our part, we are increasing the combat readiness of russian military bases in kurdistan. an educator stand, it's been indeed a truly a busy morning for many of us in new delhi, with the indian as your presidency ushering in some new approaches to asian

or eurasia and security phone for this conference was said by the bilateral meeting between the defense ministers of india and china, which even of itself was a pretty remarkable event because it's in the 1st meeting of such kind after border clashes in 2020 and the ministers trust the frankness of their discussions and really shows the spirit of this particular conference and the new spirit emerging here in eurasia american dominance of western had germany, was particularly a theme of russian defense minister survey showing who accused the united states of trying to saw des worth of trying to so violence for the sake of protecting its own privilege position. recruit, guardian, i live cardinal dynamic, an irreversible changes are taking place in the process of the formation of

a new multi polar world. the collective west actively opposes this in an effort to maintain global dominance. the united states and its allies have seriously eroded the global security architecture on their initiative. the process of breaking and dismantling key agreements on arms control and confidence building was launched. the actual prize itself on being the world largest regional organization covering out roughly 60 percent of the ration landmass. russia, india, and china, the central and south asia as a hugely potential region that could provide many synergies and economic development. but it is also quite sensitive to various security threats coming from non state actors like terrorist organizations, but also state actors and the west. in particular, russia in china, mainly concerned that the united states off trades rather disorderly withdrawal form of janice that may now seek to create instability in central agency as

a means all undermining its adversaries in beijing and moscow. this is something that russian defense minister, in particular, paid attention to because russia believes that what the united states is trying to do, and central asia is pretty much exactly the same. what it already did in your crane militarized country, trying to make it increasingly antagonistic towards russia. russians, defense minister also made a point. the regional powers have a lot to gain from the corporation in military to your industry, particularly singled out a couple of trajectories that can take, for example, the exchange of military information joined exercises, both as a way of increasing mutual trust and as a way of increasing combat readiness, he also said that russia could share it's an expertise on how to produce all parade,

to defend against the use of droll, this is a particular theme emerging out of the ukrainian conflict the or a priority. the versus the funds minister mentioned is conflict resolution. now that's one in particular is crossing for russia, reaches engaged, involved in confrontation in your brain. and it's also something the both india and china looking at with great interest. as you perhaps know, china has been pretty successful in bringing together arch rivals like saudi arabia in iran, india, as a former member of known align movement and representative of the global south would also over some new perspectives on how to conduct international relations and how to conduct diplomacy in a way that actually philosophers rather than on the minds of 2024 democratic presidential nominee hope for robert kennedy has fallen foul of the

sensors over comments he made about cobra vaccines in interview with a b. c news. i should know that during our conversation, kennedy made false claims about the coven. 19 vaccines data shows that the co in 1000 vaccines, prevented millions of hospitalizations and deaths from the disease. he also made misleading claims about the relationship between vaccination and autism. research shows that vaccines and the ingredients use for the vaccines do not cause autism, including multiple studies involving more than a 1000000 children and major medical associations like the american academy of pediatrics and the advocacy group. autism speaks, we've used our editorial judgment and not including extended portions of that exchange in our interview. for more on this list, cross live now to r t is caleb martin. caleb, it's good to see you. so some of robert kennedy, his words found themselves on the edit room floor, so to speak. take us through the details. well, whether or not one agrees with what our s k had to say,

or whether or not he's correct. these were his words as a candidate for president of the united states. but yet we have media outlets determining that they are simply not fit for public consumption. and he's by no means a fringe candidate. i mean, this is, this is a relative, a very close relative of a former us president. this is quite an interesting situation. we understand that the twitter outlet on social media is also involved in these kinds of activities. for particular, we had a situation where the world health organization had actually called at one point advising that children to not be vaccinate. and then the recently removed from the airwaves, radio and tv housed in the united states, tucker carlson. he reported on this and then we had twitter moving in to shut down this claim and to silence the fact that was indeed reported that the world health organization was calling for children at that point to not be vaccinated. as

we see, the exchange is revealed about twitter. they argued that this fact should be shut down because of political risks. here's what they said. well reading and then to see of twitter files. one request to since alleged covered misinformation stood out. tucker carlson. tuck ashley, cited the world health organizations own website. we stated that the w h. i was not recommending children, get the covey facts of to twitch. it began reviewing tuckers all paid full alleged cove, 19 misinformation, and employee e mails that they would take action by labeling any tweets linking the article. now the very twitter employee who over saw this action against tucker carlson's op ed, this very twitter employee had previously worked for chuck schumer, a member of the u. s. congress to add a strong disagreement with tucker carlson. so there's

a political edge to this. now this raises even more questions because robert kennedy junior, who is running for president, says that he intends to prosecute those who prevent it accurate medical information from getting to the us public. and that if he were to become president, he would make sure that accurate medical information was available and he would have posed censorship, done for political purposes. and this comes at the same time that 500 back seen injured individuals and australia have fired, filed a lawsuit, arguing that they were not provided with accurate information. and that they would like to see big pharma and those when gauged in censorship on its behalf. accountable for the fact that they were injured. so it appears that the forces in the united states and elsewhere that have been censoring social media and determining what the public has the right to hear and what the public does not have the right to your art. so motivated by truth as they are motivated by pleasing

certain constituents most specifically those in big pharma. yes, certainly a dangerous precedent sat by this one all around our team, caleb month and thank you for that update. or ron has ordered top us officials and entities to pay more than $300000000.00 in compensation to victims of a series of attack several years ago by the terrorist group known as dash or ice. all the court ruling said the u. s. had provided support for the group and was thus liable for the bloodshed. the reasons for attributing these crimes to the yes have also been stated by the investigating branch among others as follows. statements by high ranking officials, including the former us president about the central role of the government and officials of that country in organizing and direct interest groups including isis reliable news and information published in the american media books and speeches by

american officials about the role of the cia in create interest groups including isis. the court ruling specifically targeted former us president george w bush and brock obama, as well as the ca and defense contractor lockheed martin. the terrorist attacks occurred in june 2017 in central to ron and the national parliament building. and the moslem liam of the country's former supreme leader, ayatollah khomeini. 17 people including m. p. 's were killed about 50 other people were wounded, dash immediately claim responsibility for the attacks. political analyst and tear on university professor siad mohammed mirandi, discuss the significance of the court ruling with my colleague earlier. there is a long history here because the united states has taken iran to court inside the united states on many occasions. they've even taken the iran to court over $911.00

. if anyone can believe that iran has been regularly punished by a u. s. the u. s. government and us courts and the iranian, since they have had assets are frozen in the united states and in europe it's, that's always been a problem. iran doesn't hold us assets. so in the immediate future, there really isn't much that can be done. but the world is changing rapidly in the americans are withdrawing from the region and who knows what sort of opportunities will be around in the coming months in years. but i think at least for the moment it is a political response to the united states. it's sort of the global south speaking back to power. right. and the iranians are saying that remind or reminding the world that the united states created isis from famously admitted during his

presidential campaign. and he knew that because michael flynn was his military and intelligence advisor and we've had other officials admitted and in the media and books come out. so this is basically a reminder that the iranians have been suffering at the hands of the united states . and this is just one chapter, let's move on to a little bit about iran, on it's relations with russia, china in the south, after the bricks. how do you see in the iran moving in, in this direction? time is not on the side of the americans because as the world changes, iran relationships with countries like china and russia in india are evolving. and now that iran is a member of the shanghai cooperation organization that has also benefited iran's relationship with these countries and russia ever since the war in ukraine in the war in europe. the russians have been very keen on establishing the north south

transport core door with iran. so you runs you economic relations. political relations, of course, are significant that have said big significantly improved as well. but he wanted economic relations with these asian powers. and with the global south are evolving and that is making american sanctions thus effective. and i think the united states and europeans have to keep in mind that in the world they are a small minority. latin american countries are converging whether the americans like it or not. asian countries are converging that we see the same sort of trend in africa. and then we have these broader groupings like rick cit, link all of these different continents to one another. u. s. troops will stay in somalia, that's after a resolution to pull them out of the war torn african country was defeated. a similar move to withdraw. troops from syria was previously defeated as well. and

the 1st in that series was syria. and i came to this floor only got about a 103 votes. i made the argument that our troops were essentially sitting ducks, guarding oil extraction operations, where their presence was known, where their location was easily identifiable. and i called for a withdraw that withdrawal was defeated. and then precisely what i predicted more us casualties from iranian drones. that's what happened exactly what i said would occur. there are currently $900.00 us troops in somalia give or take in this resolution would bring them home. u. s. troops had been as been station in somalia since 1992 and yet have failed to bring stability to the region. somalia has been in constant crisis for more than 4 decades, with the situation worsening each year. according to you and reports,

millions of people who suffer from food and security, and the lack of access to clean drinking water. various militant groups, including the notorious, all sure, bob are active in the region, sewing instability and fueling crises in the country. to go further in depth on this. let's cross live now to retired us air force, lieutenant colonel. karen? quite koski. karen, it's great to have you on the program today. so the bill to withdraw the troops was firmly defeated. did that come in any way as a surprise? i'm not really because it, we saw this play out with the serial vote previously. but what's interesting is it's a very consistent number of republicans and democrats who are on the right side of this issue about 50 republicans in 50 democrats, united to vote yes to bring our troops home and to not foment more problems overseas. so that consistency is there, which is a good thing, but of course,

overwhelmingly 3 quarters of the republican and democratic members of congress. you know, not interested button paid for. right. and surely if you were to go to any of those members of congress and talk about talking to their constituents, they may not even know that us troops were station in somalia to begin with. so why do you think that the vote both on some molly and previously on syria fail visit really just in case of being bought and paid for. and those members of congress knowing that they have special interests that they are more loyal to than the american people. i think curtain prestige that they.
