the, the, the largest democracy is providing to be amazing. the resilience chucky does not fulfill the basic principles of a democratic election. such was well, despite the presidential polls being nacken that europe has doubts over the freedom of tortillas. elections, while western media links are to one possible victory with the defeats of democracy . dependent on reportedly turns 8 lines i to the war primes record of its foreign proxy fighters in violation of us law, according to newly release documents. also a head start peers here just covering the water world, the basic not the water world. let's go down to dive into the moody of

a ron's kitch island known as the pearl of the persian gulf. as it prepares to be added to your nest goes heritage. with the good afternoon from the russian and capital, this is our to international with the latest world news updates i'm 0 is about. it's great to have you with us. we start with your cio where the nation is set to decide on the presidency in our ron off. so after neither of the top candidates pass, the crucial 50 percent thresholds to when in the 1st round on sunday, the western reaction to the turkish election was not long coming with washington saying it's continuing to closely monitored the ongoing electoral process and the european

commission president and noted the huge turnout showed that turkish people are committed to exercising democratic rights. yet the council of europe, assessment of turkish democracy was rather confusing. so i would say the tucker's democracy is providing to be amazingly resilient the shows the high turn out in the election. but turkey does not fulfill the basic principles of a democratic election. such was well and western media went even further with its headlines definitively linking president ergo, one with a risk to turkish democracy. that's as the country's opposition promises to take a course towards. wider integration with europe are taking tuber rachel mars and shares her take on how the e u plays its membership card to influence other states policies and why order one is portrayed as an obstacle to turkish democracy. so once again,

the us dangling block membership in front of yet another candidate country turkey kind of like an engagement ring and they're doing it right in the heat of an election. and the opposition candidate is talking like it's only folders which use him over incumbent president, raise up here to one center if he could find a live happily ever after in the arms of brussels. our main goal is membership in the european union. of course, we want to be part of the civilized world. we are ready to rapidly transform turkey 8 into a true democracy that our citizens deserve, as well as to carry out the democratic reforms required by the work session process . hey look, there's nothing wrong with self improvement when it's done for yourself. but the opposition is talking like it's ready to give the country a facelift, a button with some new to use and maybe upsize to some double dees, just so that brussels finds it more attractive. now why would the opposition be

under that impression more because the you keep saying so if the decisions would go towards opening the country to democracy and the rule of flaw, sonton who have been origin for a long time, then we should start talking, who can start talking about to the liberalization of the visa, redeem. yeah, baby, just do it. i asked, and then we can talk about taking this relationship to the next level, like a liberal visa regime, where you can kind of go freely at my place and even leave your toothbrush there without it being kind of weird. sounds a lot like the kind of promises me to keep of under the european union ukraine association agreement that set off the euro. my dog protest in 2013 when venue crane president and your new convicts refused to sign it. quick reminder of what was behind those popping off ukrainian demonstration now demonstrating now in ukraine. they may not be in your opinion and that they are certainly part of the broad political family of european nations. all right, so when kara has,

i see your example in front of its eyes of the kind of blueprint that exists with respect to the you and it's modus operandi. and kind of makes you wonder why hasn't it just locked brussels number yet? it's beyond be frankly, turkey and nato ally applied to the use freed assessor the european economic community in 1987 and was recognized as a candidate in 19199 and still isn't a member. that's a long time to wait around for commitment yet. turkey is also allow nato and you countries to establish military bases inside its territory for western wars in the middle east end of africa. it's also save you from being overwhelmed by migrates, displaced by western military interventions in africa, by holding them in camps on the turkey border. now apparently that's still not enough for brussels. when asked last year about 9 powers pressed exit. joining the block between ursula vander line, european commission president said, quote,

there is no progress. the e u has cited turkeys, human rights record to justify its foot dragging and relationships with its neighbors. meanwhile, it calls you trade with the exact same flaws. problems with its neighbors and issues with human rights, the great defender of european values, at least incumbent president for a while, i realized that waiting around for commitment is a full game to key does not need europe, but europe is in real need the prescription for their increasingly chronic problems is to care to kids full membership. we're not and will not be anyone's placing. we're not and will not be a servant to be treated according to someone's when those who think that they can and slave to care with threats are ignorant of their own history. those who think that they will bring us to our needs with sanctions, will soon realize that they are deeply mistaken. brussels uses the same pickup lines on all the countries that supporting moldova, georgia, serbia, and they're all still waiting around to be invited to make it official,

be checked on the hook with promises even though the gold posts are constantly being moved further out. early one seems to understand the process of selling the fantasies that if the country gives up its independence, then brussels will take care of it. some day. maybe pay a country can dream, right? it can do to build hearts with their names in their notebook, right. and in the best case scenario, you wants to dictate how the country behaves and which of its friends it can still hang out with it. certainly not that russia one that's for sure. it's also toxic that it's no wonder the early one figures that turkey would be better off stage, single, and independent. we will keep you updated on all the developments in the turkish presidential election. stay tuned here on our t international the

now to the war in ukraine, russia's ambassador to the us and says that no one has been held accountable for to have so tax on civilians and don bass. this is a just the responsibility for these crimes sliced, not only with the key for gene, but also with those who supply them with weapons. all these weapons supplied by members of the un security council. now sitting up a site, me seemingly so concerned about the humanitarian consequences of the conflict in ukraine. i can civilians, women and children on a daily basis. the entire middle to potential of nita is 18th of this. so you believe the going away with given millions of civilians, enough gattis, then iraq, libya, and other places. we assure that one day they will be held accountable for what they have done, and no threats of sanctions against judges as what the case with the us war crimes investigation. and that's again,

it's then intimidation of witnesses and whistle blowers and suppression of fact will help them support those pictures of the flow of western arm supplies to ukraine comes amid stark revelations in newly released documents by the new york times, showing that the us ignored the war crimes record of its form proxy troops around the world, which is in fact a violation of american laws. the files reveal that us special operations program involves the training and arming of foreign fighters for use in killer capture missions that american forces don't want to carry out themselves. the provision of supports is not contingent upon successful human rights, but any requirements as defined to the leaky law. l. a he law prohibits the provision of u. s. military aid to human rights violators abroad. the pentagon's declassified directive appears to be a loophole that allows a direct violation of that law. our chief corresponded pay live mop and takes

a deeper look at the pentagon's relationship with its unsavory allies. if you're providing someone with military training and weapons, don't you have a responsibility to make sure the person is not a criminal to use them to go and commit new crimes? you would think so. but apparently the pentagon does not agree. indeed, why worry about such details as long as it serves american interest in far away lands? seems that for the pentagon, the ends justify the means even if it means violating u. s. law that for its military aid to human rights violators abroad, the us track record for such on accountability and impunity goes back decades is just a few examples. the infamous and dirty brigades of militias, the united states, trained in order to fight i still, in a rock, have been accused of torturing detainees and other atrocities. united nations found

us backed forces in the democratic republic of the congo were involved in mass rates and torture of civilians. back in 1981 up to a 1000. civilians were slaughtered by us backed forces in el salvador. the famous elm is ot and massacre. human rights watch has revealed the results of the us occupation of afghanistan and shone crimes that were committed by forces trained and backed by the united states. there. the strike forces have been lawfully killed civilians, your nitrates forcibly disappeared detainees undetected healthcare facilities for allegedly treated in storage and fighters. civilian casualties from these rates and air operations have dramatically increased in the last 2 years. the us armed and fran ukrainian military is just the latest example. they have been caught summarily executing prisoners of war videos, sho, outright war crimes. russia has many times highlighted these documented atrocities

of the united nations. however, the usa and his allies have turned a blind eye visits and me the idea of us doing this for the recent reports by amnesty international and organization that can hardly be classified as pro russian states. we have been talking about at every meeting on the green since the very beginning of a special military operation. the armed forces of ukraine and ukrainian nationalist battalions are hiding behind a civilian population as a human and also use residential houses and apartments in them as fighting boy place heavy equipment in a tillery near the hospitals. schools and keeping the audits keeps the last card launch for any crimes. instead of holding the speed, the speed you demonstrate button double standards and miracles office thoughtfulness, so as not to cast a shadow of responsibility on the skill for the shelling is obvious. this shows

your responsibility for the brain conflict. started the united states at at least question it's relationship with infamous groups. like be as off to tell you known for its neo nazi ideology, what is the relationship of the us government to these people? is it training them? might it arm them? is this one of those cases where we aid and abet the kind of monsters who eventually become our enemies? but they have admitted there is no real way to stop or even control these evil practices. here's another example. the tornado battalion was pretty well known for its atrocities. some of its members even got in prison when the crimes they committed became well publicized. but after russia's military operations started, these dangerous radicals were released in order to join you cranes, armed forces belong the record of washington supporting forces around the world. the do horrendous things, despite existing us laws that mandate otherwise explains why the pentagon doesn't

feel obligated to do any use that thing. when you are training people like this, it probably feels better not to know what they did yesterday and what you might be helping them to do tomorrow. caleb bump and archie, new york. the construction of a massive new us embassy, complex and loving in has left locals. perplexed. the lavish complex is being built here downtown b roots with a size of over $21.00 football pitches resembling a city in itself. the area covers is over $2.00 times that of the white house. meanwhile, 80 percent of lebanon's population is living under the poverty line with many unable to afford basic commodities with the country smaller than the us state of connecticut and its economy in the midst of a meltdown summer asking whose interest a $1000000000.00 development will serve. this wheeler small console like 11,

and doesn't need such a big embassy con pounds. what's the point of them expands in the base, especially in the current situation with many problems in lebanon and worldwide. as i live in east, i truly wonder why instead of them spending money on building such a barricaded thoughts for us, why knows, help lab on over here, empty promises the liberties and all badly to survive the 2nd on the crisis on the own. i don't think there's anything like the house down to your house. so ever i think that the brother, terry basis and a strong presence in the region, i think the american must have an agenda for doing massive expansion. i'm going to employ local jobs because of the financial

situation areas. so people are really struggling. let's go live now to jamal what team, professor of history and international relations at the lebanese university and be route. so, um, film all over 174000 square meters of space for the new embassy. that's almost 3 times the size of the white house. why do you think? what do you think is a reason behind the us needing a compound that large at this moment as well? uh, i believe that uh, this is more of a card on the u. s. card on the inside level. and rather than just a compound or a number, see um it has, uh, so for the purposes 1st uh, it's part of the network of military and intelligence bases that u. s. is

a establishing throughout the east on it. the it is, it matches and its size, the size of the u. s. embassy, and by the, as part of the u. s. plan to control the region, the middle east, and mainly the need is in order to keep russia it on, on china. they in the attempt to access that you submitted that any and this is the 1st, there isn't a 2nd. the reason for this is that the, the, this compound that's good accommodates more than 50000 us through at the same time. this is something that is not mentioned in the media. could serve also as the military base. um uh, as i said, as part of the network of really 3 bases spread by the us throughout the middle east. we are talking about 3 to 4 minutes of these stations and 11 on the biggest

of which would be the compound, the, the us embassy compound. but there are other uh, military. uh, lets say stations that sort of as uh, facilities for the u. s. army like the out of pocket of, uh, from up in, uh, northern lebanon. the like, uh, but just beat you in about it. uh, not far from the embassy, unlike the bite you might be enough, which is, uh, uh, very close to the embassy. in addition, the u. s. is uh, i'll put, i think, drones from the, for the before valley as far of its efforts to monitor the movement of his beloved and uh, of the groups that are considered as most sides do. united states on the these uh, military stations and 11 on obviously out of being as, let's say, a logistical stations. oh, for the link between police,

the u. s. a base and cyprus on all the u. s. bases in eastern syria, utah and so on. the middle east, so this is the real issue and that is a 3rd objective for this uh, military base, which is to keep living on base, to control the country. uh, unless of course, uh through managing a network. oh, well, that's a good context and espionage concerts. in order to keep the company at the base and the within sort of thing the boundary is that's acceptable to the u. s. so i believe that's the side of the objectives of having such a big compound and such a finding. the country like lebanon, especially that this compound, is not far from main name, but action military base in syria. so it also serves a, as a means to contain

a monitor emotion activities in northern syria. quite interesting, jamal. what came professor of history, an international relations at lebanese university, and they wrote thank you. aaron's kitch island, known as the pearl of the persian gulf, is preparing to get its ancient town added to the unesco list. the island is well known as a thriving resort, attracting thousands of visitors from across the globe every year, despite the western sanctions and post on iran. ortiz use of july li has more the persian gulf. that's how kish island is south of iran is usually referred to. this metonymy is manifested in the islands funding attractions, including gifts. smith's rising co beach, us and it's f, one guard recreational centers. now kish result organization has given r t an exclusive access to its eye catching features situated off the southern coast of iran. in the persian gulf. teach is best known for its speech site

or just covering the off the water. we're on the basic dr. water world. let's go down our to cameraman. i mean here and i took it leaf in the dark and drove into the depths of persian gulf waters, whether gopro camera to catch a glimpse of the world of sea creatures. one quick advice to a gentleman, junkies like me, never miss out on keesha's wind tunnel. it gives you the feeling the free of time sky diving. i tried it myself and i was virtually flying. george was come all the way from all the area. had the same feeling, this is actually the indoor flying, sky diving. so it seems like sky diving in a closed environment. so it's control environment. you can actually learn to fly safely. the most safely way. let's say it's and you can achieve your dream of

flying or learn to fly, learn to be a sky dive or as well in the wrong season. this is a scorching caught. what to occasional bar the temperature is always below 0, providing a chance for visitors to pull down at at the same time, enjoy its range of snow activity. who should come here can snowboard go snow tubing, walk on the suspension, bridge, and go and swings in use other facilities. there's also an ice wall for professional ice climbing an average of one year. and they're wanting a tourist versus the island each year. or despite this abundant potential, the number of 4 visitors is not remarkable. case results put this figure up less than $50000.00 annually. there was storm sanctions and they were on our side by experts as another major challenge, which i'm scared for and visitors away from cage and how well she has the political propaganda and the legal sanctions. targets in our country have unfortunately homes all tourism sex to among all the sectors. this issue has created this trust by ford

taurus regarding the safety of tourism. you know, account street. this is while all countries i'm on the safest places in terms of tourism authorities at case freeze on say they have put in place a visa waiver for for a tourist was do we travel permits issued upon arrival. what's the boy and turkey being serious, original for us to cry? bowles case island since to win the game. as experts say, it's one of the nature and coral coasts, on arrival. officials are now forced to invest more and its infrastructure. the goal of turning the islands from local to original tourist magnets usability are to funky shiela and your supreme court is said to hear a filmmaker's appeal after the state of westbound gall band screenings of a movie that is sparking religious tensions across the country. are chase room during sharma, takes us through the controversy. the movie is done on the fire in india,

it's called the general law story, the fullness spots to control the c since it's jesus was 1st released. when exactly you're doing nicely, i subduing, get you done, making a cube joined. the guy said john gage i saw christian lucky the it beaudry, the conversion of known wisdom goes into islam and they'd sassik king to join in radical islam is through the film description went on to clean. the 52000 women went missing from india. sufflin, state, or federal law, implying that there's a relation, but also backlash or false claims and a number of petition spies before the called, the food makers reduce the number of missing. we mean to just 3. i see your last to read the movie, which was really starving, thinking is that the movie,

it's an extra part ice. the society, you know, you for the new, the film is made to be used as a tool to manipulate people's minds. there was no such communal incidents in corolla, so everything that was shown is just the drama. this is an attempt to create a divide among people to turn them communal and defend the teachings of islam and then nothing else. and then a catalyst started the tip there, caught the eye which the corolla story. i think it's a real story. these days we find such stories in carolling the news, but there is no attention drone to them. this is a major reality story. girl should watch this movie for sure. i recommend watching it to everyone. they should also take their families to see the movie director, producer. i'm the leading actors of all come out into sounds of the phone saying the get her last story is not in the numbers bought in the blocked and out of the display, more than the food is fix. know the message for the audience is that

uh that is uh, a very sinister design on this and it stopped blinding, made out by some that is groups to trap and menu play. so done just in the when christian religion can work them and big them maybe to see the all use them any, any of. busy that i, that is activity and it is done in the tech stuff is all. and so it is very important that they are exposed and the goes, i've saved. so the message off off for me is that save the daughters. my feeling has nothing to do with islam. it has nothing to do with a mean, even jim. i only deal with the extremism that it is a part of the society. what do we have? every country is operating today and it isn't meant. so i something that great on biking of eden india or internationally. so i think this is

a story that we need to make us continue to stay on the ground, adding that it's important to portray the story of the missing. we mean on the big screen shots synopsis of the film, is this mostly men the are seen? do we mean into marriage concepts? dumbed of love to hobb? i'm the one that's often bushed by engine light windows. we use it for political games. the holding bought the john pop off, he named dea has openly supported the film saying it's important to expose the ugly truth of terrorism. we have nothing to do with any was religion. this movie has nothing to do with anyone's reading any religion. that's what we have not seen or anything i guess is law and why the pgp is organize the screening of the film and also me to that screen. some states, although no on bgp states, such as west spring gold have banned the food official save. the band has been put in order to avoid violence against muslims where his groups,

including students and opposition, have protested and have to use the food of demonizing. the intel i o is law, make community when it was we we did not really justify the page, but instead, you know, interesting. it's providing me a whole lot of other lives and the business. uh, can you please email me sorry. minus the thing is the uses being promoted and you know, people that love the 1st of all i'm seeing that it is solely of cadillac is a dangerous thing. so uh, so anybody not only a position for that issues, anybody should call out that. uh, this is not fact, this is the only life and that kind of propaganda. i believe by the state of data and the document got to be of the food is not there law,

but the set up the film has been fully rising to say the least and has less many thinking kind of work of thoughts constitute need speech. but what is a speech to begin with? richard sharma. ok, you, denny. that's a rap on the hour. but coming up, even though the last decade has seen economic crashes wars, and that's over 10 demik, it seems that you're 2022 has proven to be equally if not more size makes the discussion next on worlds apart. thanks for tuning in. we'll see about the top of the hour the .
