[000:00:00;00] the, the, the russian foreign minister, so he's most co can have no dealings with the west as long as it supports ukraine's policies and targeting russian civilians. also a head on the program, investigative journalist seymour hersh, revealed european states. secret police call on the president loving their zalinski to sit down for a piece of thoughts with bruship as countries neighboring new cream cream. the effects of a long uncomfortable circus opposition candidates. 10 miles finished. auto lewis college president are to want to quote false leaders and promises not to let him remain in power. we look at numerous obligations on culture claims of our

recollection on whether they mean muff protests or on the rise on most going to around sign a historic trade agreement, which includes the construction of a new real way see route, connecting russia to india by a road the from must go to the world, this is your r t international grid of your company. let's get in to our top story. this wednesday rushes foreign minister house declared the west made its choice when it decided to support the ukrainian leadership in attempting to destroy all things russia to is up at the west has made his choice and says that the russian must suffer. strategic defeat was give a crime yet betrayed the russian people in other parts of the former ukraine as well. but they are declared non human and their physical destruction is stated as the goal of the concrete for g. and the news in lab row was able to cover a wide array of topics in this 35 minute interview. of course,

it focused mainly on the ukraine conflicts, but more specifically on routes of phobia which began to intensify, especially after the 2014 euro. my don qu data and key of according to the russian foreign minister, because that's when a regime came to power that was backed by armed neo nazis and began to wage a war against the russian people in dunbar slab. ralph, called this a regime that wants to kill russia and it's being supported by the west. yes, it is up. therefore, if the west says that this regime which kills russians, gives russian culture the russian world in any of its manifestations. and physically destroys the russian people who are its citizens. if it's and these that the west sees, the values that as alaska region is defending what will no longer rely on the west as a partner with whom we can find even minimal common ground with russian foreign minister . also to is the west of staying silent when it comes to the key ever. seems. crimes well also actually somehow praising it for upholding some sort of democratic principles despite the fact that it's banned,

it's political opposition. and like i said earlier, they're using arms neo nazis to accomplish their strategic military objectives. there is something else i want to touch upon. don circular for all comments came after. at ukraine's military intelligence chief appeared to confirm the key of what's behind the association of a number of high profile russian civilians. lately what was said, that's right. well, typically keeps policy has always been to denied, denied, denied when it comes to these civilian assassinations in russia, even when the over well the overwhelming amount of evidence points to key of being responsible for these things. so of course, it's very uprising and shocking when the chief of ukrainian intelligence kid elbow donald is actually seems to be saying what russia has been saying all along with take listen to what he said was it was we wish it's, it's obvious that it wasn't us behind the bomb that killed jury duty. no, but if the time comes we will. we get that disgusting solar view of duty and or see money on are the targets today?

well, let's put it this way. we already got a lot of people. there are certain media public cases that become known to everyone . what about her lip, and was he a part of that picture? when talking about specific people, then i'll have to give you a class, the global secret service response. we cannot comment on this situation. we cannot confirm or deny this information for that are so it's quick to call out who don't have statements and even called for a united nations review of them. as for today, actually the chief of ukrainian intelligence back track the little bit, he said that he was only referring to people considered to be war criminals. and this is pretty vague, considering the fact that anyone kia doesn't really like whether they be a combatant or a journalist like daria do gonna or um, as a higher p lip. and they can have these labels if you have just doesn't like them. well, the comments were pretty stark that we've just seen there were in say, one of our reaction to them from the west of western doctors condemned. well,

despite donald's, blatant admission of assassinating civilians, the west once again has generally remained either silent or really some sort of general statements against terrorism which the secretary of the united nations also did. and this is something of course that has seriously upset to the russia and the russian foreign ministry spokeswoman murray is a hire of a was not happy about it. i have not seen the quote, i am not able to talk on the veracity of it. the un, not in the form of a collective countries, but in the form of it's the criteria it could not give any answer to this. absolutely clear in your face admission to funded yard stated that she had not use such a statement. this is tory just, there's no excuse for the you and secretariat and considering these statements. i mean, probably one of the most ironic aspects of this story is that the us state department recently said it hasn't taken off the table putting russia onto its list of state sponsors of terror. when we spoke to gelsburg, bass, political commentator and funder a, b, serbia,

african investment for in the dark through the charge, he sees all directions point to ukraine following a policy of state sponsored terror against russians. as being fueled by the west commons of the ukrainian assault code, general boring, exhausting the same media sitting very much supported with the rest everything user logs onto the um, the works basically as long as they fulfilled their political needs. if you're going to look into the pieces are less key policies is to go now. but in increasing the categories and the talk came to the nation category, and we're just going to be very, very dangerous for us. i don't have time to do anything insightful. this meant everything to be able to cover, not the stop of the brutal, brutal categories. i talk to dollars that a terrorist attacks, you know,

and there is a lot of the way that you can describe that. but actually, there is a back, you know, killing the, an innocent civilian. this is absolutely not acceptable. i mean, the risk obviously is suppressing every freedom of expression every different to you. and whoever comes up and say anything proposing that these are going to be seeming the risk and of the fuel it sir. award winning investigative journalist seymour hersh has revealed the european leaders are urging president zalinski to sit down for peace talks. and in the conflict that says neighboring countries, people of pension accommodating millions of ukrainian refugees. knowledgeable american officials tells me that some of the leadership in hungary and poland were among those working to get ukraine involved in serious talks with moscow. hungry is a big player in this, and so our poland in germany,

and they're working to get zelinski to come around. the american official said, the european leaders have made it clear that zelinski can keep what he's got. a villain, italy, an interest in off shore bank accounts. if he works up a piece still, even if he's got to be paid off. if it's the only way to get a deal. less growth locked, archie contributor rachel marston for her to rachel. i think it's something most of us have suspected for a while away from public consumption presidency. lensky is being urged to move towards pace. bye bye. so take us through what seymour her says, fine then, or yeah, well, hers is back to spill some pricing hot tea, some real good gossip about what's really happening behind the scenes of the western unity circus. according to, i'm named washington officials and his us intelligence sources. now what stands out in this reporting here are allegations that the white house isn't really that

interested in what its own intelligence community has to say when it comes to ukraine. specifically that there's a political will to keep zalinski propped up right where he is. but that the us intelligence community is getting word from officials of eastern european countries that they want peace, if only because the endless flood of ukrainian refugees spilling into their countries and into the rest of the border free euro zone estimated by the united nations to be about 3000000 so far and about 3 quarters is that women and children, it's all getting really costly since those people have to be supported. and her says that this is one area in which poland and hungry actually agree on something. if you can believe that, and now some of their top level officials are apparently acting like the best friends of a couple. they want to see work things out pushing to get ukraine to talk to rock

china and russia to talk to ukraine. and there's nothing like a need for cash to bring their country down to earth. if only the white house would stop interfering in getting you crazy to that point. ukraine is running out of money and it is known that the next 4 months are critical and eastern europeans are also talking about a deal. the issue for them, the official tells me, is how to get the united states to stop supporting zalinski. the white house support goes beyond the needs of the war. we are paying off all the retirement funds. the $41.00 k is for ukraine, a pain all there. her one day is. that's nice. maybe you have friends protesting in the streets these days against the government klein back retirement benefits and being told by french president emmanuel and not cool that the era of abundance is over. should just go and get some western pension money over and ukraine. so not only of western weapons, been getting in the way of

a trip to the negotiating table for zalinski to but, but apparently, eastern european officials are telling us intelligence sources that western cash is to. and it's not just the basics that the west is covering for ukraine, as you heard there. hers is reporting according to an american official that there's a lot more than that. zalinski wants more of the officials, said zalinski is telling us that if he wants to win the war, you've got to give me more money in more stuff. he tells us, i've got to pay off the generals. he's telling us if he's forced out of office, he's going to the highest bidder. he'd rather go to italy than stay and possibly get killed by his own people. i rather go to italy or spain paying off generals, give me more stuff holy out for the best offer for himself. i'm wanting to avoid being killed by his own people. if that's all true, then it really sounds like zalinski and ukraine have really been working hard on

developing those european values. as you commission president and queen are some of under light, keeps congratulating them for. so the bottom line here is that eastern europe, despite publicly supporting zelinski, apparently have had their fill it in. and of this conflict, washington has a political agenda to keep playing zelinski until he and ukraine both break and they don't really seem to care too much about what their own intelligence is saying . and western europe is just sitting there patiently on it. so we at biden's feet, no doubt, they're waiting for his class use to move so he can maybe take them for a walk key. so they can perhaps heard me for themselves. delving into that, that revelations, i think it's safe to say by seymour hersh, archie contributor, rachel martin, rachel, anything no more news at this hour.

a critical deal. allowing brain to be safely exported via the black sea locks. the ports has been extended for another 2 months now that was an honest a short time earlier by turkish present rigid type or the one with the efforts of our country, the support of our russian friends and the contributions of our ukranian friends. it was decided to extend the black sea green corridor agreement for another 2 months. we will continue our efforts to ensure that all the conditions of the agreement are fulfilled and that it will continue in the next period of the essential that the, the marks and important step towards global food security going forward. according to russia's for the ministry. quote, the pro long ation ensure is food stability and any discrepancies in its implementation should be corrected as soon as possible. now the agreement still opposition from most squarely or after exports of we went to richer countries instead of those most in need. and the global side obstacles to russia's grain on fertilizer exports again,

generally to developing nations because of the sanctions have been another speaking in the turkish opposition. candidates. kimball coach donald, who has branded president, are the one false leader, as promised to do everything in his power to own see, to the who will not leave our homeland to a fake. we're a leader who and so yesterday was the co chairman of the b. o. b, and there's no hands in food in the direction of russia. lots, as the opposition has already made a number of attempts to ignite protests ahead of a presidential election run off. later this month. the spike claims about electro ford failing to be collaborated ortiz, the course of all of picks it up from there. uh, for a knife edge. first round t a is headed for a run of presidential election. what is special about this race?

is the both candidates incumbent press up the gun and his old position rival come out? they seemed to be bracing more for the fate instead of victory. even the head of the vote, the 1st exit polls showed uncomfortably at his lead. kept shrinking, though as more and more ballots were counted. but the old position that had all hoped spend on the 2nd round, took no chances and jumped to discredit the official tale. we are addressing you on behalf of all so teens precedents, kim, alkalis star, although we are experiencing the same thing over and over again since the municipal elections of 2019. and the total agency has answered a vegetative state and is waiting for all government to bring it to census and is all ages this reputation is below 0. we are all citizens not to respect the information. a strategy as old as democracy itself, reject uncomfortable results and acknowledge riots. it didn't come this far

following the 1st round, but simply because turkeys ruling a lead subpoenaed to be fine with taking the election to the knockout stage. those are still being counted and no official statement has been made on the results yet . but they attack and the agency and then go on to proclaim the election results the attempt to smear the official account was just the latest. they'll be all positions, attempts to cook up a pretext for mos protests. head of the vote. to mount bay accused russia of meddling in the election. the russian friends you are behind the montages conspiracies, the fate content and tapes that were exposed and based country yesterday. if you want our friendship to continue after may 15th gets the hands of the torture state, we are still in favor of cooperation and friendship. he liked to have respectfully

back tracked upon realizing there was no real link between the pool. he made the fake video he had referred to, and russia will sit on, you know, for that we think rush of for it statement in which it assured that it's not interfering in elections, directly or digitally. there are no issues and we have no problems with the russian people. on the contrary, i have referred to them as my friends and its sweet oh, the guns of dreams of an easy victory, faded with every new ballad. knowing that the wind that takes at all, he pre empted the rifle or the guns to port his home, the streets of the old position, govern capital, and correct, sending a distinct signal. the 2 can play the game of protests after all, the old position has been quite vocal about the grudges towards the gun and his retinue. earlier, i heard some reaction from turkish during the last. yes, american who stays at the opposition. the figurehead has failed to deliver on his promise to the feats president or the one in the 1st at run last sunday. so now

he's desperately trying to gain support and get people out to vote again and next weekend. if we look at the dynamics that were in place leading up to the elections of the opposition party and his presidential time of the general coverage that over promised at folders that they would and this electoral process and the elections on in the 1st round. so the congress and they were not in a position to deliver since the income the president would want change to the vast majority of the votes. so there's a great deal of talk within the country that the opposition isn't a position where it needs to ensure that it to ensure that its voters will take to the pose once again, that they have the incentives that are necessary to ensure that they are in a position to on seats and the pride of the incoming president. however, this makes things a lot more difficult. any of the statements that were issued on the day of the election. and in the days that followed much of the turkish quarters or the church folders are in

a position where they can feel that the opposition alliance of the coalition is not their position, but it is comfortable. so if they are currently issuing its statements to ensure that not only taking ensure their voters to come, i'll go to the polls 2 weeks from now. but more importantly to gain the support i've seen on the one was also a presidential candidates all aboard. russian president vladimir put non his armenian culture part able to him. right. so you have taken part in this are a money marketing the signing of an agreement on the construction of a new railway. in around the rushed us started, which will become part of the international north side transport car door connecting india around russia as or by john and some other big players by a real m. c. beloved group. it saves the 162 kilometer really way. how long the caspian sea coast will help to connect russian ports on the baltic sea with a reading and harbors in the indian ocean of the gulf,

president putting out about the launch of the rear wheel diversified global traffic flow is a big issue right about now. and significantly, which is carbo traveling, that you will see about transportation along the new car door will have significant competitive advantages. for example, the transportation of cargo from st. petersburg to move by will take about 10 days for comparison, the travel time on traditional trade routes takes between 30 and 45 days. this new route will help to have significant time and cost savings by so. so this project is a symbol of the multi faceted friendship between us. it will give a great name, but as to the development of the comprehensive corporation. in fact, this project began 2 decades ago, but due to objective reasons, its implementation was suspended several types. thanks to the i'm, we'll of the leaders of the 2 states. we managed to reach concrete agreements on these project. think come to an agreement,

go for more on this new project between russia under run. what it means on how to rob is increasingly becoming a trade hub in the middle east. got over to r t dot com. it'll do the heavy lifting for you, the okay. developments in the financial world to keep you aware of iraq's government has bomb the use of the american dollar for personal commercial transactions in the western asian country, the interior ministry justified the move as an attempt to boost their wrecks national currency. the dean are on to control a fluctuating block. the market exchange rate violators of the new regulations will be find $1000000.00 the equivalent of a run. $760.00 repeat offenders will face harsher punishment, including prison rack has been ripped by staggering inflation for the past 6 months . while the country is still struggling to peace, its economy bought together after the damage done by the american invasion and

occupation 20 years ago. so discuss this with a rock, the parliament foreign policy adviser. ok. the rush state is also president of the high silver rocky expertise funding vision. and we welcome you on to the program, your assessments, and all of these find not show restrictions this move by the iraqi government. is it the best approach for bugged out the ticket? the moment was it overdoing coming? well, it depends on what's, what's going to happen because uh, what, uh the rock and government declare a binding the donor and may call dimensions all the pricing and be not. it looks like that the rocky government already has a crisis of raising up the rate exchange of the dollar. so that means we're going to do that. there will be a delayed and accepting the budget of by the government, a study by the parliament from the government,

which means that they're going to be that they will be a delay in voting for the, for the budget in the bottom. and this is for the secondly, what's the governments want is try to control the exchange rate because they know very well of exchange rate is still going fluctuate and increasing uh, continuously. that means iraq going to be in a very delicate situation and the government. this government will be also in a delicate situation in front of the fundamental because the fall of months will not accept any budget to come from the government for 3 years. because what the government is proposing is that this budget is not the only for the 2023. it's for the 202320242025. so for 3 years with a deficit about $60000000000.00 there will be and we'll, uh, economy color crisis which will be accumulated, viewed after the year. so i think so don, you need to manage this

a crisis anyway. try to stop this raising up for the exchange rate by making everything by iraq. you do know it's interesting isn't because this is the, the latest country and there's been some bigger economies getting involved in the process. the solely in process of the dollar rise ation saying we want to do deals in our own currency at bypass the middle month. it's going to be more lucrative for us in the long run. now you've got countries like a rock, you know, middle sized economies troubles, but they're thinking we need to do this to, to survive. how does washington respond? and then the other side? well, it, it looks like the monetary policy of the, of the rocky government. it's not permanent, it looks like it, they are not looking for strategic a way to treat the crisis. it's more or less, it's $1031.00 because this government has

a 3 main stages. stage number one is that convincing the problem and 2 votes to the budget that had been transferred from the government to the bottom. and this is for secondly, try to get benefits from the money that it will be x. that will be so much in benefit for the government because already, if the voting will happen, it will happen in june. that means we have only 6 months to spend the money of 2023 . the 3rd stage is that's how you can, how you can put this money for the strategic project, stuff it will be held and ended in the 5 years. so all those steps that the rocky governments want to do, want to make one to convince the government one to convince depaula meant to do. it looks like what's, what's happening with the dollar with exchange rate and rising stranger exchange, right? there will be a real problem in, in front of the problem and this is for secondly, there are now it looks like there is

a political dispute between uh the she i call ition called the bottom themselves. is that why we should support so dire need? because donnie is not managing uh the uh, the budget. any way that it will save us from the economy come across is because we all know maybe the oil prices will be, will drop down and we will go forward for the prices. and can i just briefly touch while we have you on the program, sir? at the issue then of, of inflation why that's being seen. the, those in credible ups heard price rises, a rock came under us on to renew back in 2003. some of those restrictions have still not being lifted. it's seen as one of the reasons why the situation iraq is in right. not. why have those sanctions not being lifted as well? it looks like they're americans are looking for this government as some sort of

a french government because the in box it up there might have been invested in by somebody yesterday or the day before yesterday said it, it's a good loudly is that a, mr. donnie, your government is back by the administrator, so at which is pro it any and so we cannot, you know, add another support such a government and it looks like even this crisis, the financial across starts helping with the raising up the exchange rate. it looks like the money comes along, some is something, or let's say a going to get benefit from that to make more pressure on the market. government to be in a way to another own and to try to adopt the situation and make it bouncing between your on america relationship for this government. it looks like that. but the say quickly, if the rocky government didn't manage to try to control the exchange rate, this equipment will be very bad for 6, especially iraq. now, how so many a problems? it's not the only financial, it's also. 2 climate change and it's also so many things concerning health

conditions and so on. so that's why the governments want to make some sort of achievement in front of the people because we have the elections prevention of elections in december. so as a donnie is looking forward for this election in a way to say to the rocky people is not making achievements. so please let those go for what and then the next election, the next provincial election. and or maybe you want to make some sort of a win win in this election by making those achievements. well we, we, it with interest book comes from it. thanks very much for, for a filling in the blanks and all that for us. we do appreciate that a rocky parliament foreign policy advisor. ok, mid rush. the live authority the most dove in police, storm pulling stations overnights and confiscated bullets softer and opposition. candidates won an election in the thomas region of go was the not for the edge here shows officers coming large boxes with ballots. despite resistance from local residents,

reports say the raid was conducted because of the central election commission's violations in that area, including quote, a legal financing of a big come pay you have any, a good sol says that's not the case. she came on the top. in fact, in sunday's vote and condemned the actions of the police, seeing them, old tobin president is going against the people to well knock despite a lot in the slide. victory authorities confiscated the ballad, seemingly in order to prevent their confirmation in court. the country's prime minister also called for the result to become sold with mo, dove, is government accusing the opposition of pro russian said previously multiple russian language tv channels being fund, as well as other culturally significant symbols like basic georgia's written. meanwhile, thousands of tobin flocked to the streets of the nation's capital to express their frustration over what they're calling political persecution against the opposition

facebook and who they believe is responsible for that. instead of. 7 they talk about democracy, about human rights, and i'm just comparing to you who actually teaches those democracy. how many native americans are in the us congress who teaches those democracy and will listen to them without most open good earns money from war some for and so the very same country, the united states of america today, they can band a party and people won't say a thing then tomorrow they'll lock up a purse so, and people will take that to then they will come to your house, accuse you. and no one will protect you is there's already a precedence. so if we're talking about the rule of law, that means that the laws above all, and not decisions dictated by resentment. among the most alarming scenes of violence across the globe right now are being witnessed against christians and i forget. next we focus on the rise in killings,
