sibling cl for a 4 year up since they moved spark deductions in the georgia in parliament with opposition. octave is taking to the streets on f. b, i went to the blower, it tells congress that under cover agents of upsets were present at the us congress riots in 2021. that's the reason the agencies refusing to release surveillance for the, for non controversial the for the morning in caracas for in the afternoon and singapore and 11 am here in moscow this saturday may the 20th, this is our to international. as we begin and don't boss the done yet, squared public's capital city came under further. you creating that tech on friday with one person killed and for more wounded. according to local officials, hospital several apartment blocks and a supermarket where i'm on disability,

an infrastructure head r t. steve sweeney stone. the damage for himself. the suit from ok and don't yet city center remains open despite being shell by ukrainian forces over nights. is believe that it was struck by a grad, missed on causing damage to the front and side of the shop. we spoke to a number of the workers and shoppers here. what are your thoughts? she is the one but the most up with very words about showing because on peaceful area here shelled every day. the civilian population has been destroyed. houses, people, children. there was a cluster of people caused values. why would you shoot at the store? only to destroy civilians. how long will a zone go on? the strike of peaceful houses at civilians. how do we experience all this? we move on, we have no other choice because we are the land of real men, the land of real women. we just won't give up. we want to live, we want our children, our parents to live. we continue to work despite the showing because so few shops

remains. this is part of the rocket that struck in the early hours of the morning, damaging the show and also impacting here, leaving this crate to in this apartment was also damaged and shedding over nights. and we've met some of the distress residents and see the damage caused inside. as you can see above me, the windows here have been blown out as broken glass everywhere on the floor here. a number of calls were a so damaged in the bloss, the during the shell and i was in the kitchen when the 1st drug took place. it was very loud and scary. they hit the gas pipe with shells, with a gas went out in the lodge street. i went to the kitchen, but there was no way to go. there was gas at the exit. it was terrible there and no miniature installations here, the just intimate dates, civilians. they're probably having fun. apparently they know where they're shooting the as much as we barely survive, the showing. the worst thing was

a gas leak. all the glass is broken. the cleaning army is shooting it civilians and they started their rule in this way. in 2014, we were sitting here in the basement. they fired at the city. there are no forces anymore. this is inappropriate behavior. a normal person would not shoot old people, women, children who are left, they hear it's just a crime. terrorism. as this children's playground was struck by you quite a new setting over night. this slide is you can see it has been damaged by scrap. no. this is a residential area around me or a palm and broke. there was no military presence here. many of the children that use this playground would have been born off the 2014. so they would know nothing but war deal slid out the balls a projectile end the thumb. we got scared, started to lift up the children and hide them and then it began to fly around inside. here we lay down on the floor, made it on time. the last started to fly out, it's covering the ground scary. at least i broke it struck this residential area

and don't yet said he sent it, causing the damage in the destruction that you can see all around me. clean up operations are underway, as residents express a mixture of the a, a and the daily setting that has become part of the everyday life. this is steve sweetie. net city center for all to the tensions have spilled over in the george in parliament. and he's debated the merits of flights resuming directly to and from russia, where it's appeared in sufficient to settle the dispute. the one of the lawmakers was returning to his seat after making a speech on the matter when the arrival politician. some of them tossed a verbal job, the trade calvin souls quickly escalated and only their colleagues separate. the 2

from london. and the real significance blues, or protests are up to the police airport this week after the 1st passenger plane direct from moscow, london in georgia for the 1st time since 2019 georgian opposition. activists have fixed price stock rate jet. any improvement in relations with russia during the airport demonstrations police blocked access to the terminal, and then the attempt to calm the situation. will the decision to resume direct direct traffic as russia has been criticized by the georgian president, the european union, i'm the united states with washington threatening to impose sanctions on georgia. the nation's prime minister, however, has said re establishing flights was the right decision, re affirming georgia's intention to continue trade on economic relations with its neighbour. some travelers also share their feelings on the return of direct trips. before that i was throwing another airline armenian. so it would be

a flight. it's not good, isn't spending several hours such close distance. so traveling here would be much fast. it's a 6. it's susan, is there a good decision for people at the blog might be able to apply a flu head to georgia with a layer but and then back to moscow in a direct flight. i'm very glad that does now direct flight from to release you to moscow. this is a great opportunity because there's the most you'd have to put them on. we're very happy now the 3rd direct flights. we bought our tickets in the 1st 10 minutes. of course it is more convenient. we drove here through the logic of kos then took a car. now it is become much easier and faster. was he had just on this story, we spoke with a political scientist from the center for globalization problems. i think time he sees the break in volume left for relations has cost georgians over the years, and believe the government was doing the bidding of its western partners for us.

yeah, well, beautiful pressure rank 1st in terms of volume is money transfers in georgia. my immigrants from georgia left due to the lack of welcome to you in cheese and the republic itself. this money makes up a significant part of george's turnover. these people would the price of the opportunity to see that families are for us. there was a strict v that regime and getting a visa was a major problem. so people did not see each other for years. secondly, there was no direct flights. people had to fly through the countries was expensive and inconvenient and their phone. a vast majority of the population perceived the resumption of ad traffic as a blessing to americans and europeans. treasures costly demanded that georgia fulfill the requirements in return. they gave empty promises about joining nato and the european union. the group of 7 summit kicked off on friday in japan right out of the gates, new initiatives to try and hurt law school where discussed among them. the u. k. a

non russian diamonds aren't so brilliant anymore, and would be sanctioning imports of nature's hardest material, are to come to be the original marston oftener take on the british. prime minister richie soon have arrived at the g 7 summit in hiroshima, japan, and properly treated what looked like an invitation to a destination wedding there between himself and you for any and present blinders. zalinski that one of his kids hooked up with an app on their smartphone or something, but there will be no diamonds involved in this particular love affair. see, next pacifically announced alongside the our work where banning all in birds of russian diamonds, copper, l. a medium, a nickel sanctions are having a clear impact and degrading prudence. war effort. the jew 7 stands united with ukraine. degrading is a more app description for what's happening to your opinions quality of life and

purchasing power as sanctions are. having such a quote, clear impact on russia that the west is still having to pump up you frame with weapons and cash at the expense of their own citizens. so it looks like soon as roman turnaround is couch cushions and found something russian that was still left to sanction russian diamonds, which represent a drop in the proverbial pocket of british diamond imports. despite russia being one of the largest dining producers in the entire world. now the u. k, mainly imports these gems from belgium, israel, the us hong kong in india. although after the onset of the ukraine conflict, the u. k. did really ramp up. it's russian diamond buying from around a $188000.00 in 2021 to $4100000.00 worth in 2022. that's it for you to western press reports. so that means that the same time, that's due, next tory government colleagues were all obsessing over the idea of depriving russian president vladimir putin personally of lunch money and fantasizing that it

would make him a band and strategic national security object is involving ukraine at the same time the u. k was buying up russian diamonds like they were b pies on sale. it sainsbury's and of the diamonds coming into the u. k. through these talks to claim nations. it's pretty much impossible to know which of those are actually sourced from russia. belgium, for example, said the imported $1200000000.00 euros worth of russian diamonds in the 1st 8 months of 2022, which is about on par with the $1800000000.00 euros in port in 2021. when about a quarter of diamonds being sold out as the world's biggest diamond trading hub in and for belgium came from russia. so this all is starting to look like the same sort of game that the europeans have been playing with their russian energy sections. they make a big show of purchasing like their bands,

but then they just end up buying russian energy anyway after it integrates to 3rd countries like india for example. and now the european union is even angry about that. like, what did they expect for india to break up the microscope and power? so the rest of molecules from the indian part use india and officials are basically say, hey, look guys, you're buying indian fuel. and who are you take issue with russian fuel that may have come over at some point. and now self identifies has indian. so now the same western obsession of separating out the citizenship of energy in attempt to stick it to russia. now, risk playing out with diamonds as well, and western alice, or se that could end up backfiring on them. the debate has been going on for some time because there was a clear risk that russia could simply divert, as i suppose,

to non participating countries. extensions were implemented in a way that mesa convention difficult though. then we can see less russian supply coming onto the market. and high prices. therapy in union has been resisting a bad on russian diamonds so far. but when they're all now over there at the g 7 summit with zalinski expected to attend, it's not a given that common sense will actually prevail. it risk being like a bunch of boys trying to impress that one girl at a frat party by doing back flips off the roof. and obviously, nothing good can come of that. the get a lot of reaction to this next door, an f b, i was sold for a testifying at a us congressional ring house between the undercover officers and the bureaus upsets were present at the capital building during the january 2021 on risk. the extent of their involvement that was still to be terrified. more than

a 1000 people have been charged with federal crimes for there are a legit rules in the storming of congress. supporters up to binding to the day as an insurrection name that blocking the transport power after former president donald trump selections to feed, mr. trump was subsequently impeached, but not convicted for allegedly inciting the violent know the f. b, i is refusing to release large parts of the surveillance footage from the day saying it would expose the identities of agents. and then for me how's priorities conversation. ready in july, can you show us, why can't you just send us the back, give us access to the 11000 hours of video. this is a, this is bill because there may be, may be to use these undercover officers for c h. s is confidential hearing. ready confidential human sources on those videos whose identity we need to protest while

we have a former f b i employees coming forward and testifying about what they see as polluters, ization of these investigations. the to meant as to by the they had their security clearances revoked by the the i in response to their political view is about the january 6th events. the i whistle blower of oil has previously testified about how he and his family were made temporarily homeless when he received an indefinite suspension from the f. b. i. how do you think that solves being able to shine light on corruption, weatherization, any kind of mist dr. misconduct that exist with the americans, it doesn't solve it, but the guy will crush you. this government will crush you and your family. if you try to expose the truth about things that they are doing that are wrong, and we are all examples of that. details also works shed uh, in the testimony we heard about the extent to which the i surveillance escalated in

the aftermath of the january. 6th of that. so it was heard some outrage about the privacy of americans and the extent to which the f b, i was acquiring information about banking transactions. here's some of what we heard on capital hill. bank of america turned over the credit card transactions, whether for an aircraft or a lodging or the purchase of a cup of coffee for everyone who decided to come to washington to be in washington area of the northern virginia area. which one of the things that you asked questions about? there are victims all over the place. all of the people who suffered when the f b. i and the department of homeland security got involved in censorship with social media platforms, millions and millions of tweets and narratives being taken down,

that is victimization at scale. the we now have further confirmation that among those who perpetrated the events on january 6th, there were under cover at the informants, possibly others involved with different security services and different intelligence agencies. this raises many questions and while one version of the january 6, the dance was certainly all over the media and it's direct aftermath. more details are coming to the surface about how exactly the days of the land as they did with more questions being raised than answers being provided or related to the most skill has sanctioned those in the us government and law enforcement agencies who were quote, directly involved in the persecution of dissidents in the wake of the so called storming of the capitol, former us president, brock obama was also among the 500 new civil figures not bomb from entering russia . in addition to politicians, the list includes military officials, businesspeople,

in experts anomaly as seen as being hostile to rush it. the move follows increased the american sanctions on the school, and in particular the recent steps taken up prevented russian journalist from attending un security council meetings in new york. conservative daily podcast host jewels meant to list the russian for administrators to create is a logical consequence of wave after wave of us pressure. and i wouldn't think that obama would make his way over to russia any time soon, but uh, you know, it, it does send a strong message that, uh, the sections and things done by the us when i go and checked around punished. so i think it was smart on, and i think it was smart for rushing to hold them accountable. and even more so the people that were on the list of the 500 people, not just obama, but the other people are not just fears. critics of russia, their future critics of truth, so they are constantly pushing around people in the united states. so send

a strong message and i think that it aligns with the most people that are reasonable, serious people in the people that are on the, the radical left or people that are just running around spreading lies and telling us how safe, secure and sensible everything is i think this is going to have more of a shaking effect on them. montana has become the 1st us state to bon tick tock. the ruling will come into effect next year. it follows the local governors accusation. the popular up is being used by beijing to spy on americans. the chinese communist party using take talk just by an americans violate their privacy and collect their personal private and sensitive information as well documented to damon town and takes the most decisive action of any state to protect them and tenants private data insensitive personal information from being harvested by the chinese communist party from january any ups store offering the done

load will be fine, $10000.00 per day. and every time a user gains new access to the application. the state governor has also suggested bonding every far enough that could gather americans data, naming not only chinese, but russian social media as well. china has repeatedly opposed a how like ations that it's harvesting users. info. tech talk is expected to challenge the journalist town or 3rd, daniel is our say, use the republican parties on t, china, maybe it has reached new heights. this is ludicrous. it's laughable. i mean, it's, it's a, it's a spy. many, as you pointed out, and it's not re, can, it cannot be explained in rational terms. that's the important thing. so, so it's, it's not a case of what the governor wants, whether you have some kind of rational alternative. he is simply seized by an antique chinese mania and is acting on that impulse. it's very simple. it's very

crazy, but very simple. the republican party in america is just going crazy. i, and, and montana is controlled by the republican party. they are just like, you know, seized with xena phobia, anti chinese fervor. they're convinced they are chinese spies behind every tree under every bed. and it's really leaching ludicrous extremes. okay, something else to tell you about today. and crux has some of the german, i'm busted, or after 2 journalist from a turkish news item that were detained in frankfort on weight and state the reporters from the daily sub, but were released later that day with the countries for administer saying the rest were disgraceful the detention of funk for the representative of savannah newspaper, but the china and police without justification is inactive for us, meant and in simulation against attack. express was strongly condemned the heinous

act. the german police rated the journalist homes on wednesday morning and reportedly seized a number of mobile phones and laptops. a lawyer for the newspapers said the men were detained after a complaint was lodge by a political organization. an organization on for a husband is a turbo group. when the raid came just 3 days after the 1st round of the turkish presidential election last weekend, leading some to question the timing of the arrest, present liter ridge of type or, and one. talk to the ballot, which unless say was not the result berlin was hoping for with no candidate reaching the 50 percent special needed to secure victory. i run off between mister, are the one on main opposition rival came out collection. those will take place on may 20 but earlier we spoke with the news coordinator of the daily. so the update on the same check has been tains. if it had been western during the list obtained, it would have been

a very different international reaction. a sinister me shortly, jim by care. now this operation against journalists in the name of freedom and democracy, one of the most important countries with the largest economy in europe, has once again shown that it's a democracy in name only. as a journalist, i'm scared to go to germany. i am also scared that i may be arrested there. unfortunately, the german state, which is very concerned about the political relations that have recently developed between turkey and russia, is currently increasing pressure on the turks. unfortunately, the western press is under siege because they cannot write anything that contradicts the policy determined by the european union and the united states. if german or port us were arrested in turkey, a journalist from all over europe would protest against that. the european union, especially germany and the united states, will argue that there are no human rights and turk. yeah, there is no democracy there. the judge of young is a dictator that he's an autocrat. but when germany does the same thing, as you see,

nothing happens, no one makes a sound the is really parliament has advanced a bill that would make it a crime with a year behind bars for groups of 3 people or more flying the palestinian flag together. during protest, in addition, the legislation would give us really, authorities the right to criminalize palestinian roberts. the bill was approved in its 1st readings and will not be turned over for further legislative processes before potentially becoming law. last year the can nested, floated another controversial proposal, the fund raising the palestinian flag, its state funded institutions. the 1000000 come us military group and gals that it has condemned the current bill releasing a statement that said the initiative was an act of religious war on the policy and even people to attention from an extremely high in the region this policy means passed with is released during the controversal flag march in jerusalem this week, marking israel's capture of the city in 1967. that's the trade of strikes between

the sites. those rockets were fired goza in response to id for a, strikes on the territory. 5 estimates militant columbus were killed. those were dozens of civilians in the bombardment on apartment blocks, including a russian service workers at the doctors, gas, political on list, i'm your and saves the far right party behind the legislation pushed similar ideas and the one cannot comment. uh, one visa issue without the very broad green or even a smile because it's just a clownish gesture on the part of the most extreme right. member of the coalition who always uh, come up with some outland beach ideas. it has nothing to do. we use the real lives in israel now and uh, you know,

a 2 people stand 20 feet above waiving the plastic and the 3rd president comes over . but stand, zip up, use the policeman. they're going to arrest them. obviously, this is not enforceable. just drug patient, just another street in the face of peace loving people. um, either a police geniune always really. but nevertheless, what is around these can do is booked up the 2 flex together. if they had the sort of an emblem where the police geniune and these really flags of flying, who's going to take down this double leg, which includes these rally? well, so there are many ways to bypass base mockery of legislation. okay, before we go, i just want to show you this. a fleet of russian helicopters has arrived and is involved with capital. hi,

ray and bob with president emerson and then guideway and the russian boss straight to the country, spoke about the importance of cooperation and mutual support during a time when both of the states are under the pressure of western sanctions. the yes we everything on the sanctions boost pressure west. the vision is how i p s o to rice. i finished the government the mass, but most of the site where it is, it makes us proud that the current jo, political situation, russia mc, but as the over the friends and has the insurrection just by

stress of sanctions and challenges of the turbo and times believe through because the ultimate goal of our governments and business is to make the life of our people more comfortable. safe and secure. yeah, you can just see them in the background. they're 18 i'm south of russian helicopters were handed over uh, the rubber boot comedy international airport. the exchange was made with the participation of the russian state corporation ross tech, who's director general also attended the event. according to local officials, 12 helicopters will be dedicated for disaster management. well, 6 others will be taught to use in law enforcement. by 2025, the size of the country speed is expected to grow nearly 3 dozen. now why has the us 2 parties this the never released thoughts dominant so rooted the spike more and more folder thing. the g o. p and dens policy,

some things don't speak for them anymore. direct impact. but rick sanchez dells into that part of the docs. and it's next a the, [000:00:00;00]

the, the russian states never is as tight as one of the most sense community. best of all, send, send up the in the system to progress be the one else calls question about this, even though we will then in the european union, the kremlin media mission, the state on trustworthy and supports the ortiz full neck team. and our video agency roughly all the band on youtube tv services for the
