operations and we intend to pursue our original policy. we are equally in favor of cooperating with other countries that wants to do so. but today we see much of the west holding the attitude of, if you're not with us, you're against us. if you're not against russia, you're against us, and that is not in the world's interest what the world needs today. russia is undoubtedly a great country and they didn't want to listen to russia when it warrens about certain apprehensions and views that has over situations that threaten disposition . they refused to talk about this. and remember that before the military operation began, russia presented the west with a document concerning its security. and surprisingly, no one reacted to it. this is the typical arrogance of the west, which rejects the opinions of others and whose policies are generally conducted

according to lobbying efforts, or are motivated by long term strategic interests to get what they want. as is the case of russia, this isn't about protecting ukraine. it is just an excuse they're using to play on emotions within the real points, i think is that russia has huge and limitless resources. and the west's main goal is to process that, which in fact is few tile western europe doesn't have oil or gas, no, rear metals, no cold, no resources or many other things that are important for the future of the world. meanwhile, guitars, energy ministers as europe got lucky last winter and was saved from an energy collapse by warm weather. also warning that the worst is yet to come unless brussels overhauls its green agenda, the economy start churning back up in 24. and you have that easily just said i get

into winter. i think i think the worse is yes to come. if they don't realize that then have a proper plan and sit down with, with us as an oil and gas companies and the demonize them. and you know, the attitude will kick in and i think we'll have a sense of a solution. so the big question, booming over europe, is whether we're still going to be hounded again here for the latter part of the year over our shower time, air conditioning and heating use and all signs point to yes. even the head of friends energy drive, all he told the french press last month at the same conservation precautions will have to be taken as last year, even though he's optimistic. he says, because europe is tapping norway and the us for energy. yeah. at several times, the price of what europe used to pay for russian energy though, just to give you an idea of the kind of social friction all of this is causing. i was at my local gym here in paris today, where the summer weather is arriving really quickly and management is in

a stand off, you can say with the clientele as a result of them refusing to drop the temperature in the gym below 19 degrees celsius because they want to save on air conditioning energy costs rather last year that you ordered limitations on how hot or cold you could keep facilities. and then many countries, including friends, actually implemented that with legislation. well, now there's a lot of confusion as to what still applies and what doesn't, and who has to apply it, whether it's everyone or just ginger offices. so, you know, beyond not the problem now really goes to also how much energy there is or will be next winter, and how much people are going to pay for that. supply going forward. as french president under and maximize said the age of abundance is over. and of course he said that as the sens ukrainian president varner zalinski to the g 7 in here are shima on plane funded by the french tax payers. like it was an uber ride,

the 2 best gross couldn't even be bothered to carpet. busy or plain pool, but it sounds like hum, gary, and prime minister victor or bon, who put his foot down on the fire. who is it, seemingly endless? you tax payer cash flowing into ukraine as aid and is also rejected. and yet another round of anti russian. you sanctions is making some enemies now within the establishment for standing up for the, for put upon european tax there who's getting a manifest we for return on their investment. my position is that the looking good . the only thing we're looking at, if he goes looking at the surroundings, looking at the fact that the natal is not ready to send troops, it's obvious that that is no victory for uh are you quit for the premiums on the battlefield? whoever. right, then whoever not likely describe the situation does frustrating way that you can,

but the question is not with the tool. depression is what you would be the next morning. feel the next morning. the fact these that more and more people will die. yeah, the bottom line is that, well, the western establishment is picking sides over the ukraine conflict and trash talking russia like it's the other team in a football game. there are just people dying and ukraine, but also apparently in europe, according to the western press. last year the economy is predicted in november that the inability to pay for expensive heating costs during even a mild winter could result in tens of thousands of deaths. and now let's say that may indeed have been the case over the last winter, and that it may have even done more damage than during the coven. 19 pandemic. oregon is also explain why he sees the use and direction sanctions as ineffective. is that to go some field we introduced the sanctions in 3 years later, russia has built up its own agricultural food system. in those 3 years,

it built them up to such an extent that is hungry, wanted to explore products there. today. it either wouldn't succeed or would find it much more difficult than before the introduction of the sanctions to it was a fatal mistake to underestimate the adaptability of a country including a nation as powerful as russians. if i can see the russians adapting to the situation, created by the european restrictions sometimes says so basically saying that the sanctions, i just created more russian resiliency to the point where it's becoming so self sufficient that the you could find itself squeeze that of any potential feature market considerations. meanwhile, europeans are wondering when inflation and energy prices are going to go back down again. and the only response they're ever getting from their leaders. if anything at all, is that they should feel good about their short showers. i guess after dumping river of sweat under their treadmill at a gym heated to 90 degree celsius. why? well,

because it all makes russian president vladimir to me mad that they're saving so much energy. is that still this been line even though energy is an even coming from russia anymore? not too many people seem to be asking that question, at least not among the people running the show. now to key our tensions are running high ahead of the presidential run off elections. we're bringing you all the latest updates in our special coverage here on our tea. i strongly believe that we will continue to serve our nation for the next 5 years. we will absolutely, absolutely. when these elections in the 2nd round, everyone will see the, the only 4 days to the run off election. we're jeff target are the ones main

election rival come all to it's for all lou is building riley's to gain much needed support from his electorate. he once again vowed to send refugees back to their fame son trees within 2 years, despite it being a popular sentiment, it did not want him. the support of former presidential candidates to 9 o. one, asked his supporters to give their votes to earl one on monday. yeah, seeing i can explain why a georgina is heading to a winner take all presidential run off on may 28th. and the 2 remaining candidates, red zip, type out of the one and kim i'll coalition total or in a tight race. as both parties fell short of the 50 percent needed to with a total lions counted as seen on all one's endorsement of president or the one could be the boost, the incumbent needs to keep him in on cut off jobs that king maker say no, no one has clearly stated why he chose to back out along. it can just to the we

have help negotiations with reset the tie up already gone and come all kill each daughter lou. i declare we will support the people's alliance candidate reset the tie up are already gone in the run off. i invite our voters who voted for us and the 1st round to support mr. or to gone. i would like to underline that we have expressed our principles, the values we defend and are red lines without any bargaining engagements. commitment or demand, based on the ones read lines are the ones people's alliance was the closer of the 2 political blocks to his ideals. most prominently are the one has a firm stance towards the best and a tough position against terrorism and the expectation that he will prepare a roadmap for the return of silver and refugees for deciding factors for alonza endorsements. the alliance candidates fell to the outside support for coalition total from the h. d p. a pro curtis political party was a deal breaker for the national list. politician with elections just days away on

support for air. the one has dealt a critical blow to the hopes of opposition candidates html to the shuttle, or the one needing only less than one percent to win a new 5 year mandate has placed himself at the full position with the endorsements of on and the 5.2 percent vote he secured in the 1st round. the all position now has a tall mountain to climb. as turkish voters prepared to catch the bell is for the 2nd time later this month. just and again archie estoppel as chinese americans continue to be on the receiving end of rising hate crimes and racial bias in the united states while the f b, i in homeland security officials instead chose to focus on the chinese communist parties. a legend threat to the country. the threat from china is complex and asked the ccp is actively trying to undermine the economy and security of the united

states. threats and vulnerabilities to the homeland pose by the people's republic of china and counter evolving threats from the ccp now and into the future. so once again, we have members of the us congress meeting on capitol hill to discuss a supposed threat from beijing. the notion of a vast chinese conspiracy against our american way of life and precious bodily fluids never seems to get old. however, you will notice a certain theme and the comments of some of the lawmakers. it is important to be clear here that our adversary is the ccp, not the chinese people or people of chinese to send living and working in the united states. i'm very glad mister durham, that you made it very clear that this hearing should not be about chinese americans that could not sit in this hearing. if this was an attack on asian americans, chinese americans, and we have seen the rise and hatred of been defensive much. well, that's probably because the world has noticed what has been going on over the past

few years. americans of chinese does that have been targeted on ethnic base is innocent. people have had their lives destroyed, scientists have decided it would be better to work elsewhere. the department of justice is china initiative ended up being a big disaster. embers of congress even came together for a letter that they sent denouncing racial bias. but yet the anti china hysteria continues perhaps a bit or cautiously. we now have a lot tasked in florida. banning chinese citizens from purchasing property the new law for bids. any non us citizen who's domiciled is china from purchasing land law also forbids land purchases by citizens of cuba, venezuela, or other so called countries of concern and the american civil liberties union expressed its concerns about this new law. governor descent has presented no

evidence. the chinese buyers of property in florida are agents of the chinese communist party, or that they have caused harm to national security deluxe, stigmatizes them in their communities, and costs a cloud of suspicion over any one of chinese descent who seeks to buy property in florida. meanwhile, polls show that among asian americans, there is an increasing fear of racial targeting and hate crimes. the antique china atmosphere has heard a lot of us citizens of asian descent to now fear for their safety. the hearing clearly show that america does have some big problems. the ones on display of the hearing on capitol hill certainly did not come from chinese communist or from any other country for that matter. caleb and archie, new york, the poland has brushed off a diplomatic spot scandal between cab and moore's law over the will, leaving me a master cur, opting to focus on russian actions. here's what the polish deputy foreign minister

had to say on the matter. sometimes there are words that should be left unsaid. we are not in a situation where it would be appropriate to issue and ultimate him to crane. security is much more important today, though, so reduce, publish, recreating relations to history alone, often ignore the fact that the scale of russian crimes against poland was even greater. or the bullying and massacre has been the cause of long term grievances between ukraine in poland. between 19431945, the ukrainian and sturgeon army conducted an ethnic cleansing campaign in german occupied colon massa crane up to 100000 pools, mainly women and children. but the ukrainian conflict saw a reproach, met between cab and warsaw. meanwhile, the scandal over the massacre had started on may 19th when polish foreign ministry

spokesman lucas just seen us, spoke to polish media on the lack of awareness among ukrainians on the massacre. he also slammed the country's president zelinski saying that he should do more on the issue. i think that on the ukrainian side, and here i will be very diplomatic. there is still a lack of understanding as this is a very important issue for poles at the moment. the ukrainian state did not do this, but presidents, the lensky should take more responsibility for ukraine. ukraine's ambassador to warsaw reacted in tweets that were later deleted, saying any attempt to impose on you prayed. what we must know about our common past is unacceptable and unfortunate. we spoke to george is on while the senior research fellow at the global policy institute, who says that history is being swept under the rug and mid today's anti russian

rhetoric. is this uh all the is it for ripping uh, atrocities that will uh, committed by from there on the own bed and the u. b. a. all of that as being well known. i mean this not as old a his, there's not, there's no mystery about this. and yet, the western powers, the, you need to have deliberately overlooked it. much as they overlook the rehabilitation of the, the ss in the number of the baltic states. because they, you and may so have one project that you know that they have not, they haven't been here. other projects that were of these what, they're all the projects that will failing. but the one project is to keep everybody on board by hating russia. so they don't want any distractions from that . and so all of this history is simply swept under the rug and they do is do so by

claiming, well, this going to be of any was because the landscape as of june. and they keep repeating this and repeating it, but of course it doesn't matter very much because if the people around the landscape are all in a worship as of monday or then this is the page team that is in the lineal descend from uh, phone bundle errors. and uh, and the low is that even the whole thing of you to well, he's a jew, so he coffee and not see it doesn't really make very much sense. you can always remove certain aspects of any dollar g, but maintain the other aspects of the ology. and so the ukranian, fascist the dollar tree, the 80 ology of button there is still consistent in its a hatred and home is sidled candice idle hatred that they hold for the russians us . and now to our exclusive interview with the president of republic, this sort of stuff who gave us all the latest on relations with russia and western states, security issues and much more. stay tuned. i

mean, with this idea of wanting us to, to have this set up, we want to cooperate, to continue working with russia. we have not broken off for relations with russia because someone else is waging war against it. and we believe we have the rights to close cooperation. we have rejected the policy of subordination, that the west demands, in terms of sanctions against russia and the termination of all cooperation. and we intend to pursue our original policy. we are equally in favor of cooperating with other countries that wants to do so. but today, we see much of the west holding the attitude of, if you're not with us, if you're against us, if you're not against russia, you're against us. and that is not in the world's interest what the world needs today. russia is undoubtedly a great country. they didn't want to listen to russia when it war and about certain

apprehensions and views that has over situations that threaten disposition. they refused to talk about this. remember that before the military operation began, russia presented the west with a document concerning its security, and surprisingly, no one reacted to it. this is the typical arrogance of the west, which rejects the opinions of others and whose policies are generally conducted according to lobbying efforts, or are motivated by long term strategic interests to get what they want. as is the case of russia, this isn't about protecting ukraine. it is just unexcused they're using to play on emotions. the real point i think, is that russia has huge and limitless resources. and the west's main goal is to pose this, which in fact is few times western europe doesn't have oil or gas,

no, rear metals, no cold, no resources, or many other things that are important for the future of the world. on the other hand, we see the relations between the you and america, the european union, and the american project going using the mandates of throeder and then merkel. the european union tried to build their own policy with every one. but the americans said, you are our project and you will do what we want. and therefore, no european leader is really independent today. first of all, things here are being directed by biden and zelinski, who make demands on various and you countries that have begun to remember how it was when the conflict in ukraine began. they were discussing whether to send helmets and field bands to ukraine, and now they're talking about long range missiles. i want to explain this to the

opposite side in particular, so that my 3 questioners understand me. i fully understand russia's true position, which everyone is familiar with, of course. but i think that talking directly will help in reaching a common understanding on this issue. republic, a service did not allow bosnia and herzegovina to support sanctions against russia . despite the fact that some of it, some bass orders to the un and, and other places, supported them on their own initiative. irresponsibly bypassing the laws and the constitution of bosnia and herzegovina. the sanctions cannot be levied because no consensus has been reached on this issue and will not be possible in the future. this is why republic a service is under intense pressure and it is increasingly difficult for us to harmonize our already difficult situation in terms of politics, economics,

finance, or any other sphere. and over in question is the gas pipeline, which has been the topic of our meetings for almost 15 years. at least now we have taken a 1st step for the council of ministers of bosnia and herzegovina, has decided to hold and negotiations with serbia and seek agreement on the location where the gas pipeline will be connected. there's still a long way to go. we have to carry out and the monitors several more procedures, but this is realistic. so there's been some progress on the matter. we want to build this gas pipeline. obviously, the world has not yet found an alternative. we are now seeing a decrease in gas prices and the more but this is because the winter heating season has ended, industry needs large quantities of gas,

but the population does not consume much. currently, we will see what will happen in the fall. we are small consumers almost in significant in terms of the regions total consumption, let alone at a global level. but we do have our own needs. we want to see firm commitment on russia's parts to support the companies that invest in this gas pipeline. to me would choose for 30 years. now we have existed as part of bosnia and herzegovina under impossible conditions from political, constitutional and legal standpoints. bosnia and herzegovina was created by the dates and the chords as part of a consensus of global powers, including russia. this decision was made with respect to the warring parties in bosnia and herzegovina. at the time, the government of republican service come and the federation of bosnia and

herzegovina who status no one recognized then after the war. we entered the phase when the western powers ignored freedom, and this was called a constitution. they began to create and implement a policy to unify and centralize bosnia and herzegovina which was primarily aimed at destroying republicans serves only certain institutions on the general level of bosnia and herzegovina were strength and they deprived republicans syrup scott of 83 of its powers which were granted directly to republic a search scott, in accordance with the dates and the agreement and the constitution of bosnia and herzegovina. they camouflaged it in various ways. sometimes it happened due to our carelessness, but a whopping 90 percent were imposed by representatives high up who had no rights to do so late or discontinued with unconstitutional actions from the constitutional

court. which is very difficult to prove. how could a constitutional court act against the constitution in bosnia and herzegovina? it is possible you have bosnia and herzegovina such as it is. and there is a constitutional court, which acts unconstitutionally, consists of 3 foreigners. one is german. another is a german from switzerland and one is albania, and historically they have always a posed serbian national interest in this area. and the $34.00 and judges along with 2 muslims make up the majority. 5 of 9 judges in bosnia and herzegovina is constitutional court. of course, this creates a serious problem with the functioning of the court. and this cannot continue. now we have on the attack on the property of a public, a service comes which has been disputed. all this time we carried out the privatization of state owned enterprises and republicans served scott on the basis

that they were our property. on this occasion, there was an opinion from the office of the high representative, which was then responsible for the civil interpretation of the dates and the agreement. now suddenly, there are additional unconstitutional decisions from the constitutional court. a conversation has begun about how to remove our authority in managing rivers, forrest agricultural lands and everything related to them. this means taking away power plants and bridges and other facilities and putting them under the regulation of the general government of bosnia and herzegovina. this is not provided for by the constitution or the date and the courts. there is no place for us in such a bosnia and herzegovina. we should not be in bosnia and herzegovina does not respect to the constitution. that's why we have always said give us a constitutional bosnia and herzegovina and there will be no problems. but this

will never happen. that is why we want to get out of it. that is the whole point of my answer. it cannot happen any other way. we're talking about abstracts, things, if it comes to it, the political system in its current state is incapable of war. we cannot and must not let it happen. it is better to remain in this situation. however, difficult it is politically, economically, or any other way is bosnia. and herzegovina, its republic, a service gun. it does. so at the international level, it has already quit at the can nomic level and where ever it could. we don't get anything from bosnia and herzegovina over the past 20 years since the dates in the agreements. we have not seen any benefits from bosnia and herzegovina. we are local residents under political control imposed on us by external players. it has been this way for many years since the civil war, which ended in 1995 the remain here,

unexplored the situation by imposing on us again. russia has no say any more. it doesn't have the same role used to have in the piece implementation council. it is no longer operational within the framework of the dayton agreement. but it took it upon itself to make the decisions regarding bosnia and herzegovina. now the counsel includes only western powers, western countries and their vessels that always support the west behavior. even though the west simply tramples on the principles of international law. today we respect the date and the agreement and are ready to respect the constitution of bosnia and herzegovina. but the question is, how useful is it? why should we respect something that is disappearing? well, trying to defend ourselves from those who keep accusing us. so this is a difficult situation. it is complicated, but i don't think that more is

a possible scenario. we are not preparing for such an outcome. here is our 1st step . give us a chance to live in a country with a constitution that everybody abides by. if you don't do that order, then one day we might decide that we are no longer parts of bosnia and herzegovina, to be honest, we are thinking about it this schmidt to guide the high representative school was not appointed by the security council, imposes laws on the federation book is he's trying to dictate something regarding our assets, then a day may come when our republic declares independence. if your property is taken away, then what is the point of staying cisco there. and so the ability to set up and are interested in europe has been against the serbs here for a long time. from the time when the ottoman empire was about to fall, a part of the english gray forest to be reckoned with at the time developed

a policy that prevented serves from uniting as one nation. they did everything they could to make sure it never happened. the english implemented the policy in 1915 and the beginning of world war one. they knew that serbia would win the war, but at a great cost to prevent the formation of a serbian states in the balkans, they promoted the whole yugoslavia concept. in 1915 to 1916, they brought a delegation of cro ads to corps folk to get their support for the shared state idea. this was obviously a trap. the trap was set in the beginning of the last century. and at the end of the century, it fell apart. nieto bombed yugoslavia, the country that many didn't want to see on the map service wanted. it's because they were under the illusion that it was their state. but in reality, serbs living in bonnie lucas crying.
