9:06 am
t and stable. and also let me think 2 volunteers of a physician support and they made it were to campaign. and together with them we showed the actual a dobro how a wife and democracy works with 90 percent. so now an amazing turned out to, to elections and also fantastic results for people up to, to coming back to your question. say, i think this is the 16th comes a q to last of opposition liter against president that door. and previously it was, the catch is own people, the deep state, the l. e. and then space, i mean, he believes everyone else except himself for his last as a gift for them that dawn. and again the, he continued on this, finding excuses for his loss. and his lecture on the friday, you never are able to come back for a video because they never understand why the number of course prison that on was elected. not only as president, know the people who voted for him,
9:07 am
but also for the whole country. like i said, the reshowing people's lives in the office, the rest and the guy present the drivers, the charge for people to be able to enjoy the how the enjoyed the, the freedom of democracy associates need. i mean, i remember i listen to or the speech at 1 am last night and some 350000 people just in the presidential election. i mean, the presidential partners, bass, impressive, and it's so, but i don't want to talk about nobody news is we all waiting now to get to the wheel when pop in the 1st round. this will sit on a line and with his 5.2 percent. sure. not a lot, but that was a tongue slip he could've made a deal with add on is a, is that true? and do you think that his votes is the insight? and if i go to him or do you think color start on the last some of his civil.
9:08 am
ready first hold prison, that on his never made a deal and he said he wouldn't make steal on negotiations on, on, on the voltage. but he said that within the 2 piece a political stance. and he made it very clear and to be present as long as between 7 medium to 2500000 more votes from the opposition. the waters came from from ever seen on the one supporters from actually opposition support as well. maybe for both as for a position lead into post on, but then he change of his language to as in a whole big kenzie language. people who actually turned into the boards of harper's and so from multiple sites present, that one gets most of the west, south north and east and west north and south from all sort of people you to see if you could exit good for that was i again i have the, uh, the speech that i've built into law side add on for the until the funds to people's,
9:09 am
the southeast which we haven't done so well in the 1st round for this, for out this especially earthquakes and these are a little votes from there as well, so when we're looking for to, to the kids and sort of policies, is it going to be sort of 5? is this the next 5 is going to be the same sort of thing that we've seen in the last 20 years or are we looking at change reform? is it going to be something different people, especially in the article effect, as they show that they the believe the present, that one is the person who can actually review of all this. he has to deliver it in last, when use the some of the most significant project of discussion. that's why do you have the confidence kitchen do it again? and like i said, present in that on the since we came in charge of the charge, we have been the largest country in the aggregate of the g d,
9:10 am
p of to india and china to know that as of now, dawn can actually take us to the number one position and they have to believe it for him in the prosperity and the economy. and especially the number one in our agenda is the rebuilding right. another thing that you mentioned that holland is the belief in the people. i'm going to go back to that that, that the speech that i was this morning early this morning and it's, it shows a furnace. and when you run on policy, i didn't say, look, i promised this, this and this. in fact, he just believed that his people are, i'm pretty about said, i know you're going to believe in me. i think that's the way the difference between actually wanted to make it fundamental was funded by the towels to get funded. many different to say western countries here it seems, i mean they cool him or the slides with his chief basically. i mean that, but it's
9:11 am
a whole is of a not easy was a describe, but they said it is a look, a family leave the they not mx records haven't received. do they come in the 2 people less than what it was actually misleading us if, if we just did not see the fact that he is elected because he did a verse, i mean in the last 5 years we've the college funds to make the rush are you creating more impacted us and to hold the region, the rock into the energy prices. but despite all of these, we never caught on already in the share on investments. we delivered the most important project. so in the history of georgia, 1st time me to call them a natural gas from our own deserves. we have the 1st nuclear power plant. we had the largest solar and hydro electric power plants on integrated the last 6 months. this is why people voting for them, of course they like him because the honest man in the he's been in, in, in politics for sales, people know his track record. but also people vote for him. i look forward to because he has an amazing team in the party. he delivers the projects in the he's
9:12 am
not only is delivering locally, but also the green deal. i mean, probably the largest achievement offered last year in diplomacy. it is degree and the oldest president are done was playing a key role to abrupt a deal. the books were you playing on russia on the table and it actually it, it saves the world from the fruit to get the crisis from most definitely africa, at least as, as to that, that alone, that grand did a good to you. but that's another story. holland, you know, let's just sort of wrap things up. i don't want to take too much of your time. i'd really appreciate your help, but how just to see itself in the next 5 years when it comes to our policy. now, we know that it's a mixed feelings with the usa. we know that mixed feelings with the middle east. we know that as a job 0, find the lisa the know that we, that you a good friends with russia as well, but the next 5 is how do you see the things developing? we have, we have no relationship with the us as well as we have other regional powers in,
9:13 am
in, around to t. and we know that this is the experience of dealing with the experience that we have to keep plays a key role bringing the different parts of the different groups on the tables, to actually create sex tests for the overdue diplomacy. and that's what we are going to take more role in the region. then we have a track record of actually achieving it with our neighbors algebra. john rush, f, us, europe. and i think now it is going to present that on. we will take an important role actually to solving the issues, regional and global issues in the world. you're right at the present. how do i have a very good at those a piece, the most hope that you can bring puts in and is that landscape so available? that will be very because he that is on the, on his i friends with both of them. all in all, my son has a lot of us, a lot of a lot of pleasure for me to interview here today. thank you so much for joining me
9:14 am
. thank you. we really appreciate your time. i take thank you much. well, there you go. holland on member of the party, central decision making board, my steam gas. very good to interview him. i like i said, there's a lot of business as usual. i was the back of it here. this comes out to this stumble and everyone's going all about the businesses that are the one did promise to of course, was on the economy as well. and how he does that is with address. so anyway, that's all for me now for me here in it's time or i'm back to you don't all right, archie is more on how mommy with a very important guess to member of the a k party central decision making board. how room, armand, thanks a lot for that. very interesting discussion. you know, and other news, the you back to o. s. c e. observers have now refused to recognize the election saying the campaign lacked a fair and level playing field. you as president joe biden, and european leaders earlier rushed to the to congratulate her to one on his re
9:15 am
election. and what seems to contradict their treatment of the newly elected turkish leader in previous comments. but to get more details on this, we're going to across, live, to our team contributor rachel marston. rachel, can you tell us more about the differing rhetoric between uh, i mean, being used by western leaders in the media. yeah, it's really easy to explain. have you ever been in a situation where you have a friend who breaks up with their partner and comes to you complaining about them so you say, yeah, good riddance. they were jerk anyway and agree that they can do way better than that person. then suddenly they get back together with the same person and it's really awkward because you trash talk them so badly and you kind of hope that no one remembers. well, that's kind of the same situation that the collective west is in right now with turkish president ratio of everyone getting re elected over the weekend. check this
9:16 am
out, us president joe biden tweeted, quote, i look forward to continuing to work together as nato allies on bilateral issues and shared global challenges, but just over 3 years ago, in december 2019, when bottom is running for the presidency against incumbent president. donald trump, who had a really good relationship with everyone by told a bunch of new york times editors that the us should quote, make it clear that we support opposition leadership so they can quote, take on and the feet arrow to one, not by a crew, but by the electoral process, by the and also said that quote, i've spent a lot of time with him, meaning president air to one of turkey. he's an autocrat. so now suddenly the white house is switzerland, not picking sides. biden said earlier in the electro process and turkey that he just told me that whomever wins does it unambiguously. so is it any wonder that earlier in the presidential campaign,
9:17 am
early one had been accusing the opposition and washington of co moving together against him? might them gave the instruction saying we have to topple, are the one i know this, all my people know this to more of the balance will give by then announce as well, it's no wonder where he got that idea from. it's not like bite and had been using aloud about it has an actual policy objective. and if anyone was looking for a 2nd source, other than finding himself trucks, former national intelligence director, richard for now just a sensitively accused biden of 4 and meddling and turkey. instructing jeff like to meet with the opposition candidate in the middle of the election was a terrible mistake. the us must strongly advocate for its policies, but must stay away from picking size and elections are due on. knows what you do. this will not benefit us interest, so you're playing leaders are also now joining this congratulatory choir,
9:18 am
but in the run up to the vote, brussels was dangling the notions of a common market with the e u. n. visa liberalization for turkey in the you, in front of the circus voters like it was sometime in engagement ring, even though they seem more interested in just ringing and car. a lot of the whole thing, you know, with migrants from africa are hosting nato basis for their never ending wars in africa. and them at least, or negotiating the black sea grandiose between russia and ukraine. so their point, happy to just keep using turkey early one's opponent seem to have brought into this idea though, that they could become members of the using the use phrase as well. or one was giving brussels some serious side. i even got into a skirmish with french president emanuel and i called earlier this year to using my products, leading africa in countries. now my coal always seems to be frustrated that early one doesn't just fall in line with you, interest resisting sweden's nato membership bid. for example,
9:19 am
citing matters of turkish national security and a significant chunk of the western press was also explicitly calling in the months before the selection for or the wind to be dropped, kicked from power, and through western meddling if need be. now none of this seems to have escaped otherwise attach it to the in city of psychological operations carried out in the international media about us on the 9th of may, the 14th we, through all this away with the will when infested in the ballad box, we have shown the dictatorship rhetoric is pure nonsense. think of it this way will dictate to hold a 2nd round, the dictates of finishes his job in the 1st round. and besides, he can finish it with 90 percent of votes. there are many examples of this in the world where long and to win the heart of our nation know the dictatorship. so just days ago, western leaders were already treating early on life the dumped acts. and now that
9:20 am
he's back on the scene, they're acting like he either didn't notice their remarks or doesn't remember their bad know thing. well, good luck with that. all right. are to contribute original marston, thanks for bringing us. those details and other news rushes foreign minister has landed in africa, making his 1st stop on a diplomatic tour of the continent. circ a lab or off touch down earlier in kenya. and together with canyon leaders, he discussed a number of geo political and economic issues including the emerging multi polar world order. wherever i've also noted the need to reform the un security council to ensure wider representation. and i'll take a look so, you know, best move that's pretty good, quite reasonably presents its intentions to become a real full fledged center of the emerging multi polar world door to the reform of the un security council should be a step in this direction. the problem of the security council,
9:21 am
as we have said more than once, is the excessive prof. presentation of western states. out of the 15 current members, 6 represent the united states and its allies. of course, it is necessary to eliminate this injustice by admitting a representative of asia late in america, an advocate to the security council. this is the only way to ensure a presentation in this main you and body. already, 4th visit of this kind by sort of gala or off to the african continent over the past year or so, since the beginning of the russian, the special military operations in ukraine. and one of the main reasons for that is not only political, but economic because africa finds itself as one of the most affected by this contain of western sanctions against russia, which were introduced with no regard for the 3rd players. many of the african nations that have absolutely nothing to do with the disagreements between russia and the west,
9:22 am
bear the brunt of the shortage in width and fertilizers and many other experts. commodities that came as a consequence of western sanctions against russia. one of the mechanisms suggested by can you, is the use of national currency canyon currency in payments for the exports of oil and possibly other commodities. russia looks favorably onto that. the trade potential between russia and kenya is still not fully realized. as the tray turnover growth russia will be looking more attentively into diversifying its trade into african currencies. not only came in, but any uh, but other currencies as well. um, she said that these topic in particular, will be at the center off his visit to south africa later on this week, when the representatives of the bricks, countries will be discussing, specifically the mechanisms of protecting and circumventing western sanctions. you know, there is an interesting coincidence of that piece visit comes on the heels of
9:23 am
a similar tour by the ukranian for administered mutual, clear buckle was visiting a number of african countries trying to persuade them to a band and then neutrality and joint western sanctions against russia something that the, that it was particularly eager to do and for us very obviously cannot make reasons to bill for them even more especially now because many african countries are suffering from best types of very cv your droughts. for example, kenya, it has uh, more than 4000000 people in the state of acute within security. and this is where the boundaries and the obstacles that are created on the way of russian experts hurt people the most. now what's also interesting is that the number of african leaders have come up with our own these initiatives for the ukranian countries. but unfortunately, those initiatives for now are being met with skepticism or outright refusal by the
9:24 am
west. perhaps washington and london cannot accept anything other than zalinski, so called these formulas. this formula means the withdrawal of russian troops from all territories, crimea don't boss and others, then a tribunal, reparations. and only after that, ukraine would agreed to sign a peace treaty several years. it goes to alaska, said that if any of the ukrainian citizens identified themselves as russian, then get back to russia, given the statements of the new list. but the lack after the return of this territories, they will exterminate everything russian there, including russian citizens. the wes commitment to this barbaric formula of the landscape means they are ready to support genocide. now you just or this word genocide, then this is something that both russia and ukraine, i accuse each other, all the african continent is obviously no stranger to that phenomenon either. but that also means that it has a valuable experience, practical perspective on how to bring warring parties to the negotiating table and
9:25 am
some sort of reconciliation provided that there is interest on, on all sides. and now we go to india, where a 2nd generation navigation satellite has blasted off from the saw teach. the dot won space center on the bay of band gall. another of new daily 2nd generation satellites is set to be launched this july. according to the chairman of the indian space research organization, they intend to demonstrate systems end to end capabilities such as safely landing and moving about the moon and chemical analysis of the lunar surface during its in situation trials. or meanwhile, the program aims to develop and show new technologies required for interplanetary mission to use the possible boot stood a video circulating online of us. senator lindsey graham's recent meeting with president vladimir zalinski of ukraine is raising questions about
9:26 am
a key as benefactors and whether or not the footage was actually edited or not. let's take a listen to what was actually released for years now. yes, and we will be in the russians are the best right hand side. so you had mentioned to savanski that ukraine has adopted the american mantra, leave free or died. it has been a good investment by the united states to help liberate your grain from russian war criminals. now you are free. last correspondence in the encounter and we will be, graham replied, and the russians are dying. the last give them added. yes, but they came to our territory. we're not fighting on their territory. statement prompted a flurry of outraged and the russian foreign ministry was quick to respond is an attempt to justify one's self esteem to failure. the nazi philosophy of hatred for the russians is what really unites the key of regime and its american patrons. this
9:27 am
whole story with cowardly excuses and ridiculous attempts to shield lindsey graham is another blow to the already faded reputation of reuters, the bbc. we'd have to get both washington n t f out of the situation they created. this is not journalism, but the work of p. r. agencies by the order of the collective west, given everything they said, the mission is impossible. we must acquit senator graham. but at the same time, not to smear the head of this landscape regime, it's propaganda. so let's get apparently said now your free and silver we. and then that's when lindsay graham supposedly said, and the russians are dying and so on and so forth. so they claim that this is not actually how it happened, in which case then vladimir is the landscape through his friend on the bus. you would argue because they are the ones that released that again, this is a key reminder. this is not a rush or russian channel that released this clip. this was the press office of vladimir zalinski, and then lindsey graham said, all well, as usual,
9:28 am
the rush of propaganda machine is hard at work dismissing his words, he did say that and the russians are dying. and even if we were to say that this was a bad edit on behalf of the landscape of press office, the way he says and russians are dying is not in a, in a bad way to say he says that basically he's happy about it. so the sentiment is that it's great and this option sold was how may that he said, and russians are dying, like he's happy about it. even if we give him the benefits of the doctor and say that his quote was in some way, i suppose, misinterpreted smiling while using the words as do you just said killing? i'm best money we could have spend to ever spend. it's not exactly pump diplomacy i'm he has previous in that regard to the exactly, and again, we've seen people americans as well being bewildered by the statements online. we're seeing so many comments or outrage. we wouldn't be as surprised to maybe if
9:29 am
this wasn't the 1st time, this is why russia is inclined to believe that this wasn't and that did that. this is in fact how it happened because we've seen statements like leaves and wars from high level officials before. here just some examples, the only way the sense is for somebody in russia to take this guy out. you wouldn't be doing your country good service and the world a great service. i don't agree that we can get him and i think he knows that you can ask essentially money in iran. what happens when we decide somebody the threat to the us? so of course, based on that track record, it's not hard to imagine an american high level official being the happy that russians are dying or even encourage and russians being killed. perhaps it's just worth recalling. well, the us, when i little of say, stands to gain from this conflict to the us military, industrial complex is making a lot of money and they have a lot to gain from this. again, they're also selling. we know that the united states has been selling more gas and
9:30 am
at higher prices, so they're making money from that as well as of course, like they love the past, they're on something that we keep hearing from them. time and time again, we've invested and i mean, invested $66000000.00 in ukraine this year. so for this investment, i think it's well worth it. how? like the structural path we're on here as long as the way up ukraine with the weapons, they need an economic support. they will fight to the last person, the united states, a jew crane and her people so that we can cite russia over there. and we don't have to fight russia here. strange once again that this is the rhetoric that us officials are selling to their people because of russia is not a threat to them, but they keep selling it like that time and time again. and so regardless of whether this was an adage or not, in this particular case, we have seen before from us the official saying.
