anytime aids happened to me too, so, so with the motor, without those, and both of their relationships and i was aware that the data of friendship was a really a human, a csc of friendship. besides that, for sure. also for the 40 degrees and they found that many things seemed we should, they were agreeing, it may be something good and we should, they will not the on the percent that going by the i think that the, the human aspect so was, are the most important in the other nations, even before the 46 the the city of done that cause once again come under ukrainian. shelling according to reports, keeps forces sheldon area near a railway station killing a 20 year old woman and injuring her 2 year old childs information. another casualties has not yet been released. the western russian region of belgrade has also seen at least 12 artillery shoals fired by ukrainian horses this weekend.

according to the home. there are residential building was one of those hit in the town or should backing up near the border, leaving the structure in flames and shattering into windows. currently, over 60000 people are being evacuated to centers across the area are to shave boats, reports from one of the refugee shelters. from here in belgrade, one of the assistance points for the displace people who have come from the surrounding villages that were recently attacked by ukrainian artillery and incursions by infiltration groups. as you can see, there are literally hundreds of people, thousands of salt refuge here in belgrade. it's a huge humanitarian operation. people are getting psychological health, food, and the absolutely necessities for human existence that it's only what something like this occurs and you see the scale of the impact of these attacks by the ukrainian ministry on water essentially civilian targets. we've spoken to the

mirror and he's outlined the size and the scale of the assistance that people are getting on. also, i'm, although there were 3 large centers for the initial placement to residents from should be can. during the 1st day alone, we received accommodated and provided with food and medicine around 3 and a half 1000 people. however, many of them had obviously left the residential area without packing their personal belongings. so they were also in need of clothes and some hygiene essentials for that. for similar distribution points have been set up in the city, which you mandatory and aid supplied from all over the country. on behalf of the governor, we had been preparing in advance for various emergency scenarios. so we were able to deploy everything very quickly. while i'm here at the, at belgrade sports center, one of several that is currently housing displaced people as from the ship, back in a region, a region recently attacked by ukraine. we've seen an immense effort here

to provide care and assistance to a huge range of people from very elderly, sick to young babies, children, pregnant women, an entire families. there's about 200 people here in the center. some people have decided that they will not return to shit back, you know, and are getting re house in other regions in areas. this is a cynical assault on civilians targeted that civilians on this led to huge displacement of 10000 people. at least we know here in the belgrade region, i'm joined by the voice mer of belgrade region, who's very kindly agreed to talk to us about the situation in the city right now. they've received a lot of displaced people from, from the surrounding regions which have separate attacks. there's a 200 people in this center alone. the alexander, thanks very much for talking to us. how many people altogether has belgrade received us displays people? what's the total of the prostate need you to its over the past week about 10

thousands of also a concert went from cubic you know, has the boss with temporary accommodation facilities. this indeed, a unique situation in belgrade with a large role into movement and which medical students, including foreign ones, are actively participating scripts. so we're here at the university of belgrade, where the students, local doctors and doctors from the region have come to assist the people who have been displaced from should back in on the surrounding villages. it's an incredible effort their mobile clinics, and it must be said that the work of the students here who are even spending their own money, their own time to come and help their fellow citizens and the people that they've never met before. it's really a remarkable thing to witness. the situation is horrible. it's through our students are very kind and they always like here to help people and it's not true or somebody say that we are evil or lazy. those we have a shower,

refrigerator, t, v, iron, kettle, everything that's really kind of the food is great. i think there is no panic here . everything has been organized very well in such a short space of time volunteers bring food to the rooms of the girls. the students collect money for a to they ask what people need and then buy the products. there's also still a bright side to the story if you like. when facilities like these mobile units are brought into play. all the medical care is being met and new to these are small vendors that people have been evacuated here are clearly in need of help. long conversations and consolation so many doctors are here working. also a psycho therapist. it's about the human side of this conflict showing is true that people want peace. they want to see people left in peace and truly that's what we should be talking about. but unfortunately in the western media piece is not even

mentioned anymore. i suppose it's the mosque slips now, as we see, towns like sheet back, you know, in belgrade b indiscriminately attacked with nato supplied weapons, specifically targeting civilians. the same behavior that has been denied by ukrainian military and their nato, a sponsors for 10 years and, and don't ask in, in the east of ukraine. tucker cross, it has received a cease and desist letter from his former employer fox news and responds to his new show on twitter. the current battle, as in response to the broadcasters claims that carlson's content is exclusively their property until the end of december 2024. meanwhile, the former host stands firmly on his claims that such restrictions are in direct violation of his freedom of speech. but the 1st 2 episodes of tucker halls and new show on twitter have drawn a combined total of $169000000.00 views. and following is outstanding from fox news

in april. and recent years, attempt silencing descending opinions have intensified in the west with the only acceptable public narrative on the ukraine conflict, remaining anti russian. even mainstream media reports are being sanitized, if it acceptable public discourse are to use whom i'm a chart. bull explores the latest example of partisan journalism or the new zealand national radio broadcasts or r n z is currently in bank and on emission to investigate how certain stories about the quaint conflict were allegedly manipulated to align with the pro russian viewpoint. the story has been corrected, reading and usually what is concerned and takes these matter extremely seriously. we are investigating, i'd have taking appropriate action. those concerns were raised after at least 15 articles published by the broadcast ser, seems to have been modified on the website. so even corporate language favoring

most goes position. now here is one of the latest examples of these articles before and after the edits. the original articles were driven by a much more wester note, and whereas the edited version currently being investigated, out of things like the word cool to describe the 2014 made in revolution, as well as references to russian concerns about ukrainian new and as the groups. the individual in question is being investigated and has been placed on leave while the broadcaster examines the matter and investigation is on our way to the alleged conduct of one employee. the employee has been placed on leave while we look into these matters. we have corrected the stories and added an explanatory note to each article. we are teaching other articles to check whether there are further problems that hunts for pro russian narratives in the west is nothing new, but he has which it's big at the moment, as all you need now is to vocalize opposing views around the ukraine. conflict is

senior a you official has or is your members days to spend more money to address what they perceive as russian propaganda. in many countries, the narrative, the crushes, not the grocer, but the victim is on the rice. we underestimate the influence of russian propaganda . indeed, preventing people from considering alternative perspectives is incur is, let's also not forget the entire etc of the you, as well as canada, hasn't bend artsy in hopes of silence in most of those words. that's been followed by social media or restricted access to our t is content and microsoft and apple removing it from their app, stores binding r, t or other russian media oppose in your narrative is completely democratic. it appears acceptable to adopt in narrow and biased view. this is. 8 the notion of balance, we were able to impose the restrictive measures on the kremlin propaganda machinery

and effectively banned from updating without a short study. we said and due to be due to band them for them. what if anything was ended up being used on doing that? we are not attacking the freedom of expression that just affected the freedom of expression. and when it comes to pro ukrainian now to, well, that's more, that's fine. there's no such word as propaganda for western media coverage. but we must also mention a landmark report published by researchers arrows fairly, as university of adelaide, exposing quite a bit amount of ukrainian bought a towns on twitter pushing their agenda. and of course it was through media has remained completely silent about the findings of that paper. as they refused to show ukraine a negative light, so apparently freedom of speech is only acceptable when others we,

we do your version of events assist someone there to oppose it. the accuse of spreading propaganda. it really begs the question of why we have them of expression and the democratic principles they proclaimed abruptly lose their meaning in the face of opposing belief. the former president donald trump, has insisted that you should not buy oil from venezuela, even suggesting taking it by force instead or about with buying oil for venezuela. when i left that as well, it was ready to collapse. we would have take it over, we would have got doing that. well, it would have been right next door. but now we're buying oil from venezuela, so we're making a dictator very rich. can you believe this? nobody could believe it. back in 2019, venezuela was overwhelmed by protests with the speaker of the parliament one grayed out declaring himself in term president of the country. his candidacy was supported

by then president trump who claim that president maderos position was illegitimate and venezuela's were demanding freedom. and the rule of law, but the u. s. appeared to be more focused on the countries oil resources than defending alleged democratic freedoms. the u. s. has been accused of seizing oil from countries where it conducts military operations of warmer or rocky president. so that $150000000000.00 worth of oil money had been stolen from the middle eastern countries since the last and faded $2.00 decades ago. syrian officials claimed boss august that up to 80 percent of the countries oil production was being plundered on a daily basis. trump has openly said multiple times that the us has been taking oil from syria. but we are leaving soldiers to secure the us. now we may have to fight for the oil. it's okay, but we keep in the oil. remember that i've always said that keep the oil. we want

to keep the oil $45000000.00 a month. the, we're keeping the oil, we have the oil, the oil is secure. we left tips behind only for the oil. we did leave. so just because we're keeping the oil and we secure the oil other than that, there's no reason for it in our opinion, and we've secured the oil and therefore a small number of us troops will remain in the area where they have the oil. a martin j as there as him and grab b dot or news outlook. so as the usaa is now after is next target. so reality of us from policy, you know enough to look back to the eighty's, even the seventy's. and if you look at just about every single intervention americans, don't you know where you mention syria, iraq, libya, most americans, presidents, so that way they may not be quite so bad. it is. i'm clumsy. when talking about oil, i don't think we should, we should make the mistake that, that is under the republicans. i think little presents look at,

look around the world and see where they can send troops and creates these security situations whereby they americans present themselves a saving the situation. and part of the deal is to cross go for the energy countries. you would just, there was a record report about and kind of num, uganda is now a real if you will present with mrs. a. right now, you must be really worried that you're sitting on 12 trillion dollars worth of gold . and the americans are now starting to make the river in north sea, very aggressive comments. the relations between on coronado jobby are continuing to improve as the weights president visited his turkish counterparts and praise their strengthening ties. we discussed ways to further strengthen economic cooperation and the strategic partnership between the 2 nations and ways to promote regional stability towards a prosperous future for all to the high level media is the 1st and nearly

a decade and it comes on the heels of president air the ones, recent re election, both leaders express hope for future deepening of ties, the talks admin and visual stamped to the signing of a comprehensive economic partnership agreement this year, which also marked the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the 2 nations. warming relations between non current and abu dhabi are yet another example of approach mints or across the middle east. there was serious reason returned to the airbag and saudi arabia under ron. i've also renew ties. after decades of hostilities, we spoke earlier to an international relations specialist who says the trend may worry certain western players the most probably the western countries, especially united states of america, is not happy. that original countries are not competing that corporate corporate. of course, they're not going to allow us to stay above the, the, the,

the processes of marketing them. but most probably days, really, you know, that they have some kind of finger that they can put in, in a, in a, in a sealed such as need be a, such as the, the for to, is me, the, to the and then they can, you know, create the kind of new version of, but also have power by to getting close by, you know, supporting some countries against other it could be in, in, in syria. it could be in libya, it could be in human, you know, it, it could be able to answer that. it says almost evidence that wisdom countries are not totally controlled ingredient. they are not the time learning. and the policies of the regional powers, some of the leg by lead to the relations in the me that this or not defined or directed by the west or by the united states of america. so this is the new course of action in the region. a n t o t t,

and the united sort of companies are likely to corporate, more in the future. ponder, as has opened an embassy in china months after suffering relations with taiwan in favor of ties with beijing. the hunter and foreign minister and his chinese counterpart took part in the inaugural ration of the embassy on sunday morning as just days earlier. a 100 and president began her 1st 60 visits since re establishing diplomatic relations between the nations in march, ponderous cut, diplomatic ties with taiwan and recognize the island as part of china. the switch brought the number of countries that officially recognized ty, one down, the 1300 and president also met with the president of the bricks, new development bank, and shanghai. according to an official statement, the country also filed an application to join the institution. the main task of the bank is to finance infrastructure and sustainable development projects and brooks

and developing countries. asia, political risk analysts, ross find gold, believes the resume 100 as it has other nations that are growing closer to china. a slightly more significant for china than $45.00 won china, a presence in any additional country in central america, obviously for as part of the united states. so that's going to be a concern to united states policy makers to present some business opportunities for chinese companies. typically, and i think we'll see this in the coming hours or days, they'll be some announcements about infrastructure deals with true a by china, and that's gonna result in contracts for chinese companies. so probably be a lot of warning. so say it's bad for you on doors, just like united states, warns applicant countries or other countries in the developing world about having to closer relationships with china. and another kind of battle ground for that in

recent years has been in the pacific ocean. the pacific island countries for the solomon islands in the news a lot to this very reason. and that's all for now. we're here to check out our t dot com for all the latest breaking news and updates. we'll see you right back here at the top of the hour, the hello and welcome to cross stuff. we're all things are considered on peter labelle . there are rules. then there are rules. this is how some nato countries approaching grains membership in the alliance will the us like military alliance attempt to invite kids into the club, to some kind of back door at the upcoming summit in building this

the discuss this issue and more enjoyed by my guest. martin j and merrill cash. he's an award winning journalist and commentator in budapest week ross to george said, meanwhile he's a pod cast, right? the guy goal which can be found on youtube and the locals. alright gentlemen, cross that rules and effect. that means you can jump anytime you want, and i always appreciate it. i will start out with george in budapest. we'll be upcoming a nato summit in, in bill us. and there's a flurry of reports about you know, what to do for ukraine, because in 2018 there was a promise. the one day will happen. well, that seems like a distant memory, considering what's happened, particularly over the last 16 months. and we have to always be cautious as a well need to buy it. so rules does not allow members to join if they have

territorial disputes. well, i think you ukraine is in kind of category right now, george. but it's something you and i've talked about for a very long time, is that the rules don't mean much to this lines. they'll break their own rules and it sits their own purposes. george. yeah, you're absolutely right. the, the, they will break their own rules. the problem that they have is the voice by the room, the top. i mean simmons is saying to them, they don't need no stinking nato membership, you know, and 5 is fine by which time ukraine will have been completely defeated by russia. i need major membership. now i need nato to be fighting on my side now and made them doesn't quite know what to do with this argument. so they're coming up with all these so convoluted ideas. or maybe we can uh, go through have some bilateral agreements that may be fun. so poland can guarantee ukraine. but what's the advantage of france to guarantee you

know, security, but ukraine, that means phones will be just on the hook to fight on behalf of the ukraine. well, george, what should we do? have the precedents, you know, the, the, the u. k and friends made security data entry. is the poll. when did tonight, what is it? i didn't know the balls. i know we have um on this for cause moose in the foam and nato secretary general. well, now says as a advisor to the ukraine government, he says, well, maybe we can create something called the coalition of the willing. so problem, and then the bolt explained, you know, they go in and fight on the ukraine's behalf. and of course, what happens then is that if, in the sense that fighting 8 in ukraine, russia targets poland and the voltage states them, they will scream, article 5, optical 5 were under a 3rd major. you know, one for all i know for one major most ends of the war. well, you know, the resolution and things of the world are the stupidest, cuz we don't realize what, what he's proposing. so essentially they think that they can sneak ukraine through

the back door, that there isn't the formal invitation, but in effect, major was still managed to get into this war on your grades. they hop. well, we have to all remember rest. missing the former head of nato, you have to propose something to get that fat paycheck that he's getting from the ukraine, which the americans are subsidizing. ok. martin, the, the, they're trying to square a circle right here. again, you know, they have their rules, but you know, there were some kind of expeditionary force from poland. well, that's a nato country, but as far as russia is concerned, i mean, and there's one thing that i think is very important that is almost never ever mentioned in the discourse, is that, you know, we always hear about article 5, but there is an article one of business need to treaties and basically, and i'm just going to use common parlance here, don't start big doors. okay. and this is essentially, it's some are proposing again to break their own rules, which, you know,

i wouldn't be surprised when they do because they do it all the time or. yeah, but what is the price for breaking those rules? i mean, you have something now, which is i would say completely unprecedented on a much very much a tony point now in ukraine. more we, what we're seeing now is a group of countries in this, in europe come that recently and regressed goal diagnosis on the table to say we need know to membership you claim, let's not talk about it and months or whenever less actually talk about it as a reality that could happen right now because they see the any way for the, for any development, positive on the west side for any progress they see. so check the to boo subjects, best talked about. so this was never talked about the, to the subject. all ukraine shortage of soldiers and this is really in my view, what's central to this whole and they to debate, you know, so let's keep things on and on about minutes, equipment. they wouldn't never touch the subject of the numbers of soldiers that

the needs. now, you know, we're, some of us colonels, i'll be interviewed on an inch that whoever was informed because of getting the information on the ground rules. and from the pentagon, they're saying that the savanski hasn't lost understanding. so does that thing as last, plus the 250000 then talking about press gains, rounding up men over the age of 48 years old, who go to 3 out lifestyle on the, on the battlefront. so the real issue is men soldiers on the ground. we saw reports recently in the u. k of 50 s s o, which is already operating in that you can, that's quite a high number of the special forces to operate. so i'm behind enemy lines and i say, what are we seeing in native now is a double bout emission from nate. so and from this group of more gun, her members, one, what nature was done, what west police has done in the last 15 months is nowhere near enough. they really haven't received anything and they've underestimated every single 100 and underestimate about of money. the number of bits, the monthly amount of kids,

and they've underestimate as a result of russians now and, and to the 2nd point really is the, um, let me talk about military kit and searches, you know, the estimation, i think is so under estimated the we could be looking at now, i'm tripling or quadrupling the actual ministry support. so these countries are saying they're talking about the possibility of going into ukraine, some of the soldiers into crime, but the major mondays with them with a month. it's simply from their own governments, and the russians will just simply accept, obviously, not that drum, this is not nature is no, the west flies or just jumping. right. these are not nato troops of the. this is just the business which really upset because george, i mean, this is the kind of big beside is the number one of the sudden, miraculously you, um, the mic, nato accepts, you know, you propane into the alliance, the rule that would determine the russians know why what did called, in what way,

and then this kind of this, you know, wave, the magic wand in say the 12 components are part of nature, but these troops are not part of neutral, but they're always citizen. i mean, this is kind of the that this is a circle jerk here, george. uh, that's right. and, and the thing is that they are also convinced that russia is afraid of made. so it was, i think we'll look at, let's see, is sneak in poland, and the voltage states and whoever wants to join this coalition of learning and russell say, hey, we don't want to hit boland because if we go on bones, going to scream all the go 5, then more it will with nato, and we are afraid of nato, because nato is much bigger than much stronger than we are. and, you know, we're not ready to go. nuclear and nato, however is ready to go in euclid. so that is, that's the argument that we can essentially bring in additional uh, manpower and rusher will simply not there to hit this ramp and we'll just simply

slink away in the face. that's the argument. but of course, you know, why should russia except this, i mean, and, you know, once, once you're in and you'll fighting a deal, grades be hop in ukraine, russia will hit you and will extend the war. i mean, you know, that was what's a fed target? well, publish and basis, bullish, logistics, the supply lines, everything will be if the game and, you know, then it will be up to later what the are usually better to escalate. been using their argument is that, you know, this is a bi lateral, this is a by law. so much you can say, well, we're going to buy laterally bombs. you get the argument tables in um it's a part of the jump it because they're making a huge assumption which is the boots and went through that. and. and the reason why is because the track record on pollution side has been very much about the escalation. you've never arisen to the bank is always but down because he knows

what implications of the terrific dream discuss. that means we possibly, i mean is it i can hardly believe what i'm saying. oh, we actually possibly looking at the early stages of a nuclear war. i mean, this is where this whole heading, you know, age. so when you start talking about, could we even imagine the 3 of us a few months ago, talking about troops on the ground in ukraine. you know, when i was talking about british and american soldiers and it had been inevitably arriving the, was recently about lower numbers and probably cover. so this is being said, i think is, makes a lot of sense. and we did have totally flows. is all this waiting and forces in the you can bet your bottom dollar the british us. so yes, numbers would, would rock it would go, right. so because a british of probably being the most gun hope of old western nations, even more than america in terms of what we're actually doing on the ground and lead to so you know, we, we are getting into a very, very dangerous situation of escalation where we assume the person will not escalate if we escalate, but i don't think we can we, can,

we can bank on that. i think now the analogy of is turning now to, you know, there are many american mainstream journalists now who are actually being, it's admit, that the russia is stuck now to is no longer relevant if it ever was, you know, and the ukraine is taking huge losses on the battlefield and if we all going to make any difference in ukraine, you know, we, we need to do something much, much, much bigger on a much bigger scale. and i think that's really what nato is, is, is negotiating and working out now with it's with it some hooks on the eastern side of europe and his stubs in terms of, from some germany who don't want escalation. i don't want to. ready a real war with nature or to, you know, the language just turn into tactical strikes. that's what i'm hearing. a lot tactical strikes with very, very dangerous, you know, i mean, and what is a, what does that take binding leading out to, to the elections. you know, as you can explain this to, to votes is when the, the, the economy in america is going to stop tunnel. the explosive pointing this out that you know binds, got quite good dates as to the 6.
