we can go to have this no, i'll put that into actually trying to know what happens from the sources. double checking, screening, verifying that was, has low decided that's. 6 is u k, that it was to defend the projects. and therefore it is, you create the decides, you know, except what happens even in terms of objective. but the other 2 ukraine is found to be on the side to be doing things that is not supposed to be doing the west and by extension. it's a corporate and media perez has no interest in the report to truthfully, on the object to the 26th annual st. petersburg,

international academic form wraps up today and rushes northern capital friday. saul bottom here for take the stages, the main speaker. archie continues is exclusive coverage on russia's biggest economic event. the, the russian president touched upon a wide range of issues from economic cooperation to the situation on the front lines. a new frame. here are some of his key points from his speech as his mother, and that seems to be super familiar with the despise of the difficulties. last year . we did not switch to the positive self isolation role that we expanded contacts with all reliable and responsible partners. and those countries in the region that act as the drivers of the world economy as homes now. and i would like to emphasize that these and the markets of the future, everyone understands the full well. status of these countries did not give into the cavities,

external pressure. the guy didn't know why someone else is but raw the by the national interest, convenience of comstock, i knew the issue is that ukrainians and using cycled strategic reserves which consist of several elements. however, they haven't been successful in any area. indeed, that last was a huge around $1.00 to $10.00 in comparison to the russian army. in terms of military equipments, they losing more and more everyday. medium longer, i'm going to hear you what it was this childhood. i've always had many jewish friends. they say zalinski is nothing to the is a disgrace of yours that there and his accomplices. other ones considered heroes of ukraine today. they are those who today is the crating, the authorities, the finding both individually and the only the only j. how can we not fight against this? russia is the country to suffer the most on this. we will never forgive this if this is not in the northeast and then one of the states, and we have the right to consider that our target to d non spa ukraine is one of our key objectives of it is for zone. you

don't know what those are business loan for. sure, the use of nuclear weapons is theoretically possible, but 1st of all, we don't have such needs. and secondly, the very fact of raising this issue reduces the possibility of lowering the threshold for the use of weapons. at the same time, we have many more weapons and that's of nato countries. they know this and all the time they try to persuade us to stop negotiations on the reduction, screwed them. so it was slow. the st. petersburg, international economic form, gather and 17000 purchase. arise from a 130 delegations from asia, africa, and latin america. here's our cheese union, o'neill in our studio at the forum, reporting how the event contributes to growing multi polarity of the $26.00 in petersburg and vessel. economic for them is into it's final day at through the boss at doors here because it is a huge f facility over the last number of days helps the diplomats, scientists,

public figures on presidents as well. a total of some, $17000.00 participants from over a $130.00 countries were here. and that is a figure that if you're looking at some of the headlines in the west leading up to the event should not have happened. russian was supposed to be isolated, not open for business. if anything, this adventure was that is the complete opposite at biggest people. i've been here thinking business deals at trying to find where the world sits at currently rushes place in the, in the global economy as well. i'm all coming in search of deepening ties on and making those contacts at which key hubs like this bring together the, the creatives, the entrepreneurs to people who, who want to make a spark happen. and that's what we're seeing. it is an energy here, right? right. these days at going from one side of the spectrum,

the other so many small and medium sized enterprises, russian businesses f, finding an opening in the market. the property was in there. when the western problems were here, they've got a chance to show their worth. and what they can bring to the market, as well as western currencies at we're losing their grip on russia. now that appears to be a global trend as well, assuming the dollar eyes ation by loft road trade from country the country at being done with thought. the global reserve currency that of the dollars seeing that we can do a trade without the behemoth, and it will lead to bigger profits for all. well, just in terms of the audience here i'm, i'm people that are coming from the global sized asia, africa site in central america. the, there is a crossing i, as i said, of energy and perhaps putting it into context for us was an interview i did

yesterday with per name. i'm on admonishing director of the bricks organization. let's take a listen to what she had to say on how the world is looking going forward on high speed. the st. petersburg, international economic for him is playing a role in not letting marvin back this year. um many countries come here for the investment inside their share because they show open the new policies part of a send me money effectively. insight that i share details. i bring them kind of part of the interesting part for development. but also 2nd because i the solutions so for reloads with the president allowed me to put the inside the fix up for the last 4 and the left man. and all the agents are doing a modern investment side coming and followed on countries be tied into the state to

be mark, not also to share the out here to stand, not only to get an energy for them, but they're interested to invest in this. yeah, so this is very good success and this is new opportunity for ration dejan center shouldn't be fun to participate with the funding investments and part of the business. it is the very big success. russian presidency, aggression, business community that they overcome in on the all 3 of the beach and they faced from the sanctions. i am from many countries and this is the successful solution is paige and russian efforts. it is a new operation, a new model for the next slide. these one part, the countries are present during this st. petersburg form, archie sat down with the russian foreign minister survey lobrado. he said that

western states continue to pressure other nations in order to turn them against moscow. the anglo saxons in the allies are pressuring everyone they con, including our closest allies, such as the members of the collective security treaty organizations, and the arab states of the gulf and no exception. the methods used by the west, all excuse me. i say the sippy route, i have no other to you say when they talk about these rules of which the international holding must be based on what they really mean is that dick tact, colonial instincts live at the expense of others. nothing else. but they constantly claim that they are defending democracy and ukraine's defending the values of the western civilization. i've touched upon this many times. they only speak about democracy when they teach others how to live in your story. do you must hold elections. i say you must transfer a power from the military to the civilians or vice versa. but whenever there was any talk of democracy on the international arena,

the west shuts down and doesn't want to discuss this. and that's very telling. you can watch that complete interview with survey law over all throughout the day here on r t and state to, to the channel as will be continuing our coverage of the 26 annual st. petersburg international economic forum. the molly is called for un peacekeeping forces to leave the country without delay, with a foreign minister saying may fail to deal with the current security challenges he was speaking during a un session, which was discussing pro long even the mission for another year. the motors law means the government of molly calls for the withdrawal from a nice note without delay. when these most seems to have become part of the problem by fusing community tensions, excessive, baited by extremely serious allegations,

which are highly determined sold for peace, reconciliation and national confusion. in molly c, u. n mission was deployed to molly a decade ago to help the country maintain security following a coo and 2012 other report shows the country's long been struggling with revel uprisings and attacks by terror groups. and the last 15 years, there's a whole regent. molly is a part of, has seen a 2000 percent increase in terrorism and molly itself, the number of gaps as a result of terror attacks, was up by 56 percent frustration about the declining security situation. i've seen protest on the streets and the situation is, or transit and money in including a population employee. titian agree on that. nothing has changed in money. and after they've pushed a phrase to out of money, i see that they un knew that these would happen in terms of the deadlines. because

if it cannot change the situation, they would have to go. and this is low, surprising anyone about it. because the to be fun is the way to do the search, see the money in terms of the $14.00, you had these out of money in the shipping. most of the cities i see people out there. so what are they doing? the why they're not changing the situation. they say back keeping peace. ok, it's a chipping face. can you please remove those? you have is out of money that don't believe so. like say, i guess the maybe to have boots on the lease to have a web for people, but not really to keep money seats or as it was before they call the the president number wrong is back on home soil following a tour of latin america. the trip saw dozens of agreement signed with 3 allies,

who shared 2 runs, defiance stand against western powers, as are to is use of drill all the explains. the president praising is back from his 4 to 3 last name argon country. he's a historic tribe that detective as well, nicaragua, in cuba. they want to do those countries, definitely have a lot in common as long there. you want to sanctions and all have very targeted by region change attempts by washington. so it really is, it tries to build on this common ground to most of all sorts ties with like minded nations that are the same time are geographically close to the u. s. something which american officials have reacted to saying that is true. dennis tries the failure of president july, it is not an american policy. so now he was trying to create a unified funds comprised of the sanctions, his nations, to define washington as pressures during his for day by the americans read for easy thought, assigned dozens of economic and political agreements and different seals from

energy to id and mining to power plants to pay the way for future cooperation with that as well. the garage you are in cuba, you were signs 35 agreements and member on himself understandings with these 3 countries in the fields of energy, industry, mining, power plants and the subject. the have good capabilities in latin america like bio technology to just in general because there's 2 sides valve to boost by that will trade from the car to $3000000.00 to $20000000000.00. and we're also inc. 6 major corporation deals with several other agreements with maggie. what do you want me to present? i said, to confront the us. i still he, there's no way to resist if sometimes it's want to be our enemy. naturally, we will conduct a resistance done through gold and such an adversary. having declared that an rams nation has acted on its and now this resistance has been taken for more

countries was interest are completely aligned when he was in q r easy. so that one i have, i have a common was the, including, there's to blow for independence. the one who present i said that he was a so called maxima, pressure campaign, against the wrong, has failed in the phase of resistance. he said that this is thanks to constructive relations with independent property such as that as well to you are. and i need to write us a reason believes that it was ties with those lot. the american countries are not normal, but strategic sense is immersion. as it was, president raising said that it was nice to avoid kind gives economy to the 2015 deal when that was sent, that to wash it fine new destinations to our driveway and our partner was to neutralize this anxious. and this seems to be perfectly matching the multiple order it was looking to break about with the half of its partners like russia and china.

latin america under ron, are not the only global actors trying to shift away from western had germany. this area in finance minister says that damascus is planning to apply to join both of brooks plus group. along with the shanghai cooperation organization, syria and authorities have long referred to brooks as a just force and an organization that brings a mutual prosperity, especially to those countries targeted by western sanctions. a middle east expert we heard from believes that both syria and the bricks countries would benefit from damascus joining the group. if it puts the test part of the global geopolitics, we see that the naturally position of syria is on the side of the developing economies, especially the brakes congress to know that syria is coming out of the word and trying to liberate it's a gas pipelines for example or gas fuels on the eastern shore of the euphrates that the americans are okay. fine. it isn't a port trinity for syria,

to present itself on the ground, to support of, of the words that it can play a role in, in changing the balance of power from a pump, which is in favor of the united states. still being to the other side that can bring into good can bring the bus to a month to pull the word i think that probably already should be from the brakes. countryside to invest in syria and stabilize the country. and hope serial gets rid of the american occupational forces for us that occupies the gas fields. as i mentioned on the eastern shore of the freight is so that both syria and the brakes countries kind of have mutual benefits from the candidacy or the syrian attempt or wish to join the brakes. congress. let's turn back now to a story we've been following throughout the day to discuss the obstacles of the african delegation has had to navigate in kids as well as the fate of the delegations piece plan. i'm joined the live in the studio by zambian socialist party chairman. i can name the matron dumb,

and let's turn here now. thank you so much for joining me here in studio. now. recently, top level international visit, they always seem to end an alarm sounding and claims that the visitor is in danger of russian showing when it comes to p as specifically. now, these visits are of course, public knowledge. so what reasons would russia have to pardon those foreign leaders when everyone knows that they are going to be visiting the look? that's wisdom, propaganda. and we're used to that globally. we now know that, look, russia is just seeking to protect itself. we know the reason for the conflict, it's not about russia being aggressive. it's about being self protective. so look, wisdom propaganda won't fly any more across the world. the rest of us needs to

protect itself, and that's all that's happening when you think that the rest of the world is buying onto those stories, right? when they put those claims out there, so much in the western media carries and, but for the world who isn't watching the western media, how do they view it? you know, when ever it comes to those stories, do you think that they're actually putting in the time to think more and to question the narratives that are being put out there? i think it's a mix. pick job. we have to be honest about it. the west and media has invested so much in driving the narrative and the propaganda. so they is a big section of the world that does believe the stories that they tell them on the narrative that they do propagate. but they is also a big portion of the world, especially in africa, that is now standing up to say, look, what is going on. we know russia, we've had a long relationship with russia. we've dealt with russia. so we're able to get the

right information and the true information. so we hope that we can also have more platforms that give us the honest opinions, the honest information about what is going on. and not just relying on wisdom media that is trying to brainwash people with a narrative of via the peaceful ones. they are the ones that understand democracy and visual. teach the rest of the world, vist out democracy, which doesn't even work for them. yeah, there's an excellent point now getting back into sort of this interference that we've seen specifically with this delegation, we saw that the south african delegations plane from poland was prevented from even crossing into hungary airspace to get to russia. what do you think that the reason behind that action could be? look to dr. negation is a mix. the negation to start with. we've got the lead us in that delegation,

that's the zombie and president, for example, has cited with ukraine. throughout this, this conflict. the zombie and government voted against russia in the us. i'm silverado, and he doesn't that delegation. and then we've also got, and he does that has stood up for russia during this process. so we knew that this was not going to be an easy venture. and also the truth is that even with the delegation, we have a lot of questions in africa. we have a lot of questions in zambia, because backend zambia, all government doesn't stand up for russia. all government hasn't propagated, illegitimate conquests for peace. they have cited with ukraine during this crisis, so it makes us wonder who are they coming here to russia to represent? are they coming here to represent drug of ukrainian interest? are they coming here to represent ukraine and russia?

so i mean, the whole venture, to be honest, especially that you have good people who have not shown us in their deeds in that designation that the advocates in peace, that they're here to propagate the legitimate concerns of peace. yeah, and that interference only seems as if they're telling the delegation. you don't know what you're doing and you shouldn't be allowed to do this as if they're speaking for them. now, a lot of what we've seen coming from the nations in africa, they're stepping forward that are saying, hey, we want to be involved in facilitating peace talks. we want to help find the solution. it seems as though they are saying, hey, we want to get on the international stage and really have a voice. and we've seen this kind of playing out over the past few years with africa playing more of a geo political role. what do you think are the chances for south africa is remo. so says piece plan to actually succeed, and to be something that is taken into account by russia and ukraine. the truth is

that the west always looks down and africa. from the colonial days. africa has not been an equal pay on the table for the list. and this interference is again, a reflection of the one to dictate who does what, who speaks to who, who goes with the same way that they use their currency as a weapon. they also want to use the african continent as a weapon. we have not a weapon. we will pick who we can talk to. we can pick, we can sideways and we will pick. but we advocate for peace of the african continent. and if our need does, and we do have genuinely doesn't identification, but as seeking to advocate for peace, then they should be allowed to do that. so natal, i'm the west, just reflecting exactly what that underlies. the crisis between russia and ukraine been not seeking peace. the seeking for divide

the well what they want people to be on the side. they want for golf on this side and they want people to pick sides. we can live as a global family. we're not looking to divide the world. we want to unify the world . we want a global community that is peaceful that respect, think java. i'm been not looking to propagate that. this interference is very clear that they want to divided well. yeah. and that they divide the world because of legal nomic reasons for themselves because of military reasons. they want to want to continue because for them it's beneficial. a s. yeah, absolutely. and now when it comes to, you know, something you mentioned earlier, which is that people in africa, may i, the beginning of all of this over a year ago, and quite to say, okay, they support ukraine. but looking at this situation right now, considering rushes, historic ties with africa. and of course,

this controversy around the african leaders visit to key. yeah. do you think that it's more likely for the general public to really question the situation here in the question, who they should support or even if they should have more support for russia as a whole moving forward? definitely, i think this really changes on tips. the scales on in russia's favor, because the truth is that it has shown what people were struggling to explain the balance of, of forces and the interference and how the west and how natal, i'm the allied countries try to divide africa from russia. i'm from peace. so for the african continent, i think this is a turning point for those that were questioning, i hope it's time for them to wake up and say, look,

even our need as well went well, we're going both to achieve and to russia. why wouldn't they stopped when going to kids in kit? why wouldn't they told not to ok, but now they're being come to come to a russia. come on. it's a new time. yeah, yeah. now, when it comes to the response that we've seen from ukraine, right, you have a delegation that goes there. they say, hey, this is our proposed piece plan, and then you crane immediately is negative towards it. why do you think that they have refused to even consider this plan and how much of that western interference do you think? is it play here successfully when it comes to nature countries and when it comes to the west, africa is not taken seriously. africa is not a superpower to them. so africa doesn't come to the table and propose things to them. africa supposed to be shut down with their policies, with their propaganda and with their own agenda. so for them,

they still live in neil colonialism. they still believe that africa is a colony, so we're not supposed to sit at the table, but this is showing us that africa sits up the table, and africa can come to the table and say, let's have peace and just talk about peace. and how can we draw a road map to peace and even new pieces across oceans? it fits everybody, of course the blow. if somebody is dying and rush off, somebody is dying in europe. it's a global problem. we want global peace. so africa needs to be taken seriously by the west, but they, they don't have that spirit behind the high geological processes. yeah. and then when it comes to some of the solutions that are being put forth, i want to get into where the grand deal stands here, right? because when it came to this green deal, and part of the negotiations were russia said, look, we want to make sure that the poorest countries in the world are the ones who benefit from this grand deal,

not brand new countries in europe. this was something that they have highlighted and emphasized again and again. and this greenville really is an important aspect of room of photos plan, because millions of africans could be exposed to starvation without it. so what do you think is behind those reports of its potential failure? and why don't you think that greenville is something that has been emphasized more in the media? because africa solving for wisdom, media doesn't matter if there was the vision in europe as of starvation in the us. and then they think that there's a problem and there's a catastrophe. but when africans are hungry for them, they don't care. that's a little crisis. if we look at how many africans on how many people die in the congo every year, it's more people that have died in ukraine. but if you look at the media coverage of the ukraine was, it's much more vast,

but the people that died in the congo and it's the same principle behind why don't they talk about the green and the policy. so full a country, legs on the for example. last yeah, the russian government offered african countries for july, the to help with production of our food stuff. oh, cool. and staple food relies on fritz eliza production. and those i'm getting government refused. a free donation of i think it was 40 metric tons of for july. the other countries i think was in beacon of the surrounding neighboring countries took lot of donation. we had to for july, the price of things on the last year. so even though a green um output this year has been catastrophic. this means that we've got hung situation looming. but this is not going to be reported. this is not going to

be something that is highlighted in the west and media because it's not of concern to them. yeah, it truly is and devastating. just how that double standard continues to come into play when we really appreciate you taking the time to join us to bring us up to speed and to learn some insight into just what is actually going on. them being socialist party chairman, a candidate, remember sion donna, thank you so much for your time today. thank you. i or in the united nations has worn it will have no choice but to cut food aid for 2 and a half 1000000. serious. it comes as the organization is, has an unprecedented funding crisis. only last year, the organization had to cut food a by 3rd to hundreds of thousands of syrian refugees and jordan, partly due to aid requirements from the war and ukraine. that's a middle growing humanitarian crisis, and sudan and the long simmering conflict. and yeah, i'm and then you, it says that the syrians are living in a perpetual state of emergency,

warning that after 12 years of war, a global pandemic, massive displacement and the devastating earthquake ordinary people rely heavily on humanitarian aid. the un general secretary recently made an urgent appeal for $11000000000.00 of additional funding to cover all needs required. now this comp, besides the us secretary of state and i was washington will provide $900000000.00 of humanitarian this.
