that's college, but todd, if it's joining us, live from a jetta where it's about 10 pause midnight. appreciate you joining us as such a late hour here on how to international. thank you very much. yeah. and have a to all your audience. thank you. so the united nations representative as cold in america to on so for the abuses, inflicted on inmates of the guantanamo bay prison. come, she said as an apology and a long promised shot down to the detention facility. a long over to here. torture was a betrayal of the rights of the victims of the $911.00 attacks. the u. s. government must urgency, provide judicial resolution apology and guarantees of non repetition. i still have serious concerns about the continued detention of now 13 men at still there and the persistent arbitrariness that provides their day to day existence. i observed that after 2 decades of custody,

the suffering of those detained is profound. and it's ongoing. every single detainee i met with lives with the unrelenting harms that follow from systematic practices of rendition, torture and arbitrary detention, but better known as gift mo, located as in cuba. the facility was established by president george w bush, or as ministration vista in around 2002 during the whole, the war on terror reports of abuse and torture of the congress international alarms . and i'm just the international time that prisoners human rights were simply disregarded, being kempland the,

to, well, the us and the special reference to his comments on the questionable, the attention of i get my prisoner as follows. numerous us promises to close down the prison. latest page came from the biden administration last february. the strongest assurances were made by the former us president some years ago. but rock obama,

i have said repeatedly that i intend to close. guantanamo and i will follow through on that when i was elected in 2008, i said we need to close one town and i continue to believe that we've had a close one time with them provide the process whereby one time more will be closed no later than one year from now, you know, i was discussing about just a few moments ago actually with the former us intelligence officer john kerry act of a john saying that wallace in good the un special rubber 2 of has spoken up as basically no way for the international organization to hold those behind the prison and the allegations of torture, there's no way to help them accountable for the cry. it's an important international issues the united states is not in the mainstream of civilized countries on, on these issues of, of torture and rendition and secret prisons and, and keeping people without charging them with

a crime. but without allowing them to have to face their peers. inner port court room. so uh its, it's good the, the special ref, the tour spoke up the previous special wrapper tour. noon smells are also spoke up and also issued reports. but the shame of it is that, uh that, uh, i think the united states is going to just ignore it. there's no way to hold the united, the united states kind of what the sad truth of the matter is that the, the position of you in special rep, a tour for, for torture does not have any teeth associated with it. there's no enforcement authority. so he or she can give speeches and an issue press releases and write reports, but there is no way to compel the united states uh, to uh, to follow the law. what it says is that some countries are held to

a certain legal standard, and others are not any other country would be held to a tougher standard. the coupon in the defense minister has held talks with his russian counterpart in moscow just days. i guess a couple of days now after the failed the military mutiny during the meeting, he placed the blame on nato's expansion for instigating the current military conflict. the bonus said, how do they just desire to continue expanding towards the boldest of the russians? the duration led to conflict and force to boss or to launch a special military operation. the united states and some of its l lies have repeatedly used force, the invited sober and countries an interview. it's in the internal affairs because those countries did not submit to the gem and it can serious and defend the independence to base against such a policy. or if he pol christy and double standards, he said it will make us take responsibility for the consequences stuff. let's aggressive military doctrine beyond native borders, which dressings piece,

security and international stability. that's why more of this right now, of course, and we'll have to professor of latin american and carbon studies the areas daniels showed up. joining us here. we're not you international daniel, it's great to have you on this program. i know you're keeping a close watch on this the, the, the russian defense minister stressing the russia cuba relations are on the rise today. i would assume that have on a welcome side to outlook, but how about partners and so in western countries, what do you think that position would be this greetings, rory. i want to 1st say i was in havana recently and what i heard from the cuban people over and over and over is that they would be starving if it wasn't for moscow. if it wasn't for the russians in the deals around tourism around uh, we in, in, in food, in these different um ways of breaking the u. s. is uh,

a unilateral blockade, the cuban said that they would be starving. so i wanted to start with that very human know, because that shook me uh to, to the core, to hear that uh, over and over again. we see high level uh meetings between the russians and the cubans. this is obviously not a pleasant news for those in washington that was to suffocate blockade. it makes things extremely difficult both for this island to link only 90 miles away from the florida keys and for this powerful country halfway across the world of russia. in how important the club of sanction in black 80 countries continue to find one another to washington chagrin. you know, i know the interesting side note here as i say, cuba is 90 miles or so from the florida keys. it really, really is in the back garden that all of the sunshine state. um biden's been talking about this in recent days. i know basically since 2019 china has had,

uh well what america calls us by bureau in cuba. but now we know that china is essentially working with cuba to what we understand as being that they're going to build a chinese what some according a military base, or it's a military facility. in cube, i kind of hawks back. it kind of reminds me of the old, she wouldn't miss all prizes going back to the soviet union. i mean, how big of a deal would it be to have bane shang stationed on the doorstep or the southern us if this, this chinese for so it does get finalize in cuba? you said it's only 90 miles from the florida keys as well. the cube is certainly have the right to their own sovereignty to make their own self determining economic, military, and diplomatic decisions. the cuban missile crisis of 1962 was a nato us missile crisis as well. and a turkish missile crisis, because they had a degree of warheads pointed out the soviet union for how many years in decades in

the western press, never ordered a word in critique of that. so there's so many double standards on display here. the united states continues to occupy, the south. china sea continues to surround china with all types of military threats . how many tens of thousands of us soldiers stationed in, uh, south korea. uh now the phillipines. uh, they continually sending more of their troops there, as well as in japan. so certainly the cubans have the right to know it's a broker the deals that they want with the chinese and for the us to critique this puts on full display how the car. so we have a double standard when it comes to these geo political and geo economic and geo military matters. what about when you talk about, i guess, the geo politics and your economic matters of their idea is how that a cuba could be looking to join the brakes. finally alliance, brazil, or russia,

india, china in south africa. but then you've got bricks plus and as i understand there are like 2 dozen other countries who wants to join brakes if indeed havana would to be accepted into the bricks. finally, how could that a just to boost position on the global geo political chessboard? do you think, i think would be an incredibly important geo political move. the cuban people are suffering right now. the special period did not end when the soviet union imploded or collapsed in 1991. this left in the entire warsaw pact, nations. this left cuba virtually alone in isolated as the sol, bashing of, of socialism, of anti imperialism house in the entire world for, for a decade there and for the cubans. now, it's not just the cubans who want to join bricks plus is the argentines. i've read the dozens of middle eastern countries are trying to join. so the center of

political and economic gravity in the world is moving away from the united states. the chinese g d. p. chinese economic output could pass that of the, the us in the next decade. so there is a multi pull the world not just on the horizon, but really on the doorstep, i think we're living through what historians will call world shaking changes. we see the saudi sitting down with the russians and the saudis broker. this, this does deal with the chinese and the iranians and syria has returned to the arab league. these are all things that we could not have predicted even a year ago. right? yeah, it's, it's, i mean, it's just incredible. like like you said, i will basically have front row seats to, to, to the, the biggest changes happening in a 100 years as multi part of well that is quite something incredible and amazing times. we were living through right now, professor of a lot in american academy and studies daniel shaw, always appreciate the opportunity to pick your brain. thanks very much for joining us. thanks. thank you. well,

the legislation is marching his way through us congress to stop funding the un commission, which investigates israel for its actions against palestinians in an attempt to justify the proposal. a republican accomplishment cited continuous criticism that israel has been facing put him in the united nations. these royalties of routinely attacked and on the mind to across the entire system, while the world's was team and bytes abuse us to remain. frankly, relatively, i'm touched, the effectiveness and the we just failure. so the united nations and you and bodies do not familiar with support when you, when commission of inquiry, investigators violations of international law, particularly if human rights abuses and has taken the name of israel. and while america is the un was largest funding source, the proposed budget cut with amount to over $700000000.00 the same time, washington is also looking to eliminate the office of the special representative of

palestinian affairs on centrally inside the us state department building. meantime over a 100 palestinians have been killed by as ready for us as in the 1st 5 months of this year. that's double the amount from the same time last year. and we discussed all this with a pro palestinian activist from jerusalem and the supporting the is a prototype. there's a aggression against 1st thing in the support thing. is it a violation of human rights or processing? is that supporting the violation of the international law? but is it a, this is what america is when it comes to, to put us in, you know, even if is it, i wouldn't throw on the stomach bump on guys, up the americans would do nothing and they would keep on throwing video. and. 7 and not taking any serious step against them as a good a shit. so this is the equation in, in, inside both the congress and, and the white house that americans keep listening to

a box to the jewish not be in washington said these eats, they keep listening to that. i mean, global is a, goes to the present in yahoo and they don't want citizens to the palestinians. they don't want to see the city. and the pakistan has some of the us embassies, deputy chief of mission for questioning over a controversial statement about fighting tara in the south asian country taking in . but what it considers is american support for its neighbor india pakistan's concerns and disappointment at the unwarranted one sided and misleading references to it in the joint statements were convey to the us side. it was stressed that the united states should refrain from issuing statements that may be construed as an encouragement of india is baseless and politically motivated, narrative against pakistan. it was also emphasized the counter terrorism

cooperation between pakistan and the us had been progressing well. and that in enabling environment centered around trust and understanding was imperative to further solidifying pakistan us ties in the joint statement of the pack us don advocacy with us president by and then india is prime minister called on his mom about to ensure that his territory is never used by any terrors, activities in the us state department, echo the sentiment just days later and even gave a back handed cumberland to his mom about appraising it's and he, tara efforts, but savings time, much more still needs to be done. we remain committed to working with pakistan to address the shared threat posed by terrace groups throughout the region. we do recognize that pakistan has taken some important steps to counter terrace groups in line with the completion of its financial at action task force action plans at the same time. however, we have also been consistent on the importance of pakistan continuing to take steps to permanently dismantle all terrace groups including lock, sir h i. e,

but chase and mohamad and their various front organizations that dr. maria assault on i had of the south, asian strategic stipulations that had spoken to out to you about washington's history of using terrorism. uh, excuse me, fighting terrorist in other countries. we would have appreciated this comment. i had it not being the fact that the united states actually left just kind of spun with eyes left, took on this done with one trillion dollars at the us defense bunch of things spent over there and, and the entire region in the mess. and as you are there russia, if i could son china, i've got his son and even iran, and he's given the rest of the region to suffering, not to leave the future influx, we suffering from human drug trafficking, be suffering with the kind of that some of the biggest drug problems and most unfortunately, the, or even not shorts, eyes of the cells uh, you know, has actually this kind of stuff. so the bigger question is, is that if you are fighting against terrorism and there is no big country officer of kind of son, just given so many lives. a flip, our fight against that hasn't been focused on some details and focus on these have

lost their lives. the, the net amount of damage. sure country has run into billions of dollars. it's not trans. and then they have the audacity to tell us that we should do more. i think this would have been a practical and wise had been most left of kind of spending a mess and had be all much depth with the us interventionism winters and has been a natural outcome from the places where the form from the city comes to southern africa where religious organizations and maybe have spoken out against a supreme court decision which rules that same sex marriages, performed a broad will be recognized. ok shortly. my guess is from the coalition of christian churches total. those listening to our speech that western ideals are being forced upon africa the the, the, the, the,

the, the, the well, the supreme court decision of a time to previous high court rolling would refuse to accept such marriages performed outside the country. this one, so religious leaders organize a number of a and c l g, b t q protests and we got some reaction from some of the locals. i was not going to send a note to everything that is listed and we must be also

pushing don suprised religious songs and we understand that the price of the google has over. so india is a supreme court to lift the anti trust directives against the company on the smart fi market. almost all the smartphones use in india are powered by the android operating system, which is basically belonging to google. and last year,

in this competition commission that use google of exploiting is dominant position and impose to find on 5 business practices. in fact, in march and india and cold gave the tech giant partial relief. and now the company wants old remaining limitations to be listed. but as the american tech companies are dominating world market, so alternative platforms such as a take talk. they've had a hard time fighting to secure that piece of the pie. we discussed all of that at more. the latest episode of $360.00, if you, if you look at the major media, social media platforms that arose during the early august, they're all american social media companies, right? the pay tick tock, even if they're new offices for, for like by chance are based in, you know, single 4 or, you know, they're moving to ireland. they're still a chinese company. and i think that gives

a lot of legislators for boss because whether it's facebook, instagram or take talk, we by downloading these apps and using them, or giving them a lot of data on who we are, what we do, where we are, and all that data can be used and manipulated. i mean, i think this is the implicit understanding of a social media platform is by engaging in it. we are not their customers, we are their product. everything that we do on it is then be sold to advertisers. you know, the big question is, can these platforms be used to manipulate us in certain ways with misinformation, test information, whatnot. and those things, you know, they may not care about how your, you know, your cleaning tips and all those things. but they might care about your location where your base, they might care about the content that you're,

you're engaging with to see how some sceptical you are to certain points of view. i think it's a think talk is a easy target in some ways for that kind of by part is in the you know, anger if you want to call it that or skepticism may, it may be a better word. the why that's just about it for now. here, thanks for joining us on the international. lots of your stories still become with the updates a task. when we return to the top of the, the pendulum, those will be always believes that life as a full set, that all the is ups and downs, the india

before the british was the richest nation with the highest g d, b in the world. and why did the 100 years of british troops bring it to low or some could be interacting or late? so it gets back to the they came to take our change, our tech style, our role material, even the for making canon the cannonball they needed the search feature which came from india, india. and i just don't do property. they have no right to take my property, my i don't my gods. we went to our big spaces. i was see could spaces of tempers and jenny, wine and keep pointed out these pieces. in fact, the word new also is like in the wood,

which is now going into the english big city. so, quite telling me, even the, a human, the word lute has been muted into the english lexicon. suppose you have um enabled dig important labels and display issue. as soon as i get from your home, what do you do the like if you take an example of a piece of jewelry, sometimes it may take that it's, it needs repair or it's totally broken. you may decide to break it up, rubles, suggest gemstones, and actually manage the goal and re cost. and it might be even bright to and better than what it was before the. the good news

is we do want good. good. good, good. good, good, good, good, good, good, good. i'm inside my shoulder due shortly. i see them on a village. 2 minutes before it is my side. i just saw the rest of the parts. i've just been off, that's quite b one do manually. well, you see on modern manufacturing units in glasgow. i know cartoons in manchester. it was all roast, which was also our misfortune. because had we been a poor country, i don't think they would have come here sooner than the guys do more. this was about, you know, what, the next step words they made all the people i guess i've taken glitching some hints like on the black to me through the listing agent here, you'd like to it is not that good. this is a punishment, not harmony. you'll be what i've been doing for centuries,

like born ready to the east india company. he's here to save you from the oppressive social events and get the future. they propagated falsely, that india is a land of saint john. most elephants, cocoa dies, and we have to see relate these higgins and pheasants. so we have to convert them because chinese is to stop this london is going on in the name of knowledge dentist to enter our mission is going through the room, someone on the one of the main reasons for the success of these india comes to me was the did unity among indians, lots of provinces, and got jobs and might as well look on simply fighting with each other. the can be begin before in

hastings with any aggressive interior list, who was able to break up the confederacy of the various states who realize the danger of a brochure which was beginning in 1776. so they taught the british, we'll just get another player. the probably did not foresee the admission effect that these people who are bringing in that it was not just economic, you know, a clean relations that they were looking at. they were looking at political subjugation, which was undermined or not talk through well enough by the local indian p as well. the said, the economic structure of india with such needs destroyed because india at the time of input a shuttle home, is the 6 which is country and the was, it had the volume of trade was $16.00 of the world, the feeling value. and in between, when the british came here,

the story begins and 1716. 1938. did use. what does it use when the indian artifacts sort of stolen from indian temples, houses, policies are sent us data to printer, schmoozing, di, british museum. just feet with stolen items. the and here we are tonight, outside of it is rosie m. it just means gorgeous from the outside. less on the inside. it's quite controversial. as some people might want to call it. so let's head inside and,

and see what is all of the artifacts taken from india that this idea is i'm on had, i live in new delhi and i'm just recently graduated from master's women television school in london. so i was about to move out from london, come back to india. and when i got this opportunity, i thought that was the best way for me to spend my last days in london by going and going and looking at these museums that had artifacts and guided, showed bases of belonging to my own country to you see this entire section is fairly solid, asian loaded artifacts of the things i saw that kind of the line did my, my love for history and i was literally experiencing it see in front of me. and it was of a view to mix of emotions that i felt it was, it was, it was it. there was

a sense of sadness. there was a sense of pride decides, just like any of these of furniture that belongs to somebody's house, belongs to that house and should not be lo, data by some 3rd party, and be put on display and some other houses are in some other country. um and especially made intuitive stickers of action out of it and monetized. so there are 2 ways of thinking that when neutral, these artifacts monuments, which were lying in ruins, perhaps if they had to remain they would have gone, become drawings, broken pillows, as you see. and roman for him perhaps by going to the british museum. they were present flushed, but posterity. the .
