the, the, the, the headlines off you as a national, as the 5 and white house is the boys to dispatch deadly fuss the bottoms to ukraine, munitions, but germany is opposed to sending all native maintains a neutral stop radioactive water is set to be pumped off the coast of japan, as china comes out on the sea, food invalids. all those details are up and coming. we are not sure in the manner in which a lot of other countries are they have already matter. we cannot make objectives. india is foreign minister on a 4 day present to the east africa nation depends any of us the g 20 chaff daily,

focused on building tides with emotion economies of the global sound and the growing multi potable water. the so pushing back on the main street narrative to get to you your news on the field top story right now. and we go straight to america. why, despite a pledge to phase out cluster munitions in 2016 because of the risk the civilians, washington has now announced plans to send a controversial weapon to key have the ukraine has been requesting cluster munitions in order to defend its own sovereign territory. the costs are munitions that we would provide have done rates far below what russia is doing. we're closely coordinating with ukraine, as it has requested these munitions. ukraine is committed to post conflict, the mining efforts to mitigate any potential harm to civilians. these weapons are quite powerful,

they're quite destructive. now they've been used by both parties currently in ukraine, so they're not a new edition. but what is new is that, you know, the fact that the us who is claiming not to be a party to the conflict is yet again taking another escalade, reset. the us itself stopped using these weapons, used them in the rack and use them in previous conflicts. of course, but stopped using them in 2016 themselves to start to stockpile the munitions. now it says it wants to sort of start following the forwarding domain to this, to me going to renew crane the reaction even from us face to human rights groups, which is unusual, has, has been one of condemnation. and you know, they cite the destructive power of these weapons, and these are dpi, cm's, you know, at the dual purpose in proved cluster munitions which can disperse tiny bomb. and it's over at large areas. and they have huge destructive power on the battlefield. but they also leave the potential for civilians to be harmed. by the way we can

actually hear what the human rights watch had to say about this. the use of cluster munitions in areas with civilians makes an attack indiscriminate in violation of international humanitarian law and possibly a war crime. the cluster munitions that the united states is considering sending to ukraine are more than 20 years old. scatter over a wide area and have a notoriously high failure rate, meaning they could remain deadly for years. so as you can see, uh these are quite dangerous weapons and they don't just and they're not just effective on the file seal against the military entity or armored entities. there also have a potential terrible lagging effect on local civilian population. so of course, it will be american children who are injured by these in the post conflicts and how your farmers plowing and feel the ukrainians and potentially russians. but also this comes in the context if you will call the sending of depleted uranium. so it seems just alucard attitude to these weapons is very much in evidence here that

as well, america could condemn the use which they did for illegal cluster bombs and vacuum bombs being used by the russian. if that's true, what is the next step of this in ministration? is there a red line for how much violence will be tolerated against civilians in this manner that illegal potentially it is, it would be, i don't have any confirmation of that. we have seen the reports if, if that were true, it would potentially be a war crime fuel, but they also condemned their use in series. you and russian use them against terrorist. and we can actually have a look at that. now initial open source reporting highlights the use of cluster bombs by russian forces in several populated areas including, hama and edward's tax. using these uh, imprecise weapons, only continue to problems are necessary. so, you know, the russians have been indiscriminate. they've been reckless in syria.

they seem to have no difficulty dropping cluster munitions around we're civilians and. ready me, so as you can see, and you know, do as i say, not as i do from, from the united states and it's important. remember, united states has dropped thousands of tons of these new nations in their various military misadventures. going back as far as con, body in vietnam, and these new nations actually killing civilians still today after those conflicts, which ended decades ago. again, another game changer. this isn't going to have a definitive impact on the plane. and by will see this just not going to happen. it's only going to really expand and expand the number of civilians and unfortunate accomplishments on do you find inside who will probably have to die before this come for think it's brought to it too. and then it also represents the reality that you find has now been used as a very cynical to barbara tree for western weapon systems. most of the things that are being dumped into your brain as i mentioned, a few and this week have never been used on the modeling battlefield before. other

know, being used in a vague cynical way by the military industrial complex that to gauge their effective a successor. so a dangerous escalation, another red line pushed forward, and this inc for mental move towards more, more munitions, more, more of these policies. so we're gonna have to watch this space very carefully. and as a coffee drives on with mold, leave, why? munitions being supplied. the key of the us defense department official states that while the humanitarian situation is something to worry about, a russian victory would be was for ukraine. i'm is concerned about the humanitarian circumstance as anybody. uh, but the worst thing for civilians in ukraine is for russia to win the war. and so it's important that they don't. let's take this further right now of course you will have to form a u. s. army officer scott fan at joining us here on, on the international. i see you shaking your head this going, hey, listen, great to have your the program a very well welcome to you. what do you, what do you think? yeah, i mean, lots of a lot of headlines on cluster munitions,

both sides trading accusations this while the us ukraine and rush i have not signed onto the treaty that prohibits they use for just scroll off the top of your head. what. what's your reaction to the white house analysing? they are preparing to send these controversial um sticky. well, rory, it's, it's so difficult and so painful. i was an officer in the united states, its army. i worked in psychological warfare. i worked at the state department. i had a high level clearance. i worked with ed snowden, it, booz allen hamilton, in fact, and i am in a rack war veteran. and then i've seen these cluster bombs dropped in a rack and little children kicking them around like soccer balls and being blown up . they're very pretty and are the size of soft balls. and children are attracted to them until they get completely blown to bits. i remember that and this is painful, they have to hear this because now i'm seeing my own government, my own a bunch of lunatic terrorists under the bite, in ministration. doing this about to do this to the ukrainian children and russian

children, they're going to be on the leasing these cluster bombs that will have not a one percent rate of, of, of a mishap. these are so old, they're going to have a 10 percent or 15 percent rate of lack of, of explosion. they are very lethal, but they were, they will explode later. and that's where the real danger comes in is i see these weapons purposely being deployed as mobile mines. they will take them apart, they will use the speakers and you will see them ending up in childhood playgrounds, in ukraine. nothing has belonged beyond these in human lunacy. nothings of course is beyond the you and nato and vitamins lunacy. but they will be taking this cluster bombs are part and they will be deploying them to impact civilian lives, impact children. i wouldn't be surprised if you see them ending up in moscow and st . petersburg being dropped there. i wouldn't be surprised if they end up in france

. these munitions, these softball sized explosive spears. i've seen the horror and destination and the, the tragedy that they on the lease, and this is going to be on least be on ukraine. so it is not just using them as cluster bombs. it's using them is improvised explosive devices and weapons of terrorism. and i've seen it in a rack, and i'm horrified and disgusted. and this demands a united nations united nations security council, the human rights crimes against humanity, a full garage of diplomatic confrontation. it is very disturbing. it's, it's really disturbing what, what you're saying. so it's sort of jump in, but you know, the fact that you are, you are, you are an iraq war veteran that you've, you've seen children, even playing with these custom, munitions. i mean, talk about, you know, innocent collateral damage for what you. so i can't even imagine i wanted to ask you, you made mention of it, you know, a few years ago, washington condemned russia for allegedly using custom munitions in syria. but now

the rhetoric has changed. emotion has decided to, to supply such um to key if i mean to, is it a case of whatever it takes? i mean, what, what's the logic is that logic behind washington's decision has gone. you know, there's delusion worried. there's pathological delusion. there is narcissism beyond anything we've seen in a political regime and politicians in the military. i think they are losing their entire sense of identity and reality. these are not people that exercise traditional diplomatic language or self reflection or moderation. or how can we live in co existence together? the american government under divided administration and the it's f b i n, c i a in a t, f and department of defense have lost all real accountability to the people because no people know americans want this conflict and want this war. but they are being

forced into it by these tyrants. so i think president putin in black or off and others have recognized it. and you see the essence of tyranny coming out in their pathological mania. seem to think that they can deploy the sort of weapons incomplete, hip parker, see, and in caught in, in conflict what they themselves have accused others of doing their now doing it and to have know, a sense of reflection or restraint or compassion, or even understanding of how serious this is going to be, shows me this government is completely devoid of any diplomatic to come a conversation. it just confirms that the russian government, the russian diplomatic corps needs to completely divorce themselves and have nothing to do with the united states or its diplomats because nothing they say can ever be trusted. nope, no signature they ever put on paper will ever be honored. and you witness their agenda to destroy children in ukraine by the use of cluster bombs,

they know will not be detonated upon in fact, but instead will be used as long term mines. and that's what they're really trying to do is set up a long term conflict in ukraine. pass to what they didn't create. skilled, you know, i mean there are a 120 countries worldwide that are opposed to the use of trusted munitions, or even germany is opposed. and it has been opposed to sending these munitions, the key of nato, according to seldom buck has a circle. the neutral stones, neither yates nor ne, but meantime the white house says it has received, written assurance, as in key of the munitions will be used with extreme caution. what do you think, scott? and i think that is about is hopeful, is the devil himself going to have an i think zalinski certain it's one of his practitioners when you see what the ukranian puppets have been, brainwashed by the u. s. c. i a in, flooded with all sorts of drugs to animate their barbarity and they're not c,

a fascist stick destruction of human beings is mario full, done, bass will dance the net and their agenda and crimea, when you witness the monstrosity tortures that these ukrainian zalinski bugs having done using us dollars and us arms and us technology and radio communications and intelligence provided by the wes, when you see what they've been doing, they're really unworthy of any human compassion their own words, the like in prison. they're even unworthy of quick depths. and i think russia is really recognizing the level of depravity to see any humanity that exists in the zelinski regime. in fact, that commentator or that you as the person who said the worst thing for ukrainians is for russian to win. i would say the best thing for ukrainians is for russia to win because it is the only country that has moral character, religious honor,

family values. and that, ironically is why the majority of the world including myself, including many other americans, are completely divorcing ourselves from any allegiance or ties or recognition of the american policy and the government. what so much of the world is going towards russia because it is the only nation that is standing for life and honor, and family religion. zalinski is destroying it. the us in many of these european countries have been destroying it. and i roddic lead the fruit of that you see in france and mcroy on and the distill disintegration of that government that's going to carry over to brittany. that's going to carry to germany. what they've done, try to do the russia. they've ended up doing to themselves, and these munitions that they're going to drop more a are going to end up being long term mine weapons. and i've seen the destruction. and i'm disgusted and horrified by what i know is going to be coming school. bennett, a former us army officer joining us by for on how to international with comment

trina analysis, you will not here on the main street media, appreciate you. well, you being so straightforward with us. scott, thank you very much for your time. thank you. what kinda is imposing a defacto bad on impulse of japanese sea food? it's a following. the island nation's decision to begin dumping volt are contaminated by the 2011 foot blue shield nuclear disaster straight into the sea. it comes off of the u. n. atomic watchdog release report claiming the whole plan would be safe. the japanese side whitewash there, discharge plan, nuclear polluted water is nuclear, polluted water, no matter what the japanese site says. they cannot package polluted water as normal water and they cannot truck. the consequences and responsibility is caused by forcibly discharging polluted water into the sea spilled water can not be gathered up again and the bad consequences of the plan cannot be reversed. we urged japan to stop trying to shock its responsibilities and honestly responsive the legitimate

concerns of the international community. they must stop promoting the plan of discharging nuclear polluted water into the sea and properly disposed of nuclear polluted water in a scientific, safe, transparent, and negotiated manner. china is bad on japanese, the food products comes while depends making final preparations to dump nuclear contaminated water into the sea. and will this issue has raised many concerns among chinese consumers over the quality and the safety of japanese food, the director general of the u. n's, atomic watch dog raphael raw see has real lighted the release of the radio active water saying that the scientific work of the age of states shall be trusted. the agreements that we have uh, with the, with the coal and with the government of japan are permanent in the sense that as i said, the other day until the last girl. and perhaps you can be on wheels in terms of

evaluating, assessing at the, at we will be there if we see a problem, a deviation will really mediate the race. the alarm, if i can say, or talk to, to the government, talk to, to typical, i need to be for them to take the necessary decisions. one has to test the scientific work of the uh, we are new 12, we don't update sites. we look at the science, we look at the problem and we have an assessment. and then we can, we can discuss is interesting that he mentions of a trust in the scientific world that it has been reported that some scientist behind this report has dealt with some disagreements and scores. when the director general was asked about this, he simply brushed it off and did not elaborate according to a global times research center survey over 80 percent of respondents in 11 countries in the asia pacific region say that the plan is simply irresponsible. 190

percent have expressed negative sentiments over the plan and 94 percent have said that the move will have a negative effect on the whole world, not just the region itself. and it is very important also to note that some chinese sea food vendors are incomplete support of china's decisions to is, is a chinese citizen food safety is definitely of the most important for me. i would products on purchase through legitimate channels and we only sell them with the permission and the government will not sell japanese products now for in the near future anyways. issue it concerns the house of future generations. the thought, how does the c belongs to the whole world in all of humanity, the japanese release of the republican terminated border into the secret cosigner versus the pollution that i won't use to the definition of the near future. and it's not just the chinese citizens that are worried because the plan has been controversial since its announcement in 2021. we've even local japanese people also

expressing concerns over the contamination of the water. jeff and his fishing n. c. food groups have also voice their concerns about their livelihoods, as the fear that consumers would rather avoid buying their products. and from japan, we go to south korea where the plan has also prompted some south korean retailers to stockpile sea salt, which has led to a search and prices in korea. and from korea, we go to the environmental group green piece, who has long been critical of the plan itself. warranty and that the remaining radioactive materials can accumulate in the food chain and call in and said for continued long term storage. and japan has not yet specified the date to start the waste water release. but what we do know for sure is that it would take that case to complete complete. yet we cannot exactly predict the effects we will see over the next 30 or 40 years, or even in a 100 years,

even taking into account modern modeling techniques and modern computers. the earth is a very complex system. after all, and the world's oceans are large and almost completely unexplored, part of any introduction of radioactive substances require some kind of response from living organisms. we aren't going to speculate about the various looms. fish might grow. we'll leave that to the imagination. but some kind of add up taishan must take place. maybe they will become more tolerant to this increased radiation or some species may disappear. but it should be understood that the i a d. a experts have studied this question. and although some people may have suspicions about geo political motors at the moment, we have no reason not to trust that i a, as an organization. there are representatives of various countries there and researches on going to in terms of commercial patients. if they are exposed to this tritium isotope, every batch will have to be checked. i emphasize every batch and not just once a year and additional monitoring efficiency food cotton, the regional,

will have to become mandatory. the full uh, fox news hope to talk a call soon as given is 1st mainstream news interview off the he was fired by the pro coughing. dr. saying he wasn't surprised by the decision to drop him, considering how openly he's been a well for years now. expressing his opinion, but they were always very nice to me and they always let me see what it was. not one time did they tell me not to say anything. so i was always grateful to fox and i am in retrospect grateful to fox for that. so that never changed up until the moment they called me and said, you know, we're taking the show off the air and so i can only speculate, i know. but i do think as a general matter, not even about me to warn you, crane is a red line for, for a lot of people in business in politics. and you see it in our politics in the us, where the leaders of the republican party in the congress really are a pulse of in my view. we are now supporting sending cluster bombs to create that level right. now of course you will have to watch these kayla. i'm open for details

on this. caleb always good to see you. so so, so what was it all about? it? what was it the calls and it was saying that essentially got him booted off the network. well, this is tucker charles, his 1st major interview and again it he discussed as you just heard, that it appears the issue of ukraine is a red line that it is simply not acceptable and main stream media outlets in the united states to question us policy with regards to dumping huge amounts of weapons and spending hundreds of billions of dollars on weapons being sent to care. and that policy seems to be the unwritten rule by which careers rise and fall within the u. s. media outlets. now in the interview, tucker carlson also stated that while in the past he's disagreed strongly with donald trump. he does admire the fact that donald trump seems to be the only major us politician who is speaking up with regards to ukraine and questioning biden's

policy. here's one set you know, trump is the only person with stature and the republican party really, who's saying wait a 2nd, you know, why are we supporting an english warn you? crane? and everyone in washington is wrong. everyone and trump is right on that question. and it's a big question and that war is re shaping the world. is free shipping economy, the world 3 shipping populations, the queen is losing the war. obviously the united states could and ukrainians are dying and huge numbers and the countries being destroyed. and so the us could force a piece like tonight, they could me a uniquely, they have that power and they won't. and they're continuing to allow ukrainians to be killed in the country to be devastated. the refugees in that region, the number of people killed in that warming. europe will never be the same because of this war. interview with russell brands tucker carlson also spoke about immigration policy and he touched on the january 6th events the capital riot that

happened as donald trump was leaving office. he said that he spoke with capital police chief at the time, steve and son, who said that it was on dispute, that it was very clear that there were federal informants among the crowd, helping the events to go down as they did. now. it's important to note that there had been loss suits by the former employer of tucker carlson, fox news saying that he does not have the right to do interviews like this where to continue to produce episodes of his show on twitter. they argue that they own him under contract law and that you should be silenced, even though he's no longer appearing on box new. however, at the moment we see litigation continuing, but tucker carlson continues to do interviews and do his show as. busy negation goes on, fox is arguing, he doesn't have the right to continue doing interviews like this so very interesting. just see one type referrals and had to say,

this is the voice of the band from mainstream airwaves in the united states. and was wondering, yeah, well, you know, it's a very dangerous job trying to tell the truth these days. i'm pushing back on all the mainstream narratives. caleb muffin, appreciate it. see you soon. i out to the emerging multi poto world where africa or in india can cooperate to see both the very economies rise together. that's the message from india is foreign minister and bobbing on a forward a visit to the east african nation of tons in the new daily focuses on building ties with emerging economies that the global so i, laura approach to africa today is to create more of a software to invest in africa to work with us across to create capacities enough. so that the rise of africa also takes place as countries like india are rising in. they should be external affairs, minister of india is in the country of tens. and yes,

we do know that those 2 countries have had, by natural ties and have a long standing good relationship between the 2 countries. now, the minister has had a long list of an agenda during his 4 day visits to the african states. and this includes the inspect, what's the supply project in pennsylvania as well as some of the, the details of tens are near will be meeting with them. and the staff exams, the boss, as well as a restriction that will be taking place on an indian naval ship that is currently in attends in the and not the minister went on to speak of fox, the relations and the ties that the country has with india as well as his projections in terms of what he sees, what people see would be the growing of africa and tense india as a whole. we are not as an extractive economy. we are not in the manner in which a lot of other countries are they have already model economic objectives for us.

this is a broader deep partnership. do know that the relationship between india and tens, india is characterized by it's heavy infrastructure, investment, large scale projects, as well as a focus on a natural resources. and we also know that there's been a lot of training in terms of human development in the resources sick to as well as transfers in technology. now, in the as engagements in africa as a whole, include collaborations in industry such as pharmaceuticals, to the communications and renewables and the inc to sprints. and as because the software lines is one that the searching fee of putting a according to ukrainian, the prisoners of war, currently being held by russia. the also fatality and would not let them leave the battlefield even willing to shut them if they tried. the captives were allowed to see their highly sought for a long separation, and we're thankful for the opportunity of going to see their loved ones. we spoke

with a couple of the captured and soldiers who shared their stories with nothing. please consider they may well be speaking on the job. we were told to go to the territory of these off steel plants. a 1st we went there and patrolled the territory of the factory itself. then there was a bunker where the leadership of the military unit was located. and on march, 6th or 7th, the commander of the military unit said it was necessary to go to our positions. when we were asked, are you ready? i said no, i'm not ready to panic started. he left me there on the territory of the plan, so it was a bomb shelter with the leadership of the unit and a's office located. they came up to me and said, you will be engaged in the protection of the camp. the bunker was blown up. the commander ordered the chief of staff to pick up one guy. someone either shell shocked or too afraid to fight. you. tell us about your thoughts when you realize to us be and so we arrived at the factory on march 3rd. i immediately realized that

it would not and well, there were thoughts about immediately getting out of there. the guy said, no one will let you out. he's off will not let you out. they will shoot you before you reach the exits, the guys told each other that they were afraid of face off. most of them had such thoughts, especially in the 2nd half of spring. since the beginning of april, the days off was dragging everyone along with them. what do you think about what happened? how do you see a future? like i was born here and i've lived here and work here all my life. i joined the army for or stable salary because we have the same money a civilian life since then i would have stayed in civilian life, treat me normally here and they've been treating me well enough. now. did you vote for the lansky for him and he presented himself as someone's taking the places you people all believes that and thought he would restore peace and, and the consequences or whatever, thoughts that were on a rotation near me. are you both?

then when the conflict started, we move closer to my ruble. after that, when we were surrounded, communication was lost. the commanders were lost. those who could withdrew. when we left marie whipple, they detained us at the check point. they asked all your soldiers and i said i wasn't a soldier, then they figured it out. it took us to the district office. i confess there. busy been a prisoner for over a year on february 24th, the conflict started and on march 18th, i was taken prisoner. the conditions have been good enough lifted us well, it has been like this from the 3rd and read more of those stories at your unless you have any time on our website boxing don't the the.
