games and the can only consequences for ukraine, europe, and the world along war would also have consequences for u. s. foreign policy. the ability to focus on it's all the global priorities, particularly competition with china, will remain constrained as long as the words absorbing senior policy makers time and us military sources have the democratic presidential candidate, robert f. kennedy, who has said that this is no longer about humanitarian aid for the united states. but instead that the united states has turned this into a proxy war with the rock shop. we have neglected many, many opportunities to settle this war peacefully. the way that we have conducted the war is bad, so the print is terrible for the reading people, even among the current administration and bite and administration, the us national security advisor jake sullivan, has also said that the bite and none of his ration has taken risk in sending advanced weapons to claim one caricature is that the, by the ministration is sitting around, you know,

unwilling to provide things because we're worried about the russians. i think that is belie by the sheer magnitude, brett, and sophistication of the capabilities that we have provided. pressure, we have been prepared to take risk and we will continue to be prepared to take risk to provide support to ukraine. so it seems that they will do anything for them to win this conflict really. but what's even more interesting is that the former us prose president richard nixon, has sent a letter to former president bill clinton, in which he has warned about this whole situation years before in 1994. i think you will agree up to the mention of witchcraft, shoot this situation. ukraine is hardly explosive. if we allow it to get out of control, it will make boston. it looked like a tea party. it is understandable that all emphasis was on the issue of nuclear weapons. we should concentrate on what could leads to the use of these weapons. the united states keeps on problem us in more and more arms being sent to ukraine and

no matter the consequences even if it comes on the best of its own civilians. but it would be very interesting to see how this will turn out when it comes to the upcoming us elections in 2024. and despite western analysts warning against dragon, this conflict even further, it seems like all of this does not really matter to the white house. the 2nd russia i focus some is where they should instead, economic and social agendas for the coming years will kick off this thursday in some pages book and then run up to the event. we sat down with some of the people spin heading, the fines against western neo colonialism. coming up on on say we speak with the like i'm on the ground or to all of south africa's 1st block pathogens is a preview of the full interview, which you can watch later. info on wednesday. the

deluxe them and della is the founder of the time of the cal edmond dell, a foundation, which works to help disadvantaged rural communities in south africa. she oversaw medical care to the diag. nelson mandela. deluxe is now a passionate activist for women's rights. deluxe amandola is the grand daughter of the prominent active as nelson mandela. nelson mandela is a world wide, renowned anti apartheid activist who spent 27 years in prison for a legend. trees. nelson mandela was the 1st black south african president ruling over the country for 5 years. i would start by saying that people have to remember where we as a country, so that's the, comes from we, especially the, from some states. the russia has role in the liberation of the front and states can never be forgotten. so it's that's from the and also if you look at they are bricks . calibration, it is important for us to look at at the russian part because,

you know, they, the of the blogs, they've been close it aged would have been india and china, as i mentioned those to, there's a lot of, there was the buzzword with, with, within that broken the bridge calibration, but it is also important for the african continent to form, you know, economy relations. it was, it was with day with russia. and because it's only through collaboration that you can grow as, as countries and as a country. and so i believe very much, so that's, this is come at the right time for this on these to happen. the russia ask, look at summit gathers heads of state as the business community in an effort to promote relations between the continent and russia. i can't goal of the form is to facilitate more solution based approaches to food shortages. nigeria has a major stake in the discussion in the country is vice president will look to address the west african states food inflation, which is at its highest level in a decade. we spoke with the co chairman of the you advocate, business task force,

summit squared, per se, is russia ends $92.00 where you have plenty of common ground. and i think your show has a lot of mileage deeper relationship with my you're going to be able to get to where 2 people of west africa all 450 new young people. and as well as also have a really strong who would make sure i've done business with them and do that before, but it wasn't a good one to write to him about. so i think it'd be nice to, you've got 3 student beeson that stuck golf to what it be doing dollars from 90 to end of up to this was too late in the day for one of the top to for to use. i think it would be good for a shot to take that board by deform and do a government development piece. and this time cleared. i'll talk to there's a lot that they can do to make sure that the russia have the rule. i want to get some of these vice versa, you know, kind of expect to both countries. they can expect also got an export to them. and

then we have them. if we can also do colors to swap which would be very use me, boil manta glasses, which we have done with china, with me to easily reduce the pressure that we're a $140.00, no delays getting the columbia into says that the price for which is so why beyond, you know, there's a lot more that we can do which rush hour cents, but it's going to columbia right? terms of true but it's rich, right? as the brakes countries explore the trend of the dollar. why is ation the possibility of a new calling car in unsafe? the blokes members remains open. according to the south african foreign minister. the time could be up for discussion that the group so much in johanna is but next month, or say correspondents, any pets rank of this year when the grand gathering of the leaders of breaks nations is happening in africa from johannesburg. to be precise,

rumors have it that the groups could really be ready to surprise the world with something big, possibly as big as making the very 1st steps towards introducing a brand new common currency for the family. just think of the size of the family for a moment. brazil, russia, india, china, and south africa. don't forget our route, 40 nations that have shown the desire to join the block, not so fast. even if johannesburg becomes the starting point for the new break currency, that's one of the ideas pitched for the name by journalist. by the way, you have to realize that the process is very long and challenging. there are quite a few things that could potentially go wrong after all, it's politics and in the ever changing world. geography of the brakes family may actually be a disadvantage just as much as it is a benefit. but regardless of how promising and how realistic the plans for the new

currency are such movements within the block or a symptom, some of the biggest nations on this planet don't want to buy and sell using the us dollar. even without the common currency. the use of the national currencies and frayed with then the brakes group has been picking up pace as a bricks family. we have discussed along with a new development bank, the potential use of alternative currencies to the current internationally traded currencies. i'm looking at how we can strengthen the arm of the brakes development bank and also ensure that we do not become victims of sanctions that have secondary effects on countries that have no involvement in issues that have led to those unilateral sanctions. you may say that brazil, for instance, isn't really under the threat of sanctions of you never know. but anyway, just have a listen to what their president recently said about the greenback every night ask myself why all the countries have to base the trade on the dollar. why can we trade

down wrong occurrences? who was that? decided that the dollar was the car itself to the disappearance of the goal standard. the dealer is ation is not a met. it's. it's real. and as a brakes, countries are pioneers in it. while trying to in brazil, only reached a deal to trade in their own currencies in spring this year. a vast majority of trade cash flow between russia and china, for example, is in you want, and that's what this serves as a great example for the rest of the world. other smaller nations that want you to business with the states, the break family are following suit earlier this month. for example, the not an air ma'am, or it's agreed to use local currencies for cross border transactions with india. and these are only a few examples of such star ditching. so that friend is more than obvious and impossible to deny. the intrigue is how far and how quickly though, the brakes family members are prepared to go in and now seeing real game changing

initiatives like the new common currency. well, i'll tell you will of course be covering the russia african summit in st. petersburg later this week. we'll bring to old, the very latest updates i do join us about the now guys, russian african calling for instance, and petersburg brings up several important issues related to russia's presence on the continent. is well now you're very near their electra from make it to and you'd invest in 10 years. they said west. the west push is hypocritical. agenda. ignoring africa needs was russian. we thought to become bossing food in security, sending grading to africa and people because those feelings, the importance of relevance in terms of both being clear in the changing one folder, but also capable of shipping this new one for the, the changes happening to be

a no cutting at a time when advertisements experience significant changes since the $96.00. so i think russian of the con, particularly the machine is one that can be informed by both the historical experiences, but also the understanding of what the future has to offer and what the future has to offer. and this is is number one because we are heading to one towards a month to pull up international on the so in some of the uni paula, we have one come to me needs the dimension of the system. but this one we have model and each is within this new international structure that efforts on russia. we have space to cooperate. unfortunately, we have seen, i mean, if you come out from another problem, it's under here. what people say about africa. how much the head of buffalo, particularly those width of countries, you may see that because they see a big shell of 12, the gd piece. but if you look at the amount of money they spend,

for example, you know, for gonna spend $1.00 to $1.00 in ukraine, the latest as a motor or just spend $100.00. b gets africa 50 for them to 2 different one received only 52000000000. so what is happening is a case of double speak and simple, fishy, with on 100 percent, africa needs to be head. between that title is available. people choose to focus against support, so i think is not really given the kind of attention it deserves. the announcement of the russian president to send greens get off about is important because a lot of food insecurity. but as we say, the structure of the international system is unjust, and i think that's what makes meaning of them just for support. a change in the cutting fast is status quo, addressing the intellectual assist the bribery allegation surrounding us president, finding the rising to the level of an impeachment inquiry as according to us,

how speak of kevin mccarthy now says another public scandal has about to do. i have a bite in the family as fast as he's in for my son, hunter reported they sold his out. what so one of the most influential democratic party contributes is a tease way to blow evidence investigates. it appears. it's just the way that it's in the bite and family. sawgrass well, hunter has made headlines recently for the federal investigation into his business dealings. he has apparently been keeping himself busy, pursuing a career in art and has earned an estimated $1300000.00 selling has worked since 2021. now, one of the buyers, according to business insider, was elizabeth hersch, naphtali, a real estate investor who's also been investing in both the democratic party and joe biden's own campaign. now, just 8 months after 100 biden's 1st art show, now tally was appointed by joe biden. to the commission for the preservation of american heritage abroad in july 2022. so now the question becomes,

did natalie invest in 100 biden's art before or after her promotion? and did the president break one of his own campaign, promises well tickle us to do what he said back in 2019. but i will do the same thing we did in our administration between personal and private and the human scale. speaking of scandals, the republican led house of representatives is still investigating hunter biden, and the prosecutor who scored the president's son not likely deal is expected to testify before congress and the coming months. but instead of focusing on that scandal, the mainstream media seems more interested in going after the character of the 2 iris whistle blowers who smoke out about 100 biden's case. then there's their treatment of jo biden's rival for the democratic nomination. robert f. kennedy junior. the media has been quick to criticize him with kennedy himself,

noting that the allegations against the biden's are troubling. yet he seems to be the one who's targeted by the process or, you know, i, it's, uh, it's interesting to me because i haven't really, you know, swam, i don't ways that i think is on present any even more than and then president trump was lambs by the main street by the corporate media, somehow the american people are hearing what i'm saying. i don't know whether it's through the bad guys that through social media. now the lesson learned from this appears to be that those are either or the vitamins or give money to the biden's or in the clear when it comes to both the media and even the d o j. but those who dare to challenge the violence aren't even given a shot, as is being made clear as the 2024 presidential race is just getting started. it's not something that all my god, my son such an embarrassment. it appears that the buying family was all in on it. the congress as a leg, 2 witnesses that there had been transfers of huge sums of money from adversarial

countries to l. l. c's corporations, the buyers and family members have set up or had set up for them, and they didn't offer anything in return. in other words, they don't have a business, they don't have a product, they just get the money. this is just another in the long line of nonsense and, and, and improprieties and a leg, 0 legalities that the jo by man is on, are involved in. and it's just a piling up. and as you pointed out at the beginning, this is leading apparently to impeachment inquiry. now there been lots of impeachment inquiries over the over the couple of 100 years. and congress doesn't always lead to impeachment. and you don't need one to impeach for president. but nonetheless, i think that, that taking the 1st step, and i think from what we've learned that so far and what we are going to learn from further testimony, i think there's

a chance that joe biden will be in peach to me multinational. well, he's on the through, it was the statement made by the south african administer in presidency during the opening remarks on day 2 of the bricks. national security advisors need say, your 1st of all the points about the significance of that for a month. this agenda. and the expense and love that was submitted in the presidency of south africa ministers. have any outlining and pointing to the discipline. i'll put you on time for the breaks members,

but also for the friends of a breaks, which includes countries such as the ruse ruined the 2 box at egypt as well as saudi arabia and the united arab emirates. these are some of the countries that are particularly interested in exploring the membership of the opportunities with in the briggs club. one of the te tell us with regards to this year's issue has been the exclusion of russia following this thing since on that country. and following the ukraine war last year, the brakes club has really slow but around russia and really presented this as an opportunity to get a little tentative view and to be realized and multi polar. well, among the issues that will be discussed again, they will be discussing the issue or rather seeing it out because this would be a complicated issue. the issue of emerging with a consensus around

a coverage for the brakes nation. already the groups nations have been reducing the reliance on the door law as they said, amongst themselves, and opportunity to use the home currency to, to have a better exchange with them. but, but not only that, to have a weakened america in a sense that america has often use the lot as a cetera is you agree with them. and it's just, it's if you disagree and that has really left many, one of these in, in dire straits and the, the minutes, the gm in the sense of any, was really outlining the fact that more countries now it says, depend, demik have been in what looking and not so much out to attend, but this has been done at the detriment of the rest of the world in order to save themselves. and that's gonna be a vision for a future world. and it cannot be a vision that the brakes club subscribes to where you'll find all the very latest.

well, these are the days on plenty more on the website to all t don't. com. as always we appreciate your company. thank you for choosing audience nice. the city grow and land has developed. the problem is presented. how do we protect our nature and the unique animals that live here? this is the cause of nature reserve where they are cultivating and innovative program to release into the wild bunch on thomas vision and vision. and today we're on the mountains of the,

on the welcome to the part where scores have long pointed out that having the united states as a security came back a test to create a hold of moral hazard for its allies. cool, open become joe politically inflated and more resistant to a compromises piece proposal. when it comes to the war in ukraine. is washington even interested in peace? well, to discuss that, i'm now joined by david time, a former us army combust arms officer and the military affairs commentator. mr. pine is great to talk to thank you very much for your time. thank you so much revenue in your show. now i know that in addition to your notes or career and analysis, you are also an avid historian and you read

a lot of history books on the passion of yours began at the tender age of 11. if i'm not mistaken. and the conclusion that you derive from all of that is that the most worth of the united states has bought or has supported, made it less secure. do you think the war in ukraine is going to be the exception? no, no, not at all. in fact, it may be one of the greatest examples of making us less secure. i mean, us national security interest, obviously, 1st and foremost is to preserve the great power piece with russia in china. and the way to do that or is, is uh through uh, pursuing diplomatic because she had a compromise agreements much as much as rushes proposed am i, i might know um and, and not to pursue uh, you know, these uh escal ever escalating proxy words such as uh, the bite industry, shes privily pursuing against russian. you, craig, and national security interest,

just like here they are in the eyes of the beholder is and i've heard many, a russian uh list suggests that for the americans, the, when your brain is a very sweet deal. you, you mentioned the proxy war and it's actually a fairly well developed military doctrine that sees a war on the foreign land as a, as an acceptable. and in fact, uh, you know, genius, a change or a genius alternative for the kinetic, for the actual kinetic conflicts in which the united states would have to lose money on soldiers. so why would they even abandon this? we deal when they can counter the nuclear adversary. through funding war in the ukraine and also sending a powerful my message to another adversary. i'm talking about china here to well, i think there's a lot of unforeseen debt on sides or, or i guess not, not so much. i proceeded, but a little mention downsize to us, the involvement of the warranty trade. and one of the biggest ones, of course,

is the unilateral disarmament conditional assortment of us military us military has been sending vast amounts of high tech weapon systems. precision guided munitions, you know, both rocket launch systems to ukraine and these are weapons that we would need in order to fight. and uh, i mean, to find a fight, a war with like a great power such as china, for example, a little low when such a war. so, but more importantly, i think the greatest threat that the u as a bonus is accomplishing is that it's increasing the chances of a cyber e a b, or nuclear exchange with the russian federation. and that's, that's what we're, we don't want to fight because it's a war that could result in mass of destruction on both sides. now, this is actually a very interesting observation of yours, that the united states itself is left without a modern weaponry. and maybe that's due to the call kit calculation,

that it would not have to face the battle with either russia in china. and in fact, i have heard the number of russian, the very respect that the russian military analyst, such as the one of the reasons why the united states allows itself to behave in such a way. uh, in relation to both of these countries is the loss of fear and the loss of these basic life assuring uh, feeling on this planet. because if you're, if you're actually allows us to, you know, see the danger and try to preventive. do you see any truth to that that the united states has become fearless? yes, absolutely. and that's one of the main problems i think with us for a policy and national security policy is that we no longer have the fear of if you the war to largest. i mean, the, as i were laughter with the previously, as i were left here and here in america, has now become the problem or left over like warning potential nucular war, world war with the russian federation. and it is, you know,

things that kind of change psyched and service, such as myself or not, i would say anti or, but we're very averse to these massive risks such as we're undertaking with the, you know, potential world war with russia. it's completely unnecessary. and there is no u. s. strategic national security interest, and you created all, i would say there was no interest us interest in ukraine. whereas it's a very vital interest for the russian federation that ukraine be restored to a neutral buffer state. uh, separated it from uh, from nato countries. now, you mentioned, uh you describe yourself as a, as a conservative. and i wonder if there has indeed been a change of paradigm in the american strategic and security. thinking from seeing a war as a sort of a means of geo politics. the continuation of vegetables is by other means. but something that you do at the last resort to we're seeing more as simply a way of doing business in this day and age. how's the war become more acceptable

to them? merrick and security and military establishment? well, i think there's a huge disconnect to the next question. there's a huge disconnect between the american people and our leaders. i mean, we have someone like saturday or settlement minority leader. mitch mcconnell, who is in stated that the number one, the most important issue is i was looking for a new brand new in general. and that's a huge disconnect. no one, no one america in america really feels that we are very few, a percentage wise. we have much more important concerns, domestic concerns, obviously the trust from china, which is the highlighted by the, the chinese here ship incursions, which we've recently shot down. so a lot of the british more important issues then. then you create a new create as a country, as a country, half a world away from united states of where is it, neighbor is a neighbor of russia. and so we need to need to support an immediate peace

deal with russia and ukraine ceasefire and or, or was disagreement along with the current lines of control. and then we connect the 2 ways to include neutrality for you create as well outside of data. now everything before the, during the entire cold war, america was led by foreign policy are released from truman to bush, who understood the inherent limits and constraints of the years power. but for the last couple of decades with the only exception of trump is been left by people who believe that the united states not only can but perhaps, should interfere a very vividly very of noxious way. sometimes in both rushes and chinas and affairs. is there anything that most co and basing can do to disabuse these people off of that very yeah. offensive and very dangerous notion that well

that's, that's a really good question. i don't really know the answer that because you know each each i think you're super power has a square of impulse. whether we americans like to can see that or not we, we always can see in our own square of applause that being the western hemisphere. but we rarely accorda the sphere of influence to russia and china. but it's, it's a simply a fact that rush to china also a joyce who has been close and us, it's us meddling and military intervention. i will include orange shipments to countries within rushes and transfer of it serves meant loans that are causing unnecessary conflicts and increased risk to world war 3 of and in terms of how attorneys and russian leaders can, can, can try to change or for policy. and i mean, that's an answer. i'm afraid i don't, don't have an answer to right can. i can at least try and try to help us understand the psychology of the us decision makers because i'm sure the military intelligence

community knows that at least the russia has the kinds of weapons that can inflict the norm is damage to the united states. the few guys at this point of time have no defense against despite obese per trail of a present pollutant. as a, you know, as a psychopath, as this gets a frantic, as an, a rational person, is a calculation that he will be, you know, say, is saying there and wiser than that he will be, in fact more responsible and not to start the new kind of weren't even if he's pushed to the limit the most as pricing thing that i, that i assume about present food and his behavior. and of course, if this worries that he's a profoundly rational actor, he's a shout, amazing restraint in the face of massive by western provocations. that doesn't mean i agree with the russians invasion of you, craig, i absolutely don't, but we need to cease to go. um, i wrote an article recently in the national interest in which i stated with the american needs to have more strategic.
