ethiopian prime minister ahead of the much anticipated russia africa summit. us and the president of the island nation of coal morals has touched down in russia with more african leaders expected before. the 2nd, russia, africa summit takes off this thursday in st. petersburg, bilateral economic and political goals for the coming years are on the agenda for the meetings. the russian president has a dress participants and guess a head of the summit, pledging to do everything possible to help it prosper. today, advocates increasingly asserts in itself as one of the pose of the emerging multiple world. russia supports the desire of african states for social, economic stability and progress. it is important that in recent years, our top ration with africa has reached a new level. we intend to further develop it, and of course, we'll continue to fully assist our african partners in strengthening national and

cultural sovereignty in their more active participation in southern regional and global issues. in st. petersburg, where vladimir potent is expected to meet a number of african leaders on the day before the russia africa summit begins the russian president also wrote an open letter to the participants of this summit saying that wishing them success in further developing mutually beneficial cooperation between nations. and also welcoming them to russia and to this summits . now, this is the 2nd to ever russia africa summit, and it's expected to be much larger than the last one. actually, we've got 17 heads of state and representatives from 49 different countries expected to attend. and a lot of those representatives are also members of inter governmental organizations like the african union and the east african communities. so we've got a long list of high profile attendees expected to participate in the summit. and we were also expecting vladimir putin to address the entire summit on july 28th. and

that's expected to be focused on international relations as well as the emerging multi polar world. so this is really a series of events that our viewers should really keep an eye on because we're going to be there. and we're going to be covering those events as they take place. the official cake office still to come, but r t has already spoken to several headliners of the summit in an exclusive interview, south african foreign minister and the live be pandora, has stress. the continent is at a turning point and is becoming a major global power by overcoming it's neo colonial legacy. you can find this and other hot topics and full version of the interview throughout the day. but here's a short preview. the relationship that has been built up over many years between africa and russia. so very important relationship for us, particularly south africa, given the role that the people of russia played. you know, struggle for freedom from time to time in the united nations has been used for

political. it's a, it's been made the weapon by some against i was we have to end that. and i think having a diversity in its structures and make them isms allowing for democratic processes . i think it's his time that i'll come to them to realize that it has the possibility of being an extremely powerful part of the world. and we need to be for more in control of our own capabilities, our resources, and we should manage them to the interest of the african continent and not have this notion that we owe someone something because that's the neo colonial ideal. so i think we need to begin to understand our own power and to use it to good effect flatfoot. even those who claim to be friends have

really exploited the results of the continent. and, you know, colonialism was about mineral resources was about extraction, but to no one, no oppressor will change the situation of oppression. it is you who are oppressed, who must change it. so i think we need to develop a different relationship with our resources, manage themselves, develop the ability to be innovative, use partnership such as a partnership, us with you, or the united states or russia for our interests, and not the interest of us. we need to have great to fitness in world trade and we need to ensure getting that financial assistance and institutions. i'm not putting that to sized to a level that they become

a battery. yeah. a to trait. so having a greater diversity is extremely important, because once you attach to one car and c o one system, you then become somewhat of a hostage. and that's what we've go to and we have to have fit trade, purpose systems, financial security. but you can be tied to one, and the moment is probably now to consider alternatives. foreign ministers all is a secret that back process. now, um, i think that to, you know, the world is i to worry movement and i, i don't want to on the play a, the threat that faces us as the global community. if we're unable to resolve current challenges in the run up to the event, our t also set down with a number of prominent figures coming up. we speak with south african diplomats, no much them up dumble whose parents were prominent anti apartheid activist. here's

a preview of the interview, which you can watch in full throughout the day on our t. you know, my time to time though is a prominent south african diplomat who served in european countries such as italy, malta, and albania. no, my tempered combo is a member of the international women's forum. supporting women leaders around the globe. number attend the tumble is the daughter of oliver combo and adelaide time though oliver tambo was a prominent anti apartheid leader and served as president of the african national congress for 24 years. johannesburg airport was named in his honor. adelaide tumble was well known for her role in the struggle against apartheid. she was awarded south africa's highest honor adelaide combo, served as

a member of the country's parliament for 5 years. the interest of each country is for the best moment of best citizens. what we're trying to do now is the a you, is to say that we have to find ways where what happens with in us is more important than what happens outside of us. we determine ourselves, we need to be more interest spec to maybe we need to decides that wonderful to have relationships with other countries. but we need to say african solutions, african problems, not wisdom solutions for african problems when present around the plaza with was jeff s. m a z a, they did a wonderful change agreement which is continental the pace. and that allows us to change with each other without all the red tape that has historically been that and it seems to be holding it seems to be holding. so if we can keep that kind of momentum going, there's no reason to, to why we can't find ourselves in

a position where the wealth that is generated in africa stays in africa. i spoke earlier with new what goal and african political analysts who says the west has little to do with africa and only henders. it's development. the reason that advocates thought communion, the same and fox, what it's independence and freedom is to arrive at this point to make a decision for its own self to choose part. there's that on line with african states of vision, ford very respective develop vince, their respective interest. and it's no longer about, you know, a found down to the colonials who had suppressed and robbed and literally just fretful. the advocates for from truly developing and reaching is potential, the human tends to insert itself in situations,

especially in developing in space like on the continent to further extent in the west and agenda. an ideology and western ideology don't necessarily work for everyone. everyone must create policies, they must implement policies that work for each and every respect in african space . there are 55 states sovereign space on the continent. and then there's the umbrella that hovers over an entire continent imposing policies that don't work, not one single wisdom policy has worked in africa r t. we'll be covering the russia africa summit in st. petersburg this week. and we'll have all the latest updates for you. stay to the

during talks with president or the one and on kara, palestinian leader mahmoud abbas lambasted israel's actions in palestinian territories as well as the international. lots of action on the issue. so how much of a is know they were facing and extreme right wing is really government, but 6 with oil it's my to destroy would remain. so the foundations of the political process to deliberate and planned racist and colonial practices see of the pal single laser. she has taken many decisions aimed at protecting our legitimate national rights in the shadow of an unprecedented international silence and inability to hold this occupation accountable for his crimes against our people and our sanctity. there are a 1000 resolutions in the united nations, which i'm not one of which has been implemented for us. right now. palestinian president obama a boss met his turkish counterpart in the capital city of uncut on turkey on

tuesday to discuss a number of regional issues. most importantly is the israel and palestine conflicts rigid side are the ones that dots of the that his government will continue to support the palestinian people as well as the palestinian cause that there are a great deal of turkish n g o is that are in line waiting and providing a great deal of humanitarian aid, but continued to emphasize on one very important points of risk, respect to the conflict in palestine. and that is up to you when's resolutions must be implemented peterson dos in it for a long time. the police, the an issue has not receive the attention. it deserves sunday genoalvi international community. it is important that the international community, especially the united nations, strongly engages, seem to pull the city and the sheet to key or will continue increase in solidarity with the posting and people, and giving support to the post and costs in the strongest way. now this resolution that was suggested in 1967 drew very specific lines and borders for a 2 state solution. of course, the deal was not implemented over the years. now,

there hasn't been a great deal of development with respect to how turkey is going to be mediating this possibility, or even a probability of a solution with respect to this conflict. we do know that the turkish process that is going to be meeting the is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu. and sometime either later this year, you were supposed to meet him sometime this week, but because of some health issues that was delayed and postpone, but the present, the posted in present also made an important russian president vladimir putin as meeting now with the opium prime minister ahead of the much anticipated russia africa summit. that's how the listen country russia, the

here's the prime minister meeting with president food ahead of the much anticipated russia africa summit. they will be discussing the situations between africa and russia, and we will be listening in and giving you an update later on the and just one month remains before one of the major events on the international arena. the 15th break summit,

which will take place in johannesburg. the summit will reportedly consider the creation of a bricks, currency, as well as an alternative exchange mechanism. we discuss the prospects of those developments with a panel of experts. briggs now of the box creating a single currency that don't, don't arise the entire information into the action was this initiative that we have among the bricks. it's fine to make it easier between companies to be able to today, to among each other without using i didn't that i shouldn't come into the car and see for the dollar interaction. so it has been limited to some degree under the globalization by the fact that the single currency back on the route of actions were happening to the tune of 88 percent by the us government and the for the us government susie and function size. uh, $10000000.00 of international relations has to be found for

a solution for many companies. why do you think it's important that the projected bricks currency be based in gold rather than a different monetary unit? but i think, you know, there is a general consensus that the us has abused the money printer. it's major advantage has been its ability to print as many dollars as we shoes out of see that . and i think the bricks community of nations is saying to itself, whoops, let's get that. so more stable and russian president vladimir poon, is meeting now with the opium prime minister ahead of the much anticipated russia africa summit. let's have a less than i only remember to live with distinguished pregnancy that russia and i see here a couple of piano is says, oh, is considered a few of the continued as an important country on the african country. and it was the 1st african state with which russia established diplomatic links, 125 years ago. and recently we celebrate that the state was more today.
