agent is considered to be one of the greenest pages in the history of mankind. the head of the brakes bang said there were no obstacles for developing countries to make payments and national currencies. as president putin stresses that the dollar is being used as a political told the south african president 0 run last thursday. arrived in russia on the eve of his summits in saint petersburg. we speak with south africa's foreign minister. he says, be confident left me feeling this legacy of neo colonialism time. that all continental airlines that has the possibility of being an extremely powerful part of the world. and we need to be form or in control of our

incapability. our resources must go lashes out that london full, preventing a ukrainian freeze from addressing the un security council about kids cracks down on the orthodox church as nice as presidential the blocks government buildings of the nation's capital, as elite as office confirms and attempted to think it will be dealt with unless the rebels come to the us census. the a will welcome. this is all the international with the very latest world news update is good to have you with us. on the eve, all of the russia, as like a summit in some pages, but the adoption presidents has praises countries. relations with mosca. during his talks with friends in posen up to 5 to i'll susie emphasize the importance of biological projects saying that they are bound to take both countries to new levels

of progress to we intend to take our relations to the horizons that we deserve. the end of course, as you noted mister president, the fundamental project of our cooperation is the el de bon nuclear power plant. another point is the creation of a russian industrial zone. allow me mister president's to note this special nature of our relations that bind our country's vladimir, put in just wrapped up a number of high level meetings with leaders of the multi polar world. the most recent one was with the egyptian president, and the 2 leaders discussed joins plans for the construction of a nuclear power station, egypt. the diction president also mentioned some other plans that the egyptian government is looking forward to is specifically the creation of a russian industrial zone in the country. and he also talked about a number of other plans that he'd like to talk more in detail with the russian president in close talks. now vladimir putin also met with the head of the new

development bank, which is the multinational development bank, connected to the bricks organization. and vladimir putin talked a lot about how this organization is really going to be at the forefront of economic development for the multi polar world. and he said it's needed now more than ever, especially when the united states is trying to use the dollar as an economic weapon to, into these conditions. this is not easy to do. i mean, what is happening in the world of finance, or rather the use of the dollar is an instrument of political struggle. the members of organization breaks. they're not friends against anyone. they work in each other's interests, the prime minister of ethiopia, and he welcomed him to russia and also said that he's looking forward to continue the long history of warm relations between russia in ethiopia that really go all the way back to when ethiopia became the 1st country on the african continent to establish official diplomatic relations with russia. the russian president went

over a number of indication ends on how this partnership is deepening between the 2 countries . like the fact that trade turn over between the 2 countries has grown by 56 percent since last year. and russia is also working to increase the quotas for students who are looking to study in the russian federation from ethiopia each year . so that's basically a run down of these talks that vladimir putin has had with high level officials from the multi polar world. and based on what was discussed, it looks like a lot is set to come out from the meanwhile, south african president obama service that has arrived in russia with more african leaders expected to attend. but some is kicking off of this thursday and an exclusive interview to also the south african foreign minister and the lady. pandora has stressed that the confidence is moving on from its neo colonial pulse. and is that a ton important to become a major global power? he's a preview of the interview, which you can watch info right now on the website of com. 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 in the struggle for freedom. from time to time. 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 is time that all continent realize that it has the possibility of being an extremely powerful part of the world. and we need to be formally 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 our 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 press that 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 with you, or the united states or russia for all interest,

and not the interest of others. we need to have great offenders in world trade and we need to ensure getting that financial assistance and institutions. i'm not putting those 2 sized to a level that they become a battery. yeah. a to trait. so having 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 got. and we have to have fed trade, proper 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. so that fact bosses know, um i think that to, you know, the world is i to worry movement. and i, i don't want to under play uh, the threat that faces us as the global community,

if we're unable to resolve current challenges. chris, at long as the coach has african diplomacy at the university of to how this book says that africa kind of post will be built that hopefully relationships with the west, which use his thoughts as his main diplomatic tool. the 49 all 50 far it's difficult states. yes, certainly billy jason's all being that not all of them will be a head of state level. these is very significant. even though colonialism has in the, formally, the best, the, just in the relations with the colonial pauls. but of course, america is that will be the power factor, but it certainly be in people's phone. the origins will continue. and so that's a good particular um for

a long time it's international relations continued to be relations with the countries it had to be about the yes, namely wisdom balls, deb solutions with the, the government here. and so therefore there's work very hard to reach out east woods as well as the south america and even the caribbean. and that's what the, what it means symbolically show that the relations with the west is not the same author relations over the countries relations. but what it means impenetrable terms, you cannot depend so much. i am one of the live, especially a bodily need rest impulse deputies on condition americans that believes him struggling to withhold resources everytime the disagreements

and then run up to the event to us. he sat down with a number of permanent figures coming up. we speak with human rights activist on daughter of the 1st president of independent mozambique, just seeing that the mac. how is a preview of the and it's interview, which you can also watch in full throughout the day. who are not the a gina z, i a marshal. she is a prominent fighter for human rights, who gives a voice to gender based violence survivors in 2020. justina michelle made the bbc list of the top 100 influential women in the world. she's the daughter of sonora and russia national. nelson mandela is her stepfather, samara michelle is a former leader of the most and beacon socialist party. and the 1st president of independent mozambique, tragically, died in 1986 in a plane crash during his presidency. russia, michelle is

a former chancellor at the university of cape town and a current member of the africa progress panel. she is the only woman in modern history who's been the 1st lady of 2 countries. nelson mandela is a world wide, renowned anti apartheid activist who spent 27 years in prison for a legend. trees. and nelson mandela was the 1st black south african president, ruling the country for 5 years. we always need to be involved in dialogue and it doesn't matter in which part of the world we are. and it's important also to create to take away the issue of bipolar politics. right. and it's included in the world because this, this situation right now in 2023 inputs, everybody in this world. and so it's important to continue to say, what can we do? how do we participate, how we part of this human family above everything. i'll tell you,

we'll be covering the russia african summit in st. petersburg this week, and we'll have all the latest updates for you. stay tuned. the, as the us continues to use brutal functions against the various countries, these nations have started to come together to find a way out asia, the african on the loss of the american states. and now looking to join groups like breaks on the shanghai corporation organization in hopes of escaping western economic pressure. many of these countries based comprehensive american sanctions on that economic and military sexes. according to the us treasury department reports when he's back in 2021, 9000 individuals and companies have been sanctioned worldwide. and in 2022, russia became washington's main target. was $2500.00 entities,

including companies and individuals, functions by the us. and even some of washington so called friends, i've also felt the heavy hand of the american restrictions, the latest being india and took. yeah. for the cooperation with russia, political expos, from syria and iran, told us that the countries are now seeking to minimize the damage from sanctions. the cards to slide you, ron has spaced deeply, hostile and the largest behavior by the united states actually has been many forms and practices including hundreds of sanctions that have been imposed, targeting not only the space, the garments, but also the ordinary citizen is ends both. there's no small part of hesitation that these factions have damaged the economy and the new run restaurants. you bob and isabella and other countries. but that to something matter of the same time is that it's paved the way for opening up new brands new to rejected. these new

approaches for these countries, and simultaneously it's late or the to nature of us foreign policy or the world. and now is that you, rod, or in his days has opened a new front in a view front in his foreign policy. most of the leaders in the world, in golden goods, especially in the south of the world, especially in brakes and hi organization. they all talk about those actions, such as is not a sign of the 2 nights. this is a very strong county. it's a sign of weakness of united states because if you would like to says, cannot leave a normal diplomacy and cannot find a win win situation with many of the accounts in the world. it means that united states as a problems which is delegation, which holds the human security council presidency this month has broke. so you

training and priest from addressing the well, both to the clergyman has been stripped off his ukrainian citizenship and is now being induced by mosca. which was him too briefly, he was about tips projects down on the orthodox church. he's on russia has reacted to london's decision to silence the priest. but it sounds good so suitable and also to exclude your mention of bishop good deal. fell under the rank of bridges. censorship had already saw for the offices. she spoke to the members of the security council. last time she was banned from entering the european union, which by the way, portrays itself as a champion of freedom of speech and religion. now there are trying to thoughts of all the bishop get them from discussions and the security council, the protest against the you case attempt to call so far as speaker from participation and disagree with the account. so despite the fact that the case of only meets all the criteria that is because it has the competence on the issue on the agenda, will not speak of the next 118 of this. so i'm not sure was this to the united

nations security council met to discuss the issue of the persecution of the orthodox church in ukraine. now russia presented quite a bit of evidence and facts about what is taking place. and the only response of the western countries was to accuse russia of russia. now a 50 page report has been presented by russia. documenting all kinds of crimes against the russian orthodox church and against the orthodox church in ukraine. crimes such as the confiscation of church property, the arresting of clergy, etc. however, the western countries seem unconcerned about it and simply focus on demonizing, russia. here's what the russian deputy ambassador had to say before the council, analogous spoken with each box to give me the run, no equivalence to such a cynical act and more than history. how would the united states, for example, react if the president of the united states suggested that congress should bound the catholic church and see saint patrick's cathedral in new york on the ground

that the catholics of bay, the pope, and the rest one of the card and most of the roman catholic church and the noise of states, or do you know it took into them, arrested one of the leaders of the muslim community and the bridge for them and discussed a bill to band this religion in the country under the pretext the difference of islam. mac can medina, is it difficult for you to imagine such a picture? it's difficult for us to. it looks more like a ball. it's of a science fiction movie. but unfortunately in ukraine, this scary movie with the content on southwest and sponsored us of the key of redeem is becoming a reality before i some of the city. and just these same western powers that frequently talk about religious freedom and accused countries. they don't like of violating the rights of religious minorities. we're excited about what russia presented to the council, about the real crimes being committed against the orthodox church and ukraine. the jazz presidential office has confirmed a co attends by the presidential gods,

unconcerned report. so the nation's leader is trapped in his office, refusing to resign. governmental authorities say they're ready to confront the rebels. it is wednesday morning, elements of the presidential guard engaged in an end to republican movement and tried in vain to obtain the support of the national armed forces and the national guard. the army and the national guard are ready to attend the elements of the presidential guard involved in this and rest, if they don't come to their senses. who has been condemned by regional allowances such as the applicant union and who said that they will know tolerates and attempts to over to our democracy in the region. we spoke to the local journalist at loos, that mohammed ali who purchased details about the unfolding situation. i dealt with minnesota so sir natalie data near a bit, especially on the said the situation is still going through with the presidential palace. there is nothing coming in or out. but the thing there is something that is in the research, and actually the president is still under god. well trying to do with it the and we

do have to subject yourself and we start this. i think the data people assumed by the president buzzing is not like what she has reason to do. people don't need to. i'm just did everything from this. if there's a, this is a person in me that i need coming back to this. i also found out i'm not happy with what he's doing or send me that or need to understand the things that he has to step down and do want to take over and then to do in the way that the new job. ready with time to ask you what to do, there's nothing official coming out from the government has submitted this manual to send a statement. they say is there has to be this people who are trying to take the file or they have to maintain. they have to kind of do their work says otherwise the national dogs and army will go to them, then then disappears. there's no disparity, let's say that they're supposed to be immediately. so we're going to move this. i had also what do you so that i'm able to come through this like any data. these are

centers on the remainder of the one to, to see the window is below starts with different, i'm sorry, i've been with them. so this is the people who need the contest in a long time ago and they wanted to see the status. we'd need it on the 1st bill. the middle will be very fathers. so wanted to be like monday i'm looking for so on other countries that they wanted to be going to be the file from the rest of the day in the evening of new jessica women. and there is some things happening in the dead. people that don't seem and would send slips that would settle for us. so these are some of these. um, if i'm trying to buy them to step down because they're, where's the best way to be heading is more nothing. the ways that the painting i'm in and then i'm done with and that's people don't want to go have a massive russian missile garage as opposed to the being lower. she gain super ins, military infrastructure across a large parcel of the country. several walk hits also to have hit the ground

facilities used by t ups armed forces to military fields have reported it being damaged as well as come on the, on the control centers in west and ukraine local media. so let's just say dozens of military size and being hit in several regions. rush allegedly on the states hypersonic resolves which are supposed to be impossible to. and just that's why you frame size defenses was not yet commented on these reports. but russian officials have previously stressed that only military facilities on targets and such strikes the memo, the chief of the cranes security service. the s b u has publicly boasted about cabbage responsibility for last year's foaming of the crime. the in bridge. these have are as hot killed for russian civilians, but the ukrainian official showed no, we're most se bracket about his agencies roles and the 4 me the, this is one of our achievements. i mean,

the destruction of the crime in bridge on october 8th, last year. as you can see, my colleague has a matching t shirts today last year with the, with the bridges. first of all of the last day, ukraine was out with a postage stamp of the bridge, sewing it being attacked and attacked according to what they had expected to incur their attempts to deny it, or just sell a meaningless crate is really made no effort to hide its role in carrying out this attack, part of the reason that the ukraine is being so forthright about it. now. it has no other accomplishments to point to the, you know, they're, they have this counter offensive underway is failing at every turn. so to now come out and to announce take credit for what happened a year ago. west is lawless. they make great fanfare about international rules. ready rules international order, human rights,

etc, only when it's convenient for them. and yet, when the expediency demands it's, they will throw it out the window. there has been no attention whatsoever. and then we, we saw joe by who was out we'll blanket or not green to set a cluster munitions to ukraine, which invariably are going to be used all civilians and will oppose pose the greatest strive to this is to show her the parts of angel account pain of florida golf net wrong desantis says find a sofa here. read tweeted a video with nazi images faced over the republican kind of this face of the video included criticism. a former us president donald trump and ended up with a frame of desantis in front of the black. some simple, notoriously, used by not sees on the follow is the sofa, they talk men. we posted the video, but later delays it has to ease off respond south wage from the florida gulf and

his followers, account pain. officials at hoffman is no longer employed at the foremost off himself. has notes commented on the mazda, 2 or 3 users were outraged over the hypocrisy of western media. when it came to the video, buses will not cease in ukraine. there were no nazis in ukraine until this and this is staff found them for the media. congratulations. obviously, the criticism is the hypocrisy of people praising and supposing nazis and ukraine to then turn around and the outrage to someone in the defense his camp is using the same imagery as the nazis. they support and ukraine shout out to all the liberal, crying over the sand is posting this nazi stuff when you have been cheering supporting, and boot looking for a literal nazis in the ukraine over the last 2 years. i really don't understand why you beef with conservatives. you're the same race as devils media on

legal analysts line i will say is that the west has football. so this history of that forward knows the fact that not sees all still present, especially in ukraine. i don't know if this is hypocrisy double standards or political and historic skips of freeney. yeah. when you mentioned the as a battalion, the right sector, when you show symbols in symbology, not only symbols, not, not merely something to somebody is worried. but what people have said, what people have noted, the history and it, it never crossed the blood brain barrier in terms of western media. it just never went anywhere. people say, wow, what do you mean? well no we, these are, you don't when you were use the term not sees in. it's become an expression for somebody who is excessive or draconian, or authoritarian, or excessive or and that's, that's beyond our role in that this is the fact an

expression. this was a movement that has not gone away. north korea has cooled. the arrival of a us a nuclear, a separate in south korea. a clear provocation. film young responded to the movie fi test. launching a pack of ballistic missiles into the sea of his coast spoken condemnation from japan. another key american ally in the region such as are so north korea frequently has been repeating, ballistic miss. so firings which are a threat to the peace and stability of not only japan, but also the region and the international society. and it is totally unacceptable. the launch is comma made high to intentions on the korean peninsula. south korea on cus are taking steps to increase that for power. it's mostly gains north korea as weapons program. last week the us sent it's nucleus,

something written the 1st to arrive in south korea since the 1980s. also last week . private travis, king of the us armed forces to affect it to north korea, co direct. so all the international action center sarah flounder says that those career on the us a provoking north korea with the actions to the real missile launches continually unendingly, are coming from the us. and japan is absolutely part of these missile exercises. these what are called decapitation drills. so there's a real history behind this that would make north korea feel particularly written because july 27th is a 70 a anniversary of the pharmacist agreement. and in 70 years, no peace treaty constant on ending threats instead against the korean people of the north and sanctions, devastating sanctions, but parking a nuclear submarine in south korea is the greatest threat of the time. now a new

u. s. nuclear cell, which is called a doomsday machine, a global death machine. every one of those nuclear subs carries 24 nuclear missiles that could in one launch the launch beach with multiple independently targeted war hits. that's what it is. it is really a death machine. i'm putting that openly in south korea and biting that dest machine into south korea, directly aimed at north korea, is a pretty heavy threat. so, north korea has fired a few missiles. yes, to say they will defend themselves for the latest news updates given on our website r t dot com. as always, we appreciate your company. thank you for choosing asi international. the the
