the, the, the, the west african eco was block orders with the appointment of it to stand by military force. moving a potential intervention in the chair, one step closer in the past as a bill and parliament repealing controversial sedition laws dating back to colonial times. senators in america, i'll call for a cut to existing military aid to egypt, citing human rights concerns about seemingly turning a blind eye to crimes taking place in ukraine. also ahead of the hopes and dreams of a whole community riding on this vast machine as it actually takes the machine power up towards the cost most press a heads to the moon for the 1st time in almost half

a century as part of its ambitious lunar program for the coming years, the alive from moscow. i'm rachel ruble, and this is our t international. our top story, this, our, the african union has expressed in support for the economic community of west african states in a resolution aimed at reversing last month's military coup in these year. so that comes, as echo was, was ordered. it's stand by forces to activate and deploy. missourians haven't you has yet to respond to the move. the statement follows and echo laws leaders meeting and a booge on thursday, 2 weeks after the crew in the army started become a t, a be chief of defense stuff, to activate the aqua stand by force, with all its elements immediately order the deployment of the eco was stunned by

force to restore constitutional order in the republic of new jersey. the ned, but also new jersey, a new way to get into fact is the one blow one side uh which ease uh, which one tends to continue like uh, quite deep would understand you've done which for the invasion from the inquest, troops and, and other say do we have countries of light combined the book, you know, 5 so, and they gave me uh which uh the high and the agent that then you jump. uh, they only tell me see, uh, any i mean to bring to that stop. but from the new or 32 of the new jersey. so from what we see yesterday, even in and even though it's 2 days this morning people, i'm not going something about the, the, she's in of, uh, the request because uh they have a way to move on. so you don't necessarily like the would mostly be any other from

the it was do they said the most of them assume that it's just a kind of intimidation? is it cost and we cannot, cannot to more insight as a country or to come by us best to add that to the new jedi, that it must us of that the just people that the minnesota again new jersey and constitutional expert man a card table, car says the possible echo wise intervention risk. so triggering a crisis for the country and wider african confidence of the songs, the military intervention will lead to real chaos and provoke a catastrophe. we feel that equal losses under pressure now, because the interest of the african people, the people who represented the laws, are not in one but in development. but the military intervention of around 50000 people risks causing the kind of chaos that we have already seen in libya, a real or a complete disorder in west africa, which will seriously hinder development. the armies of molly and burkina faso will

not act as a mere observer. they made it clear that any intervention against these or would be considered an intervention against these 2 countries. other africans also hinted about their readiness to come to the age of nature, is equal, i sense it soldiers equal us risk triggering a crisis and losing control over their fears. the other foreign forces, in particular, france and united states will take over the news here in particular, and this, the whole region as a full will come under fire, which will damage the development of africa. the whole continent is hostile to potential military intervention against the forest people in the world. in these year, we see this intervention as an attempt to so k us make this a how ungovernable and create the conditions for exploitation of the regions best natural resources, in particular uranium. which is very important for the french economy in energy,

as well as oil and many other minerals that have not been discovered, but which we believe are available in this part of africa, and which may be important in the future. so a quick recap of the rapidly evolving events and these, there 2 weeks ago, a cruise solved and military to pose the countries later stating the nation. it was descending in to pay us under the former president who has been replaced by the commander of the presidential guards unit. since the uprising the nation has been hit with a slew of harsh measures from the u. s. u and some of its neighbors. but now summer heads of said have a field to echo, was to lift the restriction, stating they could have it catastrophic consequences for the nice area. and people who heard from local so said the country, is it striving for independence? hey, i live here liberally. you don't bother this situation, forces us to be energy autonomous. we want to move towards energy autonomy only struggle can liberate us and have a know me that's as well trained, well grounded and disciplined. we the people of needs here are not leaving an echo

watch or the west african economic and monetary union. we're ready to us, you more responsibilities, ready to suffer? the consequences of what will happen. company doesn't fit in. we have to adapt as we're an independent people and we aspire to totally independence. this is the moment to make a sacrifice even if it affects our lives, to adapt to the situation front, benefitted from new year if we refer to a history for bulbs, out of 5 and fronts are produced with uranium from each year. we have the support of bradley countries such as molly book and audit and also russia, which will support this on see if i need you by the case and they cannot say and the sanctions do not affect the lives of new rents. but your cottage, especially since molly working to foster and genie, i'll leave us to limit the weights our people. meanwhile, both france and the us have expressed of their full support of the west african blocks decisions on the new share issue with us secretary of state, anthony,

blinking st. washington will hold the military responsible for the safety of detained the government officials. a we echoed the echo was condemnation of the illegal detention of president mohammed presume. his family and members of the government, as well as the unacceptable conditions under which they are being held and call for their immediate release. like acar wash, the united states will hold the council for the safe guard of the homeland accountable for the safety and security of president bassoon, his family in detained members of the government. the west seems very concerned about these arrows to post the presidents mohammed by zoom, who was taken into custody by his very own presidential guard. the un secretary general is very concerned over the deplorable living conditions that new jersey and president presume and his family are reported to be living under as they continue to be arbitrarily detained by members of the presidential guard in these year. the secretary general reiterates is concerned over the health and safety of the president in his family and once again calls for his immediate unconditional

release and his reinstatement is head of state with respect to present mission. but soon we are greatly worried about his health and his personal safety and the personal safety of his family makes me wonder how bad those conditions really are. though, considering position was able to ask the west for help. despite all this alleged abuse. nevertheless, the west crocodile tears continued to flow as do their sanctions on the people of new share. the european union is working on its 1st package of sanctions as we speak, while the eco last block of western backed african nations was quick to launch its own. all with a rubber stamp from brussels. the risk is that we start running out of assistance materials to be able to help out people. i'm talking about simple things that are so life saving. some people will soon be feeling the pinch of this more than the 4300000 people we had planned on supporting through emergency humanitarian assistance. we might see that number growing and growing fast, or only seeing the tip of the sanctions iceberg. and yet the new jerry and people

are already feeling the consequences. millions are dealing with black outs for hours at a time while the threats of foreign military intervention and terrorist attacks hang over the country. like a dark cloud on top of that, the flow of humanitarian aid into these areas under serious threat as the new military administration was forced to close the country's borders in preparation for a, for an attack, you'd be in union reach rates. it's very clear calls for the full restoration without the late of the constitutional order and fully associates itself, with the declarations of echoes and its african and international partners in this regard, in card and nation with the presence of the european council, i will continue this weekend the many contacts already underway in order to achieve this result. we stand ready to support echo us upcoming decisions, including the adoption of sanctions, sanctions, and threats of an invasion a playbook the west has used so many times. you think by now western leaders would

know that it's not governments, but ordinary people that suffer the most under these policies. but maybe they do know that. and this was the plan all along with an estimated 8 trillion dollars lost in post and $911.00 wars in the global south. and the latest episode of going underground option baton c quizzes, a former c, a advisory board member, michael hamlin, on washington's misplaced priorities catch the 4th as of live tomorrow. in the meantime, here's a preview. the problem is you may agree with me, but a brown university estimate was 2 trillion dollars for the war. the last war in afghanistan, 8 trillion dollars of us public money that could have gone to save those americans that will be dying this year because of poverty. link disease and you didn't want bite and to leave afghanistan, you didn't want to obama to laser rack. you wanted more money spent on these was

way really the americans. we don't welcome you talk 1st of all about the global south, and i agree with your focus on that area. but as you know, that's a catch all term for many different regions. you're sitting in a region which as you know, better than i has been disheartened by american this engagement for a parent or perceived this. i'm not sure about that. you know, the saudi embassy just opened into ron, in the past. you know, a few days i'm, well, i'm happy about that myself. so i don't see this all in nero. you know, pro us pro china, pro savvy pro ron terms. i think that relationship should improve for the betterment of the region, but a lot of most of the middle east, experts scholars and diplomats that interact with have regretted the rapid american disengagement from the broader middle east in afghanistan in 2021. we only had about 5000 u. s. military personnel on the ground. that was not what was producing a trillion dollar price tags. those were the price tags associated with the big difference of yesteryear of so yes,

in afghanistan discussion is certainly worth having. and i understand the other point of view, but i did favor trying to preserve what modest amount of hopefulness there was still in afghanistan. and there wasn't a lot holder, certainly was more than other than that. so i mean, clearly the americans were but with for her coat, i mean i guess why is it then then when the americans leave, as you say, get more disengaged, be starts breaking out with syria with the wrong with the b starts breaking out in between the 0 period, every tray, a piece starts breaking out in latin america. wherever the united states just engages from peaceful is the new bill was introduced to the indian parliament to overall the country is a controversial solution laws, which is a fact to colonial times. and nations home minister, i mean shaw, says the outdated legislation should be scrapped in its entirety. the prime minister heads out and the mindset of slavery. we will bring 3 new laws in their

place to ensure the protection of rights. it will and to give justice, not punishment. what separate bills, what table during this session of the problem, 16 june government wanting to do we, we 3 british era criminal laws. so the indian pino code, the code is coming out to see jewels and the indian evidence act. all 3 will be done away with all 3 will be replaced and this bill essentially was stabled by the indian minister ahmed shot. now in march 2020, the government have basically found the committee to look into the new polls and why and how they can be changed. and this could with the basically works on these laws. and these amendments for round to all yours. and last year in said 2022. in fact, the committee supplemented a detailed and their laboratories reports to the government to india and made

suggestions and amendments indeed criminal laws. now, a lot of the suggestions that we're a connected, they would take, you know, from people across the lens and the rest of the country. now, the new legal framework i'm a child sees in to provide justice. i'm not on this t c. and that the british out a lot of these come in last, essentially war to strengthen and protect the british administration. so that needs to change. the focus of the law has to be justice. i'm not punishment is what i'm a child that sees also, it's a complete overhaul of the colonial era criminal laws. so this is going to include maximum punishment for crimes related to women and children and states. so for example, down rates, rates of my nose, also crimes against the state or the a inside would be most things the punishment. so for example, death for re poles,

my nose, twin tls for gas rapes, also the colonial at all. and also the vague controversial solutions all will be done away with the will now because endings with xfinity. oh, so that's, that's also important and the focus sweety of the bill, the c e's crime against women children but also the states and the proposed law also sees that the doors reading a risk in fact can be tried in the court of law in the absence which is on hold in india. but any point out here at this stage is, is a bill that has been moved and let me on the line that the was the last day of the month and session of the fireman's. for this big, big shape of the your, the government needs to the parliament needs to fall off the bill. and that cannot

be happening in the next session. the following monday, which is going to be the winter session somewhere in the book to book on the web that has ukraine's counter offensive fails to meet expectations of russia has launched one of its own. in the northern part of the front, moscow's troops have advanced in the car cove region toward the local stronghold city of coupons, and proving the tactical situation over the past 24 hours a poor. do you be able to use enough with bands coming up during hostilities? and then beyond the direction are solved, groups captured too strong, holds 5, observe ation posts, and defeated an infantry platoon. in addition, during one day the enemy carried out 5 counter attacks which were successfully repelled crews of attack. helicopters ensued 25 jet aircraft from the western battalion, carried out 11 air strikes against accumulations of manpower and fire power of the 25th to separate airborne brigade 14th, separate mechanize to brigade and territorial defense units may be

a good day. so meanwhile, mandatory evacuations were declared in the city of cookies and scanned the surrounding suburbs on to say after ukrainian forces lost 165 soldiers in the region as well as a number of western supplied armored vehicles and artillery. according to the russian defense ministry in the neighboring don bass region at 12 ukrainian, the attacks were also forwarded as russia continues to destroy targets deep in ukrainian controlled territories. the hotel that was being utilized by tia, of as a temporary deployment points performed, mercenaries was struck near the city of the promotion. this footage, you can see the missile for the past 24 hours alone. your pains, armed forces have been struck a total of $139.00 times as one of the shooting was the.

the white house has asked congress to approve $21000000000.00 worth of additional aid for ukraine. the majority of which is earmarks. the nations seemingly failing counter offensive, or to contribute, or rachel marsden has the details. so by asking for billions more in defense a does what seems to be an endless, massive well transferring for the parts of the us military industrial complex all for ukraine. of course, when quick, it might seem like a lot of cash to be spending, but what kind of horrible person would dare put a price on freedom and democracy? reminds me of a girl i knew in college, you had a boyfriend who insisted on driving them everywhere in his car, but he always made her pay for gas because he said, hey, i'm driving and you can't put a price on safety. who would do that? kind of like only a planted heater would object to climate change spending, even though it's clearly pretty much useless. in a recent interview with the washington post, the polish president tried to frame all of a spending on ukraine as

a total bargain for the west. right now, russian imperialism can be stopped cheaply because american soldiers are not dying . but if we don't put a whole to russian aggression now, there will be heavy price to be paid. yeah, such a great deal that the west is getting right now. being able to use ukrainians is pretty much cannon fodder instead of americans. he's basically echoing what us secretary of state hillary clinton said last december, the u. s. a g u parade is a quote, really good investment for the united states. they're not us to be there to fight there. were they freighting it themselves? she said, the former secretary of state, that is really changed. enthusiasts and senator lindsey graham also called the quote, best of money we've ever spent referring to the agent that's given under the pretext of helping ukraine to the military industrial complex. he said that earlier this year, pointing out that well russians design can do better than that. yeah, well you are to and it's not like it's some kind of a video game. refraining is art shooting at russians from behind the safety of

a screen with lindsey graham by clinton and graham. do you know that if they had to send americans to fight russians in ukraine, aside from the handful of volunteers who have answers always these call to go play out? there were campbell's fantasies over there on their own. it's, well, the political cost would be just absolutely astronomical for them and they just might end up regime changing themselves right out of power because already americans, patients are starting to wear presents 55 percent of them. don't want congress to green light more weapons funding for ukraine. that's according to a new cnn, paul. and even poland, kids biggest cheerleader in the west submits to seeing the writing on the wall with the current stalled state of the training counter offensive. but they also frame it as a great opportunity to keep the western tax, their cash flowing into weapons. those ukraine has enough weapons to change the balance of the war and get the upper hand. the answer is probably no,

they probably do not have enough weapons. and we know this is by the fact that they're not currently able to carry out the very decisive contra offensive against the russian military to make a long story short, they need more assistance to, they need more assistance pulling, have a really good thing going there with this weapons funding rockets, they've been able to load themselves up with western weapons by crying about the big, scary russian monster like a kid if he's running into his parents bedroom at night demanding more protection hits been able to score abrams types of battle demand system for patriot ms. solve apache attack helicopters, high mobility, artillery and walk in systems and a 35 fighters. not a bad deal. it's prime minister poems by minister said back in april that they even wanted to set themselves up as uncle sam's basically their service garage in europe and produced toxic, depleted uranium for washington's abrams tanks. yeah, that sounds like it would be really great for the environment at the time when the you is even cracking down on cows for fear that they're killing the earth with

their flatulence and waste defense minister said back into the poland land army will be the strongest in europe, into years. convenience. so poland and washington, both on so you have a deep interest receiving this all sorted, sending parties over ukraine, going, tossing caps in cash it to into the wrong dances around on the world stage and distracts from the very sad reality behind this spectacle. animal washington gives away tons of cash to ukraine. a group of us democratic congressman has joined an initiative to partially block a military aid to egypt over human rights concerns. we are strongly concerned by reports from both the state department, as well as numerous credible human rights and civil society organizations by the persistent and considered systematic violations of human rights in egypt. we call

on you to withhold the full $320000000.00 of fiscal year 2022 for now to refinance in until egypt human rights record significantly improves. in late july, a similar pushed by another group of us lawmakers claims the addiction government made little progress and meeting at numerous human rights related criteria. human rights advocates echo to such concerns, accusing local authorities of dealing dissidence and suppressing media and political freedoms. though they disagree that the solution is cutting funding. the idea of reducing 8 or what seen as abuse as has been on washington's radar for years as an annually allocates $1300000000.00 and military aid to egypt. under the current legislation, about $300000000.00 of the sum is subject to certification, but the end of september being the deadline for making a decision on the budgets the best as the pentagon is reportedly planning to give you crime. yet another military aid package of $200000000.00 to help troops

and what some call of failing counter offensive and money is earmarked for him. mars the patriot systems and munitions for how it serves. among the few, all this takes place against the backdrop of the bite and administration's latest requests to congress for an additional $21000000000.00 an emergency funding for key as always spoke to professor of political science at helen university. and i get both chose to explain why washington is fine with helping ukraine and not so much with each of you cream. these are to the u. s. and the american tools to in team in u. s. foreign policy and to contain russia to find the pressure to dream, russia. so they don't care about the human rights violations in the dream. why? at the pressure and other countries that do not apply to the terms of united states

. so they don't have to exercise pressure on ukraine. why? because the ukraine is fighting with the last ukranian soldiers. uh for the american cause. the egypt is not doing that. russia is 1st moved mission since 1976 is now speeding toward the earth natural satellite. after blasting off in the early hours of friday, the $25.00 unmanned module is due to touch down on the south pole of the moon in 10 days time. or to use a table is a witness to the historic launch as of a starch, the cause of the drum and rushes far east. a. it's a historic moment, so you're in la starchy and rushes, far east. it's 7000 kilometers east of moscow. and the whole community of scientists, engineers and workers are waiting with a mixture of excitement and trepidations for the launch to begin of this vast. so

used to rock it behind me. this machine weighs over 300 tons, fully fueled as it is now. and it's causing a payload of about $615.00 key to problems with the lander. of course, this is russia's a latest emission to the moon. and the last one was in the 1976, all the hopes and dreams of a whole community riding on this vast machine. as a, as it actually takes up behind us a real level look, now this magnificent machine, power your, towards the cost us. so are a document to machine roots into space again, as many, many hopes and dreams,

years of technological expertise and work on it to this on a successful launch for russia. magnificent, the magnificent, the, i think the witness it's, it's really hard to find the words fairly quick look at how the russian learner lender is designed and how is the multiple components work in unison or the, the, the,

it's not just, and the probes being sent into orbit by russia, there are currently 23 pauses the knots in service with the countries of space agency, ross cosmos. one of them has long dreamed of making giant leaps toward the distant worlds of the final frontier, but says, people's expectations must be realistic for now and should focus on smaller steps and space closer to the pale blue dots we call home. i

just wasn't the right from the start of my childhood that i began dreaming of being a cosmonaut. i even wanted to become a filial until logistics one point it happened to in high school. i think my parents did a good job of providing me with the right kind of books and encyclopedias. and of course, the star wars movies also played a role. it was in high school that i decided i want to pursue a career in space, exploration. my parents supported me, of course, but when i finally pass the medical check who was selected for the space flight training program and told them i was enrolled, they got nervous. they asked me, are you sure this is what you want. but of course i answer for me, the most interesting part was the specialized training. all the special training routines you see on tv are not that common. hydro lab training, for example, is extremely interesting. it's also physically hard, but exciting. you go onto water in a space suit and work with the station. and before that, there's cuba training,

0 gravity in water, a different water. it gives the weightlessness. but there's also resistance hydraulic resistance. and you have to take into account the boy and sea of the space suit. the weight is still there. so it's definitely easier to work in a 0 g state. seeing that or through the cuba on the space station is probably my most memorable experience. that's when i realized that there's only one or if that we all share and we have to take care of it. even if we land on another planet sunday. and i want to believe that will happen eventually. it will be interesting which will never have the comfortable living conditions that we have in north i have always dreamed of flying to other planets, exploring other worlds. frankly, i would love to be the jupiter's moon. he rough uh, very much. but realistically, according to the plans we adopted in 2016 for the foreseeable future in my time of space travel.
