7:06 pm
global services is the, the very, very negative 11 person i mention that we, we've made it easier because we're going to be resolved as low as possible. the use of hiding and what you see is it, it has to be in east and africa is have to come up. and this is where the thing is . ready rather than in the nation division, these uh is done through to solve this much of a different metric. ready no, but. ready like it goes by africans, but it was but a big budget and make the, the vision for the whole mess records from the big mist is the, is it brought of meanwhile, the, your opinion is preparing to stop sanctions on these as can we impose government as according to the blocks foreign policy chief the welcome to the decisions taken by
7:07 pm
a co boss heads of state at the 2nd emergency summit. the situation in the area on august 10th, in particular, the desire to seek a diplomatic way out of the current crisis taken into account the simultaneous mobilization of the co west reserve forces. european union fully supports the efforts undertaken by a co us and is preparing to contribute to their implementation in practice by introducing a new regime of individual sanctions against the new leadership of georgia. meanwhile, in france, local senators, as publicly criticized the country's policies towards his former colonies in west africa, well demanding the president mcroy on refuse his approach to the confidence for today it's new share. yesterday it was molly, the central african republic brewing of a storage acting fronts, french forces, french companies. but we did not understand the pollution of french poets in africa on a military level, as well as on the level of john development or on the level of cultural and linguistic cooperation. today,
7:08 pm
the french africa yesterday has been replaced by the military russian africa by the economic chinese africa and by the diplomatic american africa. and unfortunately, what do have to say about the regression of the french language and comparison was english based on the dressing french present. and you're not co now in a major national newspaper live feed, yahoo! and they're doing it on behalf of 94 french parliamentarians. now what they want, they say is a quote review of francis vision of africa and links to the content because it's all just suddenly a big mystery to them as to what could possibly have gone so wrong. so the french defense minister responded to the letter by basically say, failures, what failures you, big drama, queens, i can't let it be sent. an operation by hand was a failure. our army has constantly pushed back terrorist groups and this a hell savings, thousands of lives there. but also protecting french people at home from the threat of attacks on our soil by hand was not a failure. it is
7:09 pm
a mistake to say that apparently none of the french politicians know why africa would possibly turn to russia's wagner group for security services. when french troops were doing such a bang up job with counterterrorism and stability, that crews were happening left and right right under their noses in places like molly guinea and 14 and also, and the chair and the west african region was just named the global at the center of terrorism by the institute of economics and pieces 2023 global terrorism index, and media as an added bonus, even got a special mention in that report for its terrorism search. it was just earlier this year. the french president evaluated mccaul, tried re branding terraces, africa strategy in an obvious effort to have an excuse to just keep hanging out there groups exist form, what does it says on? i can no clue to sit in with that, jackie from this new phase of this new era in which we're entering is to deploy our security presence in the partnership form so that it fits this new partnership
7:10 pm
toward the repetition of history. there's another path, another path which consists not producing an advocate to a field of competition or profit. and then considering the african countries as partners with whom we shared interest and responsibility is not co repeatedly mentioned in partnerships with african civil society translation. french cash for energy owes to do frances bidding for it in africa. mac, who made a point of saying that this was all about not quote, taking people for imbeciles, which is kind of like a big flashing read sign advertising. i saw seal, i'm about to just that. it's not like molly's foreign minister, didn't spell it all out from echo, and anyone else willing to listen? what exactly france was doing wrong in africa process? for this, it's up to fonts to assess the results of the operation. the objective of operation by con, was deliberate. molly, from service groups and provide security, but i can see that 9 years later,
7:11 pm
the overall results. i see overall result because there were many players involved . the overall result did not meet the expectations of the people of molly and the region because we're only fighting terrorism in the north of the country. and now there are growing issues with terrorism in other 1000 areas. in molly, we see more and more into a communal violence which leads to a lot of depths at present. the situation in many countries of the region is unstable. one cannot claim that tamales to blame here. poly itself separate from the invasion of libya by western countries. the results of the operation was not worth the effort. and the money invested rushing for mr said gala ross also pointed out last year that former french for mr. john elijah, the y'all and the chief different not use the bro had told him that russia had nothing to do in africa. neither by the state means nor by private means. because africa is an area of interest to be you and france. maybe they should have just
7:12 pm
told the problem that they lift it to like kids do with the entire box of chocolates or candy just to make sure that russian knew that her belonged to them. with this level of self awareness, it's all indeed just a big mystery as to why french seduction efforts have backfired in africa and rushed as bell google and regional residential building is apparently being hit by a ukrainian drone. according to the local government, no casualties have been reported so far, but several windows of the high rise building have been blow nouns with the facade or say, visibly damaged. and the just the crew is there with the scene to check the effect to departments at least 15 calls pos near the building, but also hit by daybreak and defense systems were reported. he had been fined in the area shortly before the bloss russia's bell, who wants to agent has been coming on to increasing the tax and recent months from across the board in ukraine. as this comes off to several drones, with downs as
7:13 pm
a rush has caused scans belgrade regions earlier this weekend. the russian defense ministry also say is another u, a v wasn't accepted on sunday morning to salazar, they are the bridge linking crimea to the main lines was targeted once a game to ukrainian missiles were shutting down and its immediate vicinity. according to moscow, when i came off to another, attempt to tackle dependency the on saturday and locking 3 a soaps and a period of just 24 hours. oh, that's been where repels by russian defenses. ukrainian presidents, the landscape safety f will continue to attack russian infrastructure targets, including the crimean bridge of both sides of the config. drones are playing a pivotal role on the front lines where they be proven to be affordable and effective tools. all tease it goes to on, of course, and exclusive look at some of russians sophia's metal. but before the soldiers in this pickup truck have no idea they're being watched,
7:14 pm
the drone operator follows the every move from dozens of to lomax is away. this is one of russia's largest surveillance, drones very rarely gets in the sights of jealous, but we're, of course, lucky we're about to witness it being moved. it's main purpose is to surveil d, behind the enemy lines. sheesh flying it over a 1000 meters. it's ghost like invisible, silent. we'll see here ukraine soldiers sold pine trees concealed the little cobb park well, moments later, it's obliterated by a hail of trap know the neighboring trench is spotted and smashed too. as plumes of black smoke rise from the opposite exit its inhabitants make a run for it, carrying one wounded with them just in time as the entire stronghold is set to
7:15 pm
blaze. turning vehicles of the into useless shod chunks of metal, no smaller as the budget. the main task is to conduct your account as it is fabi on the front line. read the text ending the yachts hillary, the transport of personnel reserves, and also actively monitor to evacuation areas. for example, of to act safe hosted with these. a main task is to reveal the head locations of the enemy. you know, when these drones carry out their duty, no place is safe and no time 2 nights. in fact, at coolant temperatures, heat signatures, treacherously evident crews maintaining such you avi's crazy targets for key or forces. not really for you. it's actually the, sometimes it happens that due to the mean, so free the warfare, the pictures just to come by, we manage to get away from the interference. we tend to work even if there is some kind of directed attackers. sometimes the enemy gets into the camera settings,
7:16 pm
what was still managed to get rid of this negative impact. it's the ultimate game of hide and seek elimination, e, close death. when that take sold and wins to make is done of reporting from the dumbass out. american made trends are too expensive and difficult to operate on the box or field and ukraine, as, according to a former u. s. navy intelligence office, i quoted by the wall street journal. he stays americas in fi doesn't produce the cheap and simple drones that he has actually needs you. as defense, tech firms have spent months testing their drones and ukraine. but some now leave their drones in storage because they couldn't perform perfectly in ukraine's harsh battlefields conditions. they're too expensive to deploy at scale. u. s. companies don't mass produce the cheap expendable drones ukrainian troops need their advanced
7:17 pm
drones start at around $16000.00. that's not discussed this with international consulting l rasmussen. joining us for motions and money. thanks for joining us. so let's get straight to it. all these american drawings is supposed to be designed to operate in precisely such difficult battlefields conditions, whether they're designed for, for performance. not necessarily in this type of conditions. i mean, we looked food spent so many years and the desert type of environment or afghanistan area and really not in the ukrainian type of environment the but i mean that they are very, some of them are very effective in this some new, uh, drones that are being developed uh, especially the primary purpose being uh surveillance and reconnaissance a but they are quite expensive. um and so its and their complex, they operate the uh, i think the chinese um, typical drone you could probably militarize that you're,
7:18 pm
you're probably talking under, depending on the range, anywhere from a 1000 to 15000 dollars, which is quite a, considerably less than what the us military problem. yeah. when, when did the price tag become an issue when it came to ukraine? the name of the billing uh, the bill in the us is already dished out to key it. why would it be a problem for them to supply and driving that $16000.00 a piece? is it just becoming too expensive for a non native country? do you think? well, i think it's a, it is expensive. the, you know, for one thing is, um, are drones or, or anywhere from uh, actually the smaller ones. you've got the small uh, um, a black cornet which is very small. only about a 25 minute range uh, quite time, but it's uh, it's less than an hour since, and basically it's highly uh, technical uh can, can detect
7:19 pm
a lot of different things or surveillance. you can get it to places that people would not detect. but you've got a quite a half the price steak to go in with around $200000.00 per uh for a girl. you know, you've got to the raven, which is another one. another smaller relative size. it's a but it's going for $250.00 down. so it's a and it's a less than 10 pounds. the width about 90 minutes of white time. they are working in dark product on another drone that, that will be able to a weapon systems as well. the gremlins, but you're still, you're still talk looking at a price. it has a 350 mile range. you're still looking at a price. they've about 700000. so the thing is we don't, our industry does not. our defense contractors just do not produce the quantity at the price level that that are needed to meet the crating. the man. yeah. like
7:20 pm
calling have a wonderful i because drones the exactly new. it's not a new to law, the military and civilians, you avi's, it'd be nice thing for decades now. so what was taken to us so long to start mass producing the cheap drones, the ukraine reports of the names. there's not a profit margin there, so it's uh, you know, you're not the that to produce something in the $500.00 to $10000.00 range of these, not a profit margin there for us to do it. and you can probably shift, i guess if you do somebody of large pond correct in guaranteed a certain number. but then it's going to take you a couple of years and put your, your production lines in, in place. and what's the other demand for it other than ukraine? you've got one isolated area that you've got the requirements for you know, you've just, you know, if is your new looking in the market driven area,
7:21 pm
you're looking at the return for shareholders. and it just is there's no, you know, we can do our testing of our new developments but, but really no, uh, no real markets there to actually uh, scale up to produce low cost thrones a to meet the requirements that are needed there. thanks so much for speaking to us is always great to get your expertise and your insight into any situation. international consultant rasmussen, thank you. or the pockets down is such a market. 77 found the best way of independence on monday to commemorate the country's freedom from british colonial rule. residents of the southern city of karachi, half of where the east of to celebrate the fireworks, of let the size of many pakistani cities and concepts as well as

7:23 pm
and the possibility of retaliation from washington serve is the final now in the coffin. currently, the project is stalled due to international sanctions on the ram, and we have been compelled to put it on hold. pulling out of the project will also come with the costs are raw, says it has already invested $2000000000.00 and is written pakistan with an $18000000.00 fine if it doesn't complete it. so the pipeline 0 by march of next year for the rest of sanctions, violations coming from the us seem to be greater in the eyes of the government and is all about leaving some to argue that washington should be the one paying the fines for interfering with the project and so you should pay the penalty if it does not approve of pakistan and iran going ahead with a gas pipeline project through us. we'll have to do away with the double standards being lenient with india in meaning it's energy needs well, punishing pack is done for the same discussion. surrounding this project, notably began back in 1995,
7:24 pm
but it was never completed as part of stop lock the funds and feared the political follow me. the ongoing tension between the us under was the 750000000 cubic feet of gas per day. the pipeline in supply is still desperately needed as pakistan more than $230000000.00 people are living in an energy crisis with their overburdened electrical system experiencing regular blackouts of up to 12 hours at a time. however, that relief is still not on its way and the people of pakistan are paying the price . but the point is, what can a slave nation do on their own? on the far life we have been following their us policy from the one we're following them. this will continue until the end of our politicians and powerful leads b, b s. is there got the entire market as close to? you can see the energy crisis here. you have questions and i have no answers. i'm
7:25 pm
not able to put you on, you know, they didn't get we are in great trouble. no gas, no look at the sanctions. i guess all gas pipeline from iran is it is asked us if we could get that cheap. a guess. it would be great for our industry. we could produce cheap electricity and have a lower bill as well. now we're buying gas from far away, pain high prices. thoughts on that, as for the $18000000000.00 in fines that are wrong is demanding. the u. s. has yet to response, and pakistan has yet to say what length it will go to to try to get washington to pay the bill rushes. the space program took long john sleep this week, heading back to the moon for the 1st time in almost half a century. it on friday, a web page will towards the moon, its mission,
