sanctioning the neighboring country. the coming to you live for marty international citizen, moscow. i'm here elizabeth, here with the latest and world news today. welcome to the program. threats and future stability around the globe have been the watchwords of the past couple of days in the russian capital. as moscow hosted a conference on international security. more than 800 delegates from 76 countries took part. in his opening address, the russian defense minister said the world, the reno was evolving, giving a voice to the previously voiceless. it is the director of the special military operation. put an end to the dominance of the collective west and the ministry sphere. disability to impose interest in various regions of the world has significantly decreased. the ongoing changes have increased the role of the
12:02 pm
countries of asia, africa, and latin america in the world system. today, a reference, oppose not by the armed forces ukraine, but by the anti collective west, which has recently been joined by individual states of the asia pacific region for the main or ocean personalities, presenting at this conference with our gay show agree with the russian defense minister a heavy heading, a very serious guy, when he calls people listen, i'm one of the main things he's been saying at the conference was that ukraine is now essentially exhausted. and it gives a forum for the world to really speak, as he said, the countries who have been previously listened to on heard in post colonial advocate for example. and it was some of the comments by the representatives of these countries which proved to be really fascinating. we actually listened to the comments of a representative of the central african republic. and here what he had to say about the shifting picture subject to today was see the, the united states and the west as a whole,
12:03 pm
not always contribute to the development of individual states. and russia is the main country that promotes the independent development of individual states, including those in africa, a remarkable representation of the global picture. and again, it's a russia that's creating these for where these countries kind of have their message and their product stations and their positions here. and we don't see this type of effort going into this in the west. and again, the narrative is the bush is isolated. so as far as the western narrative is concerned, these meetings don't even take place at all. and if they do, there's some sort of a malign uh, influence building folder areas of the globe. also a representative, of course, the me least, the me least decades of, of the turmoil more discontent. much of which many analysts independent, doubtless, would believe a, you know, the gun in iran and 1952 in the west. western oil companies at overturn the democratically elected government. them a homicide. the at b p, the c i a, the,
12:04 pm
the of the rule book, you know, turn it over and order a regime change which led to huge conflict in the, in the region that even visa, ever since the us begin working towards imposing its uni polar system, uses the criminal policy of unilateralism as a tool to reach it same as the main features of which is the lack of respect for the independence of countries and their territorial integrity. dusty valuing the lives of innocent people. another example of us policies the use of proxy wars in order to effect and re determined regional order. a variety of tools are used to reach certain goals. for example, conducting proxy media wars. here we can note the use of satellites and its work and social networks in virtual space also spun. he thought aloud show what human knowledge godaddy, western countries are aimed at, continued to own and plunder, financial wealth, all the country. so the result is task violating the freedom and independence of the countries of the region to us continues to plunder serious and natural
12:05 pm
resources and support on formations with impunity. this picture, this global picture now we're more and more countries are looking to russia on china as partners. uh, the idea of the western is sort of the strategy of divide and conquer being replaced by the bricks, ideology of united and prosper. another fascinating attends is a really important meeting. was the d p. okay. north korea, a country absolutely maligned and isolated into westbrook bush and reaching out to friendship to them that cooperating on numerous fronts. and again, we see a country that has been the victim from the viewpoint of history of western had gemini to the post and north tree and more period where this country was devastated again. now getting a podium now getting a platform to talk. and again, we can listen to the defense latasha from the deep your k. speaking of the conference, the doing you for your was one of the pretty,
12:06 pm
i'm pretty sure has now become not the question or read a lot of question of who then when the new be a will meeting year over the us and the puppy. solve the puzzle is now turning the aquarium plan fluid and didn't know if these fisher into a new, fresh pouring or when you create a wall or you've shrink to decrease cause stage domain dizziness and veteran beans will be with jason's photographs. imperialism is but as an exploitation, this conference exceptionally important, not just from a russian point of view, but from the point of view of russia following through on this new multi toller audiology like countries. just because the west as a country is, is the bad guy doesn't necessarily mean it's so just because the western media anoints a country as a road, steve does not mean it's so. and just because the only country on earth that ever
12:07 pm
used a nuclear weapon in anger against the civilian population, the united states and now decides who can have those weapons to defend themselves from a huge west of the gemini, does not make it so fascinated conference, especially when you look at how shade the world is changing so much right now, it's not that we have this multi poto. well that's brought subbing and budgeting. the multi pone, well this here is already here to stay and you know, the power mechanisms of the world is shifting east wasn't giving people the global south, the sea of the bricks as well. i mean, what about the, the deep context of this conference? so i guess in the view of what is multiple hours. yeah, yeah, i agreed roy, and i think the reality is this is making a lot of people very nervous in the west. and when you look to africa, africa certainly important to the west. you know, the, me least of scary funding piece of funding, trying to follow china as a broker, that they talk between the subsidies and they're trying to do the same thing with
12:08 pm
the turks and the syrian. so this is worrying the western powers, not because they want peace and in the middle east, particularly because they don't want to lose the momentum behind russia and china. the top soldier in china was at this conference. i use the platform to warn the wes off regarding the taiwan, taiwan of course the territory, the united states over it. he says is chinese territory and tiers. this one china policy, but over a fee then is advertising to send weapons and cause further if you like, ad disquiet in the region. also mentioned by survey, show you at this conference was the idea that in the, in the pacific step nasal, the north atlantic treaty organization is also looking to influence countries in the, in the pacific. just sense of alliance now, trying to open another front against china and russia in the east. of course, none of these narratives will be reflected in the western media, but russia persist in giving these platforms to countries who are previously hired
12:09 pm
in africa in the mid least to voice their opinions and treat them as partners rather than a master and servant relationship which i think is key to the future of breaks and multiple already with the rest of the ministry of defense has released the statement revealing the murky activities of the united states military. the ministry says that washington's office of pandemic preparedness and response policy searches for virus mutations to then use them to further its own interest to show cause in 2019 united states began preparing for a new pandemic. by searching for virus mutations, we did not exclude the use by the united states of the so called defensive technologies for offensive purposes. as well as for the purpose of global management by creating crisis situations of a biological nature. according to the ministry, washington has been a massing of various pathogens from its direct involvement with various bar lives
12:10 pm
around the world, which they say are for research and preventative measures bought rushes, defense of industry is not buying that. and they point out that whenever the pencil going, for example, is interested in any pathogens via the cobra, 19 or 80 and influenza or the african swine flu, they later somehow ends up becoming pandemic. a new sense to benefit from this, as we've seen time and time again, it's american pharmaceutical companies and they points out their findings points out that for example, that there is a possible collusion between big pharma and us aid via an intermediary company called eco health alliance. now they have been studying the diversity of that population since 2015, and they've also looking at mechanisms how to transfer a corner virus reins from batch to humans. and we know that just 2 months before the world ever heard about cobit 19, there was an exercise conduct about the johns hopkins university in new york,
12:11 pm
or in that exercise entailed sciences, transferring an unknown at the time strain of corned a virus from bytes to humans, of via pig self course oldest and the office that is now being open leads them to question why this is happening. and of course, but they also points out that the us government, for example, in may this year said that there is no longer a public health emergency when it comes to cove. it's joe biden himself last september said that the co with pandemic is over yet this july. they are open in this office of pandemic preparedness and response policy, which has led by a man who is a military combat surgeon and retired air force major job general. why, in addition to those documents have been uncovered during rush or special military operation in ukraine points. so the fact that there is a center called the us army medical research institute of infectious diseases actually place a crucial role in all this. and they're the ones who are collecting all these
12:12 pm
dangerous passages from around the world. in these biologics include a one and ukraine, correct me in the us army medical research institute for infectious diseases, has been involved in us biological programs in ukraine. the representatives of the institute actively lead projects code named you p one and you p h. as part of these projects the possibility of using and for pods to sprayed, rick sex, you take bone and set for lights as virus, as well as causative agents of crime. in calm go hammer, roderick fever, and also hunted viruses was studied. so that's why russians decides when this believes that washington is preparing to establish biological control, sort of using defensive technologies for offensive purposes. so creates biological crisis conditions and situations. and also there's out of concern about the people involved and all of this. for example, doctor anthony file, she america's lead in doctor who was the head of the national institute of allergy
12:13 pm
and infectious diseases. he has reported and made a lot of money from this plan demick and he's also the one who was adamant that when it comes to cobra, 9 seen it came about naturally. we have what was your claim because we're developing bio weapons and so they transfer z authority for bio security to one agency in the, in the acreage, as are called the national institute for infectious large disease doesn't run by anthony bouchee. so heavy file g called at all the responsibility for my weapons development. you've got at that time, a 68 percent raise from the pedagogy $300.00 scientists wrote president obama. and so you've got to shut down anthony. vouch. because he's going to create a micro will that will cause of a pandemic. and so obama sign and march maria, and shut down the 18 worse of allergies experiments,
12:14 pm
and on. and instead of paying that law to kansas algae shift that a lot of his operations offshore. and those operations ended up most of them in the han lab which the military and that's a chinese, on the people's liberation army. and uh, and then a lot of the month of the ukraine's there will be those of course it will say that these are just whole conspiracy theories or russian propaganda. but we're talking about specific examples, specific organizations. and let's not forget that washington has itself admitted that it does have why lives including in ukraine, and again, let's not forget just how terrified they were at one point in case their research there falls into the wrong hands and how catastrophic that may be. if it falls into ross in the hands, so what that research that was all about? perhaps this is what we're talking about. the director of the private office of nato secretary general has back tracked on a suggestion to see bland,
12:15 pm
to russia in exchange for membership into the blog, calling it quote, a mistake that's after proposing it as a possible solution to the conflict. i think that a solution could be for ukraine to give up territory and get nato membership in return. russia security council deputy chairman has reacted to the statement a. it's a curious idea. the only issue that all of their lead stairs trees are highly disputed. and in order to enter the block for, it isn't key of would have to give up even key if itself, the capital of ancient pros. negative reactions from authorities in calf were not far behind with the advisor to the ukrainian president's office, stating it's unacceptable to trade territories in exchange for nato membership. let's cross live to journalist and political analysts. john burley. welcome john. nice to see you. thank. thank you. thank you. so a nato official caused quite
12:16 pm
a controversy by suggesting that ukraine give up land to russia. do you think that this was actually the admission of nato's inability to help ukraine defeat russia? well, 1st of all, let's be very clear that you know, the white house is calling the shots here, right? so nato is just an arm of, of the white house is foreign policy. and the white house has made it very clear that they can do everything possible to defeat and destroy the rest of the veneration. they've been very clear about that. their plan to send more money, more weapons to ukraine, to fight. and as they see it to destroy russia, so that's, that's the context we have to keep in my mind as far as the statement by this man, are you perhaps who was just trying to test the waters to see the reaction, to see how the russians might react, see how others in the west might react or maybe just simply made a stupid comment and not not so that thinking not thinking clearly and so strangely because unfortunately this is another sad fact about nato. we have the most
12:17 pm
incompetent people in power, formulating weston phone policy, and the inside made them as well as inside in washington dc. so let's not think of these people as extreme as successfully bright and confident. they are not, not at all say, well, let's imagine for a 2nd that nato would accept to crane into the block if it gives up part of it plan . what's the likelihood that russia would accept such a deal? considering the fact that russia has continuously emphasized it wants to crane to remain neutral. i mean, this is one of its red lines. yeah. so obviously now as you said, it must, i will never accept this will not tolerate this and it, it shouldn't have to tolerate this because of the neutrality myself. i'm someone who work with ukraine for over a decade. and i was always telling my ukraine park is please become neutral, be a neutral country to not pursue this a ment, nato membership. otherwise you will face a concept of, of which is happening now. i was saying this to them in 2015,
12:18 pm
161718. 19. when i was working with ukraine. but sadly, we know, you know, with the course that they decided to take. so. busy moscow you must get, will not tolerate the situation. and again, this is not just any ukrainian government. okay, this is a vicious national review that go open, that glorifies nazi collaborate. so in theory, the west should not be tolerating this regime keeps, but for some reason, as you know, nato is very comfortable with supporting a openly pro nazi resumed. yes. well, russia sees this as a proxy war, and a lot of people agree as well. moscow has repeatedly said that nato and western powers have been using ukraine as a tool to fight against russia. and that this was simple. after all, do you think that nato is actually considering letting ukraine join the military block or is this going to be another care that keeps getting dangled? well, i mean, at this point, a rush, i cannot and should not trust the west, can i not at all, not at all. we've just seen constant duplicity and lies and misleading actions with
12:19 pm
statements by the west over the past. i mean, certainly over the past 15 years, if not more, i mean, just the whole notion of the expansion of nato is a violation of the agreements that russia and the west had going back to the early ninety's. so at this point rush, it just absolutely, absolutely cannot trust the west nato. the us. uh, and i think all negotiations are probably been pointless. i mean, that's, i know that sounds quite severe, but i'm sorry, but then, but nato again, nato has proven itself absolutely unreliable. and dishonest. well, let's talk about the reasoning why this is being said, because it's kind of interesting doesn't need a suggestion for ukraine to give up land to russia somehow show that perhaps kids counter offensive has largely been a failure. that yes, i mean, clearly it's been a failure because more than 2 months have gone by and they've accomplished what nothing except for taking a few. a few villages. there's nothing else to show for it. they expected
12:20 pm
a quick victory. it's not happening. the, the pentagon and other nato military's leaders to understand what's happening. you know, despite the western propaganda, the of the west, some media propaganda tries to spin things that same of all the, the cuts are offensive is going ahead. it's just a little bit slower than we expected, but the, the policy makers, they understand the truth and they realize that the situation is pretty much hopeless. well, at the end of the day, you're the russians, the rest of the soldiers that they understand what they're fighting for. they're fine to protect the lives of millions of ethnic russians in done, boss, encouraged me and does that for those reasons, the fight, they have to stand that they are the last, literally the last line of defense. and if you claim wins, there were literally slaughter millions of people and ethnically cleanse those regions. so i can imagine what's going through the minds of the rest of the soldiers. they are literally on the front line, preventing one potentially potentially one of the worst genocides in modern history . well, the,
12:21 pm
we've heard so many recent admissions from ukraine like their role in the crime in bridge bombing, the most recent one. do you think the narrative is shifting with nato suggestion of giving territory to russia? do you think there is a shift in the narrative too? well, nato is going to throw those options out and try to see what the russian reaction is. but, but as we said, russia cannot negotiate with the west, and it cannot accept a ukraine, even a rump, you create that goes the drawings, nato. so musket can't accept that at all. so let natal continued to make these overtures and draws through these ideas and see the rest the reaction. but i do not expect moscow getting just my personal opinions. i am not in contact with leaders in moscow, but i'm, i don't think moscow will ever trust the west again and, and probably sees no point to negotiating, negotiating a resolution to this conflict that would end in a row, ukraine joining nato musket won't go and accept that john for only journalist and
12:22 pm
political analysts. thank you, john. thank you. the. the african union has rejected a military solution to the situation in the year after tense discussion, according to diplomats, after the 10 hour tops, the union stated that it will disassociate itself, or mika was with experts suggesting that the block will find it difficult to use force without the effort, can unions approval, local journalists, timothy obese, who has more? yes. basically with that, the son of the applicant, you in the on, you know, not to support f was and it's quest when the invading is that what it's method through for us that goes to show the vision in the future. and you know, in terms of taking it proxy for the staff when it comes to, you know, the full in the shared business, not so in, in the, in the case of molly, it wasn't so in the case of like, you know, fast. so what she ended up in the, in the continental divide into the region, you know, people, so the courts seem to move by and for us to sanctions police there,
12:23 pm
but not support inside of the military's. and they've seen that, you know, what's been about strange, you know, not just us, you have the option, you know, also seeing top policy stance in the region. you know, criticized jobs, move by f last to in face. but it's minutes reports. we've also seen, you know, law makes 1000 nigeria to criticize us. step what, what is important is that, you know, the applicant unit on has also suspended. need sure, you know, from all of its activities, but it is not just going to get it along with the plan by hand for us to you know, enable it submitted to force us like experts said, you know, some experts are saying that i would make, make it really difficult for and for us to be able to proceed with a plan. meanwhile, new jersey, new prime minister, visited neighboring chad, which said it was committed to supporting that country and its people. however, tensions are rising within the eco last block as opposition. lawmakers from gone to or to the countries president not to deploy troops around new jersey or as it could
12:24 pm
conflict with their nation's interest. we got reactions from guardian locals regarding the situation. or if we don't have enough resources to even solve our problems, i don't think there's any science in, you know, going out to solve some of these problems. you know, you come to work and you work from like on most. it's always when you check your woods, it's too small. the moment you decide to drain should get is to find them like to become and you will become an enemy to not be able to. so i think is known as a whole new land. so. busy what so and but the key is that those of us who are living peacefully could be under attack tensions within the block are likely to play a part in the upcoming meeting of equal watch chiefs of staff, which is such a take off on thursday as a deadline to return, present, and presume to power is long past an equal watts's approval for the deployment of
12:25 pm
it stand by forces. military intervention remains on the agenda. meanwhile, the block has found support in the economic community of central african states, which has given us backing to the roofing of west africa nations over its sans, against the 2 government and gave me the nigeria and president walk on the show of solidarity. i appreciate the solidarity and support of president bohn go on the situation a new year. were working not to compound the problem. i understand the fear of our people on any form of military action. we're working to keep the sanctions in place and we're following them to the leisure. that statement drew a sharp response from nigeria as north or elders for him, whose members reiterated the importance of returning constitutional order to an easier and securing the safety of the house and president. before warning that any sanctions or military interference could be catastrophic for the region at large,
12:26 pm
the use of force against means year should be ruled out. it is unlikely to achieve the goals of restoring the constitutional order and improving the frontiers of democratic systems in west africa. and we'll comp pound the security into mandatory and crises in the eco west region. it is likely to weaken and further divide eco laws and provide greater access of non african interest into the lives of africans with negative consequences. for more on this, we now cross live to the northern elders form spokesman hakeem by amen. her team. so nigeria, as president, has made his intention to continue sanction in easier clear, do you believe that any of statement will change his steps while we hope so? it's not just any position. this disposition is becoming more and more important than i do that can negotiate on the how it costs and i do that and get more or
12:27 pm
without of this and that sort of discussions in the owner because sending troops introduce yeah. so yes, we think that, oh position with in france they just pushing on our president was also dependent on the vehicle. we certainly hope with that because yeah, the, the other option is just not on the table. while the forms convenor has also said that any further divisions in eco laws could replace a region in a precarious situation, could you elaborate on what he meant by that? well really the ecological entity by that means you have to remember nimble up because countries already and i'm going to a few of us as a sitting. i'm worried that today we have begun in unimed trajectory and that's what she couldn't union as opposed it. no problem is on the i think on this, we don't want to idea as to begin to see because of the old style substation and
12:28 pm
the supports the cost by more than 60 percent of all the meat. so it's, it's, it's a very difficult thing to do. we understand how do we support all efforts to shorten the life on the matri anthony bullshit and exit for the minute we support that. we do the being on the president bible and i need somebody a we, we do not think that of taking on the immediate edge the. ready yeah, we're all, this is going to be possible to try to defend the cost is which is the divisions and the cost. and it will just simply create great uh, access or non public, an interest to see what happens. and we don't want that. the what does a northern elders for m. c as a pass to a constructive solution for the current crisis? what would that look like? what it would look like. uh, because uh, allowing the idea to use the human leverage that it has and its relationship with
12:29 pm
me. yeah. no options that should be on the table now. now this is your home and extremely important and bedding loans on the relationship excellent permissions. i do have a huge influence in terms of what happens in the yeah i'm, i'm, i'm, was the general. so have been any and so much i'm not sure where when did you leave that echo on trust and trust this responsibility on that? yeah. to see that under the evidence on the ground. so just that it can be awesome . we have teams going into which of these young i'm meeting with the president's meeting with the ministry just as a lot of goodwill when i do that and yeah, but that's why we believe we should remove the, the, the functions that are, they're not supposed to be the big problem and is an impediment in that in terms of the windows? yeah. kind. it's fun. it's cool. hope it's influenced by the new year and it is, but we believe that it costs money needs to delegate this responsibility to that.
12:30 pm
yeah. now yeah, much consider that mutual option completely unacceptable, both the people and the one couple as far as the new streaming for every need is that adds the results that we designed you, it can be done by maybe i should be doing well, new share has emphasized that they want to prosecute, the former president and the statement highlighted the importance of securing him. so what were precautions could we expect if these 2, these 2 points of view continue to class? you know, i think what, what we need at this stage is to is to improve the big understanding of in a junior leaders that countries like nigeria actually reaching out to them and say, hey, this tool and all these talk you here time to be negotiate all the but what happens to budget to do what happens.
