8:02 pm
and sums up the major points made of the meeting. the you and the high representative for disarmament affairs open the meeting, who was talking about how the flow of weapons by both sides is not leading to de escalation. it is putting more lives at risk after that we heard from an american journalist who describes the us military industrial complex and the profit making entities driving the con. i'm here to as a us citizen who was witness tens of billions of us tax dollars. go to funding and arming a proxy war against russia. well, people in the us, ordinary people suffer from rising levels of poverty, homelessness, suicide, and economic and security weapons to ukraine. do not represent some kind of, quote unquote arsenal of democracy. as some in the us foreign policy establishment out as nato countries, i've already provided $40000000000.00 in weapons to ukraine over the span of this
8:03 pm
conflict. many of these weapons have landed on the black market to drug cartels, criminal organizations. and indeed, neo nazi and fascist elements, many of which now make up parts of ukraine's armed forces. now from there we heard from the russian deputy m bassett, or dimitri pole gantski. and he spoke before the security council talking about how this counter offensive that has been so hailed, has essentially made no progress on the part of ukraine. and he called it essentially suicide on the subject. brands are being forced to move in a very suicidal direction, have to be, hast of washington. here's what was said by the russian deputy ambassador. what's the address to send you through the system for 3 months now, we have been witnessing the agony of the key of regime within the context of ukraine's so called strategic counter offensive, which, according to western propagandist, was supposed to bring it a military victory for that purpose,
8:04 pm
the entire needle military machine was applied billions of dollars have been spent from the pockets of western tax payers. the only result of ukrainian counter offensive that even the west is forced to admit is tens of thousands of ukrainian soldiers killed and hundreds of pieces of expensive western equipment destroyed. the complete collapse of the system of ukrainian self government. the widespread corruption and disorganization now repel even the western mercenaries. they are beginning to understand that the only rule assigned to them is not to strive for the freedom of ukraine, but to become cannon fodder. now the russian representative also pointed out that you bringing forces continue to place anti aircraft weaponry in the civilian areas, which is illegal under international law, simply pushing civilians into farms way. uh, basically using them as human shields. do you documented other atrocities is uh that are being committed by ukrainian forces. busy western media has chosen to
8:05 pm
ignore and emphasize, but it seems that the strategy of washington is to prolong the conflict as long as possible while spending huge amounts of money on huge amounts of weaponry being sent in to ukraine. so now we did hear from other members of the council who spoke critically of russia blamed russia for the situation, echoing the standard uh, washington talking points. we heard from the nato countries, but it was quite a meeting in the un security council chamber, highlighting the danger of the continuous flow weapons well from ukraine to nature, more in between the latest part of the missteps of american foreign policy helping expos. then you are to go by to lecture prize winning journalist seymour hers. archie corresponding shayton bowes is behind if there's anyone who knows what's going on behind the scenes at the us state department,
8:06 pm
it's veteran journalist seymour hersh. he's just released a fascinating article, shedding some light on how what started out as a scramble to save ukraine, has now become a scramble to say careers and reputations of the entire ukrainian misadventure look set to become afghanistan to point o. first as high level source pull, no punches when revealing just how desperate the situation is with even the recent saudi arabian piece talks being revealed as nothing more than he had another pointless debacle. organized by joe buttons, national security advisor jake sullivan. jetta was sullivan's baby. the official said, just one more, but who is counting for the nations showed up all but 6, looking for free food after the desk to shut down and surprise, surprise, the impending collapse of the ukrainian project housing apparently limited the appetite of the state department. i did tater in chief victoria newland for yet more trouble making. she's turned up in these. you're looking to exploit the recent
8:07 pm
on rest there. but according to her, she is source. she didn't exactly like the results she was hoping for. the intelligence official put her remarks to the times in american military lingo, victoria set out to save the new share uranium owners from the barbaric russians and got a huge single finger salute. of course, when we think about the u. s. as proxy war and ukraine, there's one face that stayed with us from day one. and that's the all around good guy, us secretary of state anthony or blinking or tony to his friends. well, it seems totally solely isn't too eager to want to be front and center when it comes to the usual. we stand with ukraine photo ups. he actually seems to be preoccupied with other business these days. maybe tony know something that the white house still refuses to accept. secretary of state tony blinking warehouse key . i have the question of the official who said the blinking has figured out that the united states that is our ally,
8:08 pm
ukraine will not win the war against russia. the word was getting to him through the agency c, i a, the ukrainian offense was not going to work. it was a show by the landscape. and there were some in the administration who believed his so as the zalinski regime runs out a road and friends, it seems we're heading into that pre collapse phase where a messages of ongoing support can feel an urgent scramble to justify failure and lay the blame. and that is the key, every shame look set to be thrown on to the boast by the us. it will be the ukrainian people that will pay the price just like they've been doing since the start of this do proxy war against russia. another headline story top officials from the echo was block on the western african nations, have met in gallup, to discuss a potential foreign military intervention in nature. it follows a qu, there 3 weeks ago that sold the president to pose um, taken into custody by his own palace guard. we spoke with regional journalist
8:09 pm
embassy a, basically, it expands on what was discussed up there. is this gather a? yes, the meetings are back or some military cheese that has just finished part today and got ice expected to hold for 2 days. that's what, what, so was it spend, then it's proud in saying that, you know, it stands for a demo based the in the region. and that it sounds like nothing really. it's very clear about them. when or how a possible military intervention or innovation of nature would take place just yet . but that we know that, um, you know, local media reports have suggested that there's a growing participants him off, you know, a bad plan or it's in the meeting over the course minutes or to see an hour before i got out. you know where the meeting is taking place, and this just goes to show this grow in sentiment across the continent. you know, many african countries, many residents here saying that, you know,
8:10 pm
they do not want aircraft to interim fan in the matter of fact, you just said that they would interchange in, in the shower. we understood the problem somehow, at least that this meeting could be it meeting where of course, leaders decide on how to, you know, move forward from here. just continuing the point earlier we spoke with news producer, joshua, none at kwan, may i you are. i who joined us from down after covering the echo was meeting is the events essentially resulted in the creation of plans for a military campaign. the apple watch, as it were ready to commit all use all the means available to which to restore the country back to order. which means i get to forge this whole engagement. the military way is what is on the table at the moment. they seem to be a going to still get tons, but if you want to can be gentle, political engagement. however, the resolve of bank was,
8:11 pm
is actually to meet the military as well as the news. yet we're kind of aggressive for anything today. it's basically what one or security expense would describe as a military company club. i bet you of being a member of speech. that's what we all as a member of the united nations on the united nation. so if you look at chapter 7, the all the united nations chapter actually gives a it is, it is a ghastly useful tool for sleeping in resolving peace. and what we usually do, we're suspend piece, keep emissions. and of the troops on peacekeeping machine back on march 20 gauge. the other one is, i guess if you had a problem, i mean after today's meeting, i spoke to quite a number of people and everyone seemed to be unhappy about that decision about who was before a start by $420.00 tools that you wouldn't be the consent of the contribute test, which is the member states after the reports that would be cheaper wouldn't now be . and then we'll make that seemed to be maybe we should be of course be the issue
8:12 pm
on to the piece council. they will not receive that report. and then and gauge meant to be late and then a final decision will be made to just to put on another aspect to your needs, yours know at the receiving end of sweeping sanctions from many of its former partners with the e u front and some of the us cutting off all the financial aid to the country, while eco was itself impose restrictions closing borders with new here on suspending financial ties. naomi is not the 1st to feel the economic for sale of echo was it previously targeted molly burkina, faso and guinea with a barrage of financial sanctions following military cruise. there are 2 in laws. united nations has called for a few monetary and exemptions to those sections. it noted that for months, well before the president was listed, several 1000000 people were and are in dire need of food. and the u. n. is wanting
8:13 pm
the current crisis. converse in that situation. well, we spoke to attorney on global policy analysts from nigeria dunning, with a while. and who says that from the beginning, the west african region of law pursued the route of intervention. rather than the promising go, i've got it runs right from the beginning. part of the strategy for negotiation is to bring things that top of value to both sides. as you'll see people in the united states natal, i'm not taking those hot stubs. so what's the do but it was right from the beginning. ready sided that it was going to say ministry before they started negotiating, which us about resulted in so many of the delegations by this time. so it needs to be smaller and rejected. and this time, by maybe to, by deciding, remember to have my just because at the moment usually most find it all by itself. the generally supported by 3 or the applicant countries as you need to also
8:14 pm
understand that the board us the, the, about 61 of these borders that julia and these are the people in the relatives, religion of business in jersey, new jersey. so you already have a problem where the country, where the vehicle with jack comes from, might have a difficulty, riley around their support. they gave me here in the 1st place, really totally the highest. they kind of do it, but i'm still for example, she has views. ready mentor the west? well well i guess these are the higher they gotta do is to find this, look on police. yes, i'm grooves who create that kind of a conflict situation or they need you in the hope that it will make the gym in the general parking lot. but the problem with that is that if you look at africa. ready ask somebody to use the best in the last 15 to 20 years. be happy. see, this is so jesse, and the respective it is. so is a delicate environment. the minute you begin to 5 possible form, do you know that it will make that redeem on popular?
8:15 pm
you are likely to create a scenario that would escalate to the crisis. it was a cause if you, by any chance have the message which of course you may, that's how the baby's or to ask because spring just like we have the out up spring . okay, now the story, we are close the following to a i flush and the libyan comfortable between 2 of the countries, most powerful functions has left at least 55 people that are breaks all by themselves being a regular occurrence there. since a nato backed uprising caused deep divisions in the nation back in 2011, several live bloss marked on exchange of fire between the special determined sports which accessed the capital of the front to police. on the 400 and 44th brigade link to the b as defense ministry that the deadly violence came after the commander of the law, sir, was arrested shop ring. i'm already shaky piece. between the 2 malicious, some of called the scenes. the worst tripoli has witnessed and over
8:16 pm
a year in law it please foreign minister, has from the nato's operation a dozen years ago in libya, failure, one which brought the instability to the region that lead, at least i believe that it was a very serious mistake to let conducted be killed and might not have been the champion of democracy, but as long as he was eliminated, political instability arrived in libya and africa. well libby, a former italian colony is still a team s right now, suffering from the result of a french and british let invasion that killed its leader. no marg adolphe, back in october, 2011. and what did we get out of that? a flood of migrants. it's not like it off. he didn't warn europe telling french tv ahead of the nato bombing into the top of his country. that if he went down, then italy and france specifically would be flooded with millions of migrants because would be a played a role in securing and stabilize the africa and the mediterranean. and that's
8:17 pm
exactly what ended up happening. the flow of migration into europe is still a big problem with the death of hundreds of migrants and the central mediterranean . so far this year alone, libya has become a haven for human smuggling and slavery. and the launching pad for migration into europe and italy is really very new brenda, that as we've seen recently with all these, this capsizing in the mediterranean and driving of migrants. not quite the freedom and democracy that nato had promised. it is great to be in libya, free libya at midnight. tonight, a successful chapter in nato history will come to an end. you have already started writing a new chapter in libya's history. we acted to protect you together. we succeeded. believe it is finally free from being causing to break out from this rata to western mountains and to aaa. okay, sounds like he's talking about a whole other planet. we had to deal with gadhafi for libya to serve as a choke point of sorts for african migration heading towards europe. he promised to
8:18 pm
intercept any migrants who ended up in the mediterranean and send them back to libya before they could enter italian waters. but then it really ended up endorsing the western backed libyan rebels against, with all the fees and well, all bets were off for the libyan leader. for some reason, italy was just shots that could off fee was no longer willing to play ball. and i pulled the migrant intersection deal after julie started cheering for regime change against him, putting desperate people on a boat and pushing them off to sea, sending them to die and demanded to randy him is something very close to being another crime against humanity for which the regime will have to answer the western branding of those libyan rebels as heroes, just like the syrian rebels. he fought against president bashar al assad before detective and joining up with other g hodges against the west. in some cases or the c i a trade and back. so solomon lighten led the taliban during the us cover organs
8:19 pm
. the soviets in afghanistan in the eighty's and gave rise to al qaeda. we all know what happened with them. 911. that's all i need to say or more recently, like the premium as off neo nazis, western training and back to storing. well, it's to be continued all western back and all western tools of regime change, who then became, or risk becoming still taking time bonds that could blow back at any time against western interest. no saw that coming ages ago. gadhafi. now listen, you people of nato. you are bombing a wall, which student the way of african migration to europe. and then the way of all kinds of terrorists of this was libya. you're breaking it, you're ready. it's and you will burning how for the thousands of migrants from africa and for support me all tied. it will be so i never lie and i do not lie now . so there's another aspect to this tragedy. the french financial crime,
8:20 pm
prosecutors here in paris. i've told the french press back in may, that they will ask a judge to try former french president, regardless of prison for passive corruption, criminal association, the legal financing of electro campaigns and concealment of embezzled public fines in libya of lydia. so to her motives for i was thinking, darcy would certainly help to explain what african leaders had said, way back when about western refusal to even less than take charge of this. libyan conflicts on their own confident in the view or in light of a peaceful resolution. they'll wait 3 be to meet you on the top to bottom. the mission also to kind of so you have what everybody did go back of
8:21 pm
the bloods. so what's the takeaway here? turns out that italy did not stand up against its western allies to protect its very own interest in libya back then. and it continues to just go along to get along with pretty much everything that us lab, nato dies to the continued detriment of its very own interest. and certainly those of its citizens around the top diplomats has met with his saudi contra part on a visit to re out you know, as a mark the resurgence of relations between the former regional arrivals following a lunmark deal brokered by china earlier this year. here's archie correspond use of to allow me in the main line. it was foreign minister jose, not the saudi arabia, essentially completed the recipe for a relationship between july and we all last we and has already been
8:22 pm
added to the mix, the embassies and todd phillips out officially, the solid, important minister, are paid at his ford visit, was back to june when he met with the young man presidents ever raised the so no strip to real means that the 2 former or try and a joint press conference today with is solely counterpart for in space between one and we are on the right track. yet, and yet we witness the day that the relations between the 2 countries are progressing the right direction. we believe that the idea of achievement, security, and development in the region is an idea of that cannot be fragmented. we are sure that these meetings will help the unity of this planet world for his friends face all said that the kingdom hope to see it was president of racy, specific in the following king, size and position, which he had communicated during the june visit to get while i need to set today,
8:23 pm
that would travel so they can get the top diplomats engaged closely each way, security areas they have to use or they will launch enjoying to accommodate chemistry in the near future. we also have, we do increase their gauge areas such as taurus, transit, last, the air, transport, energy, and environment. so let's see. so the old grievances have now given way to a promising fraction which the foreign ministers believe that this will benefit nations and will also help establish security tire. we just looked at a lot of that. our meeting today is a continuation of steps taken towards implementing the agreement to resume and diplomatic relations which represents a pivotal platform in the history of the 2 countries and the path of regional security. so for up to the change, there is the latest sign in both countries, determination improve time and it has been happening really quickly since march
8:24 pm
this year with china next between the 2 countries to re establish there are times after 7 years are really hospitalized. prior to the mazda hosted military officials from the one i saw on the way of you on wednesday, one of the 2 sides, of course, a security officials from the 2 signs match with the, with each other to discuss ways to improve their military engagement on the 11th of the sidelines will be limited to security conference in model this as the former adversary's fab bang, opposing sides in or we use the wording and syria, and especially after the several times in 2016 found this to me, but the sony embassy angry over the kingdoms execution of the top. and now we see that there reconciliation has large, these 10 regional when they're wanting different, i said that one has not just mended times when we are also on the personal stations
