will not tolerate the global arrivals, the headlines are not the international of areas, right? the rushes for a minute to sort of get off for all for arriving in south africa, or along with the leaders of china and brazil for the much anticipated bricks summit kicking off today. so sit back and relax, you can catch all the action with all special coverage from us studio at the venue in john is about how they are calculating in ukraine is likely to be among some of the top topics for discussion at the summit from south africa's fuller, i'm positive to america, shared with us his thoughts on the prizes, even addressing the role of certain western hawkins behind the ongoing events because of the nature of this war that we're dealing with. and you know, on the same thing, it's quite clear that the single, for example,

the ukrainian drug and attack on the most of our region has been fortunate, as we understand with no casualties reported by officials also in the program of china and iraq moving towards greater cooperation in the economy, trade and infrastructure as baghdad is distancing itself from the previous part, the tuesday just after 11 am here at moscow. and today's, the day the history books might very well be talking about in the future as big things are happening. so the count down has been gone to the start of the 15th annual brick summit. taken off today in johannesburg, are the major j, a political event, attracting world leaders, politicians, and bright minds from all over the world with a, a just multi pony world or at the top of the object

the, the russian foreign minister associate laboratory friday. you can see coming down the status, he's arrive and john his book, touching down at shortly after 8 am local time. the following video was a shed by the russian for a ministry spokesman. maria's a honda of delegation. it was welcome with our folks down since before heading to the venue. and the 5 heads of the briggs countries are set to make the opening statements. the russian president will be attending the summit, but only the video conference. now the chinese leader arrived overnight receiving a warm welcome from president serials and my phone. so that's off to the arrival of the brazilian and president lulu desilva and south africa's 4 minutes and the lady, pandora was also there in attend, will be uh, indian in 5 minutes. so he's still on his way to drive his bug. but ahead of his

departure, he praised the roll of bricks and promoting tides between nations that in pursuing a more balanced world or breaks has been pursued a strong corporation agenda across various sectors. we value that breaks has become a platform for discussing and deliberating on issues of concern for the entire global self, including development, imperative and reform of the multilateral system. the summit will provide a useful up with cdc for brakes to identify future areas of cooperation and reviews to, to single developments with bricks being widely seen as a platform for the promotion of multi priority. many countries have shown their interest in joining the local correspondent from target. yes. in con reports on how bricks membership would benefit cobra. for 7 decades, turkey has been a nato member states, parts of the western military block, but now it wants to join another alliance that many would consider diametrically

opposed turkish presidents are the one, has expressed his desire to join the bricks group of emerging economies, which instead of securing western had gone many, actually seeks to promote a more just and multi polar world. he initially commented about that 5 years ago. and now it seems his country's membership bid is really gaining momentum. if the breaks leaders take us in the name of the platform would become brig st. well, ready in the g 20 with those 5 countries. i wish they would take the necessary steps to let us into the brakes. turkey, it insists that it's neutrality is essential to tackling regional affairs. however, western towns reports have not been comfortable with uncle was desired to conduct an independent policy with partners both in the east and west. for example, when turkey had decided to buy russian weapons systems,

washington did not hesitate to impose sanctions against its own allies. these are very powerful sanctions. we hope we don't have to use them, but we can shut down the turkish economy if we need to. and while the united states was busy threatening nato's 2nd largest military power circuit, it served as a reminder of how fragile relations with the west can be us sanctions against the are yet more evidence of the arrogant attitude of the us towards international law and the manifestation of their legitimate, unilateral and closest measures that the us has imposed for many decades all over the world. i do not think it is favorable for the reputation of the u. s. as a participant in internet, the only go stations including the meals, with technical cooperation. the west approach may be a stand alone reason why on correct is interested in

a shift in policy as are to one thing. so the timing is just as important where determine to make use of this historical window of opportunity for our country. after centuries through t and now has a chance to rise once again to the top, we go to the global system. brooks stands to offer opportunities relating to global economy, trade, investments and financial cooperation. and perhaps a stronger alternative to its political relationships with the west destination party. and it's something we did ask some people and talked to if they would support that countries membership in brooks, many saying they would, you know, then has to get it. but we want to key, it's a bmw with the brakes countries. it's beneficial both for trade reasons and in terms of enhancing of our choice. this guy does it, cassandra has no business is accomplished, and the big sectors with the businessman, politicians, we don't see any direct impact if there's an effect on the big players they would

want to join if it's beneficial for us as well. we should join to took care of it, experienced to kia, should be a member of breaks, in my opinion. this could be good for our country, sending our currency to them and trading with them could be obviously be beneficial to the time, the member of nato. and the time the member breaks public speaking. and this is not gonna commit the member of nato, it is not going to hurt to tease relationship breaks because one is for security and defense reasons. other one is broadly for economy. reason, this is how the countries are trying to build their foreign policies. now these and this is not gonna change the course of the one countries policies, but in the long run, they kind of have the, the relationship with the kind of countries, let's say,

to choose economy. and cultural lead can be great to match which breaks nations because all those members right now, but he is, he'll russia, india, and south africa is very close to turkey, economy, and also culturally then most countries. so tell me crates, you know, uh, i will say number for breaks the low side from financial cooperation. the costs of the new crane is also, it's helping the agenda. we discussed the crisis with the former south african, i'm about to go to america who actually labeled at a proxy war, waged by the collective west against russia. you're gonna wanna have a look at that interview with all day on all t dot com or on i, or as well that odd c as well. the meantime, a very short preview for you the,

when there was a decision to most things sort of the security concept because the collective west could not have the way that. and they decided to take the meta to the genetic and assembly, which is our 1st event that at all they need to. and none of us to see that to own their own site load the right side of the city. and therefore, what we're doing is justifiable in the world is with us in all those eh, there's a new, she's that we approach that doesn't really know the reason for having a non binding size energy or an a c. that situation like that one, which is also reflection or was afraid of the security concerns to take a service funds that really didn't precise me because of the nature of this war that we're dealing with. and you know, understanding is quite clear that to say,

well, for example. and of course said edward to take a decision as to where we stand on these issues. and once we decided to take go a decision we as a country and became singled out a $193.00 countries vote says what i love them, vote for many of them. the others i've stayed like us as vote deans. what do i want to get to what the set does it go forward this way? so everybody's descends on us. why are you doing the service sitting at that example? so we have to take all the sect does seem to concede that issue of members. people think sometimes people think that we take this decision mainly and truly on the basis they forget that we also have a history that will be so many interviews in the coming days here on off the

internet for all from the latest. 15th annual break summit in south africa, and there's an awful lot of moving and shaking going on. we'll give you the straight, direct coverage from the venue itself. the for now on the program, the russian men, if your defendant says that you crazy and drone attack and the must go region was earlier fort hood the, this is all from the city of cross no gorgeous canoe, the capital away, one of the drugs were shut down and no casualties reported with the regions governor saying the lost way from the drones, full damaged cause and the windows and the residential building. another drug was shut down and the i've been tough school district. and 2 more you avi's were taken out and that really ends regional, according to the russian m. o. d. now the russian military has repelled for

a tax for ukrainian troops in the article from new guns regions. according to moscow officials, a russian forces also advanced on the could be on the front line with the support of aviation that not that area. and of course, as the conflict takes its toll on locals, volunteers are doing what they come to ease the burden on the residents who are living in the complex on the correspondent reports no matter the towns of who business and came in. now i'm a will within reach of ukraine's artillery. this risk has 7 traditional logistic on supply chains. humanitarian aid volunteer is often the only hope for the locals. here who comes here all the time we serve in this area. children, as i am older, said, a secret only for their sake is life worth living. please guys, horse standing and waving flags with us, the hotel you weapons in their hands. there are real heroes. i consider them here

of smoke myself. they are not afraid to go out there and glad to see us. are you just to help these children? because this terrible conflict has left them without parents without childhood. our task is to win as soon as possible in order to give them victory. cause boots are fully stopped with everything from foot pools and food to smartphones. children here aren't exactly spoiled and got a quick place to get freebies. around and everybody. all this stuff is handed out in the most centralized fashion. cereals, candy utensils locals are provided with everything that can get them through another day. such events often become targets of ukrainian shillings. so no time should be wasted. movement was making them look like who brought the social items for young mothers, who due to nervousness from the constant bone being by the printing not seized,

no longer produce milk. we broiled the right formula so that their children with northstar for get sick, as well as personal hygiene items, household chemicals, and necessary for packages. this has come from the citizen. so for us, from ordinary people, patriots of their country. because typically bring this help, we truly, every 2 weeks won't stop until we win. said bob boy, as i said, to choose its presence and with around 24 hours now to go until the po, polls opened all across the country. hardly 11 candidates officially approved by the electoral commission. the main runoff is expected both to happen between 2 contenders. incumbent president emerson, number 9. god. what leading these on who p s party came to power in 2017. that's also the form, the head of state resigned the following political tensions involving the military, which impacts the current president. the other kinds of this is a all position liter nelson. tell me, sir, from the citizens coalition for change. came 2nd in the previous presidential

elections, gaining 44 percent of the vote. now ahead of the polls, over 10000, gather the show, support for him. some of the saying they've had enough of the incumbent leaders, rules the change starts and bob, which we're tired of using and stuff new thing. this is going to be able to do many, many, many, many, many, but you see it would use in us. what do i put as well, the deputy spokesperson for the citizens and coalition for change policy? so at the opposition is focused on protecting the interest olds and bob williams, especially when it comes to natural resources. i think the polity has the support of many's and bob, we're excited by the possibility of trying of the

we have to have who oppose the lending potential for our country. we have been doing almost 3 or 4 at least a day, and 10 days of the machine office pro social contract between them. but when vote does and believe that she qualified book and those things on me. so there's a lot of confidence that there's a lot of excitement from bob with, with the judge and loves, and bob with look forward to doing that as an opportunity for somebody to go into a new chapter in the past and 43 as of since elections and up with leaving it is up in society divided with this call and you'll feel legitimacy because of congested election. but for the 1st time, we expect that it will give a peaceful transfer of power well into the new government. and symbol is expecting of that and remember that the troopers have it bad for goodness and show me size. i'll send and you know, different sectors of society that include the military in terms of the transition in that or in the transition. because most of the feelings that would have been in

the public is that it's simple. she comes to undermine disagree with the forces which is not defect. and that's been confirmed by the lead that you collective of to policy. and of course issues that are lent, which is the biggest issue involved with, and we'll see on the present me. so we have attempted vertically that we're not going to temple at all with the lead given or not as bob was because belinda form was potential political necessity in our country. and we said we are there to make sure that we control because every send, the buddies in project was the issue of flint and the issue of boardman one vote. so we are there to protect the ident and because of deliberate and struggle, and we've asked him that once we assume, what does it tell me? so let, the government will give title to those. we have been disabled nor led not square inch of these and populated is going to be given at to the imperialist or give said to the any for the ones that they're coming from, the west on the east. these mobile,

it belongs to this and bubbling people. simmons with the minute over his listings or for people. we have said we must be the 1st people to benefit from one that drives us is not for in us. and the people that don't belong to our people, it shipped to country. so that is given a political momentum as to what it is and possible. clarity owns the ability on the to proceed government that present me. so he's coming to make sure that is in bucklin progresses so that we make the lives of those waiting to sit for kind of better. but other than to undermine them. up ones have confidence that if elections have to be held free and fair, these going to be changing these kindly, remote buttons that also have confidence that the power must be plan set in a peaceful manner and fashion. as an alternative government, we are very clear that we believe that power must become said piece it fully by respecting the will of the people because the mop was the closest and democracy, it causes no democratic means they must be a government that is bone out of the collective silly of the people that is

expressed to the ballot. so it's in buttons have confidence in the election. is in bub wins of yes. do you have going sense about how electrons are being conducted? that's why we phrase consists with the quote machine is going, since we've been all of the quote, what they do said is important in depth. i think the low for the bit them into or for future and the stability to o'clock on. so this is a big issue, knock on the elections must be free and fair elections must because level as in about points, i put a bit to come up in the numbers and vote for the government of their choice. we also offend, isn't bump, winds up being the nation or community, particularly inside to get an african unit. that we must have a free and fair election to live in extent. that if the election is over, the losing time did must be able to come back to the do we know, and we not be able to sit on the table and think organize the role of the lose that because they just what it takes to, to tell who we are building a united country, we must be able to united citizens. is that putting some up was one of the

important but what the duties and the deluxe kind of responsibility is to make sure that we bring these content together. because we have been divided as a country and with mental commitment is to pursue that election must conflict the will of the people. so that to be governing authority with a super c or that the political party must be able to replace the fuser cycles of exclusion with the literally fee to us cycles of english. the earlier, the incoming president also mobilized his supporters, addressing them in the countries capital. the ones against the 5 ends during the election and denied accusations of repression, intimidation, and all sorts of other tactics of use the guns, but the opposition that is, as involved boons across the country, are expressing hope for a calm election cycle. and just the ad suite and you

can watch that's playing for the piece, you know, initially and that's um, what's the point of view? got play the flute that the priest is pretty baby non issue. well, a representative of the office of incumbent president, the amazon amazon gag was, says that despite the western sanctions imposed on to and bob with the current government has managed to ensure food security or it's people the this to us is going to be very, very important. the thing that you do the when election that actually comes after you uh the public. this is the beginning balance. which of these, of course, to do with the how the, the, the world this is love way,

especially in the sense we have it to no. those they legal functions that'd be posted on us by the doors, but a she does like the wisdom. well, i'm going to get some never be happy with anything. definitely do you have to be of course enjoys in this country. no running into under know those enjoys most of the bringing steve, this is activities into the country. they don't have to talk about developmental aids. they took up a to a full handouts to help people. so they blame the government for the eh, producing enough for to see the citizens. they disappointed that to zimbabwe that they wanted to destroy or divide in terms of the midst of equation. if mine is too many mates in a,

in the air, the 15 the and if you have this um activities progress was in bubble. you self sufficient for them. but with self sufficient in which the bubble is, is developed. major product projects such as the word construction, maiming new minds of big was selected, reflect the development of the problem in this. every mean you in it was a, i mean the results. yes. there is a level to own. you know that they've actions. know we have the record to observe as well, around the world, including those that detect on us. and we know we have friends know the restrooms will be there, the child is there, the african regions that will be there? they'll also be looking at the, at the end of the process with

a view to coming up with a it was shipped to of issue on how we conduct the since i've been doing this for over 40 years now. and then there's nothing you to, to, to really what about in terms of the implement this in terms of for elections. but look, we know, as i said, just come to cause trouble that the if no problem with that they can do whatever they bought or do. but that we have g is mobile, is that they know that he does a, they know which part to be below 2. which pipe what they mean depending on which type of boat and democracy they, they know. and others really just said all settled good bye to speech being a need from those that to do like us. so we ended up business if, if they want to come pain the, the, the, they, they have the,

the laws inductive. i look for laws allow people, one participant, this really not any at the end of the evidence for a minute for easy but the way it works whenever they try to use the owners themselves. we, we, uh, if i like the buttons and the we are also guided by the web guides and that is the constitution. so wasn't gladly about that. they can come beam is much it we want, but if the key bins plus i buy people and dues above with and that they would when is it a level that no, i meant the probably the 2nd doing that i will be close on patches on the 5th, and that is, is it very unlikely properly shifting my presence, he's on the ground. got busy right now. i'm

a vice president account company. now the entirety of it is on because it gives you people when the team is busy, one social media and the know what that is between the dashboard we're talking to people. people are sending the west seeing the development of this in the country. the which of those interviews with officials from both parties, the head, it was in bob boy's elections throughout the day here on, on the international or on our website on the dock. so china and iraq moving towards a great, a cooperation with the economy, trade, and all sorts of vice infrastructure as well as that is the message coming. i have a meeting between the rocky president and the chinese. i'm boss of the in fact, it's important to strengthen existing relations between iraq and china, especially in the can nomics and trade in the field of developing infrastructure

and services and expand the horizons of joint operation in areas of mutual interest in a way that the chiefs that come on interest of the to friendly countries and people chinese scheme to develop and build distinguish relations when they rack based on the historical depths and full results and has achieved thousands of chinese workers and engineers working at rack as well as chinese companies that today have important projects in a rack for the rocky president of the she the highlighted, the many investment opportunities into rob, noting that improving services for the population is a key goal of aging bank. that cooperation is certainly accelerated over the past decade through the chinese belt and road initiative. china has revising investments in energy and infrastructure development for the post will reconstruction of iraq. well, we spoke with the panel of guests from iraq on china. we set the main goal for both countries is achieving a mutually beneficial partnership. as a, we have

a very good, the investment is january. the crude oil changes is the number of 3 or 4 that pops out of the oil and demanded east, especially from europe. we have been raised to the budget until 414th and exporting, get net. and now with the china from 88 to the dns is increased by 30 percent 222-019-2020. 1 of the obstacles we have is the, the, the us to the, the don't accept this kind of a corporation road the chinese because it will affect the economic goal of relations and investments between they, us companies and side york and the country you want to have an independence or a situation that should have the multi corporation, multi international, the company or countries. and now we can have the will be sent as a younger we give a good assessment for the chinese relations with us. and that's a huge investments. and the inside of europe. so why that will give

a very huge potential to the rocky government, the rocky policies, and then kind of the intensive the for the future. what are the main areas of cooperation between china and a rock and how do they benefit china? well it's, it's mostly uh, infrastructure and the benefit is 2 fold. one, a rack is having the 3rd largest reserves of oil in the world. obviously uh, in china, a wants to make sure that those are available. there are the largest importer, but the 2nd and larger concern is to have a stable, middle leased. it things have been ongoing downwards, ever since the weapons of mass destruction, of the false falsifying evidence which causes the invasion of iraq. it's been very, very tough going for the economy still has not recovered us. aid is minuscule compared to what is and as necessary. plus they were saddled with a very large debt, quite uh, at this juncture. um,

they are looking for any way that they can uh, rebuild their economy. and china is willing, its not offering any kind of, um, you know, demanding any kind of adherence to ideological things. it just says, let's trade, let's be part of the belton road initiative. but that is the live program for this hour here, analogy international. however day one of the bricks summit is today. a special live coverage is kicking off in less than 2 hours oxy international is live in jo bug at our customer studio at the bridge venue. and the summit of the con the .
