the, the, as in bob way, something's e u passenger is saying, european observers are trying to interfere with the presidential election results. also head on the program, the bricks and the s c o r. proper international coalition. and they will help in a stand against the us to switch arms around this president states as country is interested in becoming a member of ritz park. lee in an efforts to oppose us, you know, law for elizabeth focused on high court. suspends a 3 year corruption sentence against former prime minister in wrong account, although keeps in custody over another case will go through that

open self is not heard from the previous rough. after daring to praise russia's historical legacy, while encouraging a group of young russian catholics during his speech and since the fly from our enter, i'll show you centered moscow. this is our to do to help you with this. i mean only around this president. how's expressed a desire to join the bricks, grouping it, but humor, i use the say it would help to around stand against washington. germany, i was the yes i'm say the solution to our problem allies in pleasing the us. so he or that to get to the bottom of my answer to them is that we will not wait for their approval. we will not put the economy of our country and the livelihood of its people in their hands. bricks and the s c o r. proper international coalition study and they will help in the stand against the us as who gemini saw the

for more on this, let's cross live to the law just getting ready there and shot yusef joe loudly. it is a live broadcast. we do want to talk to now use of what's the overall message coming out of care run on this? i'm give us a sense as well. you said, what would a run joining bricks mean for the nation of the or of course. so this has been crazy, is man trust inside the office 2 years ago. he keeps saying, the west, the world is nothing but to the west. of course he keeps saying that he says, he says that if i should not tie its economy to the fates of the nuclear deal and closer ties with the west. of course, he says that there are new destinations give on, confined to deal with and to trade with. so this has been the one in presidents main focus in his foreign policy. and he has been trying to materialize that he

really believes and has a foreign policy, his new foreign policy that i use for so his speed assessor has several, he did not believe in such a policy or hasn't ronnie put all his in a how all his x, of course, in the basket of the j. c. b o a or the nuclear deal he signed with. it was back in 2015, but president crazy says that if this is not gonna help, it was economy as the west keeps flip flopping on its promises. we see doubt that the united states withdrew from the deal unilaterally back in 2018. and we say the sanctions against that loss of racing has established very close ties with countries that have never been on top of the list. otherwise, foreign policy, like some of the african countries who are the one who president paid a rare visit to um, some of the south us out with some of the african countries, of course, like kenya and bob we around the month ago if i'm not mistaken. i where he established very close ties with those countries. he signed multiple agreements

with those countries. i'm the one who president also visited a lot in america. this is very where of course they want has had this close relationship with the some of the latin american countries, including cuba and oven as well. but now during the reset administration here, we have to establish even closer trade ties with those countries to circumvent be with sanctions until render us sanctions effective. this, as some of the observers have said that it was ultimate way out of the current economic close is to resort to a deal with the was and to revive the 2015 nuclear deal. of those observers say that one cannot really rely on new alliances such as breaks or the seo, the shanghai cooperation organization to save its economy from the us sanctions. but right, you see i asked exactly this question to raise the i asked him about during his

press conference today that if this is true or not, then here's what he had to say. your ons economy can be effective next to these economies. iran is a capable country. foreign countries are fully aware of your ons role and geo political position in asia, including its ties with the persian gulf and central asia in the states and iran has specific capabilities. hence, we perceive its presence in brooks, the seo and regional coalitions as an effective presence. but it is a 2 way road. we will be effective for them and they, and it will be the same for us more if they saw the case rather rule. so it seems that one really pins hope on these alliances. the brakes and the shanghai cooperation organization as a means to neutralize the western sanctions of the sanctions, have tried to isolate the wall and internationally. the sanctions have restricted

the wrongs economy. it was banking system of the ofac office, the west georgia department has limited it wants access on the global trade of those sanctions have lot to get one from dealing with other countries when it comes to the use of the daughter and the euro. so now this new initiative, your process, it welcomes the initiative by the breaks alliance of to well adopt this new joint currency that tries to ditch this out or move away from the dollar dominance. and invent this new currency joint card as a courtesy by the rug countries to engage in the international transaction and international trade. so popular one says it was not the 1st dad withdrew from the nuclear deal. that was the united states that i 1st described the deal and we stayed as the sanctions against iran. so it is up to the united states. this is, as a president raising mentioned today, it is up to the united states to remove all its sanctions against iran,

before iran comes back to full compliance, as you know, back in 2018 with all the x u. s. president. donald trump, us crop video um we instead of the sanctions against that one, it wants to quit, talia tory steps to try to scale back some of its canvas. then city j. c, p. o i or the joint comprehensive plan of action a by a enriching uranium at levels beyond the peak. we kept based on the jcp away and we've 60 percent um, up here at the level and it's we uranium enrichment. so it won't says that it was if you hit the west that 1st i withdrew from the nuclear view and now it has to remove all the, the sanctions against that one before 11 comes back to full compliance. so 3 easy so that while the j c p away is no longer a priority and it was for him policy the, the doors 20 oceans with the west over the revival of the year deals are still open . here one seems to have really transitioned from reliance on the western

and engagement with the western countries. one now has been trying to establish closer ties with its old friend and also a truck. it is trying to mentors with some of its old enemies like saudi arabia. it is really nobody really imagined a couple of years ago during the administration of pro harney has several honey that could be wrong, could come back to negotiations with saudi arabia. and now we see that the 2 countries are resuming their diplomatic ties and establishing and inaugurating their embassies and diplomatic missions and one another's countries. such fast paced change phase. we know that you rate to give us not updates use if we truly appreciated or to correspond to yusef jelly corruption charges against the former pakistani prime minister and run count how been suspended along with his 3 year jail sentence. however, mister account is not walking free, as it packaged on the court has ordered him to remain in custody and charge is tied

to his obligations, claiming a us plot to austin him from office. a local journalist sent us the latest this lot of odd high court has issued an order on tuesday, a green light for him on han to be released from custody. however, he has been arrested in connection with the cipher case so him on han will remain and i took prison. meanwhile, the judge of the special court released an order which has him on han will remain in prison until august 30th. this is one of the reasons that he might han was not released after this time about high court verdict. also on tuesday, the court has given major relief to the btn a chairman and his appeal to suspend his sentence from the lower court. the court suspended descendants in order to use immediate release and the judgement that was prepared earlier on monday a. 2 a new court hearing is set for tomorrow, wedding saying, well former prime minister ship usher rates from the decision to be suspend the 3

year sent in saying it's didn't mean that the case was over at the start of this month seminar and can was arrested after he was sentenced to prison for selling state gifts, a charge which also bumped him from the political activities for the next 5 years. now, they are currently more than a $150.00 legal cases against them, including corruption and site meant a violence and other issues. mister ken denies all those charges and states. he's a victim of political persecution. well, we spoke to him on ken's international affairs, advisor and former like a sunny cabinet member side bihari who said the leaders detention is illegal and the new developments are raising fears that are forced faces. an endless delays of the case that has been held back and re arrested you can see in prison is the see if that is the official secrets act which um, which everyone saw and, and actually last week that the president fox done. dr. od quality tweeted that he

never signed. and if you watch any little maker in bucks on any main stream legal advisor, he would tell you that the act is not in place. it hasn't been constituted. and it hasn't been passed yet somehow. and monica and the phone prime minister, has been illegally detained on an act that has not been passed were worried, obviously for a safety for his life. that this is going to be an ongoing occasion that every court case things will get delayed and more, more court cases and cases will be piled on to him, which will inevitably try to keep them behind bars as long as possible. so i think there is a preconceived written script, it's, it's a play book that's been used over and over again and bucks on. but again, it doesn't solve anything this time because the leaders that it was used on previously didn't them on the same support the demand con, does the country we believe. and we are absolutely certain that when it goes to the supreme court,

this judgment will be completely thrown out. an amount of hon uh will be acquitted from his uh, 5 year ban in politics and his 3 year prison sentence. that's why that keeps coming . the delay and trying to get it to the supreme court. and that's why there are other angles and other cases things going on to him to keep them behind bars for something else. because everyone knows that this case won't stand. i've had international disputed cases in u. k looked at it and they said that the legal process has been badly violated and it won't stand a day. so i think this is why they need a new case on him because this one will be thrown out in a month on will be back in mainstream politics. okay, let's turn attention the program to africa, where as in bob way has some and e u. i'm busters over a domain report by european observers about the way the recent general election was carre died, right claims. they're trying to discredit the nation with, quote, baseless,

unbiased accusations. zimbabwe finds it disturbing and unfortunate that the e u electoral observation mission deliberately issued a broad statement full of misrepresentations and allegations in large part the preliminary report was not based on the actual observation of the election and misled the world about the conduct of our elections but for more on this less cross live to look a report, a keep baptist in the nation's capital city, keep things clearly heating up. take us through what was a ledge that brought such a strong reaction from zimbabwe us. all right, things so, um, this is what some of the things that were alleged and our coats so that you also alerts that while on election date, the e. u. of the you assessed and loudly claim that the election process was accomplished by significant issues regarding the independence and transparency of

those above the electoral commission. that is the 6 the 6 missed opportunities to increase public trust and integrity of voting and results management. that's what i've said by the chief observe of missed the custodial even in the don't to say the failure of exec to provide critical electrical materials such as paper ballots resulted in many pulling stations opening with several days leading to an increasing intense up must be in some, in some locations, the u. m. also noted that the central role of the do this or in the process given on president high number of pre election court challenges pertaining to both the rights to contest and validity of all team to go test some which should remain under zone. that's what i've said by the chief observer, the, the observe, observe a team also noted that, you know, they present a votes of with a range of view points. but there was a length of click of a level playing field,

particularly regarding the freedom of assembly. this is what's the u m. o 's of us quoted. so how then go on to say that in, in a statement on monday the us state department re fits to implement to re an unacceptable a text director did the election, observe us from the southern african development community. the united states is engaging, need us to see all concerns, including what this means for the international communities. nothing's efforts to reengage somebody's government. so and then what they all also the but then china then reiterated that it is to the principle of non interference in other countries . internal affairs. this of the china referring beds of countries should not interfere in the elections but be, but should just be that observed the elections will

include all your questions. you can, we have noticed some reports on some disputing the election results. it is all hope that politicians and bob will put the people's interest 1st and result differences properly through legal means. china to us to the principal of non interference in other countries into analysis. on case we heard this sent in the immediate aftermath of the vote from the opposition leading to fears of own raft. tell us what the situation is like now what some 48 hours later i are. okay, for days, hours of to the re election of the incumbents. i can say that's the situation and the atmosphere has come here, but it's intense though with heavy police presence invisible areas of town. however, the opposition, i should say, have refused the outcome of the results. then they are left to 3 days to go to the constituents constitutional court. as most people here don't have an appetite from

process to. this comes up to some of the polling stations, and most of the opposites installed open legs due to the fact that the valid papers came late for the president. then however, elected an instrument that allowed the effect of both of us to have an additional 12 hours of voting in the affected areas. but also the ccc will have to have solid evidence if they have to go to court. that's who would suggest that this elections was stolen. okay, very interesting indeed. we'll see how the situation on falls case. thank you very much. live from her are a local journalist, keith baptist, the well with african increasing the choosing its own independent path forward relations with asian partners. that's becoming more and more important than the defense officials from nearly 50 african countries have gathered for the 3rd china african piece on security for it's part of the president. she didn't pings global

security initiative, essentially, which set side aging principles for managing conflicts and helping establish peace and hotspots. a c, g t, n news correspondent with my colleague grocery shamore earlier. this is a part of the effort coming under the framework of the global security initiative, promote it by a chinese president shooting the thing to keep that in mind. this is an ongoing process of communication. so the previous one, so we're now on the 3rd one, the previous one, the due to depend on big was held online and the 1st one is in 2018. so this is an ongoing dialogue. i think one of the key message being to talk about here is actually development can help and guarantee the stability in the region. so what they're trying to come me the message here is that china is actually offering help and africans economic development and helping them to really to then minimize those factors that might disturb the social order. so this is what china is offering help

in terms of peacekeeping and speculation of whether china is about to expend as military influence on the continent. i'll talk to expert um from the academy of military science. he's a josh outdoor, he's such a no, it is not such a case. it's just because 1st of all, to ensure the economic development of the region. second is to pretty much on a peace keeping an awesome it was your presence in the region is actually under the united nation frame, was to make sure that the peacekeeping operation goes through part of this uh, security for him, with all these african defense ministers and of course, the chinese officials to you say the main priority is to, to bring development to africa to bring stability to the region as well. of course, we all know to, well, what's going on in west africa these days with these ad. but again, a fast so and molly, i wanted to ask you, if i may, the chinese defense minister is supposed to be giving a t t speech. i believe that is going to be happening today if i'm not mistaken. do you know what the chinese defense minister is going to be focusing on with his

speech? so the speech actually already took place in this morning. so some of the key points that he mentioned to mr. alicia when also our speak counselor. he said that 1st of all, china is offering assistant africa. do not have any attach political breakfast. that this is a key message that he mentioned that what he is minister lee has talk about 1st so far, no interference in african affairs of what he is trying to say is the, the country china. and also is especially in defense affairs. they will let african countries who sold their own matters with their own ways of solution. this is just a platform for dialogues to share some of the experiences. china is once the biggest developing countries, so this is, it's more of the form is more like a place to exchange ideas. to facilitate this discussion, coming from the rounds of discussion that already is just before the law

school has praise. the words of pope frances exulting rushes legacy while delivering a speech to young russian complex, encouraging them to preserve and promote their culture. you are the heirs of the great russia degree, russian of saints of kings, the great russian people with the great of catherine, the seconds of that great enlightened russian empire of great culture and re comenity never give up this legacy. you are the errors of the great mother, russia, go forward with things which you may have issues queer story, the positive nose, russian history and that's very good. it is really deep. it has deep roots. a task is to carry a heritage to a young people to remind them of it. and the fact that the positive sounds in unison with our efforts is very encouraging. for a positive speech to young believers took place during the 10th meeting of catholic

youth in st. petersburg, the fonts again liter chose to admit the portion praising russian heritage from. it's the websites i tell you, one of the word screw criticisms has to come you crazy to send to. it's a shame that the russian great paul ideas, which in fact of the costs of process, chronic aggressiveness, consciously or unconsciously come from the lips of the pope, whose mission you know, understanding is precisely to open the eye. so for us on youth to the destructive cause of process, current leadership, the full and responsive vatican said that by mentioning great russia, the pope was urging young people to preserve and develop fresh cultural and spiritual heritage and were not praising any quotes imperialistic logic of passengers we spoke to french, political and social come to your own personal, who is the western agend. this does no toner, with the opinions of russia that aren't wholly negative, that many are growing tired of that approach. lilies i think is that obviously

the message of the book west was most of these pages and lead us kind of down the table raising benjamin's on. and if i do that, you can divide that you have any such attention. but because the minute you said something about pressure, about the good, you have the music above the judge and then you're going to the level pull put dean of pull the ocean of varies now. so, um, nobody has ever said that if you please american judge of any understanding american deals, and i mean it's completely ridiculous. i think the but after that because they don't have any strong emotion to the detriment duty. and i mean, you can was using both and that's because of the role and then so then you use level training and the, the supposed to be plutonium, but you have no connection to train and it only supposed to have discussions where people don't have the questions people have a, you know, it's a big county to be, go to these

a lot of sympathy for her. sure. and once i decided that she's not just putting that you have to wait, but the whole notion of hastily hush and go josh and music. that the backside insights and so ok, let's take you on to the front lines. the dunbar swear the russian m o. d has released funded showing high precision strikes on a ukrainian artillery supply point. at least 30 trips were killed and 10 vehicles destroyed in the done yet script public. moscow said it's intelligence was able to quickly track kids forces and provide the necessary information for the strike us in law in the neighboring lu guns republic, russian troops are pushing forward near the key ton of crime. and i know that's reported the left at ukrainian strong holes exposed to most whose country attacked in the nearby har calls region ortiz, eager to down of whose near criminal has been looking into how the russian forces get behind the front lines and seize ukrainian weapons. this room is

a weapons but favors everything here from ammunition on calibus to grenades and to transmit solve some very advanced sniper scopes are here to pretty much any weapon that you can imagine chances. you might find them here. but arguably, the most interesting piece in this room is this more tough because it used to belong to the ukranian armed forces. here are inscriptions in ukrainian. this one says as of which is of course the most notorious. and then from this new nazi battalion, this says death to enemies. and here is an attempt to drawing a tried and which is one of ukraine states symbols. this is, by the way, the type of shell that this more to use is just the beginning of the story. how this move to fell into the hands of the russian special forces. you wouldn't just stumble upon such a weapon in the front line,

french depositions. i pushed several kilometers deep behind the lines, and it was almost, it's impossible to build a solid line of defense neither way that will be gaps which detect as a place to one of the enemies approaching upon the territory that where detection systems we encounter them. we've got clips to hide from the samples and without combat experience, we successfully go past them there and back again. every step can be there last. the ground here is a suit of mine's fruit, flies and booby traps. as i saw this smoothly mistake is enough to blow the cover of this entire group like using a flashlight in the wrong place. at the wrong time. hey

selma image, it reveals an unsuspecting enemy. one shot, one killed, then a grenade, finds the stove, pile of mortar shells. not to feel as though we had the oldest to find a place, a deployment of a fine team that was costing our troops daily. we travelled 4 and a half kilometers at night through an area dense and land mines. we took out 9 months and 3 booby traps before coming up on the fly team. that crew, consisting of 3 soldiers was instantly neutralized. we also designated their family stores. when we sold them all, so we decided we needed it more. we took it and on the some rather heavy. so i managed to get away. it's not the only trophy of the smart battalion. well, it's a, this is an example of western weaponry here. it says launch system and law and to tank guided missile during the process of carrying out our duties instead of bronze

sca missing each as well. after storming the positions, when we moved on to the positions, we found this sort of a band and equipment when the enemy retreats, they don't have time to take this, the even a band and they're dead and don't bring them back. and well, this kind of expensive equipment, we also periodically find it happens. it depends on what kind of opponent you have before you, when we see it's not in small quantities. this nato made miss all system is about to be used against its form will ukrainian own is to get done over posing from the don't boss. ok. see to the west fully supports key of strikes on crimea, including areas where simple the ins reside. that is the claim of the ukrainian presidential advisor, who at the same time, distance, the country from numerous drone and tax on the russian. people now ship it strikes on occupied territory with russian infrastructure is located. can we do this?

yes. today, there is an absolute consensus that we can destroy everything russian, for example in crimea, will remind you that a year ago when there was tracts on crime in everyone's side, no, no less, don't do that. today, there is an absolute consensus among the majority of countries that support us, that we can destroy everything russian in the occupied territory. as for russia, let's make it clear. there are drones of an, an identified nature that the crime in peninsula is frequently targeted with drones . and miss silas with the bridge to the middle of the key target. last month and a 14 year old girl was orphans and an explosion on the crossing which killed both of her parents and left her severely injured. moscow. holes p up directly responsible for the attack. the latest comments from the presidential adviser brought the swift condemnation from russia's former president and the deputy chairman of the security council. dimitry may be of ukrainian perpetrators have announced that they have been authorized any strikes against anything the russian

such as crimea. if this is true and there is no reason to doubt it, now, it does direct legally relevant evidence of the wes complicity and the war against russia. a refined causes valley and for russia and opportunity to act within the framework of use of belgium against anyone and everyone in nato countries. we spoke to the chief editor of finish and use analysis publication in the late to who's of the view, the green light from ukraine to strike, crimea, gives russia the legal right to retaliate of these 4.7 for a very green ald. look for watch what can happen next. i'm very scary stuff because we have seen the use know, intelligent as flights of very watched around all these tracks which has happened in crime media and of the.
