9:11 pm
by the united states of america. you know, you know, it gets come us from us there. we still get these ation use. it will not go to war against the people of gaza as we are fighting both of the enemy the times behind civilians like on him is we all defending valuables and we operate according to international law low. the idea is. busy i think minimize the um, to civilian population as well as defense minister made this statement after making his american counterpart who is an as well again for the 2nd time since 7 folks over when he's well started as offensive against her mouth and gals and a half to say, many of these words came as a surprise. first of all, despite mountain global criticism and condemnation, we some live in considering the idea of notes, reparation in the palestinian clave as an act of genocide. golan stress that is
9:12 pm
real acts in accordance with international law or another. 7 and he made was but as ro is fighting in gaza against terrorists and not the people of guys. and we can see actually the people of guys are those who are paying the highest price in this conflict. according to the most recent reports by house ministry and guys, i'm molden 19000. people have been killed from the palestinian side since the beginning of the idea of military ration in the probably student and clave including civilians. thousands of them, the health ministry says are miners and more than 52000 others have been injured. israel claims so 5 killed around $7000.00 militants, adding all the time that it does, it's best to minimize collateral damage. also yolanda emphasized that israel is wage and it's for in the gaza strip. i gave him us what is the help all it's biggest ally in friend, washington, calling it
9:13 pm
a victory. and that is something that many would rather argue why, because her mazda is still capable of sending walkers towards a israel, and that was the major goal of the self defense more or how israel describes it to eliminate the threats coming from her last and 2 months. on we see that the threat is still there from us as also controlling most of the guys this trip. still 2 months off to the beginning of these really military preparation. there more than 150 hostages as railways, and for nationals as still being held in captivity in gathered by him us. and again, thousands of innocent civilians from the poly student inside a dying there. while for the rest, for those why alive, it is true. humanitarian catastrophe, and folding in the in place. so all that is really hard to be described as victory . but water is clear and no matter what washington will be standing by israel despite all the questions that the world has. this is what the american secretary
9:14 pm
of defense had to say. the united states has been clear and consistent since from us started this war on october 7th. democracies are stronger and more secure when we uphold the law of war. so we will continue to stand up for israel's bedrock right to defend itself. and we will also continue to urge the protection of civilians during conflict and to increase the flow of humanitarian aid. integration is really a defense minister also talks about the north and the strength of israel see, is coming from his fellow over there, where the idea of has been exchanging fire with the miller turns for more than 2 months already. and it seems here again a 0 is rather than terminates to follow the path of war rather than piece on negotiations or anything. apart from that, we all determined to create a new identity, restoring to a security in the area, pushing back please bala,
9:15 pm
we will bring back the residence of the loss to the homes on the boulder. half the flu security will be restored. we prefer to do so via and understanding and showing that the boulder region is clear of the east and does not allow direct threats or falls citizens. if such a process will not be implemented diplomatically. we would not hesitate to act well this time as well. reports or immersion that age row is preparing to enter the southern lab. but on starting a new war where the arab neighbor a had in the past to major wars, are running deadly and devastating wars. so we can see that the situation in the region is getting more, more tens, and despite international calls for finally trying to find ways towards peace and increases diplomatic efforts,
9:16 pm
rather than military efforts is ro is moving the opposite direction, supported and encouraged by the us. always spoke to political commentator and contributor at all monitor ali was a key says the ministry of meetings, exposed to certain policy differences between the 2 countries. but every time you see an american official boost, i think it's amazing with these ready counterparts here here, this mantra again and again of israel is fighting a fight independence of the for you will juice of the fact that these kinds of statements, usually resume with an american audience, but i noticed, so you know, it's not what's, what's the contrast sort of box between gallons in west and there was, you know, a bit of a difference if you would like a gallon. it's referring to the fact that israel is upholding international law is you know, doing its best to protect civilians. austin, on the, on the other hand, while focusing on america's support biggest room,
9:17 pm
they decided that they will continue to vote for the protection of civilians. are they refused to be, you know, that simple gap behind the scenes if you would like continue, which is continuing between the 2 sides. this south africa's president has met with the local representatives of the jewish community to discuss the ongoing war in the middle east. he spoke of solidarity for the people of gaza saying quote, south africans won't be free until palestinians are also free. we use this opportunity to clearly set. busy out the various meshes that we have been taking both a n c as well as government to deal with the situation of unfolding in gaza in the middle east. and also to reiterate our daughter to the people of palestine for us. this is
9:18 pm
a matter of principle principle that is born out of our own experience are the people of south africa who struggled against an oppressive apart tate system. so. busy pickens will not be free until the palestinians are also free. press the pulse that has already met with the south african jewish board of deputies, as he's presidential visitors to discuss with the country on sundays. really for the scene in conflict at the meeting, the, to his for to me, to request relating to diplomatic recognition of these, running off the president to restore full diplomatic recognition of his route, including the opening. also, african embassy tend to v vi. and to assure that to these really embassy, victoria will not close to enable, but he's really invested as returns to south africa. we have withdrawn on what they
9:19 pm
prevents from is while and we have. busy busy they should come back for consultations and those consultations to you. so it only makes sense that to be placed in to meet with people, to see me inside official and support as after that meeting. and they say they are not oblivious to the reality that to those, to see no wrong if the conduct of israel have their way of intimidating black mailing and silencing those which highlands, if the colonial sic, the state of the strong and the soul comes off to is really far administered, recent he said it will take months to destroy from us and that is all on pedestal, on what continue with or without international support. now it is clear that to the class between from us and as well as really taking a serious 10 but so that the can, the does believe that to the store room to move in a bits of direction. and that's know if what should be spade to achieve that
9:20 pm
particular goal, we'll come get faulty to having us back. at least 111 people have been killed and more than 230 injured after a 6.2 magnitude earthquake ship north west. china is gone through province. that's according to reports that by state media, the epa center of the plague was approximately 200 kilometers from the provincial capital of alonzo. many areas of guns too, as well as neighboring shanghai also experienced tremors. water and power supply outages have been reported in some villages and rescue operations are under way of the agents incumbent president of the file to assist. it has been re elected with authority saying he received almost 90 percent of the votes. this will be a c, c is 3rd term in office and will last another 6 years. authorities say there were no significant violations during the voting process. election was held over 3 days

9:22 pm
a full men military commander to bring security and stability to the country. and they said that no civilian can guarantee a stability in this coming phase. and then looking to him to ensure that the conflicting doesn't, doesn't spill over into addiction territory. really heard from people on the streets of cairo. they fail. so you see is the only one who can keep egypt a safe. i love the heck, i mean i voted for l. c. c. he's a decent man. i love him. he built egypt and gave us new good things for our country. i'm happy that i'm witnessing a good era for egypt. the positive 7. what's all about the election, the results reflect the reality and show what did you since want to seize the most capable person to protect our borders. and she has an economic vision several, most of all very l. c. c is the most suitable president for this time, domestically and internationally. i'm sure we will now see more prosperity in our

9:24 pm
live in the country and so see the current development person cc said he's going to uh in the next should uh, in the office with give a lot of attention to democracy, to development of democracy in the country. in the past, the web page, the board services now the, the country is it's mainly secured instead like now it's, it, we have the lead stage which is improving the, the democracy in the us in st. louis have signed a defense cooperation agreement that will provide washington with access to 15 military bases in the nation. us secretary of state says the deal will bolster we caused nato's inter operability. today we will further strengthen our
9:25 pm
security bonds by signing a defense cooperation agreement in just a couple of minutes when it goes into effect. our military is, will be able to collaborate more efficiently and more effectively. our troops will have more opportunities to train together and culture. nato's inter operability. according to the finish, defense minister, helsinki is an important, straight strategic ally and the trade partner of the united states. number of other needle members, including lat, via lithuania, norway, in the stony. i have already signed a similar bilateral agreements with washington and denmark and sweden are currently negotiating their own. meanwhile, during an interview with vladimir putin said in response, russia would have to create a military unit for to, to protect, to the russian finish border and use the shooting. well, not the shooting drug, finland, inter nato. did you have any disputes? we think or dispute, including 33 on dispute will result in the middle of the 20th century with no problems. but now that we'd be,
9:26 pm
we would no create the leading good military district and concentrate certain military units. they. why do they need this? it's just nonsense shariska create the 1st and we heard from international consultants, earl rasmussen, he says they bring in it will cause finland to lose its sovereignty. that means probably selling more us weapons this morning. uh, natal compliance weapon systems to finland and mean the increasing a symbol of the welcome is uh, support structure. um, but at the same time, that's uh, as president who instead basically standing up leningrad military district, which here be basically gonna have a much larger for so long finished order. you're going to increase the it's going to have increase tensions. if anything, the security posture is going to be weakened, but, but yes, we will. uh, whether you have a benefit economically. yes. will finish people benefit economically. nope,
9:27 pm
they will. uh, it will cost them additional to uh, increase their own security for you to the build up of uh, a russian forces. i think this uh, this loses the there's, there's stopping thing. it puts, uh, put more depends on the west. it kinda lock so us into, into their whole military structure. it definitely uh, decreases their own some sort of entity as well as their own national security to most of the power is want to remove hundreds voting rights within the blogs. so they can secure a deal to send more money to ukraine. let's start to think about the proceeded to suspend the voting guide, sometimes that our lawyers must find lead on the ways how to stop the destruction from both outside and inside who is all been working for food. him
9:28 pm
and why is a you doing nothing to stop him? can you not see how the e u is being destroyed from within? based on that quote, there are sounds like what you saying is the democratic descent within the you now means that you're working for food. and basically what's happening is that there are some lawmakers here in the european union whose nose is our way of enjoy. because on gary and prime minister victoria or bon reading, the blogs engagement announcement with ukraine by threatening to veto and agreement to start succession thoughts that required a unanimous. busy of all 27 member states, where the last minute a promise to unblock billions in you funds owed to hungry that had long been withheld, unfrozen came through on the eve of the boat, and well or bond, decided to slip out the door for the boat itself. when german chancellor all off, schultz stood out and suggested that form on top of the side for a bit to show was objection. while the rest of the block voted unanimously,
9:29 pm
jo would've been an even better way to show your objection. no, actually voting to your objection for there's also the other issue of hungry refusing to unblock more you funds for ukraine, which really kills the unity, buys it, go off, is constantly trying to draw. i'm not particularly around and crane. so democratic is we are, some folks in brussels are now making noise about finding a way to exclude descent from vote altogether. we are working very hard, of course to have a result of wednesday's an agreement of 27 members states. but i think it is now also necessary to work on potential alternatives to have an operational solution in case that a, an agreement by 27. so you and i mean me, t is not possible. well, that sounds super democratic don't like to resolve, even though it just find
9:30 pm
a way around it saying that what could happen instead of voting you budget cash for ukraine is that states now could contribute to a fund for ukraine, voluntarily pass the hot around. so to speak, so they can all spend their own citizens, money and on fun, can't stop them, which totally isn't going to make it. so this ends of all the other countries wonder why their own leaders are putting the bill to their own seemingly endless economic document when it's entirely optional because for bon wouldn't be. so now the western process, quoting and you diplomats, who are talking about the blog, potentially applying, and you treat provisions that would allow hungry to be stripped of its voting rights for violating you legislation. and it just totally doesn't sound like course and or anything not, not to mention corrupt any way the criminal and didn't miss a chance to chime in on all of this latest you drama.
