of police, the world, the to the president of ecuador has declared an internal armed complex to be seen in the south african nations due to unrest, spike criminal troops across the country. the israel released as fresh videos of his operations and strikes on gaza 11 on his view, a secretary of state visits tele fee to solidly affirm washington support bang, united states of america. all your more all due to the fact that you're standing, steadfast with his route and bangladesh elections attracts greater scrutiny this time from the us, which has granted the recent talents we pull results as this on us,

despite international observers calling them fair and free the i'm rachel ruble live in moscow. you are watching r t international. we start with breaking news in south america, where the president of ecuador declares regime of and her internal arm, the conflict in the state which follows the introduction of a state of emergency. it comes after criminal groups launched attacks across the country to us for that shows the moment arm demand took over a tv studio and the nation's 2nd largest city. before cutting the live feed for the ecuadorian army has reported. they've been deployed on the streets of the capital city kito. it's also being reported that militants are attempting to take hostages in the local university. the alright, let's discuss the situation though, is that good during political analyst, ramon mendez reversed who joins me live. a remote into the president of echo door

has implemented a regime of internal armed conflict in the country. following that mass of unrest can explain to us what's going on here. yes, right now, the current president, president, is the only one more. one more time, the improvisation of his government. he has no plan in place in order to combat the ever brian. uh, other types of businesses that have the have to do with narcotics and a have to do with a mac and what, what are these ations right now? he has la, any type of control over the police over the armed forces. as to the extent that these, these equations are infiltrated greatly by, by this type of uh, searching. right now they have a precedence and every single part of the country for the most part. and they have such a such power that they can do things like cut off by a transmission less setup, opposite side of may or ships and town halls all over the country. so right now the situation that the president has announced that there's any turn on conflict,

it is worsening, but it's very, very true and there is no exaggeration. so what is going on right now? and sadly, this is why i'm a 52 percent of a good one is voted for that, but it's not yielding any good results so far. and as far as that see on ecuador state tv channel, and um, arms, men taken prisoners hostage. what, what, what do you make of that? well, they, it shows that, you know, they don't fear the states. they is a failed state. it will, there is no questions that they can face this, this different on groups. they know that they have implicated the institution, is the subjects that, that is going to be no type of responsibility for them to pay. let's not forget that this is not an isolated event rights, one of the strongest hands of the mafia and it was, it was just escaped prison a couple of days ago, some pressing say he escaped as, as far as the 25th of december of last year. so there is some type of renovation of his on goods going on. there's a couple of the had a mafia boss is,

are right now presumed dead or have escaped to have a long time yet this one that will be remaining here in the country right now. has pretty much all the of the, of the main control of what's going on. so hopefully let's, let's, let's assume that there isn't any alter ryland's functions to this attacks. none that really require any type of, uh, grabbing of power to any of the sorts, but rather just the calling of attention to it, to the media, to the stories and letting them know that, you know, they don't want to be bothered that they want to do what they want to do, they, they know that the state doesn't have the forces right now have to come back up. so they, they're trying to use as much of a make. i'm as much of this moment as they can get and respond to in regards to that prison escape. uh, there was a state of emergency declared in the country because of that. are these situations related? yes, yes, the final is just an emergency. it's,

it shouldn't be any news. they're having continuous state of emergency is going on and up with or doing that in the, in the was a presence it presents shipper also the radiator molasses, emulating what in his presence, should they show that there is a continuation of the same right wing your level of tendencies and loss that they, they promote right now. the president is more occupied in promoting a referendum to, to conceal his power rather than a given the state, the apparatus to, to combat the any forces to combine in this case on, on boots. right now he is more occupied with invested over $2000000.00 into his own ad campaign for the re election because we have elections in february 22nd 5. this was an extraordinary election that we had just recently and he's more occupied with distracting media, distracting the people with this referendum in which one of the things he wants to do is bring back pacino's into the country,

which has been claimed by many the dollar rice economy live capital or with a huge passes of, of mafia dealings and stuff like that to have a overly available procedures and stuff is just another way to longer money. so not only is not paying attention to the things that, that he should be the way, not all easy, preoccupied with more media, spence and whatnot. but he's also facilitating and putting in law or at least suggesting to these referendum laws that would enable this situation to work since and for these armed forces to have even more power. not only as they're already doing the institutions but more money laundering power, which will they didn't mind their cousins and their buying power inside of the country. but also just helping the president of doing that for those the one is helping them grow and solidify their already taken power. there are urls for reports of criminal as invading university, and one of the regions taking hostages and staging attacks in the city, including on police stations. oh,

what else do you know about violence has taken place right now to see where i'm located in the apartments of me on the coast, about 3 hours north of by a field where this events have happened. at the local university, it has been shut down. the schools, elementary schools, high schools and such that are operating in the area in the afternoon time. they're ex, they're making their students go home, you know, waiting for it for everybody to exit the building right now. uh, everyone has had a reaction of, of emergency of everybody's calling everybody, you know, uh, family members from outside of the country that i asked broad that we have a huge presence of united states. um and in spain and energy, particularly i have been calling to see if everything is going on. this would only also excise would be the situation that she has going on right now. where over 300000, it was the ones that lead the country through the very end gap and lead on to mexico in the us, in the past year, 2 years. so there's only a accessories that the folks 60 chasing back with or has the lack of security,

which would be one of the main things you know to have a, an operating stay is not there. there is no investment into education. there is no investment into any type of, uh, a government agencies. on the contrary, what the premises and right now is the win is promoting laws that were benefit the private sector as us as well. not only through the referendum but through the urgent economic law that he passed a couple of weeks back. so there is no single feature that have sat there can have any good answers for the echo during people's at least. president obama is a continuation of president lasso and moreno and right now the news as a happened, this is still something that is going on as we speak. they're still going on. they're still going on of more places are being taken by the armed forces by this, the surgeon forces rather. well, let's hope that it doesn't get to uh, to out of hand. this is not the 1st time in the past couple of years that uh, this roots have taken universities. they have done so it has been out of the us in

the past year and so and oh, to other places. but right now they have done it as such a scale that they know that it is the time to attack if you will, or to act in order for them to get to their interest. and right now what we've seen is a full scale wide range of pretty much nationwide us all on the state institutions, educational institutions, and anything that, that can symbolize that if you take it, we have no power to state such as a tv station. so as this is going on, we hope that it does is tightened into any more dangerous levels, but it could go. ready either way right now, and the way the government is acting is very precarious and is very worst. i'm. so that's how that these those and escalate, but probably escalate very easily by, by tomorrow. right. based on some of those previous incidents, what are you expecting to take place over the next few hours? i would expect another minutes to at least do some type of display of force even if

it's just some sporadic act or, or act of show would some arrest, you know, was uh uh, sitting down of this, of this takings there there. oh, probably a handle going on right now in major seas, so at least some of them to, to be calm down or to be stopped completely by the police will show some type of, of response if the government does limit themselves to make comments on tv and social media, and there is no tangible actions that will be seen as, as weak. the government has an interest and you need interest in to resolve the situation the what, the best way possible because they are the cause to re election for we are in our pre electro a year right now. so what i would assume is that they would put a lot of energy needs to stop eating, coming down the situation right now. but beyond that, i doubt that they have a plan that can continue with the log medium in long term session,

solve this situation. it is normally, it is need deep into these issues and they are not here, nor the cabinet is here to do any type of actual results for the country. just recently, 2 of the cabinet members were invocation in argentina and in europe, when the country's gone through such a, such a hard situation. even the president was seen running on the beach on the 1st couple of days of new year. so, you know, very nationalized where very, yeah, there's nothing going on here. uh so like i said, there's probably going to be a, just a show of force for the 1st the next 24 hours probably by this date, by this, the forces. but i doubt that there's actually any plan beyond anything, just sporadic and as the days. all right, ecuadorian protocol analysts ramon mendez the reverse. thank you.

turning now to the latest on the conflict in gaza or the desktop has passed $23000.00 and according to the gaza health industry. and as us secretary of state anthony blanket arrives in israel. the idea for at least the footage of its operation in the palestinian enclave. residential areas is really solid. there is are saying, firing weapons during ground operations. well, these really navy strikes out guys of territories from the mediterranean sea in the north. israel has launched a series of airstrikes on 11 on claiming its taking out of military on for structure. the international humanitarian organization, doctors without borders, says con eunice. shelter was targeted on monday and reports for people were heard including a staff member's 5 year old daughter who is now in critical condition. central bags that has also come under as rarely shelling and the palestinian health ministry says at least $57.00 bodies. and 65 injured were brought to el aux the hospital

over the past 24 hours. now that's on the enclave has now surpassed to 23000 since october 7th, according to the palestinian health ministry with over 59000 injured, 8000 missing. and over 1900000 people displaced local journal assumptions. shalanda spoke to us from the southern border city. a for alpha or more attacks were reported overnight. the latest news in golf off uh is what there is um, is there any s like uh, barely morning around for m a. m tiers, dish and house a lot of people a little display status to use our fire trying to find a place to drop off off the uh, the wide a ground dictation by uh how. how big by the height of the humidity in a situation in the open areas and other mossy areas where the id off house, the palestinians to shelter there's thousands of tents and there's thousands of

children are thousands of all the and thousands of women, women's staying and sheltering m at 10 smart as prepared for winter. so it's very cold. and right now, winter it is started and more challenging for the palestinians. bellows, teens phase most challenging is increasing the number of displaced people. if you drop off city, that's means there's problem with food dropping with water problems with a lot of things all a sudden and you start burying the bronze of the medical disaster. the say the children charity says at least 10 miners and guys have become empty to use every day. the young are also a part of a 7 times more likely to die from an idea of bombing then adults. and according to the humans, children's fun, 9 out of 10 infants under the age of 2 face quote, severe food of poverty. here's the story of one child whose life has been shattered by the war. the for. so i had this child mine,

i lost both her parents and she was taken from onto the rubble to the indonesian hospital in northern gas. um, unfortunately, they couldn't provide the necessary medical services that resulting in the child coming to nasa hospital via the red cross. initially, nothing was made about her because we'll have so many members had been killed in the war. and guys, i managed to identify mona through the internet. i went to nasty hospital. we saw that her eyes are injured, as you can see. and she also has a jewel injury which brought her to intensive cap. we want later to receive the best possible treatment until her unite with have surviving sista. we request her medical transfer outside of gaza to receive treatment. the most crucial aspects of the past and his, their eyes, so we want to preserve mona's. additionally, we dom on treatment for the child stool. as the child cannot eat or drink staffel, we request a transfer for treatment. this is the simplest right for human being to be in good health. the secretary of state and they blanket and has met with israel,

a president isaac hertzog during his latest middle east trip, or it's august saying to the us for it's steadfast support. i want to say united states of america present by then, and then everything is fresh and then your secondary blinking for your more all call of duty for the fact that your standing steadfast with is around the whole. thank you, mr. president is always great. we value the president's leadership in these incredibly challenging times. the is really public, gave a cold reception to washington's top diplomat. relatives of the hostages to remain in the last captivity gathered outside the hotel, were blinking. that was heard, so to demand the release of their loved ones. about $130.00 israel and foreign hostages are still believes to be held in garza by the militants. but as the

invasion on does, it escalates public resentment is also mounting worldwide, while anti war demonstrators heckled us. president joe biden. during the campaign speech in the south carolina church, you have to choose there's no light light. there's no past friend, this darkness, the understand i understand the passions and i've been quietly working requiring working with these really government to get them to reduce and significantly get out of gas power some top is really officials are not in step with biden's quiet diplomacy. finance minister beds allows northridge has shocking lay referred to the entire population of gaza as nazis drawing and raged

reaction from some us mainstream media post with the jewish supplement should be established in the territory of the gaza strip, so that there will be a jewish presence there for a long time. so the terrorism does not grow there. if not, 13000000 nazis in gods. if we want to destroy us when they get up every morning, and we will wake up in 10 or 15 years to a new october 7th. to me and it's of course the population of gaza. so take that in for a moment. $2000000.00 quarter low nazis and guys. and so babies 2 year olds, 3 year olds, old ladies, all of them, nazis pro, is rarely media and the west is now questioning. prime minister netanyahu is true intentions on as war effort and gaza is reportedly spring on the idea of offensive and does it in an attempt to stay in the office while facing corruption charges. is really supreme court recently ruled against the prime minister's judiciary overall . and we can do his power struggle and he was active as

a group. americans for peace now, says the biden administration is making no effort to end the middle east violence. continuing this, deb was taking a war post as unacceptable risk for ease real goals and civilians and the entire region for the sake of the security and wellbeing of civilian some, israel and gaza. the biden administration was pushed israel to bring about the immediate cessation of hostilities and people from war to peace making. well, i certainly welcome it. honestly, i don't find it terribly surprising. i think, you know, most of the world's population, including many jews, are just repelled by what's happening in gaza. it is a genocide and um, and so you know, naturally, a lot of people oppose it again, including many jews. and i think also for design is they see quite rightly that israel is really destroying its credibility while you're starting to see in the

mainstream press more honest assessments of the devastating civilian casualties in gaza. even the mainstream press, which has been very defensive of a visual, has come around this starting to talk about the fact that this is the most deadly conflict we have ever seen. certainly since more and more to you've seen articles in the associated press saying that the washington post saying that the rate of civilian deaths or something you know, again, unprecedented certainly in, in uh, again since world war 2, even greater than world war 2. and this is a sea change, and i think that again, israel has a problem that their p r is now not working for the 1st time since 1948, a browser based, a journalist sponsor, schumann has reported extensively from the enclave since the start of the as really a mazda escalation and has discovered his facebook account has been suspended.

earlier, we discussed the issue with mom's social assuming himself. and i did post the 3 or 4 times a day together with them on 6 or 7 of the different social media platforms updates . hear from us about what's happening sometimes 1st in those pictures. so sometimes videos of the mediterranean work that you have doing here. uh, sometimes it just updates uh, providing use the people involved to about the latest self. what's happening on the grounds. and then yesterday i was, i wanted to post them. oh, i had an interview with us. i have with the stadium, gulf casting, coughing, gbc, talking about the all over a 100011 june. that is see it and laza. and while i clicked this post, it said that my account was suspended for 24 hours. you to uh, restrictive content. well i, i heard uh, you know,

a lot of other social media and so what's the result the father joined that is true and also complained about them. accounts being shadow bands, being respected, being close down. um i had a couple of tick tock accounts. that's where shut down my have to goes, stop over. that is to get, i've also got the balls, i know how to do work on it again. and so these things do happens and unfortunately it shows us nobody. i'm a chief of the so called the tree world. are you concerned that if you keep reporting on social media, that you will be suspended again, perhaps indefinitely and, and what is your plan for how to deal with this problem? as you say that many of your other social media accounts like take talking in spam have. busy so been suspended in the past, it says into the unfortunates multicultural forces us to be more creative, to find a distributions and ways to get the truth out. so we need to create the back of accounts and let the follow as know about about them just in case that gets the

band or cancer or whatever. so there would always be challenges. what's is all that we would all this overcomes one way or another and as a bangladesh or the us appears to be trying to sway the recent problem into re election results by branding them as dishonest r t correspond that runs and charm. i dig deeper into the story to jake as he knows me to come back in mama this off to winning an election, which so a his to are recruiting new water thrown out. but this when this come back because it was surprise for anybody really. why is that? because back in the when, but the, me not position thought the inbound with these bangladesh nationalist, spotty b and b needed now and avoid quarters. the elections this off to us on $20000.00. all the position members was sense behind boss by the who is he not government for organizing. nationwide protests against a government against the cost of living prices, the economic crisis,

the be believe the see not government is responsible for none. the less with this with jay, because he not gets a 5th consecutive to him. and also she also becomes the longest serving for i'm in this step of box of these 2 been getting congratulations messages from across the world. but no, the us, the us to now has been silent and now it seems that the elections held in bangladesh were not fed. and they wouldn't not free. let me on the line to this after us observe of giving a shuttle thoughts to the bundle, the selections, calling them fair, also calling them free. now remember, on the elections ward monitor and by around 127 international observe was also some 59 for them. showing list has now said that if the nuances and satisfied they are willing to try and de stabilized funds of these. now this is something that she, because you know herself has previously said, she's basically said that he was trying to intervene in bung abuse and tell him of

the politics and that the us was trying to the top of how long the lease, remember it's by sweet agency please between to ation, supervisor, india and china. it's not enough. so the implication of bundle of these elections has yet to several weeks. people check and get to all the details back in the us. donald trump legal team has presented arguments, saying the former president should be immune from prosecution, is charged as trying to illegally up and says 2020 election last accusations trump is labeled politically motivated, i think is very unfair when a lawless is prosecuted by the bi engineer. so they're losing and almost every numbers came out today that you happen to be

present as we say this happened with this whole situation when they talked about democracy. democracy, donald trump, is set to go on trial in march on charges of elections version of the allegation is that while he was in office and not viewing the 2020 election as legitimate, he missed used his power. and the allegation is that he tried to subvert the electoral process in the united states. now, this ruling uh, and this legal case could be pretty big in american history. it would be the 1st time that a former us president has been convicted of crimes. and it would set

a huge precedent as you heard just heard, donald trump said this, we opened pandora's box. now trump's legal team essentially argued uh that, uh, from their view. uh, this is not a legitimate prosecution. this is politically motivated and that donald trump is certainly not the 1st former us president to have enough areas, reputation to authorize. the prosecution of a president for his official acts would open a pan doris box from which destination may never recover. could george w bush be prosecuted for obstruction of an official proceeding for allegedly getting false information to congress to induce the mission to go to warner rock under false pretences? the president obama be potentially charged with murder for allegedly, authorizing drone strikes, targeting us citizens, located abroad. the attorneys, uh, their argument they presented was not really bought by the judge. the judge said that, you know, former us presidents are not above the law, their actions have to be in compliance with the law. and that if this,

there was not the ability to prosecute them, they could, you know, target their political opponents. they could give away state secrets, et cetera. however, it was pointed out by trumps attorneys that if donald trump did break the law while serving in the official capacity of us president, he should have been charged and tried with an impeachment trial. there should have been an impeachment and a trial by the us senate that is the constitutional procedure. and it's worth knowing that that did happen to donald trump on both occasions, on 2 occasions he was impeached at and teach with charges brought against him, did stand trial and us senate on and on both occasions, he was found not guilty and he remained in office he was acquitted in the impeachment, proceedings that went on in the us congress. so this raises the question of these prosecutions that are now taking place if they are not somehow double jeopardy. and donald trump is facing charges that he's already faced up for crimes. the allegedly

committed in office which for which he was found not guilty in a trial by the us senate. so this raises a lot of constitutional and legal questions, but many look at the polls and say that is donald trump is able to get through all the legal difficulties. this is not the only civil case or legal prosecution. the donald trump is facing that if he's able to get through the prosecution and the legal trouble, he's currently facing this very good chance he could win the upcoming election as phone numbers do not look good for job. i only heard from american talk show hosts even osburg, who says, even if donald trump is found guilty, he could still win this year's presidential election. i've used this word before and the word is unprecedented. we've never seen anything like this and we've never seen anything like what's still to come between now and november. i mean, just think about it. a former president who happens to be leading in the polls to win the next presidential election, indicted several times and is facing several trials. and is in court right

now with his lawyers, claiming that he's immune from prosecution for any crimes. he may have been committed. id may have committed while he was in office would have trouble, you know, winds up being found guilty of trump winds up in jail. he could still run for president. and with what you have the, the president biden's justice department going after and indicting the president's chief rival, who is i hate in the. busy pals, and putting them on trial in an election you, you're leading up to the election. this is what happens in, quote, unquote, you know, 10 group countries in and kangaroo democracies. it doesn't happen in the united states of america, and it shouldn't happen around us box or kevin johnson has been made a russian citizen after reaching out in person to russian president vladimir putin .
