6:00 am
the, the headlines or what else you international for the 1st time president zelinski names, the number of the pride in soldiers killed in a conflict. let's pick up raises questions about whether or not it actually corresponds with reality. seeing read over going green, a dining report getting out of the failures of an autonomy and bio fuel project in africa. that palm is so much deliberate, so live going it alone with western sanctions. stopping around a vital medicine. it. scientists look the plug, live saving, got the getting partial production of specialist come. so throughout the
6:01 am
call, i take it off the work week with a busy program of guests. and correspondence standing by this is ok. so the russian defense ministry says it's false is have captured the village of a laptop. you know, it's in the don't ask for public, it's not far from the city of, of jessica, which also came under that control earlier this month in the article for region in eastern ukraine. the m o. d is released footage of keeps drone. the control position is being targeted, inconvenience, and ca across themselves. systems can also be seen in action, protecting against database strikes. you're creating a president, vladimir zalinski has a method to the pressure his forces off facing and to reach these close to the pressure from the russians is quite strong towards the direction of cardboard chancellor. go beyond skis where you were in that region. you know, it was strong threats each not 31000 soldiers have died in this war. and yet it's a great loss for us. a 180000 russians have died. there are 180000 dead and wounded in russia. the ukrainians of $31000.00, and it's very painful for us to do. and i can tell you how many
6:02 am
a wounded on the russian troops of bonds on the front lines of my colleague assassinated tyler discussed the accuracy of those numbers. but full adviser lensky with us. he is donald cord. well, 1st of all, what's interesting is the fact that this figure from ukraine's president comes recently after moscow actually gave its own estimates of ukrainian casualties, which suggest much higher losses on the side of the ukrainians. according to russia's defense ministry, key have suffered over 200000 casualties just last year. well, the total number of ukrainian casualties, since the beginning of russia's military operation, is approaching $400000.00 according to statistics that we have from back in december. so it's already been some time since we had those numbers established then of course the wednesday says that this all nonsense, but you got to wonder seeing all these videos of ukrainians being snatched up on the streets and send to the conscription officers. you've got to wonder why so much fresh meat for the grinder is necessary if casualties are so low,
6:03 am
not to mention how large we've seen ukrainian cemeteries grow in recent months. so this is all together, something that rushes uh for a ministry spokeswoman is saying evidence for wise lensky is actually really just a liar. the fact that the lens keys lying is realized by every citizen of ukraine festival, but every ukrainian soldier early as the president did not consider the russian speaking population of don't bosses people. now he has stopped considering the population of the remaining pulse of ukraine. us people or if his position on this is really only further backed up by a slip up from the president of the european commission back in 2022 or so of underlay. and when she said that ukrainian losses had at that point reached a 100000 people in a video as it was just deleted as quickly as it was published, it is estimated that more than 20000 civilians and more than 100002 crane and military officers have been killed so far a well,
6:04 am
that's one statement that i can see is what i but the western press. but is that anything else that he mentioned and not pretty comprehensive press conference that you think is interesting? well now that the counter offensive is over, it's a failure. but zalinski is still saying that this is not something that he should be taking responsibility for. he says that uh, that the plans for the counter offensive were somehow available to the kremlin that in advance, he's going to want me to add to the i'll tell you frankly, i'll counter offensive operations last thoughts and we're on the criminal ins table before the counter offensive to begin. despite the colossal failure of the, the 2023 you creating counter offensive. i mean, the fact that it's failed to accomplish anything aside from man massive casualties . on the ukrainian side, we still got ukraine's defense minister promising that 2024 is going to be a new year with new successes middleman. so mostly we're in the most live with lift
6:05 am
the we are doing everything possible and impossible to make a break through. the 2024 plan is already in place. we do not talk about it publicly is powerful, it is strong. it gives not only hope, but it will give results in 2024. so definitely some big plans. there are some big words, but with russian forces now in control of a day of car and advancing across most of the front line. i mean, it seems like a 2024 counter offensive would be even more doomed to failure than the one that we saw last year. but according to international consultants, it has moose, and he believes that with these numbers being analysed by that landscape, ukrainian president is showing is don't quite in touch with reality. maybe a little bit yet woken up, yet from a dream. so he's obviously delusional. perhaps the need to just drop the 01, the numbers or flip flopped the notes from russian cash and leads to ukrainian casually. but clearly we or maybe it's a budget issue. so i only claim $30000.00 killed the max. and so i only pay
6:06 am
a pay out to the families for $30000.00 soldiers. so it's a clearly, it's best place getting me know, we have more categories than that just in the, in the recent counter offensive. so which is a complete the possible. so it's a, yeah, it is, it's, it's the lose. it's, it's, it's for political purposes solely and, and he knows as the numbers are already very low. if he actually provided real numbers, you'd probably be out next week probably a better line saying before the counter offensive that they had 100000 soldiers last. we have uh us assessments anywhere from $70000.00 plus the russian assessments obviously around the $3.00 to $400000.00 intelligent sources for more reliable and for intelligent sources. clearly do not support the numbers the most is the one steve saying, i'm not sure where he's getting numbers from
6:07 am
a or maybe he's him together to get them themselves. but it's a, it's clearly is a, is lying to the premium public. we've got the age limits, have been expanded, we've got women being brought into the service and, and we've got to just rounding up another 5 that works well. i don't think they're going to be able to get 500000 with it. and we're asking countries to send back to the port ukrainians in that in their draft stages of back to ukraine. so why you have these measures if you've only, if they've only lost the 30000? so that's what your current has agreed on. security deals with the number of western countries during the visit of g 7 members. the key of basically paving the way for a 3rd year of fighting with russia without taking the story. let's get this not without. so he's a contributor, is rachel most i saw a bunch of western leaders went to t as over the weekend for a homecoming of sorts. it's been exactly 2 years now since the korean conflict
6:08 am
popped off and the country continues to lose chunks to russia while everyone shares loads the place up with weapons to get blown up and basically keeps acting like that's what winning looks like. canadian prime minister just intruder. oh, sure. got the draft offering just over $2000000000.00 us dollars and canadian tax fair cash in military support to ukraine may as well just hand that check right over to uncle sam. anyway. who makes the drones that too though? just pledge to frame recently, but still vacuum prime minister robert feet. so who wasn't there? gave the whole circus some major side. i thought the we know that you all those little cool. this will began to back in 2014 with the antics of ukrainian neo nazis . they tried to mislead russia that the war would not expand to the east and today is gone so far as the crane declared that it must become a member of the you, which i personally consider a good basis to the outbreak of world war 3,
6:09 am
ukraine and russia needs security guarantees assured by the strongest international players do not accept the arguments that mutual killings of ukrainians and brushing should continue so that ukraine can negotiate them all fed and moderate agreement. that's want to those who lose arguments in favor of continuing the boss say a tell him premier george or maloney and belgian prime minister alexander the crew also showed up in key of and european commission. president ursula vander line to she underscored that they stand with ukraine in front of the cameras. oh, i mean, morally, seems like there is uh, developing sense that this conflict is closer now to which and then it is to its beginning. and that means that there isn't much time left for europe to get aboard the tax cash laundering, bandwagon and stuff, its own military industrial complex as coffers like washington has been doing from the get go. we have to do more and do it faster. and as the coming months may decide, the outcome of the war to resist is to win. so
6:10 am
a bunch of countries are now given ukraine years long bilateral security guarantees, france, germany, canada, italy and denmark, which fly it was said that they'd send all their weapons to crane and disarm themselves for their own security. guys just made more weapons that i guess maybe finally, cash into weapons for themselves will be the hail mary pass. that saves their own economies that they've tags. meanwhile, ukrainian salaries and critical infrastructure got 38000000000 euro is the last year. that's according to the countries finance minister with another 33000000000 needed this year. so maybe western or should just be heading over there then. hey, is anyone asking about the off ramp in any of this? like, is there even one? 0 yeah, here it is. as we move forward, we continue all support to ukraine instead of developing presidency lensky speech formula. so if it was case pace formula that they're all waiting for him to cook up
6:11 am
is the nice thing, like the big mac sauce that mcdonald's or the recipe for classic coca cola. going to be a big secret for years. well, everyone's just kept guessing. it's not like even the washington press hasn't been talking about the need to find an exit. and to chavez, zalinski right towards that. but washington is now perceived around europe to have lost its will. the repentance and conscious have the will. and it just committed another $54000000000.00 to reconstruct the country. but when it comes to repelling russians revive defensive, they do not have the capacity even beyond washington. much of the western media is narrative is shifted to the need to wrap things up. why the west is losing ukraine? ukraine can't win the war. zalinski is palpable frustration. 2 years in ukraine faces american made crisis 2 years into war. after 2 years of war, questions abound on whether t of can sustain the fight against russia. average citizens can say what the magic
6:12 am
piece formula is. that's the lensky is this san treating life. it's as mysterious and complicated as a secret of getting the caramel. and so the little cadbury, chocolate bar squares, somebody does the most the international community must force both sides to the negotiating table. the outcome can only be compromised. the flight to the st. search to see him stop. i love off and leave for home. a stop to own arms deliveries immediately, the pursuit of negotiations with the russian side, and an end to the ongoing insults against russia. what's this and say clearly apparently escapes the german foreign minister who says that they are quote, racking their brains on how to get more long range weapons to train more ammo, air defense and artillery. she said, we're meeting with are you creating counterpart kind of sounds like the opposite of a piece formula. but then again, this is the same person who racks or brains with basic geometry thinking that an about face is 360 degrees. apparently,
6:13 am
the german opposition is not too confident with her navigational skills either whoever wants to transfer the war to russia, with the help of german weapons transfers it to germany, despite the supply weaponry, ukraine's position has only wes and sounds about par for the course. for europe, some european diplomats are telling the western prospect there really is no strategy at all. yes. think hard to imagine that could be any worse. so then what they're already doing an energy source to is not only good for the planet, but also for the african farm is producing it. it seemed too good to be true and silent for the it's highly an oil drawn to any. it was a dining report into the company's biofuel operations in africa says they failed to deliver on any of that promise the investigations on the ground. and the 2 african countries went and he says it has advanced the 1st canyon, the republic of congo, haven't called it
6:14 am
a strain of broken promises and on met targets. the realities that after several years of assets and he's by fuel project has gained very little traction, and that is nowhere near its production targets. so much has been said to as the know regarding the fail all the time in the in fact, those fading is an all spoiling the hopes off many east african india has not to me to um, any proper announcements about the status of this project. but this is a project that had to um, generated to great interest in can yeah. when menu form is have joined the initiate to the however, the results. i'm not living up to the expectations of what the deals are. well below the talk and states by in the for the upcoming. yeah. um and do the investigation that we are coming to have it all disposal shows that any is failing indeed to deliver on those promises to produce thousands of tons of by a few crops. and this is now raising patients off the over the credibility of the
6:15 am
companies. the plans are for many parts of the african continent. and one of this is backed by the time in private as the georgia and below need. but also be important to note shows that not so long ago, below me was quoted for naval blockade along with the african coastline. now just told us into her own mandate that she has some sort of set of ties to disclose to as a stomach syndrome below need to create that to groups. condescending approach to africa had failed to save you from now on each of the would be pursuing mutually beneficial cooperation among equals the fee from the printed the positions off the cost in sam. okay. sample. see that until i believe it's possible to imagine and try to new page in the history of our relations cooperation as a quote from a the products which invitations but also from the charity like approach to africa, which is so ill suited to its extra ordinary development potential, this is
6:16 am
a to is nature a vacation, a bridge between africa and to europe as a tail end. so we have the advantage of being able to build that breach. not starting from scratch, the try the based on the solid foundations that the great to tell them. and we cannot take founder of any have the full side to envisage all those years. a go. a lot of the more one looks into the details of the prime ministers, much a plan which is named off to him to come and take the found the off the state. oh, your company in the, the cra, 8 becomes that vision is not to be about to co create a new paradigms for inter continental approval corporation at all. but increasing the tenant government if it was over b, u foreign policy. the programs sound a grand and it sounded promising. it would have been very difficult for any african countries to object or all the to not buy into what was said. and it was intended to the one when these promises were made in kenya and the congo. we have launched
6:17 am
vertical integration initiatives. the 2 countries will be able to produce significant volumes of agri, feedstock, starting in 2023. it's now printing t tree before and even in the mentioned combo and present fold, the situation is not much a bit. so we understand the from the investigation that production b as also not to even reach the testing stage of incense into this proposal to serve as an image. he gateway for natural gas from africa. i'm raising the questions about the advertising. i guess it just stops us over renewable energy sign with experts. advocates at the moment for a focus on renewables and considering africa's potential for solar electricity production. and of course not everyone is impressed with the tenant, initiates of africa, has an enormous amount of so wind genuine renewable energy sources. and instead she chooses a full solution like biofuels. we need plans that re balance africa's position
6:18 am
globally in truly innovative ways. not convening that, keep it at the bottom of the food chain. even the efforts in union permission offered some particularly strong and reservation about the proposal boy being below need about promises that are not kept to. and that's exactly we, we all coming to the end of reminding her that effort because i'm not big as it goes and civil society groups as well. have boys still only concerns about the nature of the proposal? i'm complaining that content is of sofa made no particular effort to consult local governments and communities regarding the investments. and that would be a no guarantees in place to prevent the explanation and the face of natural resources that we have seen as being a feature of costs relationships between um africa and they need the manual feed european countries and wisdom countries. but what we are seeing, according to experts, is that each of is throwing advocates on public change and expecting the content
6:19 am
governments to explain to its proposal without selecting too much on the details of those proposals. but then the question is, does that sound like cooperation among people, of course not western sanctions against a ra, not play designed to the country's economy, but for some they're also a matter of life and death restrictions on the supply of vice old medicine. so that's basically prompted some local producers to step in and try and tablet themselves. so let's pick up the story now with all these years after that. upon discovering her mother's cancer diagnosis 4 years ago that search him as for honey, a pharmacist was at the rock bottom, especially because she, as a health professional, herself knew more than anyone else. that's certain life saving medications would not be readily available for her mother. due to us sanctions, which have blocked one from procuring crucial medical supplies, fast forward to the present and she's working with a dedicated team of experts jointly manufacturing the range of cancer treatments
6:20 am
using or want to know how after sang sanction, there are no tests to continue for him, for taishan this for those 20 to you, right. and they've decided to manufacture just products in our country. the 1st shot for sure our assigned to fix. they were working in r n z in a manufacturing just for dice by ourselves following the united states withdrawal from the 2015 nuclear deal with it was and the subsequent reposition of sanctions on the country to one face to a sudden supply crunch of costs. various industries with the medical sector, bearing the brunt by the likes of the, the restriction seemed to be a blessing in disguise. thanks to our 1st of all, your local companies. many of the sanction drugs such as ducks, are roberson, hydro chloride, and cyclophosphamide are now fully manufactured anyone years ago. most of this paradise has been important,
6:21 am
but now they're proud. that's as you're manufacturing these products are new wrong despite the concert at efforts made in around the country has only been able to partially address the crisis at a local level turn for either around 360000 iranian cancer patients. experts have indicated that 20 percent of these patient population continues to depend on for and medication, which remains hard to come by. while the sanctions are not specifically named that there was health care industry. the banking constrains complicated the procurement process and make it impossible for the country to pay for any medical items from global suppliers. despite the washington's claim of exempting humanitarian goods from being bar go, observations with an iranian hospitals review a different reality. hold on, what the u. s. has done is not fair with the sanctions on medicine because they are putting pressure on the patients. it's hard for his patients. i'm heading to come jump medicines or unobtainable and very expensive. my family is searching for medicine more than me because i'm in the hospital. they stand in long queues at the
6:22 am
red crescent special disease department to get the drugs. they split up into different groups to search for the medicine in different parts of the city. the families of these cancer patients and they won't say the audio is shared by countless families as the shuttle between drug stores in search of life saving medications. you know of all the death of them. it's so painful and with so sad. i'm not alone in this when i wait outside the witness, the pain of my fellow citizens. i lose hope. i can see how hopeless the family's uh, i us, the american policy makers, to refrain from mixing all political affairs with the struggles of people and do not use people, especially patients as tools. cancer patients are not the only victims of the political games played by western leaders who was suffering from special diseases such as hemophilia e. b. i fell asleep. yeah, i've also paid a heavy price with amazing treatment having led to fatalities. physicians that these persisting obstacles are not really on ethical,
6:23 am
but also wrong counter to establish humanitarian principles. hudson, it's absolutely into mind how dare the private person from a medication that can save their life. it's unjustifiable. this is why we, as physicians, do whatever we canceled our patients live even for one hour, longer individuals with chronic conditions, any wrong or not really battling the unless itself would also have to grapple with the side effects. so if he was sanctions over health care professionals in the wrong have seen the civil linus, new racing against time to indigenous, be a link health sector. now they've made promising headways, but at the same time they urge american politicians to board jeopardizing the lives of people for political ambitions. usability our to the prime minister of the palestinian authority has announced he's resigning along with his entire government. well, how much time to blame the decision on escalating violence in the west bank and the
6:24 am
war and gaza? he also said the government and so the policy, you know, authority needs to be extended to cover the enclave as well. the us is currently pressuring the public speaking and president talking with my boss to make such a move while the most influential palestinian powers on how boss will meet later and this week in moscow for negotiations over a unity government. earlier we spoke to the general secretary of the publishing and national initiative, more stuff about to go to and he welcomes the step as a, as a good step towards the national unity with an interim government is an important steps and hopefully in the right direction. i'm the direction use the formation of an action or you let me see and settings governments accepted by others. the impossible to get out to you. they only deal with waste bank and gaza in the united government and to guarantee the ability of the police thing and people who was on the spot of tucson forces to stand up for an attorney, i was plan which is to try to consolidate as an annual patient in gaza.
6:25 am
eh, and global news. yeah. creating some kinds of the things that title condition instead of the government. so i hope that this, that will lead to the immediate formation of national unity government. that includes what that is that has accepted them by on boxing and bought this without accept the acceptance. and this would be very useful for the mc total of the senior debt out of toys. out of this is ebony data backs america impressions, to re establish another one sided kind of government which would not satisfy the police to me and people ought to go in the linux channel, national unity which means creating the national unity government input in government acceptance about the student and forces to satisfy the rest of the
6:26 am
senior people and it shouldn't be and for them because it's a 2 pads for future democratic elections. the public wants to see national unit, the public wants to see to anybody on the phone. the popular quote to see uh, to the presence of everybody that's protected on the needs of somebody sitting at people. and that event defy. is that a, the conspiracies, i guess the people. and meanwhile, the is ready, war cabinet has approved a plan for a ground offensive against hamas in the rough, far as you know, that's where we are. now the latest numbers are more than 1000000 displaced palestinians a kindly shelter. and while the document told to evacuating civilians from danger zones, it makes no mention of actually where they're supposed to go. these ready permanent to claims to hostilities and the enclave code. and to quickly, if indeed, that i fi incursion is implemented, the victory is within reach any kind of victory until you eliminate come us. once
6:27 am
we begin the rough operation, the intense phase of the fighting is weeks away from completion, not months, weeks away from completion. i've asked the army to submit to me a double plan for us to evacuate, to enable the evacuation of the palestinian civilians in gaza, and obviously the 2nd to destroy the remaining come us battalions. if we have a deal, it will be delayed somewhat, but it will happen if we don't have a deal. we'll do it anyway. it has to be done during the weekend. israel has been given mixed messages, confirming its intended tramp on military offense against mass after. also having suggested that progress in the stocks are coming along, the media reports say last week's meeting in paris between and is there anything at the beginning of the twos from the us caught that and each of us have been told it was further negotiations in the home, so if you gave with some of the patient limited monday to, to discuss the technical aspects of the potential bills as a negotiator are still
6:28 am
a waiting. how muster supplies to the framework do for them be reached in pants? how much has not come associates on the latest reports. however, the senior, how master official said comments made by benjamin. that's in. yeah. how sunday. because dropped the hell of a willingness to secure a hostage to you. you don't know whose comments show he's not concerned about reaching an agreement. he wants to be soon negotiation on double abutment, and the blood showed the philistines. well, you know, so for the pre, the framework provides the release of some 40 hostages, including women children, female soldiers, elders, and even sick up deputies may also include the release by is, are all of the hundreds of posting in tara context. thomas earlier said it was not to lose all of the remaining hostages until as early as it's offensive. and withdrawals is forces from the territory. pressure has been nothing on this and you know, has got limits to negotiate a deal as secure the release of the remaining costs,
6:29 am
which as mess of chaos are acted on the streets of tel aviv doing an antique government riley saturday night with protesters calling for prime minister benjamin, it's in the hours of the commission the . 0 the me one lesson support or is written these action is place to concerns us national security advisor jake sullivan said to washington, the within support. tell a visa, offensive in the fall, without a credible plan for this simply is protection which is apparently lacking. we've been clear that we do not believe that in operation a major military operation should proceed in rafa. unless there is a clear and executed will plan to protect those civilians,
6:30 am
to get them to safety and to feed closed and house them. and we have not seen a plan like that because she is r o. so facing an unofficial, the lines of the start of the muslim pony month or from a don it's and you know, is also due today his cabinet later this week to approve the preparation of transport action and little for that as about 1500000 palestinians are taking refuge in the city as the current situation in the gaza strip that they mean unbearable and even in payable payment, august had to complete it in 19 where in the 6 months of yes, we keep moving from place to place wherever it's released, instructs us to go, we go, no, they're saying they want to enter russell. so why did they ask us to have to rush off if they wanted to occupy it? where could we possibly go without children cold and hung direct killing us? life is miserable. here. it is just some variable if you get, if young people are suffering from trauma.
