[000:00:00;00] the, the, the haitian prime minister, resigned to mid wide spread gang violence, washington perches to help the island nation this by playing a role in pod thing. it's current pricing. in the 1st place, the tensions are on the rise in berlin, where the german chancellor and foreign minister are not seeing eye to eye when it comes to sending arms to ppo. as nearly $160.00 days of war and gaza estimates entire family is a palestinian man. it's around it. in the west bank has almost lost almost all of his family members in his rally attacks of some good news. i used to have normal, simple dreams,

but today i dream of burying my family who died in gaza the here watching r t international. i'm rachel ruble live in moscow. protest erupt is in haiti after the countries prime minister announced his resignation. that's as gang violence spreads in the caribbean nation. small groups of demonstrators gathered in the haitian capital some burning tires in the middle of busy streets. several protesters encouraged packard supposing the regional block at kara, comes involvement, and hades feature politics. that out former prime minister are real henri is currently in the us territory of prior to rico. he says he will remain his head is the fact a leader until a new government is formed. but not the after the council of ministers tonight accepted to put into place a transitional presidential council. the members of the council will be picked

after agreement with different sectors of the national life. the government i running will remove itself immediately after the establishment of said council. they heard that he wants to stay in position until this interim cancel is set up. this is an interim council that would be comprised of around 7 members, and that would then leave the country into the next elections. haiti hasn't had elections since 2016. so they, you've seen this been pretty crucial at this point. we've also heard mean, well from the us, if not more money that it wants to apply in the country. this is to create a multi national security force given this increasingly urgent need. i'm announcing today that the united states department of defense is doubling its approved support for the mission from a $100000000.00 to $200000000.00. and that brings the total us support to $300000000.00 for this effort. i'm also announcing additional humanitarian

assistance for the people of $8033000000.00 to further support their health and food security. well, the announcement is unlikely to go down very well with many haitians who once again, possibly feel a bit being held hostage by the international community interfering in the internal affairs of the country. hate to use a form of french colony than the u. s. and they did it was that for about 20 years in the early 20th century, and it's been accused ever since if essentially being the power behind the politicians in the country wielding its influence. just to give you an example of that wiki, lynx memos mix back in 2008, 2009. the us state department at intervened and stopped being an increase in the minimum wage in haiti and minimum wage that many people desperately needed at the time. just to give you another sense. we've got over here, i'm over here who's saying he's stepping down. the us accused of essentially

putting him in power. he was elected when the full price of the country was short. he had been appointed prime minister a few days before, but there were others who felt that they would suit it because they had been elected to be the president of haiti. one included the senate president who was told by the us that she should step down and allow only to take over. and it wasn't just the us. it was other western powers. you were paying countries like folks in germany who also urging haiti's to accept somebody. i've said the death who had not been elected. let's just take a look now, nicky, at some of the other way use the us in particular has influenced and intervened in hatred history.

the hey, is that still missing? isn't it? when you look back and coming back to the situation in haiti at the moment, what exactly a locals saying about the old way, you'd expect that there would be happy if there is less violence. as a result of this transitional governments coming into place, the head of hopefully elections. but we have already heard from one of haiti's main

. gang both says this is jimmy the bumper to it. she's yeah. who has said that was sedans. he's unhappy, he says, the international community is continuing to essentially, uh, you know, interest in hate. and he says, if it continues down this current quote, then it will plunge the country into even move chaos. and he is saying that it should be only haitians who decide who runs and what type of government there is in the country. and that seems to be echoed by people on the ground too. when we talk about caring home, have they even done anything for haiti? all haitians need to work together to see if we can save the country. those countries always good haiti in a situation where we end up fighting each other. i got to you kind of com cannot do anything for us. it is like when you run from the rain and end up falling in the mud, the only thing i can say is that aerial henry is out forever. he cannot do anything for us anymore. what you're hearing, guys, people saying, look, we want to control our own country. we want to control our own destiny. essentially,

haitians of fed up with being treated by as if they're a colony of another country. whether that is fronts with about the us or anyone else, they would like to the salt lake that feature well against the backdrop of the escalating violence in haiti, i'm verified video has emerged and this circulating on social media of a haitian gang leader, allegedly engaging in cannibalism. jimmy shows they're also known as barbecue heads. the gang being associated with the video. he has a tory as far as power, and haiti is rep and his reporter they behind the recent violent prison break in an attempt to over to our prime minister. our real henri, who has resigned the video, has not been independently verified. the report suggests to footages 2 years old and not connected to the gang later, and the current unrest journal has dental and called the claims against it shows here a massive this information campaign to discredit him. why are we seeing a sudden this information campaigns for training jimmy barbecue shows the a, as

a cannibal. sure was the air is trying to turn haiti into a productive and prosperous country that benefits the whole population. the complete opposite of the disturb you, that us imperialism has created way. discussed this gruesome story with daniel shaw, a latin american in caribbean studies expert who says the west stereotype stations and pushes a negative narrative. this contributes to the stigma is the racist stereotypes that has been pushed by the west for so long. we never hear about 80 in the west unless it has to do with the crew disease or some type of chaos. but what the united states media apparatus has never informed us is the us that has invaded and occupied haiti for a greater part of the 20th century. jimmy, sure, easier use the top dog, some call him a gang bought some call him

a wall. lloyd. overwhelmingly. what i've heard from thousands of ations is that they do not trust jimmy barbecue she res year. but i also think that the media treatment assures year has, is not been balanced. um, there are other again, leaders, paramilitary, mercenary leaders who have proven to be much more violent. a sinister issue is here . so i think the truth is probably much more dialectical in the middle somewhere. attentions are high in berlin over sending taurus and missiles to key of german chancellor. all i've schultz has been assisting berlin won't provide the weapon rate and become a party to the conflict. while his foreign minister on the line a bare bach has contradicted him saying, there is always an option for arm supplies are to contribute original. marsden takes the parts of the story for us. so german chancellor, all i've schultz was supposed to be meeting in berlin with the malaysian prime minister about trade something that could actually help the german economy. and later schultz is government pushing it off

a cliff to impress ukraine and he ends up being asked to clarify his position on 500 kilometer range, taurus missiles for you, frame kind of off topic, but not hard to understand why some folks might be a bit confused on that issue, schultz himself keeps saying that he won't send tyrese's for fear of escalating the conflict yet. sold his party approved legislation for long range weapons, for ukraine that neglected to explicitly exclude taras missiles that could reach things like rushes kurtz bridge. joining the crime in peninsula to the mainland while his defense minister said that he didn't even know what was in that bill because well, he didn't write it then russian intelligence interceptor. and we could talk german air force officials talking about not just terraces, but just such an attack on the very same bridge. and rather than taking those plotters to the woods shed for planning how germany could kick off in another world,

more shots, the more upset with the guys who messed up working the phone security. so here is again, just for the record sign of buttons this theme because regarding this weapon system, i believe that given its impact and location of application good cannot be used without control. and that the participation of german soldiers cannot be justified even outside of ukraine. that's why i said, i don't think there use is justified, and that the question is not how to do it, indirectly or directly. my answer is clear. okay, so what he's saying is that there can't be ukranian rodeo. clowns on the bulge, if the germans are not also there to babysit, but the latest reason why schultz is having to keep repeating himself on this issue is because his own for and affairs minister annalee in a bare box has been opened. we steaming with her brother's counterpart, former prime minister, david cameron in berlin,

and they were talking about how to get the bows out of the barn. the idea would be to send the terraces to the u. k. and then in turn, the u. k. would give some more of their own storm shot themselves with half of the tourist is range to ukraine. how many, 5, you think the secular exchange is so to speak, a german invention. it would be an option. and we have already done it with other equipments, some time ago. quick reminder, the bear bar is one of the bright lights of the green party, who's founding principle is pacifism, and also defending the environment. 22000000 tons of carbon dioxide are generated by warfare. according to germany's on press. that's quite the carbon footprint. yeah, earlier this month, bareback pleaded for her german government to quote intensive, we consider increasing that carbon footprint with terraces for you frame and the u . k. is right on board with the plan, with an exchange be conceivable,

with germany supplying your country with torres and the u. k. supplying more storm shadows to ukraine. we are prepared to look at all options in order to achieve the maximum effect for ukraine. but i won't give any details until our opponents. what we have in mind, cameron said that it's totally possible to deploy cruise missiles. well, also ensuring that they don't escalate the conflict in facts. he says they'd help achieve peace. yeah, that sounds totally believe well coming from the same guy who insisted on riding shotgun alongside french president, me for that stuff was the, when a no fly zone over libya escalated into retaining, changing former president more marg. adolphe and back in 2013 cameron couldn't get enough support in british parliament for a direct attack on syria and president bashar al assad. but that didn't stop him from shaking free enough change from the wallets of british tax payers, even the time of government, austerity to hell, fund western back syrian rebels to do the dirty work problem regime. change you

decide more covertly cameron also try brow beating. then us president brock obama and other western leaders to get more aggressive with the sides like he was some kind of a job down at the local pub. want his crew to come help them with a punch up? nope, no chance of escalation there. in any case, schultz said that he is alternately in charge because apparently he has to keep reminding everyone on a regular basis these days. this company sign dispute is not acceptable to deliver a weapon system that reaches very far and then not think about how control over the weapon system can take place. and if you want to have control and it is only possible if german soldiers are involved, that is completely out of the question, i made that statement very clear. i am the chancellor and therefore that applies. well, 60 percent of germans are against terraces for you. brain schultz sounds less like the leader of a country and more like a substitute teacher who is totally lost control of the class. as terminates hot

debate continues, presidential biden's administration has announced a new $300000000.00 military aid package for ukraine. us national security advisor jake sullivan says the funding was freed up due to an unanticipated cost savings and is not nearly enough for the long term. in the same munition will keep ukraine's guns firing for a period, but only a short period. it is nowhere near enough to meet ukraine's battlefield needs, and it will not prevent ukraine from running out of ammunition in the weeks to come . it goes without saying, this package does not displace and should not delay the critical need to pass the bi partisan national security. all right, let's cross live now as sarah flanders, co director of the international action center, sarah, president biden as announced a new $300000000.00 military aid package for ukraine, is that, as i mentioned there,

which was reportedly freed up by unanticipated cost savings from pentagon contracts that's the term that i haven't heard before. uh, what are your thoughts on that as well? this is really just a band aid of what they're planning still in the pipeline. and us and all western weapons have already completely failed along with western sanctions failing. but nevertheless, they continue piling it on. there is still a $105000000000.00 funding package in the pipeline on ukraine, israel against china. that's been raised now to $118000000000.00 funding in the pipeline they expected to pass. so this 300000000 is just a little band aid to keep the war going. the weapons coming out. and most of this, the weapons are such corruption and ukraine. there's no tracking system by kind of guns on estimates more than a $1000000000.00 and weapons have just gone missing on,

accounted for, re sold and so on. but even the weapon said come, there's no training, there aren't parts for it. so the whole policy is completely a failure by their own admission by even a bouncing object. toria newland, one failure after another in this policy. and it's really shown even in the ukraine . they talk about 300000000 more in some weapons, but 300000 military age ukrainians have left few crane routers and serv. so they're facing a crisis on every front, including with their own population. yeah. what does this say about us policy on ukraine? the, the us national security advisor says this package will keep the cranes conspiring, but only for a short period. i mean, what does it say about the kid has capacity to succeed? that's all this funding and all these weapons get and keep them getting funneled to

ukraine. and it really doesn't seem to be making much of a difference to well, it's not only making no difference, as i say, it's a complete failure. as we saw in a desktop, it gets their complete disasters happening one after the other and no solution in sight. however, it's very profitable for us weapons manufacturers for the billions that are made and profits on us wars, and whether those war succeed or fail, and they fail one right after the other. whether we're talking about i've got to stand or practice will be one after the other. the wars do fail. and yet the prophets are made by major us corporations that are just dependent on the profits for more. and they talk endlessly about what's their next standing product project, not in any way. what are the steps forward for peace? what are the steps forward for diplomacy? no,

it's more money for ukraine. more money for is real. more money for taiwan or more money for it, stretch around the world and we're talking billions and hundreds of millions of dollars. they just passed a $186000000000.00 defense budget. and then as i say on top of that they have this 118000000000 supplemental funding now coming. so in limits of all these, what 300000000 more in weapons, it just means that continuing fail policy. and it means continuing impoverishment on a world scale and right here in the us where there is no money for social programs at all. well, we have seen though republican leaders in congress block funding for a key of what, what do you think we'll see going forward in this year, particularly given the divisive nature of politics in america with this election

coming up as a lot of it is grand standing with all the talk about what they were going to block . nevertheless, $886000000000.00 did go through and there's lots of gravy and not for republican districts or democratic districts of you know, so some of it is really grandstanding. they talk about a border wall and how many billions of dollars are going to go for that. it all is going for more and they fight with each other over how much gravy each one of these politicians are going to get much in terms of kickbacks. in terms of their future positions with weapons companies and lobbying companies. that's really, i mean it's so crass what is happening. and overwhelmingly the population in the us is against us,

continued warren ukraine. they continued funding. they do poll after poll. just like overwhelmingly, the population is, is now against money to israel and is in sympathy with the palestinian people. yet nevertheless, the money keeps rolling on the weapons. these horrendous weapons they keep being shipped and used. are we starting to see a reluctance though, in the money and their weapons being sensitive because we're not seeing the multi $1000000000.00 military aid packages for ukraine that we saw previously from america in germany, is grouped in this heated discussion and little political circles about sending long range missiles to crane are we seeing some reluctance is there's some significance to this at all. well, there is reluctance from the population. every one of these countries, the support that emotional support, the day with up 2 years ago. it's no longer there, it's fall and completely flat. so now they have to hide all these weapons

procurement. ukraine has already gotten from the us more than 75000000000. it's actually much more, but it's hard to track all of these things and i know 93000000000 from the e. u members and 12000000000 from britain and anyway, you could go on and along with accounting billions of dollars. and each of these countries has a capacity against, for will their own population to continue sending these weapons. and yet it will, it's doesn't breed. success has with showing that they get rid of their own officials, such as victoria new ones, they'll, they'll bounce around with a golden power issue, but she represents a failed policy. but nevertheless, they are willing to continue funding one more after another, and it will take more decisive action by people here on the us handed the you

to refuse these wars and really reject all of these politicians and vote one time after another. regardless of their campaign promises for the next war and the next funding bill, and they hide it, they speak against it, put out a press release against it, and then vote for it. all right, well leave it there. sarah flanders, international actions that are co director, sarah, thank you to do well, some news just in a man who shot 2 people and took 18 of those hostage at a bus station in the brazilian city of rio de janeiro has surrendered to local authorities. brazilian, medias say the incident occurred after the perpetrator failed to rob someone but it shows people in military uniforms evacuating a major bus station. well terrified passengers ran from the scene should are part of the barricaded himself, and the bus terminals car park and held 18 people hostage. all hostages had been freed, police are investigating the incidents and williams underneath was pretty shy secuity

. and the case is closed. the house or sticker has handled himself into the military police. he has been arrested. all of the hostages have been released. they are safe. and they are receiving preliminary treatment from firefighters or checking the psychological conditions and other negative things. but it's important to emphasize the presence the world comes to professionalism of our team. as the idea of continues to fight against what it claims are homeless militants, it's palestinian civilians who suffer the most on the far a lost his entire family except for his father. one is really forced as a tactic, gaza city on december 9th. the strikes came, well, i'll go sorry. was stranded in jericho. city in the west bank following the october 7th, thomas attack a wheel my so shut up itself. marsh on december 9th and my wife and i were speaking on the phone that she was telling me something a tank shell hit the door of our house. i heard the blast, but couldn't understand what was happening. she said,

smallest was not even 2 years old. heart broken, ahmed shared memories of his daughters with us. i found, i know i reached the point where i can't cry from my family anymore. and in, i mean, not in front of anyone, especially in front of my father, is just impossible for me now. but my heart cries all the time. i burst into tears when i'm alone, unexcused, i can't sleep at night, i think but, but i don't want to cry in front of my father because i know that if i do, he will break down too. i still have my daughter's pictures on my phone, where i used to have their photos as my wallpaper. i would turn it on and see their faces. okay, but now i remove them from the lock screen. i just cannot look at the pictures anymore because now there are only pictures. you can remove them from your phone, but how can they be removed from your heart?

my eldest daughter, tyler used to draw for me. every time i returned from israel, i would find the hard shapes note with our names on it. for tyler was too shy to give them to me herself. so she asked her mother to do that. while she stood behind the door peaking out and laughing. and my daughter alone, um i used to give her a shekels when i returned home, but she wouldn't be happy unless it was the half shekels. i would give her a 510 shekels, and she would say, no, dad, i want the big one. she didn't understand from that it was worthless. if i get the chance to return to my city where my family members are temporarily buried, i want to re bury them, and i want to put tall as drawings on her shroud. linus story is this half shuttle . i've had this with me since october. the ahmed is one of some, 165000 palestinians who used to work in israel and the west bank before the start

of the war. and the majority were employed in the construction, agriculture, hospitality, and service industries. after the october, 7th, i'm us terror attack, the israeli government decided to bar entry to over $140000.00 palestinian workers, ahmed sure. details of his experience with us as some of them are doing. these people were innocent. ordinary citizens just living their lives. what was their fault? when i got the opportunity to stop working israel, i paid off our debts, started building a house, and was planning to see my brother get married. our dreams were becoming real. then suddenly it all went up in flames. my dream now is to return to gaza and bury my wife, my daughters, my family members, to bury my mother and brother who has been under the rubble since december 9th. their bodies still haven't been found. with this war going on,

we can only pray that the almighty will stop the bombing the famine and the death that fell upon our people. on the children and women of our nation. i wish that all the countries of the world will help stop the war as soon as possible, so that the hearts of palestinians are saved and put at ease. i used to have normal, simple dreams, but to day i dream of burying my family who died in god's hm. all right, well that's what i do for me for now, but just stay with us. my colleague brought her mom is in next in about half an hour with a look at today's top new stories by the, according to jo buying america's most pressing challenge is the survival of the cam . regina is only the country's problems, are large and we expect the problem with fighting and all those things support the

plane project is about. the phrase is already in the, in the news that as we will mcgrooves each kilogram and any sort of separate shift. so are you looking to explain it straight to us as well? don't worry about the material costume for them and tell
