china and russia, something which allies perfectly with his vision of fostering a multiple or was order encountering western pressure aimed at isolating these monitor public on the world's face. so indeed, what he sees, global impact is unmistakable, which can be easily witnessed and be out touring of condolences from world leaders across the world who have expressed solidarity of sympathy with one during this period of morning. we see that the un security council pay tribute with a minute of silence, while numerous countries declared on national days of morning and lord, the flags still half mad. at embassies, the chairman of the state duma for us are, unpack, is 75 minutes or should march, or you are expected to attend sen. memorial service later in the day, it's a wrong. i'm not a russian president. vladimir pulled me,

conveyed his heart fails condolences, but it was interim president, how much more bear the line up for the upcoming transitional presidential election remains on surface. but vice president must bear who serves as acting presidents in accordance with the constitution headset, june 28th. as the election day, which with candidates course registration, starting from may 30th to june. 3rd. so the nation says at a pivotal juncture, now as it prepares to talk to new floors in the port for you, sierra layer, we discussed the death belt present macy with the the director general of the pack is still enough. kindest on use for him. he's told about basically what comes next as a round and practiced on have a vested interest to boost that bi lateral time, or hey, see what the president will, but have certainly related to somebody but also to get out to you. and but he just mentioned before, the one that has been so this showed that pops on everett's easy and that on in the

stage when dean do you know, it has these by letters a dice. and they wouldn't want to have the size of it, but they're going to live in certain form. it says that often are easy. i think of the kind of sort of mission that box on is trying to measurement at on hard, on thinking. so i'd like to add that device or maybe they submitted 10, but those efforts probably in the state of that i would want to have a garden additions with focus on because in the past we kind of have to, you know, have equipment for the nations. but it says that our development and the rest issue and also in the central issue and also with the gospel want and as well to part time would like to have a friendly neighborhood. i'm going back to have uh uh, you know, ties, it does the countries, as i mean it is and dies as of who would want to have submitted to the intervention with bucks on the king of a buffet. rain has arrived here at moscow at the invitation of president vladimir

putin. is that majesty how much been east south elisa was met by the deputy foreign minister and russian on a god right. there was a cut off the plane. the aim of the visit to discuss bilateral ties and the latest international developments. last week of the, our summit fund today and said it's all open. he said his desire wants to enhance cooperation with the russian federation and the next stop all the kings to taking them straight to beijing. the arab chinese cooperation for the russian forces regarding the controller with a ton of flesh i have caught that's under the city. lot of trouble because it's on its way public. last year, the town was taken by ukrainian troops as the one of the main gains of the circles confir offensive. the last few months of seeing the russian troops advancing in several areas across the front. the donuts republic keeps forces were pushed back from the original capital, as well as around the town of chess. sophia, of this month, the russian forces, lowest and offensive in

a hot up region to establish a buffers on the route. as belgrade border region, it's come under a piece of do crating and shelling all the details now with a correspondence in the region. we've just received confirmation from the russian ministry of defense of the latest advances in the don't yet square public russian troops. so taking control of the settlement of case you have this kind of a heavy price to you. crating on forces around $1000.00 men. what last of the last 24 hours? that's a total wounded and uh, i don't have minutes u haul that also has going up in flames out this come soon off, the rushing things, neighbor, i said, the village of boston. of course, this was simple day because the only real value of the ukrainian filed counter offensive the and it comes a time when the, the ukrainian government has implemented these, this new mobilization over just as caused many men to flee the country rather than

face life on the front lines, which is proving very difficult for the ukrainian on the stage of growth and haul calls, the russian freaks that are causing delays. defensive lines, like a knife through butter with very serious questions. being also, of course, this is supposed to be a heavy, every 45, every and i, russian, president, vladimir, please in the said of this stage that there are no plans to take control of how the game is ready to create a buffers. i'm to provide some welcome relief for the people of belgrade, which is coming under a sustained and constant ukrainian. a top are now as bottles to continue raging a positive front lines of both sides have naturally captured each other's troops. however, now, as moscow's offer to release $500.00 ukrainian p o w 's, the key of an exchange ukraine is only selected fillasy. 8 of the $500.00 is candidates to be brought back home. and the list of prisoners included the full names and dates of birth and was 1st published by authors editor in chief on her

telegram channel. according to mockery testimony on t. f has been refusing to exchange them for 4 months and only selecting just over 3 dozen to swap with moscow. margarita noticed that these 38 p o w 's are from the as of fatality and then all the neo nazi formations of the ukrainian ministry. i discussed this earlier, this time to eventually say with independent doctor john, this is sonya vander then she says, considering ukraine's lock of mind power, it's card actions, making those it shows that actually the i also tell you is very important for a salon skimming. i mean, they all say ok, they're nothing, you're not season, you know, but they are, i know this, i was there. so is, so they are very important for the regime and the other people apparently now, but you know, this is very strange because we all know that you create a new ukraine is lacking soldiers. so i cannot understand that if you release your

p o w 's and you treat them, maybe some of them were injured or not, i suppose not because they were fairly quick changes in the russia. i know that so it's, it's strange and it's like if they don't want them back, i mean, why do you don't want your soldiers back? what are they afraid? or maybe we don't know everything. maybe the soldiers wants to stay in russia. this is also what i heard, that was in long skin, january as bad as paul crystal, the soldiers who were captive. but they were all of us and they don't want to go back because they are very poorly treat tents in ukraine. and you know, they go to the front lines with barely any training. so maybe this is the case with the other civil doors. it doesn't make any sense, only makes sense. one, it could be in p r, spelled as well, you know, but he doesn't want them back. and he's saying all the time in the press or, you know, we don't have enough soldiers and we need to do something and they can do something

now. but this is not going to happen. or since it is trying to control the narrative of last week's assassination attempt on the slow by prime minister by pushing the lone wolf story, that's not me saying it does the claim made by russian intelligence. it is notable the us and it's your penalized offices simply trying to impose the version of a loan that betrayed to dissatisfied with the decline in the level of democracy in slovakia, according to information available to the russian for intelligent service, american government agencies already seeking to join the investigation in order to steer it in the right direction. the very goal is to exclude promotion of the topic of political terrorism in europe and the robot at potential external trace to the terrorist attack. for us as an intelligence is saying that basically the success nation that time shows bought the west will resort to when they fail to maintain their hedge. and monday through cit. busy lies methods,

they're calling that political terror attack against an opponents. now we know that robert sweetser's, one of the most pro russian politicians in europe. his re, election in 2023 was largely based on a platform of all promises to and military support to ukraine and also to veto ukraine's nato emissions. so, and then all of a sudden, when does this, this nation that some happen? everyone jumped the gun, excuse me, for the pun there. jump the gun to say that basically this was definitely a loan will for a situation while we're hearing this lone wolf narrative from western sources. but the slovak leadership has completely rejected that. what is their stance and the city? yeah, now they're rejected about originally when this happened. there was and oh no, no, no, this is a lone wolf situation. yes, it's politically motivated, but he was acting alone. and they made that conclusion without even having their information because now we know the attack happened on wednesday, and they only managed to search the perpetrators home on sundays. so 2 days after

the attack and why apparently there was this was due to delays in processing the arrest, the search warrant issued by the judge, the prime minister as charles, and you say 2 days to process a search warrant for the perpetrators. something sounds off here and meanwhile, by the time they've gone to his house, guess what happened somehow all of his, all i'm history on his computer was a rice. he was at home, his wife says she didn't do it. so who did it? let's just more research it today. what do you mean? maybe 2 hours after the crime scene? someone deleted the perpetrators, entire history of communication on facebook, on ownership. it wasn't deleted by hand. even his wife didn't do it. what do you the chaos expense? he has been some assistance here in covering is, was suspect tracks. that means they deal with the policy action for the benefit of the suspect. plus there are other clues that site as the facts of wednesday's time . yeah. they've been discussing a wide, a circle sort of, this is shocking that i said we took with this with a lot of, you know, when they were asked the defense from this,

from that department as to how this was allowed to happen. why that it takes 2 days . they say they can comments on the situation. there are 2 points in the finger of someone else and all units asked the police, or you need to ask the judge what happened? so it's really, it's very strange and also to add to that the general prosecutor has said that he doesn't. so uh, basically that will be looking at re qualifying this as a terrorist act. once they gather all of the information, which is what they should have done, gather all the information 1st and then say whether it was it was not alone will situation. this is what's really bizarre in this situation. what about gary and presidents come out with a statement saying that the media is to blame for what happened in slovakia? can you take us through this sort of argument that's emerged along these lines? lot of officials, allies, mainly in particular, were focusing on what was happening in the media in the country and in general, in europe. this hate rhetoric possible. dairy and presidents felt that are quite clearly his that it's unacceptable to continue push on this narrative that the only

solution to the conflict, the new crane, is to continue the war until russia is defeated. he says, 1st of all as to, you know, that's not going to happen. and 2nd of all, it's impossible. and 2nd of all, if you continue pushing that narrative, then of course this will lead to more hate. let's listen. the attempted assassination of european prime minister. my radicalized fanatic, because of his support for peace indicates this ingrained intolerance of descent and hatred. many politicians, parties and media have contributed to this by power, train every differing voice as pro russian, which is extremely unfair, and leads to these negative consequences. over a slovak of the problem and it has now resume that's activities on tuesday. and actually they started by proving that government led a resolution condemning the attack of course, and also call in on several organizations and media in the country can to continue promoting hates and this hates a rhetoric,

so we'll see what will happen. but also there continue in his policies, basically they're saying that they're moving forward and working in the direction that was said by robert feed so. so the master plan behind the soul has failed. just discussing this with other in the program here. and i'll tell you with the full, my c i a, unless they had strong was mr. larry johnson. he believes faith. so was targeted by so western partners. this individual was not acting on his own. he didn't just wake up that morning and say, you know, i would grab my gun and i'd take him to go try to shoot feet stuff. so i think they're absolutely being targeted by intelligence agencies. whether it, whether or not it's for assassination purposes. there's the essentially being targeted to accept the crew to create and fun, political opposition to them to try to undermine them, to try to just credit them to try to smear them. because they're, they're, they're really the 3 flies in the oil against the united states policy of trying

to defeat russia and to use ukraine as a spring board to do that. uh, that policy starting to fall apart. okay. and you know what? it's not just now slovakia hungry and serve you, but also what you're seeing now is with the recognition by 3 of the other european states, at least norway, spain, and then ireland. so you start to see this whole european nato thing started a come a part and, and it was when and that kind of situation of the west gets desperate. there's a sense of desperation and panic. right now. i'm on a western leaders butcher and war criminal. those who are just along the labels being a her old of the us secretary of state by pro palestinian demonstrate is anthony blank and was repeatedly interrupted during this speech in congress or the

citizens when. c well, 3 west of nations are set to recognize palestine as an independent state with a decision by island. no way in spain officially comes into effect next week. a simple listing salt off listing and state is obliged in line with the international law to live in peace within secure dimension. they recognize borders and to comply with all relevant to you and resolutions. i'm confident that further countries will

join us and taking this important step in the coming weeks. this is and started, unimportant to stay for arden's and for palestine. says find out the whole time has come to move from words to action, to tell the millions of innocence suffering, palestinians, the we're with them. i mean, there was host, honestly, not more than 140 you in states have recognized palestine since 1988, which is already most of the world on wednesday, 3 more countries spain 1st followed by no way an island have joined to the chorus, frustrated at the lack of peace progress and hoping to send the symbolic message of supports to palestinians by this move and also try to boost political changes but will eventually hopefully they believe bring an end to israel's definitely war. and guys of that some describe as genocide as well started, it smells reparation in the palace, student and clay back in october, or has

a response to have mass as attack on southern is rarely communities when hundreds were mode hadn't taken hostage claiming the goal is to destroy have mass that has been rolling the street since 2006. what's the almost a month long war claims more than $35000.00 palestinian lives already. and that's made many of the global community concerns and question, israel's approach more and more rarely for palestine, while israel, it's fight in the south. isolated the decision of islands, no way and spade will take into 4 starting may 28th. although the 3 countries made is clear, the move is not against israel, but rather for peace and political settlement. israel and we have it's a furious say of the countries for a minister old that stays really ambassadors to also in dublin to immediately return to israel. here's his statement, ireland and norway intend to send a message to the palestinians in the whole world today. terrorism pays after the

terrorist organizations from aust carried out the largest massacre of jew since the holocaust after it committed the most terrific sex crimes the world has seen. these countries chose to give a reward to him, mos in iran, and recognize a palestinian state as rarely foreign minister also warns that's the has the stab, will have serious consequences on the relationship between the states. without mentioning the what measures could be taken for administer. he's far from the only really politician of course, expressing his day was the decision, healthy european states. israel's finance minister, known for his extreme rights when position and open the end to palestinian dues, sent a letter to foreign minister the to the airport in london. inappropriate respons offer it as an option to authorize the construction of $10000.00 view units in the jewish assessments across the western bank always day. and some are. this is how these ro calls this area smells rich, also, or extension yahoo to stop collecting and transferring taxes to the palestinian

authority to cancel all privileges for palestinian vi piece. when it comes to crossing into israel and the outside world and impose sanctions on them instead. also we hear that these really defense minister now gives instructions to allow israelis to enter an area in the north of the west bank way towards the bays and for them to cross since 2005. and that means we might see jewish outposts and supplements in that area to in the coming future. the idea behind the recognition is the gradual establishment of a palestinian state under the shape of the palestinian authority. and that move is rejected by israel and no surprise. the news was taking negatively some politicians, including from the ruling call. this is a full time believe only in one state solution. israel's national security to administer even said recently that he wants to move to guys on top of the war. and

when israel will have a full control over the street, we populated by door receptors like himself. here's what's ben green had to say. what do you mean by jewish settlement? should we go back to the settlements? we left during the disengagement. not only it's possible to let and many more people in the whole. and if there is immigration and hundreds of thousands are leaving, you can bring more and more people in and you will be the 1st to go and live there to encourage jews to settle there. i will be very happy to live in gaza. i'm willing to do this if there is an opportunity, of course why not. the news was certainly welcoming by palestinian officials. president, a boss has said he appreciated the efforts made by no way what to say to the people while another top published during the pre show. mr. shay, cold, the move at historic moment where the free world is winning with the help of truth and justice island to no way. and now calling other states to follow them. and the

estimates here in jerusalem or that they could indeed be more countries choosing to recognize palestine in the near future. a win win all around. that's how nigeria has hailed new investment agreements with china, saying they have the potential to unlock the content. we need to each of the sustainable path to success. is it 2 way street? we show you that your investment is safe in our country. once you succeeded, hey, i know your reputation in other countries will be further strengthened. the door is open for partnership and partnership. that will add value to both sides. i'm happy that you're partnering nigeria in so many ways. so much area is not just looking at those ties with badging. last month, negotiations began with russia to revive a boss, steel mill pro judge. what you're seeing is pivotal demand tightening of the countries the industrialization over the coming years. back in march, the foreign ministers of the 2 countries back in moscow were so good off at all,

for planning a gera, a priority partner for russia, on the african continent to issue. so we hit the stories to get local, local reaction and nigeria to what i'm the last of a new partnership. this was something that i asked myself. do we have an infrastructure of different seats? yes. do we need help? yes. so i think that what is more important is getting to show as much as possible . and we're also looking at ways to maximize for the development of funds. so, signing off with russia and china, i think it's the way that to go make or agencies as a viable opportunity to read the new rates developing. and i think you to work on the better for me is also roger i, you know, problem talk about a week i'm, i'm russia and china, you know, only just points to the fox about guys so much on the phone. i do got some data economy coming from this country's down low from the west shuffle wall and you

know, he's one of the largest armoire exports. all of them also i'm so i think i'm what it is like we've so in that span, so me to partnership between 2 countries and in my benefits. and i do the incomes of little gets into i looking at the china on the west. yeah, i'm situation right, and we see that these 2 countries are for me, they both places where they have, you know, different companies who as long as they do, we are staying in africa where a 3rd america and has been busted in the democratic republic of the congo, persian vols blinked and have failed to attend. his name is taylor thompson. he joins 2 of the american citizens of benjamin, reuben solomon, poland, and 21 year old ma selma lanka. of this uh attack on the presidential palace took place on sunday. according to on the officials, a group of around 50, honest man tried to storm the compound footage of showing the awesome awesome bullet casings of blood and broken glass,

as well as security forces quickly into vain. they were able to arrest the assailants during the shoot out, the group leader was killed. this about, it's one of the categories, ami, declare that a takeover was prevented. the attempt of the cool has been lived in the bud by the defense and security forces. the attempt of all foreigners and congo. yes, they were putting out of action, including the leader. we spoke with a member of parliament in the democratic republic of congo, except the nation is still waiting for any statement from the governments of the countries whose citizens were involved. we always do to see the his boss from those the defense a coffee when up to now we didn't have any statement from the us department. the only think we go to say it's more of the messages piece of good from that the nbc of the us embassy assessor. that yeah, we do

a sort of get more information about the. ready the cities in the i was in the tent but it was, you know, the, i got a lot of us before and then at the u. k. and europe. so uh we are waiting for the. ready ready official statement from those coffee, but either from our coffee so people can see the, uh, what's going on. that's the program for now. here at off the international law for most go thanks for joining us here for your latest. well, the headlines returning at the top of the hour with all your updates and developments as well. for the meantime, hope to see you soon the,

the well, interestingly enough, that was one of the most valuable things that i wanted to do was question, shall we say these ukrainian prisoners? because i wanted to get inside their minds. i wanted to disentangle the strings that tied them up in knots that enabled and animated their actions. what was their decision making process? what were their biases, their prejudices? what was their psychological profile? i wanted to study them in very deep detailed ways. i am an american i see army officer and i've come to ukraine to try and understand and taking the understanding back to americans about what has been happening here. so i'm very glad that you will sit down and talk.
