legation to minimize civilian harm and take every step possible to minimize civilian harps. we're looking here at the situation in which genocide has been taking place for nearly 9 months or over 30. 6000 people have been confirmed dead. vast majority of them. the mission of the us government itself are women and children were over. 10000 people are missing under their russell. what kind of students cannot or are not allowed to actually of to of find them and, and give them proper burial or tens of thousands, the wounded for me, where the population is being spar. so for mr. miller or sullivan, or matthews, or, or, or lincoln, or anybody come after all of this, i've tried to play this cindy game about, well, you know, we cannot, we to speak about any particular story unless we see evidence what the evidence we have already been seeing this evidence for 9 months. no say that i did so which by the way is my refugee camp in gauze,

and that is my school in gaza in the no say right refugee camp has been assigned of numerous such a mess. of course the big carries massacres. the, the residential towers massacres, the central market massacre, even, even this very school was actually hit a month ago. and it people now also killed in the exempts under the exact same circumstances. so for the americas to continue to play the city name the game as it are completely, i'm aware of the fact that as well as lloyd from the very start, by the way, even the americans themselves are saying the is what it is. have a task many civilian areas using our weapons with no proper intelligence and breaking news this hour. the rest of the city of the guns has come under ukrainian missile fire. local authorities report at least 20 people were wounded in the attack, including

a child. a residential building has partially collapsed as a result of the attack. number of civilians still remain under the rubble, according to reports as the us made out of cans targeted the city with fresh air defense intercepting most of the project. ok. all right, well just stay with us right here on our to international. i'll be back in less than 30 minutes. that was more of the test. this company starts by the take a fresh look around his life. kaleidoscopic isn't just a shifted reality distortion by power to division with no real live indians. fixtures designed to simplify will confuse really once a better wills, and is it just as a chosen few fractured images presented as 1st?

can you see through their illusion going underground can oh, what i want to say. just don't you have to shape house and engagement because the trail when so many find themselves will support. we choose to look for common ground, the the hello. hello. welcome to the big interview programs. our guest today is me tricity, head of the russian house and the central african republic. hello,

oak mitre told me to you. hello. don't tell me. where are we? will we're at the russian house in boy. it was open 2 years ago said i say it is all good. what is the russian house? so as soon as possible, it's a cultural and humanitarian space. we have several buildings here. the russian language school, a cinema in a small conference hall where we also stage place the confidence that goes, it doesn't seem to have this picked up in a fairly spectacular look as good do have events here supposed to see it, right? yes, there are always a lot of events here. here i'm done at this example of what kind of events it was up. it was all this morning for example, we had a journalism competition and you know, its purpose is to promote the development of journalism in the c a r and to show the countries point of view on current events. recently because of certain events, the image of the c a r has deteriorated considerably because is available, they might disappear because they've got

a wind like blew cause the what is that because of the serious events that took place here? the fact is that journalist from all over the world came to the c a. are they still nothing but war again? now it's over and there's peace in the country and i get it. it's very important to show the central african republic in times of peace, to show us development of the country is waiting for an influx of investments and an increase in the number of tourists. that's all. that's the job of a journalist to lead, to improve the countries image based upon move out of a discount. but the felt 100 up with us are people in the c, r, especially bank. we're really interested in the russian house and the events taking place here was of in mall who is organization. yeah, silver, silver, the advocate does it? well, yes, of course they are very popular opponent. let's take the journalism competition. as an example, we've received a large number of entries. this demand is due to the fact that the people of the c a are want to see their country grow again, to develop a no fee. it is scheduled cool. what other events do organized years of getting is

it was the image of the just today we had a dance contest on. there's a small school of russian folk dance in the russian house. there was a performance in adaptation of the famous russian fairy tale. the hump backed horse in the single language got uh, the phone. and um, just down to the court, you said that the russian house offers russian language classes. were locals interested in the russian language boulevard? i don't good lose the color, the local people have a long history with russia during the soviet union, many teachers came to the country about 800 soviet specialist worked in local schools. that's how almost all ca, our residents over the age of 50, learn russian school zones. as you can see, the history of relations between the 2 countries is really long. unfortunately, this cooperation with the soviet union stopped in the 1980s on. it only began to recover after 2010. when did the idea of opening the question house come up and

don't think we came up with the idea in 2021? on the me the don't see, i don't come on how to evaluate the results of the work of the russian house that you fix involved with them is always, this is the we have done a lot, but there is more to do. it seems to me that the russian house is growing and moving in the right direction meal. we have many projects in the russian languages, in great demand. we're working with rushing universities to bring russian language teachers to the c a r e. okay. talk to them all the so the demand is really great. is so for the, uh yes, the demand is great. there are 2 areas worth mentioning of these. the 1st is military. a lot of ca, our citizens, go to russia to get military training. now there are about $400.00 of them in military educational institutions in russia. and every year, another 100 people go there, they need the russian language. the 2nd area is regular civilian education. to me, this is about a 1000 people from the c a r r studying and russian university. next year,

there will be an increase quote, because every year, more and more students go to russia, a visit down to avoid our see our local. can we say that really strong cultural ties have been established between we see our impression onto another could be something else we can definitely see. yeah, because the demo now there is great demand. uh, the demand for was that the young queen set right down to the cultural connections with russia because the people in the sea are very interested in russia. that's why there are strong ties between the country. and now we're trying to strengthen them . they said they always know what a special buck local mentality. can you single out anything to the suiting, you know, the people who are like to learn new things. they're also very tired of war. now they want their country to grow and develop. their desire for development should be harnessed by improving the partnerships between the countries. so simple, don't that a little bit. how long have you lived here and been throwing up since 2017

goodness with you. how did you end up in the c, r o? the zip is i was selected if you will, and sent with the initial reconnaissance mission. the other thing is don't just yes, it's just the, at the end of the don't get your, your, your student or where you're already working. is it, is it just the settings? no, i was already a specialist. they were launching a project here and i applied for it. so i was sent here on my 1st assignment as a rush and specialist. at 1st i worked as an interpreter, right, but then my responsibilities expanded a bit of program. the 1st uh the map show me ahead and place what happened to the dispute because he thought he was a dispute that he this uh there was an attempt on my life right here in anonymous package containing explosives was sent to my address. so plus, i suppose, in law it, if i could, if you take it that way as a more no,

they'll say keep who did it and how did it happen? yeah. according to the investigation, the package was sent by a spanish person and it came from the name. they know it wasn't an envelope. was your name on the? yes, it was an envelope, with my name on it and russian. it was a d h l envelope with information about me on it delivered here from bethany about was treatments name on it. oh really? yes. dimitri c t, russian house. uh, i think the complex so i got the package and was there a return address listed or nothing. they didn't know their names, but they weren't real names. i see. yes. good to chat with you. i got the package here and what happened? did you open it? what happened down oh, almost those buttons over. i opened the package and there was a hard drive inside. when i opened it, i was a little. because before that there were threats against my son who lives in france with my ex wife. and that's why i wasn't thinking at all when i plugged the hard drive into the computer and it exploded into my hands. i was wounded in the arms

and in the chest. this exploded on the said, all the see, you were hospitalized range of believe it. yeah, i was in the hospital for a couple of months. that is it gives you more than a couple of months. yes, that's quite a bit. yes, i had a wound on my tongue. have you got from you to the percentage? yes, i'm used to it. i'm learning to live with the prospect, but it's okay. yeah, there's think the french might have been behind this home phone on phone. there are certain suspicions because when the experts examine the explosive substance that was inside, they found it was used by the military. it was not easy to make such an explosive need laboratories with good equipment for the bo. you have to keep it looks, it was the bible for this. there aren't many specialists. that there wasn't anyone local this besides the know it wasn't anyone local. it was specialist, very well versed in explosives, maybe french intelligence or american intelligence. or maybe the americans used

french connections in africa to do an ethics photo feel. so you don't know for sure . right. and also some cash problem. we don't know for sure, but i think is a far dust investigation continue. that doesn't know because it will say we may. yes, the investigation is ongoing. i don't have high hopes for this investigation. by the way, there was an article in the american newspaper at the time when the documents were leave. i think to discord a. so disclose the polls. yeah. so the chemo and you have a specific one of the documents that the c, i a would take measures to eliminate russian specialists working in africa. i think i was one of the targets of that operation. i mean, oh is it posted is down to the team to say there's a program entre afraid that this situation could happen again in the future. so the best thing is going to, i'm calling because we are taking precautions. this was done to intimidate us and make a stop working in africa. but we can't do that. we've only just started and there's

a long way to go and we're now restarting our relations with africa. so stopping and dropping everything abruptly is not an option. i'm say no good, that's the only thing for you to put them on the bottom and then it comes to argue not scared of anything, not the i mean, the trust company wire on the not that at all. no, no threats, don't work so much fun with. that's the topic of france. i believe after spending several days here, it seems to me that the people bank we don't care a friend so much. how do you explain this and do you agree with my observation? he's only jesus who has that going to accept on that. yes, i do. the people of the central african republic are tired of france because originally it was a french colony. later, when the so called the colonization process occurred, france still controlled such key areas of the country's life as the economy and social sphere. it's even in the name of the local currency. the see if a frank, so the abbreviation stands for french colony in africa, measures to make no the,

let's take it seriously. i didn't know data. yes, exactly. they've already changed the expansion of this abbreviation, but i don't remember what it stands for now. okay, the change the abbreviation, but at one time it did stand for a french calling me in africa, so that the colonization only happens on paper. here. what size is that? that's right. in reality, the local infrastructure was barely developed. that's why the central african republic remains when is the least developed countries in the world around that there's almost no the infrastructure of the, of the oppressed could by the instructional tool. that's a very interesting point given that the countries between natural resources, however, it's one of the poorest economically also so that you'll have that on and don't allow the people who would you forms if you couldn't meet. so yes, exactly. to do both. yeah, you think this might be the result of the colonized nation and a french process. there's always to the local state was done intentionally, to preserve the country's mineral riches for future generations of the french. so that france could use these resources in the future. but the plans failed and the

people of the country continued living in poverty. what was the final straw for the local people in their attitude towards france? one point was fond supposed to lead to the advisor. there were many events that piled up 1st. the 2013 crisis, which was provoked by france then the french lead operation, st. doris meant to stabilize and calm the situation in the country. mm hm. and what is the economic project that you're running in a, c, r s and stuff? it's a sort of the amount that the president's request. we have created an investment platform. this mechanism consolidates all requests for russian investment. we adapt them to the needs of a central african republic to avoid misunderstandings, resource mismanagement into a centralized all requests and proposals. you'll see us very soon the, i'll just as bought from work to that from consumer. when i think we maintained communication with all the ministries here,

we even signed an agreement with the prime minister to attract russian investors to the c a r. the country is at peace now and in need of development and investment with all the land is uncultivated, but it has a lot of resources, as you mentioned. if you haven't been here before, the rest of us can, was it a all right. let's see, have you ever heard of this land has not been cultivated, but it's rich and waiting for those who would come here and work with all as well. so that's why we decided together with the president to create a platform with a centralized database to promote c, a r and russia. one of the, obviously you, have you already reached any technical results? the several delegations have visited us to you with russian delegations, representing companies in the russian delegations in the medical field in agriculture, as well as natural resources. we've signed various agreements and some delegations have already started working here. the c a r is now looking for ways to develop

after peace has been established here, and the situation has stabilized. all that remains is to develop the country. so motivated is indeed, well, let's continue our interview. and in the 2nd part, we will discuss the military issues. the view frontier is wonderful. what is the support us? he said i'll, this is the former residents of emperor. are bukosa. one of the last one's built in 1978. a few years ago. this place here in the outskirts of bank boy, was the only area controlled by the government. indeed, the government control just 10 to 15 percent of the countries territory. well, 90 percent was under the control of arms groups. all the roads, all the provinces were divided between 14 different armed groups. a gift bill need to and how did the government were getting control of the oldest church or what brought the change about the bunk, the c a r in 2017. and the c a r in 2024 are 2 different countries. when i came here in 2017,

the government couldn't even fully control by going not even the capital, not even the capital. no. for example, the 3rd districts known as p k. 5 was barricaded, it had its own government. several small armed groups handled all the issues in p k 5. and this mind you is within the city limits of ongoing. it's the capital's central district itself and, and the, and still the police internal security forces and the armed forces didn't have any control over it, but it changed on down the false me that the call. yep. just a remarkable for me. so what changed the situation? a lot of joint efforts were made. i think the assistance of russian professionals helped change the situation a lot. working together, we establish dialogue with the leaders of all the army to groups. somebody in the city to the for specifically, wasn't involved in this is i was, i led the process,

but there were other people as well. mr. winter freight though, what does this stablish in dialogue even mean is difficult. of course it was scary, but i wasn't so much scared as i was thrilled to take on the challenge that inspired my work. and i wasn't alone. there was a big team. i traveled a lot. i made my 1st contact with the leaders of armed groups in 20172018. back then i had a partner valerie's carlos. there were 2 of us. then other people joined the mission. they negotiated with the leaders of other arms groups to come. i mean, they, they, they said it was showing they did, there is the oldest, separate produced results, and then we did, we managed to bring everyone to a meeting and cartoon. it was not easy. and it took a several attempts to achieve success, the public. how many leaders took part in that meeting to loans and all of them we secure to court them? there were representatives of all 14 armed groups. as a result,

the cartoon agreement was signed between the government and the leaders of the armed groups. it gave the state partial control the provinces in exchange for giving representatives of those armed groups, seats in the government. it worked for 2 years. but in the end today, we know that large sums of money were transferred to those arm groups to fund their new attack on the government and disrupt the presidential elections in december 2020. and so in december 2020, so major armed groups withdrew from the car tomb agreement and joint forces to form a new level of movement called coalition of patriots. for change or c p. c. they demand a change that is a change of the government and president, and they launched and defensive on the capital city and who was funding them system down. let me see what we believe that france was very unhappy with the situation improving in the central african republic. and we believe that certain french entities gave money to fund this rebellion. they allowed the rebels to buy weapons

and equipment to have any proof may be witness accounts. the thing one? yes. one other to the door. yes, we have proof. some people were receiving money from switzerland, presumably from french networks. the money was re routed through camera room payments were initiated in switzerland. on the, in preparation for the interview, i read a lot about sure, including some western publications there brace the question of the role you play as a part of the russian expert force here. i suggest to take this chance to dress all the rooms. what is your function among the russian experts? it is a waste of western journalists, right? all sorts of tales about me. of course, they exaggerate a lot when it comes to my role. i am responsible for humanitarian and cultural projects. i also oversee the effort to disarm disbanded armed formations, the political aspects, and government relations between you are in contact with russian experts on the ground. right. really? that's right. i don't really deal with the military side of things. i deal with

humanitarian issues and political issues. and what's your take on the role of brushing experts who work here and have a see come on i think that russian experts have improved the state of affairs in this country. they have broken the vicious cycle of one could a tall following another 5 years apart. or less, today the situation is stable and the military gains have lost their power. they have no control any longer. is this also thanks to brushing expert support? it is a 100 percent. the un has a mission deployed here, but their mandate does not give them any real authority. they are focused on protecting civilians, you know. so you could expand on the deform and their priority is to protect civilian life. so even when they see a person carrying a weapon, they cannot know for sure whether that person is or is not an insurgent. so they

protect even in the surgeons as long as they cannot with certainty, identify them as non civilian. they can't do anything about it. they, man, their base is across the country patrol the streets, but it's completely useless. you can ask the locals about it. other than we have is it is true. we visited samuel a few days ago and some of the locals were unhappy with the presence of the news commission. what was the reason for that? i can solve that appraisal and use got, i guess, be mainly because my newest, a waste, a lot of money. it wouldn't be much better if the menus could phones and we're talking about $1500000000.00 per year. or at least some of that money was invested into development projects, road construction, building infrastructure. that would mean a lot more to establish in peace in the country than the presence of a force that's just they are simply there at their base, is doing nothing. the way they patrol the streets doesn't help in any way. the un mission under the present mandate is useless goals. so what is that the

russian experts through here? what are they doing? are they training the locals and do that participate in missions? what is their function? well 1st of all, they work and it always involves the local forces such as the law enforcement and the armed forces of the central african republic, known as the f, a c, a. initially, their role was to train and now the supervisor missions, that means that once the training has been complete, russian experts now oversee the deployment of government forces in the provinces. the supervision is also a part of the overall training process. and this has these training programs being a success in your opinion. well, you said you visited send you a few days ago. it would have been impossible, earlier getting does any. it was a big problem. that area was fully controlled by the armed gangs and also going towards the government. how do the locals respond to the presence of freshman staff? are they happy or frightening?

the locals are happy and they always welcome russian experts coming to their provinces. because they know that it will bring them peace and justice of these kinds of, i mean there are no ment new group to and how the russian experts paid for their work. it's not gratis, isn't that also the agreements have been signed to take care of this. this cooperative effort seeks to make it costs for you to the c a r. so other mechanisms are used to the c a. r has not paid a penny to the russian staff for 6 years of work. but definitely, what's your vision of the future in this country? it is all now that the situation of the country is stable and there is enduring peace. there's only one way forward that is to follow the path of development. since my arrival here in 2017, the population has grown by a 1000000 people, which means that our work is bringing fruit. this country will surely develop,

and i hope that russia will be a part of that. you'll see. thank you very much for an interesting conversation. our guest today was me proceeding general director of the russian housing bank. we opened the thank you for them is on the, in the 2nd half of the 1940, the powerful european army were losing their college. one of the 1st to start collaborating was the dutch empire. on august 17, 1945. the declaration of independence of indonesia, a former judge, colony was proclaimed the liberation movement 1st led by the national hero of the indonesian people to carnis. however, amsterdam had his own plan,

which was to defeat the revolution. moreover, they were supported by great britain. the colonial troops setup control over the main cities in the country, but the countryside remained in the hands of the rebels and the resistance continued growing. in 1946, the british left indonesia, whereas the dutch did not want to lose power. and switch to the tactics of total terror. in december 1947, the royal troops committed. the massacre of the inhabitants in the village of rubble got a $431.00 civilians were killed. all in all the lives of 100000 indian agents were on the conscience of the dutch colonialists and their lice mass executions and regular bombing did not help the netherlands. their troops got blocked in the cities, the world community demanded to put it into violence and the empire started negotiations . in 1949, the head round table conference was held, and the kingdom of the netherlands was forced to recognize the independence of the

denisia. a sovereign muslim state appeared on the world map and became one of the most powerful countries in the islamic world. the now can you hear? reason stupid loyce law. he said to nancy, click jim's in the book. this is just me very the, the only showcase in genes nathaniel. so who's going into the, by the ways that the boys, the

probably the most new and will be for them. imagery of assess florida doesn't want that. i faxed them, put the notes up under that the, the would you be making the bite ceasefire, which apparently originated in israel to study is really government fails to own is this merely cheap domestic political posturing, or

a reflection of the moral rocks of american foreign policy probably by the us made out of times range fire on the russian city of the gun. local officials said the attack wounded more than 20 people, including a child cabs army loses at $1500.00 troops and one day alone. according to the russian ministry of defense, this comes as ukrainian journalists reveal an organ traffic in scheme involving kids. medical officials. at the moment, conditions have been created in the country where citizens can be sold like cattle and an id astride pills, 40 displace palestinians leaving dozens more wounded as a similar attack. so any one facilities increase washington justifies as well as targeting of civilians. israel has a right to.
