who wants a greater war and which is a single country. so it can stop the, the russian defense ministry confirms the destruction of multiple ukrainian armored vehicles after care of forces attempted an incursion into the cursed region. border fighting is reported by underway with bangladesh still reeling from deadly protests and its prime ministers. resignation. a washington favorite is chosen as head of the in term governments look into the treatments later in the program. also has no one in the world will allow us to starve 2000000 citizens to death. although it may be just in moral as long as they don't return our hostages. v is really finance minister claims. international law is the barrier preventing televi from securing the release of its hostages, held by i'm on the,

i'm rachel ruble live in moscow. you are watching r t international. we begin in rushes curse can region where cube forces have attempted a border incursion. reports indicate and border fighting is ongoing. while the russian defense minister has confirmed a significant number of armored vehicles belonging to ukraine have been destroyed. today the enemy has made another attempt to break into the territory of the crust region of the russian federation, artillery fire, army aviation strikes and the use of shock you avi's have inflicted 5 damage on the enemy for ukraine on forces that have been trying to open a new front in the course region of russia early in the night, they began out hillary preparation and early in the morning they attempted to breach of the russia ukraine border. uh, basically they have been throwing lots since they have been throwing a lot of

a lot of things and well, a lot of personnel as well. now the russian board to god's word, of course, the 1st to engage in pass over the on the only ones who are right now. fighting that we have seen video of russian jets flying just above the treetops as of russia . and most of what has been using, it's a military heavy ation to contain and to still ukrainians in the tracts into and russia responded with a barrage of your to re file over its own. the video footage also shows ukrainian vehicles trying to cross the border, ukrainian vehicles being destroyed and blown out by uh military by forms, by a judge. suffice auxilary font and my drones as well as the same time the russian defense ministry has also said that it has since its reserves its on your reserves to the parts of the front to the board to over the to be set up with you guys. and, and to basically not allow the ukrainian forces to step foot to set to gain

a foothold on the russian territory over them. both of russia has been hitting targets the behind the enemy lines in the sweep region of ukraine. this is where from t of launched its attack on the course region of russia. for example, at least one video shows the destruction of the book and one ad defend system. there have been casualties among civilians that these 2 people have been killed more well then it doesn't have the wounded. so again, right now, the situation, it seems that it seems it is still unfolding. the fighting seems to carry on without zekia of where a platinum, or is the landscape, says ukraine and its partners are actively working for a piece solution, hoping to end the conflict with russia before the end of the year. but i gave him a bunch a lot. the another resides here, and we continue to work on implementing our piece formula. we have a new signature under the piece summit communicate volt swan that has joined right

now on wavering goal is to prepare a real foundation for just then to visual ready this year. and it is possible. yeah . and the length of this piece summit communicate that zaleski has been running around getting different countries defined, reminds me of when i was a kid and went around asking everyone i knew to sponsor me for a swim, yvonne, it sounded pretty good, great idea. and some flags like $10.00 per lap, but then were kinda shocked to found out that they ended up owing like $600.00. and it's kind of the same thing here. box one is like, hey, p sounds good. what kind of a jerk would not support that, where to resign? and now today they're finding out the piece for zalinski means extending the battle into russia of the country. that zaleski said himself really needs to be at the table at the next peace conference. so with this latest front line, put, see that's going on, it looks like he's trying to get russia to that negotiating table in the same way

that a guy thinks he could maybe get a girl to go out with him by a keen her car and throwing rocks through her windows at the same time, zaleski has also said, hey, look, maybe ukraine doesn't even meet to go back to. it's 1991 borders that there could just be a referendum to see what ukrainians would be cool with happening to end this whole conflict. look, if you didn't had a presidential election and let them vote like he was supposed to have done already . you might already heard from them on that particular issue and have a better idea as to what they actually want. russian president vladimir putin for pose back in june to get the ball rolling on piece talks. if you crane could just commit to neutrality and forego claims to territory that it already lost which of since held referendums and joined russia in 2014 and in 2022 radio. silence from key have on that. just so is the binding on doors and asking countries will you

sign my p steel and they're like, oh, who wouldn't want to help this for guy lives? and here's the job is. meanwhile, he's trying to invade russia, wearing those same pajamas, some german politicians sound like they're starting to get tired of all of this drama. the german government must make it clear that it is doing everything you can to ensure that this terrible war comes through and asked quickly as possible. and that's a diplomatic solution is found this far too late. so going on at the diplomatic level, overall discount divides. diplomats of the to conduct diplomacy. you have to do that again because of russia. some members of german chance are all i've sold. his own social democratic party aren't even keen on the idea of all this dragging on until 2026 and serving as a pretext for the u. s. military to treat germany like mom's guest room, even more than it does already with shultz saying that he would allow them to just walks in with some american missiles like it was

a knapsack that they were bringing home from college. and by the way, there was missiles happen to have a range of 2500 kilometers. another german politician has also recently said that all this has to be dialed down for europe sake. we need the european disorder that includes russia. all participating states must include a non aggression pact and form a defense community that focuses on resolving concepts on the you're being continent. so there been ongoing protests in germany in favor of de escalation. and russia has made it clear that the us themselves in germany, that particular move would not go unanswered. so the risk of playing stupid games is that you also run the risk of winning very stupid prizes from out to georgia where the parliament speaker has revealed to police see was under a you pressure to send mercenaries to fight in ukraine. say the you must, the national movement and the opposition told us that we should have impose

sanctions and the georgia dream ruling party said no, because it would be tantamount to being dragged into a war together with the national movement. foreigners also told us that we had to impose sanctions and mercenaries to ukraine and so on. among other things, the europeans told us this resolution. well, this revelation comes and made a stand off between george's ruling party and the opposition backed by the us and of the you. the split was triggered by the adoption of the for an agent law that requires media and non governmental organizations to disclose if they receive more than 20 percent of their funding from abroad. in a recent attempt to push to place the end, the canceling, the legislation washington has suspended $95000000.00 in aid to the country. george and president has urged us not to punish the georgian army with this move. i don't understand budget cuts for our military. there are many directions where this government can and should be punished,

but it cannot be punished through the georgian army, which stands for our state. our defense our, the george and parliament speaker has express bewilderment over the statement. he says the nations military is entirely funded by the country's budget, and that he has no idea where washington's aid is going. so for the us embassy has not explained what somebody is talking about. i know that this amount definitely was not part of the budget. georgia works within its own budget, which is created by the judge and people. all society is being convinced that someone has stopped funding and now this is some kind of disaster. as far as i know, there was no such amount in the budget to prove by the parliament of georgia permit . let's cross live now to stave, gil former advisor to the bush and clinton administrations. steve, the george and parliament speaker said the demand and to police the send mercenaries to ukraine. i'm wondering if this is an unspoken condition of george's candidacy for e u membership. it seems like it's

a pretty spoken richard requirement for some of these countries to dissipate extending their bodies into the calls and that is cost hundreds of thousands of, of lives from ukrainian side of the bbc report 8 months ago that over 600000 military age males and ukraine had fled the country rather than fight for their country. they're running out of bodies to those who have left the country. those who have died on the battlefields, they're using their conscription. they're going to have to 5 bodies somewhere else . is that means going to some of these other countries who are wanting to be part of that he, you want and perhaps that down the road to be part of the data. so if that, that's the price, it is the phrase, the addition. i think we're going to see a lot of them saying no, and i'm not surprised that the georgians know what the tab is for or where the money is gone. we america have spent hundreds of billions of dollars. there's been no accounting. there's been no of a responsible response to where's the money gone?

so i'm not sure it's the, it's something that's just limited to georgia. americans are feeling the same questions that are unanswered by our administration. it's steve to police. it has been subjected to tremendous pressure from the west over this for an agency law, most recently with the us suspending $95000000.00 in aid to georgia. now we are conflicting statements from the president and the speaker about the issue. what do you know about this a what, what, what kind of aide is it and what, what do you make of the timing? the presses, whether it's military aid, whether it's, you know, she may have terry and type aid or whether it's just, you know, the cost of doing business and, and what we've seen again, we've got put back into the way back machine with your job. i went to ukraine and threatening them with their military 8 billions of dollars if they didn't fire the prosecutor and looking into a company for reason about where his son was working. so uh, this is nothing new for this bite and administration to put the pressure on,

on these countries, the sovereign countries threatening them with funding, threatening them with usaid in order to get what we want. i've spoken at length over the last several months that i believe america needs to move to a position of leadership in the world and stop the bullying our way against these countries, large and small thinking that we're going to get the that the results that we want to use that term, bullying from the us. how likely do think it is at this this pressure, this bullying from the west will be successful with the blue see the book? it's the plan. unfortunately, our administrations have used for years. so like your previous speaker was saying is like if you want to keep the girls card for rocks through a window and think it's going to, you don't end up in a long term relationship. it doesn't work with countries either. you can only bullied them as long as you have the leverage over them. but when they have another option, then they're going to do something else. so i think what we're saying with countries there, there bulking, because there are other options in terms of economic opportunities with breaks and

other aid coming from china, from russia and others. so the days that the us did play, you know, as, as a loan in the field and demand what they wanted. and these countries have no other options. i think those days are coming to an end and we're going to pay a price for not being what we should be in the world world. steve, in terms of george and mercenaries fighting for kids. there are reports both that have appeared in both ukrainian and russian media. that's the mercenaries are in ukraine. how. how would these efforts be managed? are due and do you know if these are independent mercenaries and what exactly what, what do wait them upon the return to georgia and i think they're independent, but answering to whoever writes the paycheck in. and i don't think that the, the most of the georgia are having the resources to do it, you know, without hearing the same thing when it comes with ease of f. 16 fighter, just that the u. s. is providing to the lensky and ukraine. they don't have pilots who can go through the training, they don't read english, they can't read the manuals. so there's ever the expectation that if those planes

are going to get into the a, or they're going to be flown by mercenaries coming from other countries, whether it's, you know, america, you know, the brits western europe. ah, so there's mercenary games being played with as literally the ukrainians are running out of bodies here in the united states. we have a civil war over a 140 a 150 years ago. and it literally killed a couple of generations of southern man, we're seeing the same thing happening in your brain, and people take integrations for them to, to make up for the, for the loss of life that they've sustained. and now they're looking at other countries saying, well, our people may not be willing to die for our country, but we want you to send your young man design for our country and whether they're published, whether they're on gary and whether they're any of the other western european countries or in georgia, i think their moms don't want to send their sides to dot, provide me with the landscape. all right, well leave it there. steve gal, former advisor to the bush and clinton administrations. steve, thank you. i was k. s continues in bangladesh after the former prime minister,

shake a scene of flood the country. the president confirms an interim government had, has been appointed mohammed eunice is a business and civic leader who's widely acclaimed in the us and west r t correspondence as good taylor joins. my colleague nikki aaron earlier to discuss the future of the bangladesh sheet leadership. i'm touched by the confidence of the protesters when need to lead into room government. i have always distance myself in politics. but today, if there is any tract and bundle a dash for the sake of my country and for the coverage of my people, then i will do it. well, let's look at them on his student pray. test is a really pushing for to heads up. an interim government, 84 year old mohammed eunice, an interesting character. c robin hood, he's known as a fine car uh to the pool. now back in 2006, he did win the nobel peace prize and he received that the giving out tiny, tiny loans couldn't credit the poor people who usually just outright rejected by

fax that to lift millions out of poverty, now falls forward to 2009 and veronica bama, awarded eunice the presidential metal of freedom. and then he also spoke very warmly about us and the impression that he bought from him. then if we false 40 yes again to 20 teen and us eunice was back in the us capital in congress this time getting the congressional goals match them up as the highest and civilian awards of the united states. he was a fuss muslim, and we'll just to get it. and that was a whole pompous ceremony. $300.00 dignitaries, eunice was standing there right under the us capital stove and he was really being hailed as this vision re and reaction rate. but uses ties to us actually date back decades. he was state site in 1971 not being for washington to support his homelands. independence from practice on ultimate a washington post diplomatic click on military supported as mom about which starts

and it goes in the region named india have not supported. he also taught for a period at a university in tennessee. so it is clear that his ties to america on successive administrations, that pretty well known for tools or no. it's the he have collaborated with the national endowment for democracy. very famous. this is the n g r, which is primarily funded by us congress and it's widely seen as traveling around the globe. so being discords, instigating riot, salting, color a resolution as a man in storing very pro us leaders and strategic nations. we don't service with you, but small da, georgia, ukraine, the arab spring hong kong bother us is going to pass sheet track record. and we know that eunice, a signature was seen on at least one of the entities joint statements. this is the same, any d which has been fine,

actually sponsoring news outlets in buttons attached, which have a not so a verbal opinion on the full mouth pm, the former pm, who now has of the c fed to india. but in the past have set things like that athletic degree. even today, i say that this country gives us the guise of democracy with its woods, taught him from our position, paul, to some people of dance and children with their woods. they cannot withdraw the government of any country in particular moves and countries that go into tough situations. well, if unit says background has anything to go by. i think it is a safe bet to say that if he does take the range that we're not going to be hearing anything like that, not kind of rhetoric coming out of data in the future. so really you still putting the soul together and you start on the standing why it is that the us state department came out so easily when that was still so much on such do you still so much tales was hailing the quick democratic well of the bangladesh the people, me,

so we may hop on money, maybe 84 years old, based the u. s. as found. then it bows quite well for him. but let's talk about why the us is so interested in bangladesh. well, finds the dash is very strategic, peak notated as is basically a link between south asia in the pacific. so they opened up the bay all single, and they're looking right down to the malacca straight. now this of course is an incredibly important global trade route, especially for china, 40 percent of his grade goes through that whole to way. they all within spitting distance, you can see in the shoreline, co time in bomb. i'm a laser of course china, and that is important. that might be a key here. the to have incredibly close ties, the needs and thoughts not less than a month ago on the corporate, on everything ministry trade infrastructure, vaccines, joint naval exercises, adults who's being built with chinese money. because duck is a huge beneficiary of this face,

things felt and wrote initiative. it is the world's largest infrastructure, which just has no equal. they are out the building roads and railway schools and all the tools digging deep sea pools and high speed internet tables. and the project has long been anatomy of the american. it leads to of course, as history is shown and prefer not to invest money in peace and prosperity, but rather just getting nations to bend the need to them straight away. so one of this really goes to show why the west has been trying to woo bangladesh away from china and why the country has seen some high profile visitors. and recent times, bongo dash and the us will work together to protect democracy and human rights at a time when russia is invading ukraine in the changed world situation. and international law and human rights are under threat to well, when victoria,

near the end comes to visit, you know that the us has plans for you. this is the same victoria, and you're going to back in 2014 was out handing cookies on ukraine's my dumb sweat . lo and behold, that was that a cool just to be clear. i'm not saying so what's going on in find the dash is a cool. mm. what i'm saying is it finds a dash is strategic on what nations all strategic and when these strategic nations align themselves and collaborate heavily with photos of america. but it's always was asking a few extra questions. i'm most important looking at who benefits from any changes that might be a flipped china based journalist and longer alex reporter fi says this support for him. mohammed eunice is not in line with washington's regime change playbook. they have tried many of times, you know, to destabilize this region. once again, they're going in there with a very,

very slick media machine. all you have to do is just pop open youtube and you will be inundated by many brand new channels that are growing quite quickly, quite fast. and they have is image all over these channels. this is their poster boy. this is what the americans, this is who the americans want in there. and well, this is what 2000000000 of any d money does in a country like bangladesh. it gets you right on the march to what americans claim is democracy. but i would actually say it's routine change in martin v like the moment that you see a n g o's, start info training your country, especially from the united states of america. you know, your days as a leader are numbered and well. instead of putting up a fight, whether it's military or seeing more bloodshed throughout the country. and she decided to step aside and actually hand over the duties to other people that think they can do this. now, of course,

the election was one to our knowledge and to my knowledge fair and square. but he did not feel the americans with joy. so with the americans normally do with their playbook of farm bank for a for police. they've decided to bully as a leader into resigning and use the traditional playbook. what they've done in many regions around the world where regime change comes in and deals come in, the ramp up the media and they find a new darling to run the country and they've done exactly. that is really the finance minister claims that starving to 1000000 dies ends until hostage is held by him. also returns may be the just and moral thing to do. the international law would prevent tel aviv from doing so. we are bringing into monetary in a because we have to, it is impossible in today's global reality to manage war. no one in the world will allow us to starve 2000000 citizens to death. although it may be just in moral,

as long as they don't return our hostages, humanitarian for humanitarian, it is morally right, but there's nothing we can do. we live today in a world where international legitimacy is needed for this war. independent un, investigator is concluded in june, the israel was using starvation as a weapon of war on the palestinian population of global organization has concluded . there is a high risk of famine across the enclave, and disproportionately impacting children. most of the population faces high levels of acute food and security are worse, including mounting numbers of deaths from malnutrition. smell dredge has also suggested the hezbollah leader be killed despite tried separately ation by the militant group. and the as really foreign minister proposed to killing the newly announced to mosley the yes and lar, only hours after his appointment. the appointment of us to arrest. he actually, i've seen the law has the new lead jo from us replacing a smile on the is yet to know the compelling reason to sweetly eliminate him. and

why this, while organization of the face of the unfortunately, this is a loud voice that is dominating and leaving the is it is a safe bet. the sense of things typed in this sense. so, but of just the, as a method more isn't the 1st thing is, is definitely is, is a continuation of what has been labeled by the i c, d as an upper side. this is just very simple. some of the statements have been made . so up to the sense of purpose and then to equate to $8.00 and $3.00 with the limitation of the captive sting. cause of is that and manufactured of the equation based phones that out of doing so far? what did i from is the system. unfortunately, this is the face of that, is that a, the government's investors? we have to deal with that. so what smoked which and the people who

supposed to have a feeling to address here is that the pricing guidance from food phone. so the price of the stays at $80.00 cat fix inside because of some food . so if there is nothing input in gaza, then that by definition it nothing is received, also forwarded to if it's a house digital cast, it's inside doesn't that there's assuming, of course, that the treated as uh, the grid capital or the great investment, the as has which is basically telling the wife called if that's the house. so protecting the investment. if we wants to perceive such uh, is there a cap as uh, as is the best buy from us means that they are trying to, i don't want to sound to them from looking for from us. but this doesn't make sense that there it is, and i must, has

a dispute may have been the one being of those hostages, and this it's activity. so you, a supreme court has rejected missouri state bed to delay the sentencing of former president donald trump. for his new york criminal conviction, the republican presidential nominee is facing punishment for hush. money paid to an adult film. star ortiz donald quarter has the details. this free court decision comes in response to a lawsuit that the state of missouri filed against new york for allegedly violating the rights of voters through its conviction of former us president donald trump. back in may, a new york jury actually slaps the former us president with 34 felony counts of falsifying business records and a gag order that was partially lifted back in june actually. and that was by the new york judge that was and is still actually overseeing the case for trump, but missouri says that the this gag order and these court proceedings that trump is

having to contend to throughout his campaign trail amounts to violations of the us constitution. and just several days after the assassination attempt on trumps life, the missouri attorney general said that all these attacks on trump and the court process that we're seeing here amounts to a political which want these attack came in the days, often you your tablet a him to he called through, so they could loan so politically motivated, legally spacious, and corrupt prosecution against him. and still he's gags, and unable to speak freely as he campaigns. the political reach home has been replete with legal era from the beginning, telling this thing the ability of missouri walters to hear from a presidential candidate missouri will not sit idly by while new york destroys the rule of law. nevertheless, the supreme court has ruled against trump here and with his sentencing right now postponed until a september. it's still not clear if he's actually going to face court before the

november elections or if it's going to be postponed once again. don, what other legal prosecution is mr. trump facing? well, last month, the supreme court actually ruled that from can not be prosecuted for actions that he took during his term and for his lawyer is that means that the prosecutors should not have been able to present evidence to the court during his term. even if the actions in question were had taken place before 2016. but this is really actually given rise to the democrats essentially waging war on the conservative dominated supreme court with the democratic senate majority leader, chuck schumer, going as far to proposed legislation to basically notify the immunity that us presidents and vice presidents have when it comes to criminal prosecution, and on top of that, joe biden also launched his own attack on the supreme court, claiming that he supports the separation of powers. but at the same time, the court has become extremist. extreme is,

is undermining the public confidence in the course decisions most recently, and most shocking to court established and trump versus united states, a dangerous precedent they ruled, as you know, at the president of the 9 states has immunity for pressed for project, for potential crimes. he made committed while in office community. this nation was founded on the principal. there are no kings in america. each of us today here before no one is above. no one is above the law, while there was no talk of extremism after a hunter bite in sentencing for felony of arms charges was postponed until after the november elections. but when it comes to donald trump, it looks like that's a whole other ball game altogether, or this it with our to international. i'll be back with much more in about half an hour in the meantime. be sure to visit our website r t that com for the very latest breaking news. and i think by.
