overly laid back approach. you could say she was platforms content, according to french press reports alleging that he's turn the app into somewhat of a giant, free for all for assorted scum appears. terrorist money laundering, drug traffickers, pad files, no explicit mention to people who just have opinions that the establishment doesn't, particularly like andrew's online proliferation. european officials are always whining about and threatening these platform operators over probably the most recent being ex platform owner eli must. but someone else did read between the lines and saw that exact issue in all of this, because brass was apparently enough to incite the canadian founder of another free speech platform, rumbles, chris, pa, blocks key to grab his go bag and get the heck of the dodge i'm
4:04 pm
a little late to this, but for good reason, i'm just safer, departed from europe. france has threatened to rumble, and now they have crossed a red line by arisen telegram sealed bill due to ruthlessly for not sense when speech rumble will not stand for these behavior and will use every legal means available to fight for freedom of expression, a universal human rights problem, he previously opted to buy it right. g of lock rumbles access across france rather than sense or content that the french government had asked him to like r t, for example. jerome was saying to him that the west really liked for awhile about how he was pressured by the russian government over content control and back door access. and how we basically just slip them off like a big hero who was so badly persecuted that he was never actually arrested or charged with anything in russia. and well, telegram is still operational there today,
4:05 pm
while durham is free to go around the world, promoting himself as a professional victim of russia. durham, even so right in line with the top down you demands the sensor, r t and other russian media outlets at the request. but he had also recently started to change his tune to one that probably wasn't such a crowd pleaser for the western establishment. we got too much attention from the, the, at the i, the security agencies, wherever we came to the us. i brought an engineer that is working for telegram and it was an attempt to secretly hire my engineer behind me and back by cyber security officers officers. the events of january of the 6 we received a letter from i believe, uh, congressman of the democratic side. and they requested that we would share all the data we had in relation to what they called this uprising.
4:06 pm
the letter seemed very serious and the letter said, you know, if your fail to comply with this request, he will be in violation with the us constitution. the hot tapes have been rolling in seems during the rest. of course there is no actual proof that this has to do with the free speech. but the western establishment does have a nasty habit of cloaking its authoritarian tendencies in national security or serious criminality. which basically makes it impossible the rule of that being the case here as well. and once they get access or control over one thing, they have it for every thing. so based on prior reporting out of germany and the netherlands telegram has been responsive to court orders for disclosure of information on national security grounds in very limited cases of immediate threat
4:07 pm
to life. but there's no shortage of people watching all of this right now. i'm thinking that that might just be a way to use course and to push open the window. busy to a lot more cooperation from the app, then they, the authorities normally would be able to get otherwise p, o, v. it's 20, so it's in europe and you'll being executed for liking a mean using allied countries to circumvent 1st amendment protections is the new rendition. the arrest of durham is an assault on the basic human rights of speech and association. i am surprised and deeply saddened that my crime has to send it to the level of taking hostages. as a means for gaining access to private communications. it lowers, not only france, but the world makes you wonder how government ever managed to investigate crimes before mobile apps and the internet came along, if they're so desperate to rely on them to figure out what's going on. american officials are constantly whining about facebook found marcus, doctor bird,
4:08 pm
not doing enough about sex. pass on his apps like he's responsible for every tree phone line and i guess garage was now in the same basket. zachary has never been arrested though. maybe it's just a coincidence that he also bends the ne, whenever asked, by the establishment. a couple of dozen western backs and use are pretty quick to denounce an order blocking telegram as free speech interference when it was a russian port issue. and yet, it will be interesting to see how long it takes them to react this time when it's france, a prominent member of the western establishment that's leading the charge. american tech tech who nail on loss is among those speaking out against or opposite arrest. many are now asking if the ex platform owner himself could be next antelli and deputy prime minister mateo. so vinny is among them in europe. we are now faced with censorship, with the stink of regime long live freedom of thought and of speech. who will be
4:09 pm
the next to be gagged? the great and inconvenient you on mosque? well, some critics appear to even be directly fronting mosque. among them is that around us politician, alexander vin man who happens to have a history of involvement and scandals related to ukraine. a while dear of holes french citizenship is arrested for violating french rule. this has broader implications for other social media, including twitter. there's a growing intolerance for platforming. this and phone malign influence and the growing appetite for accountability most could be none of us. well be very well may go after e one less. they already sent him a very threatening letter just a few weeks ago. this was sent to e, one less from the additional commissioner. terry breton warning him that if he does not take action further, restrict incense or content, of course they didn't use his exact words. but they basically told him, if he does not moderate his platform properly,
4:10 pm
especially with regard to some of the material that was being shared on his platform regarding the current political situation in the u. k that you on last may find himself in a, in a law suit. so i think right now what you have with the rest of pebbles or of is you have this sending a message to people like you on must. and perhaps even mark soccer bird that if they do not moderate their platform and perhaps sensor even more that they too can find themselves in a situation where they are facing 12 counts of conspiracy to a number of terrific crimes. but let me be clear, this is really not about illegal activity on the platforms. this is not really about drug traffic game or child abuse. this is about censorship. it's about preventing people's access to information that goes contrary to the establishment narrative from a law, the indian government is report delay investigating tele grandma's suspicions of alleged criminal misuse emerge. indian supreme court lawyer destro autonomy gums
4:11 pm
says the apps use and illegal activities does not justify paris jailing its founder as well as our. busy religion big thomas box prior to the most, no need to worry if they have budget, then there's a process going to get down there by the dimension and get into the, the, to the, to the doctors. because it's, it's doing the burdens there. there's noticed something on the grandma this was. ringback the sides this i personally in the independent of the goals which i have and their father does that i me, which domain are better? because gauge bar go to the gym to ensure investigation and again, it's not a pretty good general just doesn't go. a lot of us, however, we do national guard based on the last barrier engine various other countries. the . busy the sar major good engine don't doing. ringback you know,
4:12 pm
north is all done by is all right. and uh, the back industries in it, just because you started the oceans and it's out in the block and saucy, besides french, lots of people ended up getting strained on such a goal. and then the french authorities have the power another that long you get in the most of those, you know, in any notice all the lights on air and online. we've got you covered for more on how prominent russian media and the political figures have reacted to the rest of the problems are of you can head to our website r t dot com. the kids correct? down on your print in orthodox church follower is, is ramping up one of the countries m. p. 's who lashed out at the village. his band was later accused of assaulting a ukrainian law enforcement officer and then claimants. his family was almost
4:13 pm
kidnapped as they fled to europe. someone tried to kidnap my family, my mother and my wife and 2 small children were almost kidnapped from a hotel in europe yesterday after the 1st unsuccessful attempt and the measures we took, they tried again at the airport. as everything we know is based on the statements of that ard sounds we took, posted on his telegram channel. yes, the claims that there wasn't, that's hadn't said a kid, nothing that took place somewhere in europe. we didn't. we don't know where exactly you crazy in the claims that he fled the country, viola. that's all we know, and he claims our time to be true on his telegram channel states that local police apparently have been alerted and that they have the names and car details of the perpetrators. and that's some form of an investigation is underway. but he claims that the cameras team is behind it. and the reason why they did this is because of his stones on the cranium parliaments adopting this bill,
4:14 pm
which basically bands the russian length, orthodox church of the ukraine. so and of course a millions of ukrainians are part of the church. so of course, the subset many people, including the somebody who was there, is very vocal in parliament when they were considering this, your word, your cousins boss, was able to d that you korean parliament has made a fatal mistake by voting in favor of banning the ukrainian orthodox church, and this mistake without any doubts, will cause tragic consequences for the entire ukrainian people. there's no laws can prevent us from frank visiting temples, defending our faith. there are no obstacles to this, just as there were none for the lord. so shortly after that he fled, and the criminal case was open to him illegally crossing the border, but that's on top of and all the criminal case. and that one is in regards to his altercations with law enforcement officers. one was in k of another. one was an odessa now to true claims that all these cases were fabricated by zalinski team
4:15 pm
because they want him out and they want to punish him for his belief space. so besides being passionately opposed to this recent found on the orthodox church, what more do we know about this month? well, he started, uh, he came from the world of sports and security, and you've really answered politics in 2019 from odessa. one point, he was even the parts officer lensky is party, but then who was quickly dismissed, i guess because his views that in the line with the landscape. and we'll save time and time again that ukrainian nationalists were really against them because of certain actions that they deemed as pro russian. for example, he was one of the people who laid flowers to the victims of the old desktop mastercard, ukrainian nationalist. there understand what he had to do, that after all, it was pro russians separate sisters besides who died. so why are you laying flowers to them? they're the enemy. he didn't agree with that. then we have again, this february, he actually posted the bail for one of the priests who was detained for stealing
4:16 pm
rupture propaganda. apparently they didn't like that because he's helping out a police who happens to perhaps agree with russia in some way, shape or form. he saw this is purely something religious and that that man needs to be supported. then we have the course of incursion disaster. and he also spoke out about that and he made truth and all of his telegram channel. he said that ukrainian soldiers would separating monuments, that they were making fun of the elderly, the locals in the course, that there were also stealing from them stealing from shops. then he spoke out against his bill. so of course everything was same. there really goes down. well, with the cube machine and he believes that this is them trying to punish him. and this is how he summed up how he can use this case. today's events are just more proof that the current government, this gary now the systemic and cynical persecution of all those who have the courage to oppose their dictates. i am called the traitor only because they do not bogged down to the authorities and did not keep silence when in justice occurs. officials are not saying anything right now and key of bod. soleski did announce
4:17 pm
a meeting with a law enforcement officers after that to discuss those who fled, he didn't mention this m p by name. but those in the know claim that this is exactly what this is about. and they want to find the way to punish those who fled physical food should regarding those who work against all state traits is to ukraine, to help russian aggression to justify who flight you train fighting from responsibility . all state needs clear on says about such people the clear responsibility so that all these comm rates get what they deserve, wherever they hide, and wherever they run. we're waiting now for a continuation of this case either on the troops telegram channel or he seems to be posting all the updates has that happened to him or something, at least from the officials and ukraine, about this case about him in particular, before civilians had been injured after ukrainian drone struck a high rise residential building in the central russian and the city of serrato for
4:18 pm
more than 800 kilometers away from the front lines. so one woman was hospitalized in serious condition after the attack. another drunk also hit the 2nd building in the city as the latest ukrainian, striking deep into russian territory. the incident coincided with what moscow called a targeted assault on military, an energy infrastructure across ukraine. on monday morning. all right, well joining me now from us capitol is former pentagon senior security policy analyst, michael maloof. michael finish from the scene in serrato shows up precise strike on a high rise residential building. what do you make of kids forces targeting residential facilities like this? well that's not it, it underscores how they can proper so you know what the ukrainians have been saying
4:19 pm
that that and also the use of the weaponry that the claim is supposed to be going to have to military targets. in this case, that was a directive, as you, as you just as you one of that. now there is a base, a strategic base in the, in the area called angles, airbus and has to teach a bombers on what were these uh, drones, a mess. it gets them and, and the buildings gotten away, but uh, uh, be that as it may just fly into the city like this. uh, clearly uh, suggest very strongly that they're aiming more ad civilian targets rather than military targets. tabs assault on serrato have happened while moscow was launching airstrikes that military and infrastructure sites across ukraine. so here we have a long range attacks by opposing sides taking place on the same day. how would you compare these 2 approaches as well?
4:20 pm
the attack on the infrastructure in ukraine was in response to the course in invasion. and it has been practiced to go after infrastructure that supports military targets and um which, which, which, which would also include your energy, your water, and whether they're not aiming indiscriminately at the civilian high rises or anything of the sort. so that's, i'm like what the ukrainians are doing right now. so there's, there's, there is a difference in, in the methodology here and, and, and in the crate is as far as i'm concerned, are up to $200.00. take more of a terror approach to terrorize the civilians themselves and hopes that it's going to undermine support for the, for the government. and that's just not going to be the case of anything that solidify and support for the government. particularly in the course area. you know,
4:21 pm
when you, when you recall the, the history of what happened in world war 2 and, and that this has real symbolic thinking for, for the people in that region and, and the history of what and what, when you see uh, looks like the, and the german uh, takes with iron crosses rolling today in the, in the area its, um, it brings back a lot of the haunting memories for people who lived in that area. so you cant blame them for uh uh, wanting to reinforce their, their uh, their commitment to, to protecting the homeland. so that's what's basically happening here. michael. the west is always quick to cry, fall whenever civilian casualties happen in ukraine, and that has happened and it is of course projects but, but there seems to be no reaction with the same occurs in russia. what do you make of that? it was typical in any war and you,
4:22 pm
you always demonize the enemy. you call them the enemy in that way. you don't humanize, but uh, you know, the, the war, the warrant done, boss, it has been going on for 8 years a unrelentingly until russia finally stepped in it almost on a daily basis. you had keys showing the dumbass region. and finally the, the residence of dunbar. last regions call for help and, and it isn't like, it isn't like a the, the military military operation occurred on when it was the, it, there was 8 years of this type of showing a relentless showing of civilians and the west, it said nothing. there was, there was no coverage by the mainstream media in the west of that. and that was purposeful. and they don't because they did. and,
4:23 pm
and because of the united states basically created the entire catastrophe called the crane today is going back to the 2014, it's in the m, the and the crew, the legitimate government which is contrary to our police to us believe so of democracy unless it's, it's, it's no longer convenient, then they're gonna, they're going to take action. so they, they head of the rules based order not only makes the rules that can break and that will. and that's what we're seeing here. michael, ukrainian drones have been heading cities across russia as far away as a 1000 kilometers from the front lines over the weekend. we saw a large number of drones target. moscow neighbor all struck down uh cubes. so keeps asking the west for even more powerful long range within weapons like cruise missiles, but sort of escalation. could we see as well,
4:24 pm
they're adopted. they're going to get them alternately. they, they, the whole idea of the incursion in the course and neighboring lessons are meant to then allow for uh using those, those areas as platforms for a greater missile shoots. it took to extend the range and, and ultimately to try and get rushing it to moscow. so this is, this is their, their, their, their hand, but it's not going to work. and, and even though they're just drawing the bridges that in which they come, you know, my, my question is how they're going to get supplies in there to do what they want to do. i, they basically have, uh, they're basically sawn off the ranch on which they sit. so i, i don't understand ukraine strategy and this, they pulled troops out of the out of the boss region that allowed now russia to
4:25 pm
actually make greater advances. and you would think that they would want to protect the whatever grounds like they can rather than trying to independently. now go into the, into the russian federation. i don't know how they're going to protect their position . now you're hearing clients that they don't intend to stay. okay, so why are you there on the 1st place? you're not gonna accomplish anything in what i i gather that it's meant for some kind of a, a leveraging for negotiation. what negotiation the fact that they're in the course . i doubt seriously that there will be grouse for that goes jason, until the ukrainians are completely routed from, from all of russia period. so nothing was accomplished. they actually, it's a net loss for the ukrainians. and i think that uh, you know, the west is beginning to see that it is increasingly futile to continue to pour in my, in, in, in, in arms to a loop to a last effort. all right,
4:26 pm
well leave it their former pentagon sooner security policy analyst, michael maloof. michael, thank you. thank you. when i to us to africa, where locals in burkina faso have rallied against the crate and support for militant groups in the region reflecting a wider sentiment across the hill. the demonstrators accuse key of, of back in terrorist, the support from nato, france, and particular. we want the country to separate ties with ukraine, following the lead of molly, and that means their test results are back to request by the threes to help states for the un security council to take measures against ukraine. support for insurgency forces in africa. r t correspondent level you can get, it picks up the story. it is the people in fact. so the reason behind all of this is as you information and facts have come to light about you crazy. i'm fine and single to rest in the region. in late july faxes from the back and approved for a company to the modern army in watts of the modem for the
4:27 pm
a stabilizing operation in the town, often as our attend near the tube in boulder. that mission quickly went sideways when fighting broke out between that condition, add rebels from the to our with who put i mean, retreat back 9 model and forces were ambushed by the militants about a 2 full vac now and 45 model. soldiers were killed in the fighting ukraine submitted scene changes at that time was very quickly to claim responsibility. evidence sent to the official postponed to the fact that the rebels received the necessary information that allowed them to conduct a successful operation against the russian war criminals. the whole world has already seen this in principle, this can be commended on. we certainly will not disclose any details, but let's say there will be a continuation. this is sensitive information. therefore, everything that you cream does is happening within the limits and within the framework of international law. taking into account all the necessary procedures is
4:28 pm
which is what you have has back tracked on it statements. the in fact that both now looks closer to a defeats for kids after the governor's office looking across. so mind the, i use the road to, to the not to be some security council, demanding it to denounce ukraine's electric support to offer able i'm seeing this, the whole region. and it was off to see that tomorrow the m e z cut to for magic ties between a fossil condemning, divide into tax ad april 6th, pressing it strong disapproval offer praise attack. that was the reason pushing ukraine to start denying its involvement. but the damage had already been done, and this the health states would not buying into those lies, haven't listened to this. this is official and unequivocal support by the creating government for terrorism in africa, particularly in us to help this x also constitute a violation of a sovereignty entered tauriel integrity of our states include regression and
4:29 pm
support for international terrorism and flagrant violation of the charter of the united nations and the relevant international conventions. you know, according to an odyssey sauce, just before the attack and marty the, to our rig rebels visited ivory coast with they apparently mitchell with the ukranian intelligence ad received parts offer drones that was sent to v using diplomatic main. that's even, there's even a report from but my guy, a model in publication telling us that i've read close to has more sen investigation against the training in the scene. obviously on following suspicions off the involvement of different mac take diplomats rather in military training activities. now this is an investigation that is taking place during a very intense context, which is also mocked by the visa and condemnation by modeling music and putting
4:30 pm
a fossil off. you praise, hold for an ad. i seem to support the potential risk groups in this a house. there's also words on social media car and feed back to the recent openings of your trade in the season. part of the african continent, particularly in ivory coast, is quite possibly given that to create is in the middle of a conflict. now, speculation is mounting over the possibility that the embassy in ivory coast was opened as a supplier to for, to risk in this the house region. you live to wonder if all these, as the embassies that have been opened by ukraine would be doing the same thing. on the african continent as well. well, now to pakistan or at least to 70 people have been killed in a series of militant attacks in the southwestern province of the largest in the area is known for a long standing. and.
