the, the in the headlines right now, if you are not to use a national platinum, it put in gears up to visit mongolia. that's, that's a country report, at least not, but the international criminal court saying it was going to be arresting the russian president despite the demand from t in bangladesh. but him do minority facing violet in the country. spirals into chaos off the but now for 5 minutes that was forced to resign. the intentions voting over instead of a buzz, hundreds of thousands hit the streets of the saying the government is ultimately responsible for the depth of 6 of the hostages that were held by a mass thing god. and the french president is one step closer to impeachment. as a witness of snap elections dropped, a formal resolution pulling for a manual,

not chrome to be ousted from power the right life and worldwide from the russian capital. this is the international in, before we joined our correspondent here in the studio, straight to our top story for you this, our, it's letting me put in his gearing up to visit neighboring mongolia. head of his trip. the russian president gave an extensive interview to a long go to a newspaper and covered many hot topics that we can talk about right now with all the steve sweeney joining us this morning. here in the studio, could we get you back in the studio and a story that is really developing as we speak, putting the item, i'll go to in the next 24 hours, but as we know, mongolia is a member of the i. c. c. steve, what is the situation regarding the arrest warrant that's out for the russian leda? yes, of course. the russian president vladimir putin set to arrive in mongolia on a tuesday, but the elephant in the room remains these are rest warrant issued by the international

criminal court. in march 2023. now ahead of the visit ukraine has demanded that mongolia arrest booting. as he sets foot in the country now reportedly, montgomery and officials have said that they are not going to do that. this would of course, be unprecedented. mongolia invited pertaining to the country to meet to pass golf the kremlin prospect. so he said that most go isn't on judy what we'd given the good relations between the 2 countries. there are no worries about the i c. c. we have a wonderful dialogue with our friends from goalie. so it's a big deal. this trip them on go to a ride, steve. i mean happening in the next 24 hours. i understand there's also something to do with a, a potential russian gas pipelines is going to be going through mongolia all the way to china. but a lot of things being discussed, particularly in his interview with them and go to a newspaper. yes, of course, this was a wide ranging interview at touch on the number of topics. and surprisingly they spoke about a pollutant,

spoke about bilateral trade and relations between russia and go to he also spoke about the trends. one guardian, gas pipe on tuesday and ports and linking russia, mongolia on china and giving them go to access perhaps to a cheap fuel which of course in which in turn will boost the mongolian economy. he said he was open to these products or tolts between russia, china and mongolia, so we could see some development, some concrete steps taken towards that being discussed on tuesday. now, again, he was honest about the sony issue of press freedom. he spoke about the restrictions placed on russian media and much of which his band across europe, finding the united states band on social media. and he also spoke about the pressures placed on the russian during this almost whole western countries. where our jonas tried to work are creating obstacles for them,

bending russian television channels and directly censoring our media and online resources. so the west, which claims to be a model of freedom has opted to hide from inconvenient facts and the truth might launching a blatant bullying campaign against russian journalists and indiscriminately labeling them as kremlin propagandists. yes can come are there for the russian president. i mean, why do you think there's trying to log in to natural as me blocks and so many western countries. but there's always western governments simply cannot allow their own people to hear what we are saying. and of course, this doesn't just extend to the media uprooted in a gave me the interview he took, i am at the olympic governing body. of course, we've just seen the powers olympics. russian athletes a bond from competing a that they've also being found in other sports, all included. let's take a listen to what you said on. that's me. of the current leaders of the international olympic committee, acting at the past of the collective west,

primarily the united states. are flagrantly floating, building, big ideals, they should be defending, instead of promoting the rights of athletes, the integrity and universal it 2 of the olympic movements, they are clinging to their social position, power, and personal prosperity. yeah, it's all well and good to buy and russian athletes of competing, but it's really actually, it's a, you know, as a part of genocide is ongoing and gaza is rarely, i please, no problem. you can compete any way you'd like. it's just quite something, isn't it? i was going to, i was just going to ask you about one of the main whole topics. obviously they're gonna talk about ukraine on day in in mongolia. any idea of what they'll talk about? i mean, we're gonna put in touch down on that in his interview. yes, we'll pretend unsurprisingly to discuss the issue of ukraine. he spoke about the continued western political ministry support. the continued flow of weapons is extending the conflict and it comes at a time when we see the coast incursion. i a p all stomach. so i'm gonna say, well,

this is cool. this is causing, uh, thousands of desk is minute. see hardware is going up in flames. it comes as well as the lensky. well, he's asking for the west to permit the use of these long range missile is to 5 deep inside russian territory. he's apparently drawing up a wish list of targets that he wishes to strike. now again, the west has report to be turned the downs and then skis. i wish this, but as we know you quite uncomfortably, tom does target russian infrastructure and it continues to do so with impunity. now this also comes a time with the da's office cook, encouraging a tie with russia is making the switch to volunteers getting more more type of treat, even though they don't pass frontline cutting through those defensive lines like a nice through bottom printing said full russia despite this, it remains understood and it will carry out the tasks and the items and objectives of the special, but it to upper ation. what we see today is the natural outcome of the destructive

strategy of the west towards the crane. on top of that, western and leads continue to lend a large scale political, financial, and military support to the current regime regarding it as a weapon against prussia. we are well aware of that and will keep struggling to achieve all the tasks of the special military operation in order to ensure the security of russia and its citizens. so this is a huge blow to the west of narrative. the russian remains isolated on the well stage, mongolia, the light is country to refuse to bound to the west, and instead focus on a strengthening and consolidating its relations with russia. yeah, it's a good thing. i'm glad to put him at a touch down on the, on the quarter ski. know there are military analysts who was saying that the quarter was getting cogent as being the most expensive offensive failure in recent ministry. history to speak. sweeney. thank you for shifting gears to south

asia, we go where the off the mouth of a k o, as in bangladesh that erupt in the following, the prime minister stuck in resignation, is affecting minority ethnic groups in the nation. picking up a story, all correspond to whom i met you shot a minority teachers nationwide experienced violent attacks after the has the not lead government fell well 49 of them was compelled to resign. while a minority organization report as the country is ethnic and religious minorities, especially hindus, were faced with an increase in violent attacks. ever since the mass surprised in the country was faced with. it's been reported that hendo temple specifically has been vandalized. in fact, about a 1500 sculptures, murals and memorials have been looted and destroyed on top of their places of worship. handle homes have also been threatened and attacked. the united nations has reported that over 600 people died since july and mid the violence. and that

now plans to investigate what happened are going. the office will deployed the psych finding mission to bangladesh and the coming weeks with a view to reporting on the violations and abuses the tray to during the protests, analyzing the root causes and making recommendations to advance justice and accountability. for longer time results, we received commitments from the interim government and security forces for full cooperation in our work on this and bundle of dish. unless the majority nation handles make up almost 8 percent of the population. and are by far the largest religious minority in the country. so it's not surprising that it's neighbor, india has voiced the concerns about the situation. whatever transpired in bangladesh makes as concerned as a neighboring country, i hope a situation that normalizes soon. 1.4000000000 indians feel concerned, and one of the safety of hindus and minorities to be insured. everyone should bring

their opinions to the table so that the lowest that differentiates on the basis of religions and the discriminate tree in nature, do not have a place in modern society. prime minister modi even discuss those events with president biden. but while india's ministry of external affairs issued read out mentioned the tall combined with this, the white houses version of the read out puts an emphasis on ukraine and makes no mention of bangladesh which can suggest that new delhi might be the only party genuinely concerned about the situation say casino is currently in india has even suggested that the united states was involved in her removal from power. that's not surprising when you look into the ties between washington and the ousted prime minister. the west has long been a critic of athena, especially when it comes to her alleged tendency towards the top of the sea. and the past few months, relations between bunk brothers and united states have been turbulent with the fight and administration characterizing the nation's general elections as unfair.

they also introduced limitations on visa as for officials and politicians in the run up to the elections. even more intriguing though, is washington silence over the care of in the south asia nation. this by painting itself as a human rights, the bender, no drastic public statements were made in regards to the attacks on minorities, non, the less calls for the us government to take action to safeguard the local can do minority continue. the united states must work to stop the violence in bound, but they, it stand up for human rights there. it's targeted violence against they can do minority in bangladesh and destruction up into temples. that is wrong. the caretaker, prime minister eunice, must work to bring peace, to stop the violence against henders, to stop the violence against union protesters and to build a real democracy in bond with the united states must demand that he do that still

no response from the white house. that's what media outlets are now suggesting a new narrative to the issue, stating that the souls are not purely religious, but manly, political. but it's remarkable that it's mainly they handle minority who if years to be on the wrong side of politics, you shouldn't be surprised to hear yet more and see a government riley's instead of eve pissed off with a discovery of 6 dead hostages held by hamas. and gaza locals at the streets and it wasn't long before pensions boiled over. the the, the protest is built, road started fires in trust with mounted police. organize it said the crowd swell to around 300000 in the city with a similar number spread across all the demonstrations in the nation. the center riley cry. many say prime minister benjamin and y'all, bez personal responsibility for the depth of the hostages. let's get more on this

now. i'm at least bureau chief picks up the store. thousands have gathered in front of a military headquarters in some of the just like every, almost every weekends in the last 10 months. but to night it's visibly more crowded . citizens have taken to the streets, holding a tragic news on sunday morning. it hadn't heard back. the bodies of 6 is really hostages. 3 young women who were in the homeless one body before they were discovered, or on thursday or friday morning, the latest one kilometer away from where kazi,

another hostage was rescued by the idea of last week. in case of a deal with him. they could have been exchanged, alive, families of americans have to make it clear who they blamed for their losses. here's what they say, the, the, the,

these for testers here behind me say again and began to say 6, me wasting, try to do and secure. there really isn't the remaining passive people are angry and frustrated. you have been able to speak to someone every day is like 2 times wait anymore, and we need the government to know and to understand and to do the best they can do to, to do this as a silver seal. and if all of the people are out there or not, now it says if something is wrong, something is not going well for tonight to protest against the government and say you're not responsible for people that are keeping up. you guys are laying down dark sandals. nowhere and instead of taking responsibility and bringing them home to easy managing it. political interest. i'm here tonight because

the nation of israel and cannot accept the murders of it. citizens. we know that these hostages, before they died, they were neglected. they were literally treated. and then they were murdered, just upon rescue from us, do homes, $101.00 hosted isn't guys of $35.00 of them believe to be dead now, but 10 phase, but at least it takes us to live and these people here are safe estates and do all i can to bring them back home until if somebody's told them this is going to obviously put more pressure on the 5 minutes the bank. i mean, it's a guy who has not been any reactions on him so far. well, prime minister seems to be determines to continue the war on his conditions, despite people's demands and the frustration. by the way, he wanted to speak personally to the families of all 6 hearted captain earlier. only one family grandfather is answering the i'm not interested, he doesn't yahoo! reacted indeed. he wants to put the blame for the death mass bmw in these days

while he's released, conducting intensive negotiation. so with the mediation is in a supreme effort to reach a deal. how most continues the family diffuse any proposal, even worse at that very moment they mode and see some of our abject gees, whoever motive seventy's does not want to deal with the yahoo and he's the dad calling the deal. and that is something by the way, that many people here are behind me. we with, here's what the milton had to say. those who bear responsibility for the best of prisoners held by the resistance or the is really occupiers, which in the system continuing their war of genocide and evade reaching to cease fire agreement and the american administration. due to its bias support and partnership in this aggression history will remember bite. and as he leaves the

white house as a partner and supporter of war criminals, netanyahu in his gang denied, but also in the other cities across. 1 and not only that, they had always rose labor union has earlier organization, leave your work place and taking the streets. he said the families is adding until everyone comes back home. but let's be realistic. they might be missed to the right to the events we have already said the deal that they see as a defeats will force them to leave the government. and that is something that isn't . yeah. who didn't know well then yeah, it was on the ropes and the clock is ticking for a manual macro on the fence. the wind is of reason the french elections are taking steps to impeach the lead or fronds. his refusal to appoint

a new prime minister from the coalition that one the most paula meant to receipts as we already met on impeachment the motion. so resolution to initiate the procedure for the impeachment of the president of the republic. in accordance with article 6 to 8 of the constitution was sent today to parliamentary ins, foreclosed signatures macro and refuses to submit to the people's vote. so we must dismiss him as a power, so lympics fades into distant memory. all is not well in the land of liberty, a galler, tate and fraternity. remember, it was a metronome self dakota snob general election in the wake of his dismal showing in the european poles. however, despite the results which didn't go his way, landing 2 months ago, it seems mccall is in no hurry to name a new prime minister. he's basically refusing to reflect the will of the french people and the fridge. people, i'm not at all happy. he's dragging his feet. so there is obviously, there's always was supposedly intended for an old, for

a terry. and regime is happening in from us today. because we've become the north star, terry, and all the docket regime. and so yes, that is a cube against the state. we've already 3 times new european elections, legislative elections, and the 2nd round over legislative elections. i thought i would care until this is proof that this is purely oligarchy or for terry and out of terry and state. and that the only way to get out of this is to make ourselves the french people. yeah, that's interesting stays no other solution. so yes, he's killing frogs, and so yes, then we'll have to define it. it is for a french voters who democratic the express their distaste from a cons party take to the streets to call for his impeachment. but crohn's powerful western friends seemed to develop the selective blindness when it comes to the crumbs dismissal of legitimate democratic process. maybe you decided to emulate his best friend a key. if, after all, zalinski didn't even bother to hold elections at all,

but still gets back slapped and idolized in europe, it can be said that after may 20th. so lensky is not the legitimate leader of ukraine. according to the constitution, there can be no other interpretation. of course, when it comes to the behavior of their proxies i lap dogs to go to old usa is more than happy to make allowances when it comes to, insisting on democracy. if you're fighting a proxy war against russia, you basically get to do whatever you like. no one's going to bother you at all like him or is the landscape presidential term expires on may 20th. and there is, there was an election on the horizon. will the lens can still be the judgement president of ukraine for you may 20th. so ultimately, these are questions for the training people to decide. we want to see presidential elections and all actions in ukraine, but we recognize that it's a difficult thing to conduct in the middle of the world. this isn't a question that you need to ukraine. it's question to that pertains to any country

that has a, in the middle of the war. what is it strange, how western attitude change when it comes to places like say, venezuela, strangely, if you're a country that opposes western imperialism, even when you hold fair elections, they will immediately deploy their client media. the cast out over the results. we have serious concerns that the result announced does not reflect the will or the votes for the vendors. why don't people, it's critical that every will be counted fairly and transparently, that election officials immediately share information with the opposition and independent observers without delay. and the electoral authorities publish the detail tabulation about the international community is watching this very closely and will respond accordingly. as we are concerned by obligations of serious irregularities in the counseling and declared results of sunday's presidential election in venezuela. we call for the sweet and transparent publication of full

detailed results to ensure that the outcome reflects the boats of the venezuelan people. and why the manual. i'm a crown gets a democracy pass in france. venezuela's legitimate elections being used to justify increasing sanctions against the latin american energy powerhouse. it also thinks of hypocrisy and the venezuelans, noah, or kayla. combined. the main campaign against venezuela is in the international media. they want to justify a military intervention. again, in venezuela, they want to justify sanctions, again, against venezuela. they want to justify violence. of course, western selective outrage to is that and with venezuela in around the results of its recent elections were basically condemned before they even took place. local sign was quick to point out that regardless of the results, the us will be sticking to its guns. these elections in iran are not free and fair, and we have no expectation that these elections and whatever the outcome might be,

will lead to a fundamental change in iran direction or lead to be around him or she him to offer more respect for human rights and more integrity for it citizens, so back in france, while mccall and refuses to practice what he preaches and delays the democratic process, the left alliance that were the big winners in his snap election are urging him to monitor up and accept the results instead of us. victim patients still seems present for the president to want to compose his own government. we told him that it's opposite political force that came out on top the new popular front to compose a government. well, it seems clear that the model of the story is do as i say, not as i do. democracy apparently is an alec tactician, friends wanting to proceed. enemies of the west are obliged to follow the rules while the leads of the usa cabal can take it or leave us. we were talking with most the able to he, the executive secretary of the african legacy foundation. he says that washington

is continuously turning a blind eye to the political upheaval, empire. a democracy for the u. s. is a me, a choice for power. i'm profit making as result of such a political system leads to the appointment of people who are willing to work for the united states, even against the wells and interest of their own populations. and democracy is where they come if democracy brings and people who oppose the west assembly, they just want, what is good for the country? then of course, democracy is not the one to come to the states, but us applies this world wide web deals with countries in the global south, such as venezuela ready? oh yeah, and rich country or whether it deals with its allies in your the question has never

be quality or justice or peace or democracy. the question for the us is own was profit making power and control. that's why not prepare to give a kind of a blind eye to what is happening in france like clear violation, not just to be democratic process, but the whole french constitution white. of course, they open the eyes wide watching over steve and his random democratic process, which has been praised by international and pregnancy and has been trying to spend but that many cuz i'm not prepared to accept that because it doesn't set their concerns to germany now. and the political earthquake that's a rock, the nations east of the i f, the celebrated, it's victory in the federal state of authority. and yeah, the policies, carlita penal compiler declaring quote, the voters have given a clear mandate to govern. and incidentally, that is democracy. the vice president highlighted the nation's dismal state of

affairs, saying is cost must change or civil war looms on the horizon. latasha additional 15 minutes. our social security systems are strained to the bursting point over 50 percent of people in the citizens allowance system are now foreigners, internal security is crumbling and the state is collapsing and there may even be a civil war at the end of it. and we have to prevent that, and i believe that today's election in through india was also the stop signal from through india and george to come with the alternative for germany party campaign, strongly for ending weapon supplies to ukraine. the christian democratic union trail behind taking 2nd and sex. any of the cd you took home the most about which with an ac just behind in a tight race. at a cd you have said it will look to form a governing coalition. although it did rule out any cooperation with the f b, the 1st projection confirmed the forecast, the city was growing and it showed us any 2nd. we'd like to think of all this help

us and support us in the country. and from all over germany. we'll be looking for adults to explore the possibilities of government. the following still applies. there will be no cooperation with the a f d. so anti a, if the protest was hit, the streets of dressed and throwing smoke grenades and lightning flags to demonstrate is who are branded by local media as radicals and extremists. what shouting anti fascist slogans as a vendor, their anger over the election results including g, a and sex, and the german economy minister has a cold. the election results quote, painful adding that his f d p part, he won't give up the fight for liberal values. on the contrary, a bottle in parliament member of the big gun. lindman says, the people simply want che, a re, i need to take a government, a power we, i need to discuss for a coordination, because we want to. so is the motors that we are able to take government to allow

us to, to, to make all our program. and we one would like to speak with everybody who is interested to speak with us is the best result for us. and i am very happy about this, resided and thank you very much for what does the against the veterans and be on. so against spending a lot of money to go. union government led to this very important form was also important as to the north spring to the tim i think because we want to keep a godsend for the people, for the heating and also for the industry. because is the industry and the drum and the rent out, then the people who is that drops and uh, for example, can me colinas please to like be i said for the $2.00 to $10.00, it'd be more close to the our factories. and so the next is also the curiosity of the country. democrat, the government is on the as a go east side to, to close on a nuclear power plants. now it is a social democratic dream. no more men close to

a nuclear power plant. and electricity is really expensive. now imagine how many other people want to sold the federal government to the old parties. we don't want any more. that is the one to new point to we won the politic for germany. we have one, see prices. we want to cause we want cheaper that goes a tv one piece in europe, and they don't want to spend the money to go even government. we don't want to pay for reference. ok, and that is why is it people in germany say we don't want this point as well as german photos of a go to make germany great. again, the form of freedom is parties are now getting control. well, charts of us sholtes might still be joining fighting on the beach with plenty of time on that anti establishment sentiment and a growing fatigue over the b. s main strew narratives and the people are rising up to questioning more as we do this is ok.
