the, the washington replies, the rush or gate card as the us attorney general claims are t is helping moscow interfere and this year's presidential election. all 3 things are certain in life death, taxes and our cheese interference in the us elections. that's how our press office sets it back. the allegations. dear cnn. we certainly have a response. actually, we have several, but we couldn't decide on one. we even thought of running an office poll. so here they are. 123. the

we are watching archie international. i'm rachel ruble live in moscow. a r t was band and the west in 2022, but that's not stopping us from meddling in this. here is us presidential election, at least that's according to the countries justice department, the claims russia and specifically our very own network is engaged to the sustained campaign to influence the outcome of the trump harris race. are these editor in chief margarita seem in the on, has been sanctioned by washington in response. she has asked what officials there would do without a convenient boogie man like us. the one thing i don't understand is if they finally kick us out, how would they hold the next election? they have no other scenarios at all except to undermine a competitor. scaring the penguins over his connections with the almighty are t. i'm pleased of course, but suppose we lead completely then what they will cancel the next election. oh, they will cancel. i can feel it in my heart or we won't leave. it does feel as if we've just been here so many times before. it's like, can you just come up with

a new narrative? yes, we know all she's being accused as again, of propaganda. these allegations just made now by the attorney general in the us. and the obligation is that there is this private website which creates fake news website that is linked to all tea, although he provided no evidence of how it's apparent a link to archie. and that is being used to metal ahead of the us selections to influence people as to how are they going to vote. and i mean, i have to say you have to have to question how precarious the system is in the us. if apparently one fake news website i can make people decide to but one way or another, or to really sway his entire legs across. well, how many states, how many millions of people, i mean, that is a pretty incredible in simulation. now as a result of these allegations, new sanctions being put in place against all these editor in chief and also

a 32 internet domains have been seized by the us government. so pretty strong allegations, but no evidence to back it up so far. yeah. have to admit, i didn't realize archie had so many viewers in america, especially since they can't even see it has their of this comes after a cnn report where our tea was accused of meddling and our channel issued a response. uh, walk us through it. yeah, that's right, so all the, not taking these allegations to seriously say we've been here certainly times for like come on, just have another story. just come up with a new idea. and as a result, a price office was requested by cnn to respond to these allegations before we've heard from the attorney general given 3 minutes to do so, before cnn. i took it's article public online and as a response, this is what our price office came up with. dear cnn. we certainly have a response. actually we have several,

but we can decide on one. we even thought of running an office poll. so here they are. one huh. 2, ha, ha, ha, ha. 3 i for 2016, called and it once is cliches. back 53 things are certain in life. death, taxes, and ortiz interference in the us elections. 6, we gotta earn our kremlin paycheck somehow. 7, somewhere. secretary clinton is sad, but it's not because of her. well, i know that cnn run the 2016 colt and once it's keisha is back. but i think my voice is that there are 3 things to, to the taxes and know how to use behind russian propaganda. and in the us, however, the attorney general was asked to file our keys response to that cnn off the cold. and he seemed 40 a name price saying the us is taking this very serious thing in date,

pressure today set the statement to fox news and some other outlets here. mocking the situation. they had 5 bullet points, a 6 bullet points. the 1st that hot, 2016 once it's cliches, back. in all seriousness, there is a sub section of the country that when they hear rushing in interference, they may believe that it's not true. it's not a real thing. how do you assure people this is a real situation? i'm sure that was much funnier and the original russian. but for us, it's not funny. this is deadly serious, and we are going to treat it accordingly. so rachel, if i had a dollar for every time off, he has been accused to propaganda ip, very rich person. so we really haven't been here so many times before us taking this very seriously all to say, come on, pull the other one so far from the 1st time we've heard about banding russians for an attempt to interfere and us selections. what talking about the previous accusations and how to all those cases come out? well, i think the main one is back in 2016 when

a trump won the election between clinton in that time there was a huge rush like 8 scandal. we had outlets like buzz feed and political, constantly running things up. this idea that russia had been involved in a big, polluting it into fade and all different ways we have don't you don't see that as the democratic policy was using. this was a don't see that was written up by a book despite that, turned out to be full saying russia helped trump in 2016. we had the d and c documents, the clinton email link schools saying, you know, russia, the basic was at the highest of most of no proof. and we had facebook and poaching accounts that will link to russia. we had auntie having to register back, then in 2017 as being for an agency. this is before we were taken off our in 2022, then 2003 is the managed list, or best to be in the hast of speech f, b i who defense weeping,

singling out individual attempts and st. just social media joins floods. facebook, twitter, this is the person need to go off the efficiency account. we want to take him down . then we had the justice department, special terms. so saying that the s c, i claims that link from to russia. this whole thing was and they were unable to pull the admission to get some evidence to prove those links. we had the motor report, which was huge, the way back in 2019 again, trump sinks to russia, trump has been supported by russia. russia's be meddling, all tease be meddling again. turns out to be part of cases on full r u. d is then we have to clinton leads again, from please link to a russian back again with fools. we have seen him so many times before. the thing just close to the point of it from you and you have to question how we, the system is that you can assume that when the american movie merits has

population for turning in. woodson being critical of their own systems. that has to be enough to somehow give me comments and the p american population on small enough to think for themselves to, to slice that when they go to the polls in november, the thing and choose the candidates that they think is the best candidates for them to leave the country and the us justice department kept insisting during and speculation about the legal actions against r t that americans are apparently well, too influenced by russian media. for years, the russian government has used r t to see an amplify their propaganda narratives around the world. russia remains a predominant foreign threat to our elections. the government of russia continued to use r t to direct this information and propaganda. r t has used people living and working inside the us to facilitate contracts with american media figures to create and

disseminate russian propaganda. here, the justice department says americans are under our influence. now. do you feel influence that we succeeded in our goal? wait a 2nd. i didn't know, i know it was being influenced or you're telling me that over the past 7 years, i worked at this company that you've been all influencing me. this is unbelievable . now i've kept of course, i'm just kidding. in all seriousness, i mean these allegations against russia, from the justice department have to be some of the most absurd ones that we've seen throughout all of the allegations that they've given. i mean that moscow is really funding a $10000000.00 propaganda farm in tennessee to undermine trust in the us as institutions. i mean, as a result of all this, the binding ministration, like we heard earlier, has put sanctions on our editor in chief margarita, seem on yon. it's launched charges against some of our, um, uh, some, some of our co workers simply for not registering this for an agents while they

were allegedly posting videos and content on the internet. it's all really strange . i mean, on top of that, the attorney general claims that this was done so that moscow could get some sort of preferred outcome of the out of the future elections, even though the, even though there's the fact that kamala harris has only said, pretty much negative things, about russia, and if we look back at donald trump's presidential administration is, you know, the term where he did serve in the white house. he continued a regime of sanctions against russia. and it's been pretty, pretty much continued a lot of what was going on before that. i mean, now it's important. understand also that this new wave of anti russia mania that we're seeing. all of a sudden, i really began, i would say, when kamala replaced bite, and uh, in the as the democratic nominee for the upcoming elections. and these are accusations that we've seen time and time again. uh, often around previous selections, like charlotte mentioned earlier in the program or on 2016,

like in 2018. and now we're seeing the same thing. and every time we see these charges it's against russians who are not located in the united states. and it will likely never, uh, go to court over this stuff. right. and it's convenient enough for the united states that they'll never have to actually prove these allegations in a court of law based on the people they are actually going after and trying to charge. and another thing it goes to show is just that this really is not about the so called russian, this information like the authorities are, are saying really this has to do with the fact that most of the media, most of the media in the united states, i'm talking about the mainstream media, of course, is completely controlled by the american political establishment and r t is one of the very few media sources where you can get alternative information that actually give some sort of the alternative perspective. there are very few of them, and archie probably has to be,

i would say one of the most popular. we saw an example of that last week when met a ceo, mark zuckerberg admitted that the biden administration had pressured him to censor and suppress stories connected to cobit 19 back in 2020. anyone further to say that the government actually told him to suppress a story connected to the hunter binding corruption scandal, which ended up being not connected to russian, this information at all. so this sort of independent position that r t has is something that's very dangerous for america's leads and very good for anyone who's looking to think outside the box was cross. now it's academic christopher, hello li, international secretary of the american communist party. christopher, great to have you on the program with us. so here we have another wave of accusations against r t coming from washington. i wanna say it's entirely predictable. but what are your thoughts on this? what's your take on the election interference allegations? of course, it's the 1st this tragedy then as far as,

but this has become all to come in and to farcical. at this point, this is the 3rd election cycle that we are experiencing, the quote unquote hysteria over the rest is suppose an involvement in our elections . and of course it mirrors history as a us history, teacher, and student myself. of course, we remember all of these, the slogans and the ideas from the cold to of work. nothing's really changed. i mean, maybe i drunk man into kremlin, would be the ideal for the americans. but at this point with a strong leader and with russia pursuing a new international order and passed outside of the western hegemony outside of the western control. therefore, everything uh is, uh, is the russian, this information russians hiding everywhere under the bed in the closet. i really think that this, of course, is simply an opportunity for the uh, the, the,

the justice department under president biden, to deflect on all of the ongoing bills within american society to deflect from cumberland harris's actual positions and program, or donald trump's ongoing issues with his campaign and litigation and to really late blame not only to rush addresses, but what they're also condemning your on their condemning china so that all of these countries in this new multiple are order. they're all responsible for america's decline. but of course the u. s. government doesn't look in the mirror for all the times that is lied, whether it'd be in iraq or going into libya or dismembering. so it'd be a and separating costs a vote. there are so many instances where the real, this information was done from the american side. but of course, that was just spreading democracy in human rights. yeah. you know, to your point, the stay in the 3rd election cycle now where russian,

this information is to blame for, for everything. what do you make the of the timing of the solve because the presidential election is only about 2 months away. now, why are they making this announcement now, why not sooner and, and try to build up the hysteria we know for several months to well, of course, uh, we have, uh, we have an idea in the us called the october surprise. uh, usually it comes in october its a bit early for that. uh it came in september with uh, these uh, d o. j indictments and uh these allegations of, uh, quote, unquote, this information. i think really the, the timing is, is very clear. it comes after biting it has dropped out of the race after cumberland. harris accepted the nomination from dmc just the about 2 to 3 weeks ago. and now of course, were in full swing with the poles and neck and neck, with a comma harris and trump. within 2 points in some keys suite in states. and so i

think that given the fact that many americans, especially in the post corporate era, are skeptical up there, government are skeptical of the war. and ukraine are skeptical about what's going on in the gaza. and the us involvement with israel are skeptical about so many things. and of course not to mention all of the information that they're learning from alternative sources. it's a real threat to those in power. and especially given that this is a bite in administration, and cala harris is his vice president. i think that there is a definite conflict of interest here that needs to be understood, exposed and investigated why the department of justice is being weaponized in this political way. is that is beyond me, but of course it has been done before. so i think that that's really the purpose. the purpose now is to try to so as much discord in discontent and to create the atmosphere headed into the november election, which i think is going to be

a lot closer than people are predicting and is going to be a lot more violent on the way out the officials time to shut down a number of webs, websites allegedly linked to rush. so what's the justification or, or evidence that they have produced to this alleged malign influence? and as of as of this moment, i have seen no evidence. i have only heard tales uh, spun by the d o. j. uh, webmaster is over there. uh, basically saying that uh, these websites were being used to spread uh, russian prop again that just information that somehow they were being used in a concerted effort to change opinions. i hear of us citizens. of course i haven't seen any evidence of this. i don't even know the websites that they are even referencing. and if of course, these websites have been a shadow band and off the radar or maybe not even in the public uh,

in the public eye or the public perception, how could they somehow be dangerous? this is also something that's very surprising here. r t america of course, is no more a r d a has been a shuttle band, basically blocked on many outlets in the us. they don't even really have a foothold and on social media, for example, on telegram in the us, you can even use, you can't even re share our t international stuff. so what i think that this is all about the, at the deeper level for these websites and r t in general, is really about the control of information. it's really about the government's control over the narrative and the narrative that they want versus the narrative. the alternative narratives that are provided by, for example, r t that are provided by other media in china and eat on elsewhere around the world . tell a story in venezuela. so the real fear is that americans will get a different perspective and maybe get

a mirror to the crimes of the us government and their support for criminal organizations, criminal governments around the world. that's the real fear that i think is instilled because especially now there's, there's a, there's all time low support for many of the institutions, including the congress, including the supreme court, including many elected officials. and so i think that the, the d o j is very, he afraid that the american people will actually use their power and their voice and over throw them all, you know, to your point about r t being virtually banned in the us. this report claims that are cheese coverage, influences us voters, but yet they really can't even have access to our to use that coverage. so what does this say about the government's view of americans and how easily they are influenced and of course, cynically, they view americans in a way that the judge carland one said

a smart enough to run the machines and stupid enough to keep getting the lesser wages lesser even keep having their cities being destroyed and overrun by drugs and crime. so of course, they all the ones, the society to be smart, just a bit, to be able to do all of the, the work that needs to be done. for those the, the li to enjoy their economic fruits from the misery of most americans. but of course, americans are much smarter than this, and this is what they fear most. they fear americans coming together and really looking for alternatives. whether that's alternative political parties, whether it's alternative information, whether that's alternative political uh, systems abroad, that they see more align with their values, be they family values, cultural values, religious values, and the government figures this because of course, one has to recognize that today identity and overall information has become weaponized by the us government,

and this has been done throughout many of the government industries. and of course, the private industries which have used certain social issues with cultural issues to enact social changes that they want to see against the wishes of many americans . so i think they fear most americans searching out are t, searching out alternative media because they node by word of mouth or by information being shared between people and communities that are to provide a different perspective. and that's very dangerous. and of course, ortiz is not some sort of dictatorship. archie has many voices from all sides of the political aisle, and that's what they fear most. they fear most the constructive dialogue of different people coming together to build a, the more peaceful and just world. all right, we're gonna leave it there. christopher. hello, lee. i could demick an international secretary of the american communist party. christopher, great to have you on. thank you very much for minister benjamin

netanyahu has held a news conference for, for, and media this evening where he insisted again, the israel must have a presence in the philadelphia corner door, which undermines any guys will cease fire agreements. well, this comes as president biden reportedly prepares to send another hosted deal proposal to him, us and israel, and is demanding a final response from both sides or the middle east bureau chief maria, from ocean. our reports a boss to a press conference for is really media prime minister netanyahu addressed for in journalist as well repeating. he's earlier statements word for word. like on monday, he use maps and slides to explain the importance of controlling the philadelphia chord, or a 15 kilometers trach between egypt and guys on its own. yeah, who believes but this axis has been used by have mouse to smuggle weapons, money and fighters for years. and that is really control now. insure is have mass one to be able to we armies health in the future or smuggle out hostages. we've

been using. yeah, oh for this explanation and he had to do that as he faces growing criticism for sticking to this particular condition which have mass opposes and but ultimately complicates the negotiations as time runs out for the hostages. his own defense minister, mister gallant, and suggested that israel should consider relinquishing control off the corridor for the sake of the jail, repulsively stating that this and yahoo, his insistence costing the captives a lives similar sentiments happen codes by thousands of protests. those who have been taken to the streets on face row after 6 hostages were found dead in gaza and also invite his families of those hostages. some of whom opened the accused between yeah, how of sacrificing their loved ones to maintain control of the corridor? earlier in july and how much accepted a us backed 3 phase expired deal, dropping its demand for a permanent chose before signing. i asked mister netanyahu during this press

conference, a is really control over the philadelphia corridor. was ever mentioned in any version acceptance by how much, and whether it's the only sticking point of the stage within the apple denied that have mazda had ever agreed to anything and says, that's corey, the control is fall from the only issue on the tables. let's take list of was these really control over the philadelphia cord or ever mentioned in any of the versions of the deal that had mass accepted. and today is a, the only obstacle to the deal, the only disagreement between, besides all the other disagreements. thank you very much. well there, there is a promise in your question. there is simply long you say was an mention in the deal to come most accepted, often accepted to on the may 27th proposal that had 29 changes corrections 29, which effectively officiated, initiated any of them from any meaning was

a rejection. in fact, a do tell rejection of the deal. so while we accepted it as is we didn't make any changes and i didn't bring any new conditions. anything that contradicts anything that is said there, how much basically wiped the floor with it. earlier we have been able to talk to at have mass member who said that the philadelphia corridor was not in the version, the militant, the group accepted in july and the israel brought it up later, sub attaching the negotiations. let's take a listen to what he had to say. the banking jump on the sign people and has nothing but the deal. when they were having a great thing about me, but what was done sometimes they've been evicted. i've been with him or all of his victims. they are all grown vehicle. they're more better type need in the political

kind of car for murder. i know way the brought him the cool lady that huffman and all i'm with them talk more about. some of the agreements will not be different than mine. what did you hear me talking? don't walk up to say what they're up stairs, but i mean it's already made. they're a big, they've been in here. they're part of the things that i run with several of my meals during his presentation. the prime minister used again a map of these ro that did not mark the west bank, or rather the fix to the as part of israel, which raise a question. i'm a journalist of whether this is now an official is really policy here is leaving it on the was on sir. you have literally watched the west bank all stop now. does that official policy now that the westbank doesn't exist? nope. i didn't include the dead sea. it's not shown in the map. i didn't show the

jordan river. it's on this map. i didn't show the see of galleries or something graphical features. this is a population of what i didn't get agency. let's get into that. it was talking about because there is a whole issue, a whole issue of what to do, hardwood cheap peace between us and the palestinians. and julian scenario, i didn't get into that. that's another press conference. i'll be happy to do it, to wipe out some of the misconceptions and the slanders and laws that are directed at us. we don't intend to drive these people away. they want to drive also way. bottom line have mosse and israel remain very far from a deal with both sides pointing fingers at one another despite some encouraging signals from washington. a k, b, d, h, are currenty. as you remember, her last holds 101 hostages, with at least 66 believes to be still alive. however, this continued impass totally different sizes. the prospects of those hostages. returning home safely, as time is quickly running out the observer mission of the you,

as atomic agency has arrived at this f, a rose, a nuclear power plant for the latest rotation and well safeguarding the route to the side versus defense ministry has uncovered new for and made explosive devices the russian armed forces have ensure the safe plant rotation of the i observe is that the supposing usually a power plant conducted by its direct to general raphael grossi. so this reason a ceasefire was declared only observes route from the designated transition site. that was strictly observed by russia. in the transition zone, russian south is have registered foreign crafted explosive ordinance, which were found following new systematic showing from the direction of ukraine and the proximity of the said n p. p. i mean, while you an atomic agency director rafael grossey is declared impossible to say who is responsible for the selling of this upper rose. a nuclear plant is visiting the facility to conduct the latest observer rotation after on

a solve the saw of fire and it's cooling block. last month, across the reporter, they said the fires cause put into have been arson version being pushed by the ukraine inside the russian atomic energy corporation director has commented on the incident. gosh, the thoughts, every rotation requires huge f. it's from the ministry of defense army. the gold and the russian atomic cooperation to ensure the safety of via a stuff. we've had them learn the outcome of the latest critical events. and i would like to underline that are estimates mostly coincide with the festival, about the close of the cooling block, find the strongly cool, and it could have delta irreversible damage or colleagues on the poor as you i n p p a working under the most difficult conditions both physically and morally, many of them receive direct, ukrainian, french, the u. n. atomic agency continues to request additional information to name the source of the threats. we believe that it's necessary to go further to not be

afraid of telling the truth about where the strikes come from. and also about who delivers m. o and drones to attack the pont military experts and the political analyst. alexander stephane of told us the you an atomic agency doesn't say who's to blame for the plan attacks, because the institution is under enormous pressure from the west. that is not a problem to understand. so i'll try and which side of those tags being made. and surely, uh, in a ballistic expert to use uh, examinations, uh, would uh, directly show that that tags being uh, provided by the training and side while they were created. and it forces all this information as far as i know of e as of june, july the, to the end to now to the representative. so the international atomic energy agency month. so they don't make any decisions. and.
