the, the washington replies the rest of the gate card as the us attorney general claims archie is helping moscow interfere. and this year's presidential election for things are certain in life, the taxes and our kids that are parents and us selection. that's how our press office has sent back us the allegations. 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. 123. in the is really 5 minutes to repeatedly and says that control of the philadelphia cord or between gaza and egypt is and assessing. and the complicates the csr tests

with some of the, from our headquarters in moscow. this is our t international. i'm rachel ruble. our team has bands in the west in 2022, but that's not stopping us from meddling in this year. is the us presidential election, at least as, according to the countries justice department and claims russia. and specifically, our very own network is engaged and a sustained campaign to influence the outcome of the trump. harris res are to use editor and she's margarita send money on husbands sanctions 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 leave 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 apparently linked to odyssey. 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, you 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, have a nice phase,

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 that you can't even see it has there. this comes after a cnn report where r t 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 suddenly 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 its 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 one says 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 case years 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 optical. and he seems pretty unimpressed saying the us is taking this very serious thing in date . russia today set the statement to fox news and some other outlets here. mocking the situation. they had 5 bullet points to 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. i pay a very rich person, so you really have seen it so many times before us taking this very seriously all to you saying 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 talked 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 beating clinton in that time there was a huge rush like 8 scandal we had outlets like, but speed and political constantly running, picked up. this idea that russia had been involved that have been polluting it it into fade and all different ways we had don't you don't see that as the democratic party was using. this was a don't see that was written up by a british 5. it turned out to be full saying russia helped trump in 2016. we had the d and c documents, the clinton email link school saying, you know, russia, the basic was at the highest of most of no proof. and we had facebook and poaching accounts that were linked 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 and the

managed, the office being the highest of the f b. i who just send shipping, singling out individual accounts and saying just social media joins like facebook and twitter. this is the person need to go off that this is the account we want taken down. then we had the justice department special council saying that the s c, i claims the link from to russia. this whole thing was they were unable to pull the admission to get some evidence to prove those links. we had the movement report, which was huge, the way back in 2019 again from links to russia. trump has been supported by russia . russia has been meddling all to, he's been meddling again. who turned out to be part of the pages on the phone. all you did is then we had the clinton leads again, from please link to a russian back. again. that was full. we have seen so many times before the scene

just close to the points of it for you. and you have to question how we, the system is that you can assume that when the american movie nurses population for turning in which and being critical of their own systems that has to be in up. so give me comments and the p american population not small enough to think for themselves to disown life, but when they go to the polls in november, they can choose the candidates that they think is the best candidates for them to leave the country. but we spoke earlier with stevens, the goal, special envoy, for humanitarian affairs, to the foreign affairs ministry of the russian federation. this is washington and 6 to hide the truth behind actions it takes against russian media. a woman. this is something is you know, that they tried in the past, and they will try, you know, every election. because i think they're very afraid of the truth. and they are highly cognizant of the fact that they are engaging in the scroll down agreed that

is going to be exposed. department of justice is not really in the business of listening to the people uh to its own people. they're in the business of creating their own narrative and their own agenda, and secretly trying to push that for, you know, believe uh, i think the most of the american people are starting to see that they're being lied to and manipulated constantly. they have a president, they can't complete a sentence, you can't walk without falling down. and you know, times in life and times and united states haven't been worse than 60 years. so these are all indicative of a feeling, you know, system. and i think the people of the mass are not all stupid. they the, the, see what's up, this is the, you know, this information, this information propaganda. uh, see it or its

a playing field where they know that they are being expose. and the only thing that they can do back is, you know, outside of performing an actual qu, on a country where the opposing leader is. the thing that they can do is over and over again, try to create this information, misinformation and propaganda. and as i've said before, i've seen 2 different directors this year, i talked about how they spend so much of their time and money on this information. this is a very, very big deal that they're doing not just inside america, where there, by the way, not supposed to be working, but all over the world. you know, from top to bottom. this is just information machine is really designated and designed to on the whole,

completely destroy the image of russia and its people and our philosophy on how we take care of the nation. and the people you know, come up with a lot of people. ready laughing at them, that's what they'll come up with. that's beautiful. and the us justice department kept insisting during this declaration about the legal actions against r t that americans are apparently, well too influenced by russian media. or for years, the russian government has used r t to seed 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 influenced have 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 before, so 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 and tennessee to undermine trust in the us as institutions. i mean as a result of all this, the buying them ministration like we heard earlier, has put sanctions on our editor in chief margarita c. manion. it's launched charges against 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 did pretty, pretty much continued a lot of what was going on. but for 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 uh, 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 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're 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 archie is one of the very few media sources where you can get alternative information that actually give some sort of or 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 cope with 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 our t has is something that's very dangerous for america's elite and very good for anyone who's looking to think outside the box. journalist robert and lucas joins me now to discuss the matter. so roberts, here we are another election cycle in the us, another wave of accusations against r t coming from washington. what's your take on the latest election interference claims? well, there's a few ways that we could approach this. obviously, there are the allegations themselves and how the us should actually address things like this. and then there is the united states and it system. so i mean,

looking at the united states and how it operates itself around the world. it's it sort of modus operandi that it goes around the world itself, not just influencing boston elections. the over rolling saw frame states and the store lane profit receives that they control themselves. and then on top of that as well, the us system is basically one where it's, you know, you can offer up the most money you will be able to buy the politicians out. that is the us system. if you look at the cube, a lobby, if you look at the a pack lobby, a pack openly and publicly brags about buying positions, essentially to everyone that they've endorsed. in fact, is in office. and they're able to destroy a candidates who otherwise may have won their battles, even in local elections. if you want to talk about foreign influence in the united states, what about marian 8 or saying, who is israel rich is billionaire who dave,

a $100000000.00? just gave a $100000000.00 orders to the trump campaign with the understanding and we know this from hearts. israel's most trusted newspaper. with the interest in mind that donald trump is going to be elected, he's going to recognize is rarely maddox. ation of the west bank and of course that is in violation of international law. it goes against standing us policy for a very long time. the us system is built so that politicians can be bought, that elections can be bought from. we're talking about the media spirit, however, in these allegations that come out against r t and it's not just r t, it's any off position. for instance, we have here similar allegations made against iran as well. the somehow because our t is operating is communicating the point of view with the americans, right? the they listen to is an english and i understand a different points of view that somehow this is such a branch and this is meddling in their elections and that, you know, some website is going to somehow swing the us election. if that is true,

that there is all this information out there, then you could come about that by combining the talking points directly and engaging. but they don't want to do that because the other side has a point. and so they con, acknowledge they, they kind of don't legit. oh, that's the opposition, have an argument, and they don't want to do that because as soon as they start admitting what their role has been around the world and the influence campaigns, day of the, as well as for fuse in for nations including in russia as well by the way, then their propaganda will full of parts in front of their own eyes. yeah, it's, it's really interesting um these allegations for, for many reasons that you just outlined there in any of the report claims that are teas coverage influences us voters. but our team for the last 2 years has largely

been unavailable in the united states. how can americans be so easily influenced by a news network that they can't even watch? i believe, unless they are influenced. let's take that as a, as facts per 2nd and consider that, you know, millions of millions of americans have been influenced by the points of view that are communicated on our tea. whether that be under or fall on public policy issues or a block party to vote. for, for instance, then they have their own lines, the, basically they're telling their own public that you're so stupid that if you listen to a bar and channel, right, a channel which is broadcasting views, which oppose that of the united states government, that they'll just be so dumb that they will accept anything that they see on television and they aren't critical thinkers. that's a esentially. what they are saying is that their own people are stupid and that

that can be so easily implement influenced by a r, t and other foreign channels. for instance, and so that is really what the obligation is at the end of the day. they don't like to come back. the actual talking points which are made. and they don't like to even engage and get it in their eyes legitimacy. but because they refused to engage because they continue to censor because they continue to essentially said that anybody in their own country, whether they be journalists or act to this, or anyone that is doing any thing, any sort of action or speaking against us policy in any way must be controlled that across the governmental chinese government or the iranian government, they lose more or more credibility themselves. and people do just again ignoring them, laughing at them and that in of itself the sanctioning and the a censorship in of itself makes. it undermines us institutions, it undermines the legitimacy of the united states government and their sports

people when they're speaking because they don't actually entertain, engage with and respond to the accusations which come in are leveled against them. because if they do like we just try on the porch, if they do respond to these accusations, they have to make, they don't have to lie, like they often do. or they would have to admit many places where they are wrong and they are acting in an immoral way. right now the united states is literally funding an army, a genocide. that is what the us does right now is, is a visual policy platform. and then when it said it was pressuring b is rarely government to stop this genocide, which is own population on mass disagree with. they want the ceasefire when there was a chance for them to do that. and they said that they were pursuing this season by agreement. they decided that they would go ahead and just they would approve a $20000000000.00 arms package. so that is the united states government. if they

use the questions, lie of few scale sensor and then just to choose everyone who has an opposing point of view of as being or an agent. and that is what we see today. and it's, uh, it's quite pathetic, really when you look at it, because it's about attacking the messenger. and ultimately, you know, with all of the lobby groups in the united states and all of the foreign influence campaigns that are going on going this is, you know, such small peanuts saying that a website was created and that party is somehow so influential in the election and basically what i see it as it may be if the democrats lose again. and donald trump, a takes office, they're going to again, for 4 years. i talked about how russia, you know, sold the election. i liked it in 2016 and look at that. so that case fell apart. fun on times i had, i hate to live with our journalist, robert, and like i said,

robert, thank you. the prime minister benjamin netanyahu, who has held a news conference for foreign media this evening. he double down on israel, having a presence in the philadelphia court, or which undermines any gods will cease fire agreements. this comes as the president biden reportedly prepares to send, another houses deal proposal to hamas and israel and is demanding a final response from both sides or the middle east bureau chief maria from ocean over parts. the last 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 used maps and slides to explain the importance of controlling the philadelphia course or a 15 kilometers stretch between egypt and guys. on the turn. yeah. who believes, but this axis has been used by him. us to smuggle weapons,

money and fighters for years, and that is really control now. insurance 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 that 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 2 great supposedly stating that the 10 yes was in systems costing the cap to say lives. similar sentiments happen codes by thousands of protests. those who have been taken to the streets. so phase rel off to 6 hostages were found that in gaza, and also by the families of those hostages, some of whom opened the accused attend yahoo! of sacrificing their loved ones to maintain control of the cornfield. earlier in

july from us, accepted us back 3 phase. these fired deals dropping its demand for a permanent chose before signing. i asked mr. mitten, yahoo! during this press conference, a is really control over the philadelphia corridor. was ever mentioned in any version acceptance by him us. and whether it's the only sticking point that they stayed within. the apple denied that how much had ever agreed to anything and said, that's corey, the control is fall from the only issue on the tables. what us, these really control over the, the philadelphia core door. as i 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, there are other disagreements. thank you very much. well, there, there is a promise in your question. there is some pretty long you say was an mention in the deal to come us accepted often accept

a deal 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 detail rejection of the deal. so why we accepted it as is we didn't make any changes and i didn't bring any new condition or anything that contradicts anything that is said, that's how most 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 for the internship, public sign, and people in has nothing but the deal when they were having a great thing about me before been done, said they've been, what are the big they, i've been with ken or all of his victims, they are all grown vehicle. they're more better type need in the political kind of

kind of a merger. i know way they brought in the club based on huffman and all, i'm with them talk most about some of the agreements will not be 39. what did you hear me talking? don't mock up to say what they're up stairs, but i mean, the 3 made their a big they've been in your new quarter. if they've got it run, we settled my meal. they really were or bite them, but both the bitten they want to do with the account that i'm not going to believe about 3 of you may have to 3 to present in the not the thing that the me but i'm bitter weak on want to put it differ from looking for the book that we are only a didn't we are getting method to get there are to the book and then on the 2nd of the rebate, the media complement. they've been pop up new of the home. and during his presentation, the prime minister used a gun, a map of

a israel that did not mark the west bank or rather depicted it as part of israel, which raise a question, i'm a journalist. you have literally wiped the westbank off that map. does that official policy now that the westbank doesn't exist? nope. i didn't include the dead sea. it's on its own in the map. i didn't. so the jordan river, it's on this map. i didn't show the sea of galilee nice on the school features. this is a population of fuzzy, i didn't get agency lives in, got into that. it was talking about because there is a whole issue, a whole issue of what to do. how do a cheap piece between us and the palestinians injured in some area. 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 lives 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, and remain far from it. deals with both sides pointing fingers at one another. despite some encouraging and positive signals from washington. a key mediator

hiring to have must holds $101.00 hostages with at least $6.00 to $6.00 believed to still be alive. however, this continued tain past only jeopardizes the prospect of those hostages. returning home safely, as time has quickly running out. and i know back to our lead story in the us attorney general as accusations of r t and other russian media outlets influencing the upcoming us presidential election. are these press office has responded to 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. one. huh. 2, ha, ha, ha, ha, 3, i've got that 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. the most abraham farmer, olivia, and government information minister and spokesman told us, washington looks for an enemy to distract us. citizens from real problems in the country, by the station or you know, the elections are coming in in 3 months that trying to divest the american as thinking analysis away from there we get problems towards a full name of the american people i. e. rush out and this time deck deck is on our team, you have the u. s. agency for international development shorts. and so us a very famous you'll have the national endowment for democracy. all of these are agents. does you have the u. s. department of the state beauty of democracy.
