[000:00:00;00] the, the, this is the story of freedom and democracy in so called the free west. it seems to me that only clinically insane people more those for a mom, the supply is going to live in. it is very easy to promote free. it must be in practice, and when it's only your speech, an account, and no one else's. ortiz, editor in chief blast washington's sanctions against our channel as an unprecedented silent thing. while the lighthouse continued to tout his commitments to free speech, the united states respects and champions between expressions. but we will not stand by as our team and other actors carry a corporate activities in support of rushes, various activities. circus media show and alleged meeting between ukrainians and as

long as terrorist and syria. this comes after molly's cupboard ties with tia vote for its involvement in a deadly terror attack in the african country. the moscow promises a firm response to any decision by the west to allow its weapons, subtract preston, territory warning that action puts triggering outright and for with nato also ahead . we much tells us what to do and we'd expect to be as not to tell us, but south africa asked us to stop preaching to others while calling for relations built on mutual respect, the following the from our headquarters in moscow, you're watching our t international. i'm rachel ruble, the absolute lack of free speech and a free press, and the us is now with parents to any same person as,

according to our teas editor in chief. her remarks are in response to washington sloughing a fresh round of sanctions on our tea, claiming our global broadcast and social media channels are spreading dangerous narratives. which one you to do is why are they doing this now? closing down banning? well, it's clear they have elections and want to disrupt something my go on, but most importantly, out of those same elections, they don't want such a large number of people to know the truth. they need to silence everyone. this is the story of freedom and democracy in so called for free west. and it seems to me that only clinically insane people or those for obviously bias can believe in it is very easy to promote freedom of speech and practices when it's only your speech that counts and no one else's or what's even what i'm using is that they accused organizations often love our aiming with intelligence services, which implies were some kind of intelligence unit ourselves as the absolute nonsense. we're not any part of the intelligence services. perhaps we would like to

be. maybe we could hide better if that were the case. but we've learned differently were journalists and we continue to do our journalistic work. the idea that you can, since you results without being part of the television service, kind of oppose them for about they are. it's a classic case of rejection. as people say, the guilty party always has the red face, and so there are media, their foundations, the new york times, and all the others publish legal daily. then are these links. they receive orders from intelligence services, right? this, right, right. that they have long since and merge with each other. if you look at who runs the foundations and often the media there either families of intelligence employees and the former intelligence officers or future ones. the, the flow for one are getting ization to another. i have nothing against intelligence services, but it's simply not the case for us to be at the rate one way we operate in other we're journalists just of course, were struck by their approaches regarding our fundraising for the front. we have re substantial amounts for the front end during the special notes or operation. we

collected hundreds of millions of ramos. we send drones through the front, so everything that the units request, so with our guys can defend themselves and fight better than the fuel safer on the battlefield. yeah, i can help in any way those then you help in any way. we'll have done that and we will continue to do so. as the white house relentlessly claps more sanctions on those with narrative, it's different from its own. the oval office clings to a her road defense of free speech years. the us secretary of state explaining the alleged front, posed by r t russian represent this information to subvert and polarized screen of societies extends to every part of the world and response. today, the united states, united kingdom and canada, are launching a launching a joints diplomatic campaign to raleigh allies and partners around the world to join us in addressing the threat posed by r, t and other machinery of russian. this information to corporate influence party

also secretly binds the online platform african stream across a wide range social media platforms. now, according to the outlets website, african stream is and i quote, a pan african digital media organization based exclusively on social media platforms. focusing on giving voice to all africans both at home and abroad. in reality, the only voice it gives is the kremlin propagandist. the united states respects and champions freedom expression even when it comes to media outlets. the winning, we spread government propaganda and will continue to lead the world in defending and promoting media freedom. but we will not stand by his r, t and other actors carry out corporate activities in support of russia's nefarious activities. have relied on actual evidence, very heavy on allegation at these very tenuous links the corner that attend there. again, of course,

remember 2016 uh hillary clinton need an excuse for losing the election in russia were conveniently annoying to those that a reason. it subsequently turned out there was no evidence whatsoever. the home provided a lot of people have to remember this. and of course, there's a sense of desperation now that as the election approaches that come out of harris may need an excuse as hillary did. so that could be part of the reason that this is being deployed yet again. um, but interestingly uh, there's also been obligations of, you know, or keeping too close politically at the kremlin here. and one of the man who actually came, it was rolled up from the state department to, to make these allegations as a guy called james reuben, a james. reuben also suggested that we, in our t here, were responsible for countries in the global south africa, etc. and not support and you find it is to do with neutrality. it isn't to do with the traditional relationship with russia. it's to do with or to we're responsible for the lack of support for you. find, let's have

a listen to what james had say. you've asked question for matt, for months and months about you know, the global south and why there's not more support for ukraine in this part of the middle east or that part of latin america or this part of africa. well, one of the reasons not the only reason, but one of the reasons why so much of the world has not been as fully supportive of ukraine as you would think. they would be given that russia has invaded ukraine and violated rule number. one of the international system is because of the broad scope and reach of r t, where propaganda does information and allies are spread to millions, if not billions of people around the world. so apparently were much more influential than we thought here in moscow. we are responsible for undermining that basically trillion dollar proxy was our t laugh che, in response to the earlier accusations coming from washington, essentially,

ridiculing them what's being the reaction this time or? yeah, again, uh the or t press office responded in a quite a tongue in cheek way. you know, i suppose that demonstrates the ludicrous nature of the lightweight allegations. no evidence just again, as allegations of subterfuge, spice stories and no evidence, nothing that you would present in a court of law. and i know interesting the young pierre of she was also asked about this at, there's obviously being a deep touch sent out among all of the political elite in, in washington. take this very seriously and don't fall into the top of actually a breaking into a grin. and when you're talking about this ridiculous allegations, that's all the look at. miss young pierre and just watch for her. the suppression of a gigabyte there. say he has given that one social media as a r t less rep for him. the state department's head, we're running out to be here, fly, mean kind of laughing,

the administration's sanctioning them at this point. we do not laugh at that. that is very serious. and we take that very seriously. is obviously been, uh you know, the, the russians in front of make us laugh about this to try to highlight the fact that this is all quite ridiculous. so under no circumstances are you to take their joke, don't, don't laugh at their jokes is the worst possible thing you could do. but there was also a response from that belkin who was the deputy editor in chief here at ortiz, who addressed the serious nature of these allegations. you another, some of this at this point is amusing to watch what their minds will come up with next. when in fact, since almost 20 years since archie has lost all, we have been to a different jobs as journalists, which is brittany, all the stories and the voices to the audiences destiny. the media would not allow . and that is something for which the west an establishment has been trying to get

rid of us on since day one. the prove that they are in fact afraid even terrified of a dissenting voice. less their people believe it and even more so perhaps they are afraid of this was being heard all around the world in other countries and regions around the planet. because they want to be the only ones to control all the flow of information. the only wants to control all of and they're well, it's too bad for them because r t is not going anywhere. we will continue to run our job, and we will continue to find new ways to reach our audiences in every corner of the world. some very important points there that this isn't about, you know, a threat to democracy. it's about a challenge to a narrative, which is, you know, centrally created to a client media in the west of course, under the veneer, a possibility that the united states puts on these allegations. there's a serious, serious attack on the very,

very pre text and context of free speech. you to an associate professor at the university of bama co told us washington is trying to blame a potential trump presidential victory on russia in advance. if for example, they want the funded us to be the president. if it seems to be the president, everything is fine because he's the one the i make, i'm the mid just want to be if the would be the president again, they may say that is because of the deals of where somebody may get up to you and so i'm sure the easy way is to say that because russia is like, uh, the main open in, in the loan wisdom cone please. the of us, they would say that is what we have because everyone knows everyone knows no rush, i is the most powerful country which can talk to the same level as

a us is only the only country in the world's best. so that's why that would fit up . this is before it's of rush out. what with it, whatever with up in in us, and if data, most of the, with the once it up, this is our reading this as us to people they would just sit up because there was russian spies the rest of the big guy and what they've been what they've had, what is the hell now to the middle east where tens of thousands of israelis have gathered in tel aviv demanding and immediate deal to secure the release of hostages held in gaza. protesters have been flooding the capital streets for weeks demanding urgent action on behalf of the captives. they are accusing benjamin netanyahu, his government of the following shore, and its efforts and calling for immediate elections, cemeteries, and system nations healing cannot begin until the hostages are safely home. the turkish media outlet has published a photograph, believed to show a recent meeting between ukrainians and as long as terrorist and the syrian city of

italy. it follows earlier reports pointing to camps, alleged recruitment of militants to target russian troops stationed in syria. are 2 correspondent. yes, and again has more. the pictures have emerged suggesting the key of administration is interested in recruiting terrorists with in syria to fight russia in syria. the item, the newspaper, local turkish newspaper essentially publish these photos. suggesting a representative from cab was meeting with high a tire shop leadership. this is of course, a matter of concern because we understand that the uh organization is designated a service organization. and one thing that is a matter of concern, of course, means that you have administration isn't talks with terrace while we're still waiting on confirmation about the photo rushes for ministers said of a level of has confirmed that these talks skin sir, we have in fact been under way, you just, i received information that ukrainian emissaries,

emissaries of ukrainian intelligence are located in the lived the escalation zone on the territory of the syrian air republic, our recruiting job hot news run militants. they used to be called that and now they are called high yacht tie here, alshaun. they are doing this in order to involve them in their new plans and the various operations. let's not forget that they are already casting their gaze further south to pass the harris to hell zones of the african continent where they also carry out terrorist attacks on the government armed forces together with recruited extremes. this however, is not an isolated case. we understand earlier this year, particularly in july of 2024, a, an entity tied to a kind of service group attack 1000000 military forces that also receives the health of the wagner group that was also targeted as a result of this attack. now we understand that ukraine or to have was behind this attack. we understand that the spokesperson for the ukranian intelligence confirmed the search,

but it did not last long because the 4 ministry retracted that state bishop off by the fact that the rebels received the necessary information that allowed them to conduct a successful operation against the russian war. criminals that will put, i'd say the whole world has already seen this in print bolt. so this can be commented on it is if it's similar that we certainly will not disclose any details, let's say there will be a continuation. it is uh, the transitional government, the public of molly has decided to silver diplomatic relations with ukraine without conducting the photo study of the facts and circumstances of the incident in northern molly as well as without providing any evidence, a few grains involvement in the specified events valley as well as the safety of the country. mister has severed ties with cab, particularly because of its supports to terrace entities within that region. over the course of the past few months, we are observing in increasing trend by the key of administration support for services in africa. now the middle east suggests that the scale of ukraine's

support for terrorism is in fact growing. and it's going to be that much more interesting because the united states who has for a very, very, very long time, suggested that it's bytes and complex terrorism is keeping quiet to these developments, particularly in africa as well as the middle east. meanwhile rushes defense ministry confirms its forces have made for their games and don bass taking control of the keys settlement and widening their foothold for further advances. the russians are now boys to potentially and circle the ukrainians in the area. opening news in the battle for the don't ask for public, according to moscow, see a lot more than 700 soldiers on that front, just over the past 24 hours. so this comes and reports that nato leaders are set to allow kia, have to use western supplied missiles to strike deeper into russia. the blogs, the top military adviser has claimed such a move would be justified militarily. there is a good reason to do that,

to weaken the enemy, to weaken its logistical lines, fuel and munition that comes to the front. that is what you want to stop if at all possible. so there is a good military reason why you should do that. there is a legal ground to do that. and moscow has warned a serious repercussions over the use of nato supplied long range missiles against russia, saying it would mean a direct attack on the country by the us led block. the russian president has said everything on this subject. the decision has been taken all carte blanche and indulgences have been granted to the clients and to us. so we are ready for anything, and our response will be such that they won't fail to notice what situation remains on favorable for your credit and it is getting bus both in the coldest region with ukraine stage that surprise offensive. over the past week. russian forces have gone

on the counter attack, seizing about 10 settlements. ukraine has tried again to, to relieve pressure on his forces that attacks from a different direction across the board meeting of failure and heavy losses. russian forces of taking out well knots. the capture of zillow on the piano is long. the 1st we've only gone columbus has left before you prayed in forces in this saturday at all costs all in time. this is all happening to the people's fee of a safety from which russian forces are, again, just several kilometers of safety, the size of baltimore, and which is a major strong load of you guys, all the ministry, but also a bass. it of morality is captured, its loss, will have severe consequences for u. k. that is against lease backdrop of ill fortune for the armed forces of uh,

ukraine. but the west is talking about allowing it to stripe deep into the russian territory using advance west than me. so i was russia had previously wound the president of the russian federation as well as top officials. and the said directly were new to, to the fact that if that position is given, if west and weapons are used to strike deep into the russian territory. if it mean that the west has become a direct positive but all police will you most just curious if those move to the nazi regime has been hitting on to retrieve for a long time outside the combat zone. staging terrorist attacks against the civilian population out in the civilian infrastructure of a country. if the decision to lift the restrictions is indeed taken a will be taken. it will mean that from this moment toners, they take countries begin a direct support with russia. as you know, the use of such weapons as possible and the, if you have access to intelligence from a satellite, the united states and the u right itself does not have such an opportunity even

closely meets. and they also say the new claim lacks the technical personnel. well, the technical knowledge that input coordinate strike coordinates into western missiles. it will have to be done by major troops, american, to reduce the french troops. any country that supplied the these miss howls, which would mean that they are directly involved with strikes and the both absent positive supports of this conflict. the reaction we've heard from uh, with the, from west to representatives as being the no such thing we, we supply these results to ukraine at the russian spread shouldn't be taken of face value. we have been very clear that the united states is not going to take part in this war. we're not going to put boots on the ground. we are however, gonna continue to, to equip ukraine so it can defend itself or, and continue to work with a whole list of countries around the world to help ukraine defend itself. the landscape of ukraine has claimed that he has forwarded

a list of targets to the united states targets, but he would like to strike deep within marcia. we have heard from west of representatives to coming to a many of these targets saying that little russia has re base it, said croft, it's just, it's a it sizes. it's almost beyond the reach of these. we solve the easily south, reggie outdated. what would be the point of allowing the lifting restrict restrictions and allowing them to strike deep into russia ethics point? any escalation here for adult modes could be, uh, could be uncontrollable. and meanwhile, russia and ukraine have swab to military prisoners for the 2nd time this month. each side received 103 of its soldiers. the russian service man who then held in ukraine had been taken across the border to bela bruce. they're now due to spend

some time in russian hospitals for check ups and rehabilitation. exchange was carried out things to mediation from the united arab emirates, which has also helped with several previous swaps. the south africa will only engage with the us on the basis of mutual respect and will not allow washington to dictate to pretoria. that's the message from south africa as foreign minister who's currently visiting the states. we will also wants to see it by invest us from the us in our account. not only relationship or for instruction of middle meters, but the vin add, you know, a clinton and helping us with industrialization, which manufacturing, with the most amazing and live program our calling into a new modern so site. and this also relates to everybody else issues in relation to jump on it because met us that search for also behind it,

which was respectful relationship. and we're going to continue to engage with this country on the basis of that we try to respect, but we will not to tell us what to do. and we expect to do as not to tell us what during his visit to the united states, that african floor in the face of minnesota on like level, has made it clear that africans, of south africa's not people in need of help. or people who need to be told what to do. and most importantly, they did not one part of the 6 way, one sides, this 16 factor minerals from the consumer. i think with the u. s. needs to call a time all 10 feet to speak to and as equals. and this comes as a, it has a long been a swelling sense of discontent from african nations with a man named which the united states as thoughts choose its economy, muscle, and dollar dominance to ball nations to there was also very important to note as

well as that to the minister on this visit was very vocal about praetorian, support from palestine calling blow. but if so the deputy was punished. i have a listen to this. the international court of justice to good is one issue and indicated that if they don't is that i just received it submitted to our operation, which will seize destruction, offering prospect. despite the courts through the state of is that i have continues to do so. us and it is like this big rounds that will continue to call for the collective controls. so good job of committed to stand in sort of diety, when did people are punished by this call comes out of time when it is rated. diplomats, i've been instructed to lot be members of the united states congress, too precious of africa into dropping his case against the as well as the international court of justice. we are asking you to immediately work with lawmakers on the federal and state level with governors and jewish organizations to

put pressure on south africa to change its policy towards israel and to make clear that continuing their current actions, like supporting her moss and pushing anti is really moves and international courts will come with a heavy price, but so that's the cost is it would not would throw it's lost, which is useful. and in fact it will provide facts and evidence that will prove that israel is committing genocide in palestine. these really request of the united states is unlikely to happen because the united states to once to maintain its relationship with of africa in order to come to the influence of russia and china, the south african president. so around opposes says the african continent cannot be treated as inferior. his comments are in response to washington's proposal to give, to permanent states that the un security council to africa. but without the tow power, not having

a continent of 1300000000 people represented on the security council, diminishes the role of the united nations. we cannot have a 2nd class participation as africa on the un security council. we demand and require that we should have serious participation. on thursday, the united states announced that little support adding to new permanent states for african countries on a 1st ever non permanency for a small, solid thing island nation. but the us envoy to the un told back on giving veto power to the new members saying, washington believes that right makes the security council's work dysfunctional. we don't want to give up our, our veto power. and we do think if we expand that veto power across the board, it will make the council more dysfunctional. you have indicated that we support 2 permanent seats for africa. how that plays out on they ask a continent will be up to the africans to well declare. so the africans will

determine who those permanent member they're gonna run and have to be voted on by $193.00 members. but who are their candidates for this? so they've decided that themselves has been not for me to tell. they are for good, right? you need to take the south africa, or you need to take you, jeff, or you need to, to, to, you know, to kenya, they will determine who will run for their seats. and the us proposal sparked debate among african officials with the were wanda and prize with a offering, his insights on who among the continents $54.00 countries might be sitting at the council. one permanent seat would have to be held by the african union commission on 2nd seat by an african country on rotational basis. not held by any single country permanently. as we discussed, the proposed move with a panel of gas to say, given only 2 seats to such a big and diverse continent places, africa in a difficult position. when i see where it is going to be

a very big fight will sits on the will gets a permanent suits. obviously, guys. uh not uh, it's not. so it was of a like when did, which is very davis, the best option here. you still have one city going to uh, once its going to own vision, definitely got new york and the other ones were 30 us page and the board is it's going to be very difficult to see if this is adopted. i think it will be very difficult the season uh to take because i don't think there's any of the kind of funds that the minutes another. maybe we can use a right to go all the time. i just did the p for example. you know, i mean that's, that's getting way, but i think uh the government is for the union under or did thing sits based on a particular agent will be the best model. i. ringback and that is why it also comes to me to call us a one to be working support. anyone 3 dot dot has the capacity

to was timing in on this call on behalf of walker. can you do this like my country and i do not have such capacity because my drives, like a mini africa, if we go them young, just demographically largest economy and so on. so. so we need to point 3 to one of our twenty's dental global shipped, people hire until farm. and it was a while ago. i know the whole thing is we don't want to give you dental because you don't want to get into some of the activities to the, to your interest, the vision important. but then why don't we worthwhile the country the way they want to spend a bunch in a way, if i agreed, we would push it this way. so this is why it's all because of the time to control. i'm still is this on them. so some internal global or why is it again, granting how some middle initial on your own customers will have to meet your admission if you do not initially do deacons. all right, well that's a look at the news for now. as always,

be sure to visit our website. ortega. com for all the very latest breaking news and updates by the the here in the united states. we've had
