the strokes while you domain antola, which is no longer a current, see what a weapon used and abused to secure america's loss, being had too many to keep intact the rules based on what some rules are illegal, sit on his own web. some i see see warrants a good but others aren't where the rules are for some not for old times are changing. i'm countries a time not just overhead pulled proceeds, but also being treated a 2nd call. citizens anxious to be living at the wins of a few useless shameless. she's no coincidence that there is now talk about switching to national currencies, who knows which side of the badge the us president will get out of tomorrow, and who will fall out of his favor. this move to trading in local currencies is an act of self defense and it is picking up pace every day. around 65 percent

of the trade between bricks members now bypasses the greenback in brochure and china is case it's 95 percent. now the, our room is of a new thing to do with the us dollar payment system a bit like swift, but which, unlike swift, the white house calling just caught nations off from when it's in a bad news. and this is part of creating an, a political alternative to wall door to that's out of date, out of touch. and very often out for a lot brick stairs inbox or an a huge jump in these efforts to build a well, that is fair, a word that is just a word that is also inclusive and prosperous. the west wants to control the discourse in the world, but we can no longer accept it because they are no longer a colonial power. and independent conscious should be free to express themselves.

the world is no longer uni pulled and the rise of bricks including china, has offered a glimmer of hope that there are checks and balances in the world. and the mute the multiple, the world has become a reality. more and more countries are speaking out for a fair world order and are ready to resolutely upholden legitimate rights and protect traditional values. new centers of power and economic growth are emerging and growing stronger. i do need for a long time the world has witnessed and influenced driven global holder. today's world seeks come feelings not to influence. this coalition of emerging economies has demonstrated the importance of adding different voices to the global debate. we believe that a multi polar world is better than a unipolar domination or a bipolar dispute. the creation of various networks, various agreements between countries can help balance out conflicting trends and tensions. the right thing is on the wall, the center of power, both political and economic is shifting east and south and bricks. bricks is

the face of the driver of that change out not to compete, not to challenge, not to criticize. impose conditions on what to well, leave the bricks for a new truly rules based older, one of which this time everyone plays by the same yeah, it's just such a good report from sounds good taylor right, that sounds good. we'll be joining us here in this special pseudo probably next hour as i understand. but let's take this conversation further than i would for my friend to go on senior security policy. i'm as of michael believe now, joining us here for i'll continue special coverage. michael, great to get to the studio. thank you very much for coming. one of the comments from food and at also the credit and spokes person to meet your pest golf. very recently, basically saying that brooks is not in a position to the west. it's not anything confrontational, it's, it's, it's, it's all about peaceful, co existence. right?

but the white house has publicly said it doesn't see brakes as a threat in any way. but michael, do you think that's what they're saying? find close tones? well, thanks for having me. absolutely not to in fact, i think they're very concerned about it. considering that a lot of the traditional partners. yeah. of the, of the united states and the west have, are now interested in joining bricks or have become members. yeah, this is raising some alarms and i don't think they have a response and the only response i've seen to date is that the buying harris whitehouse only wants to create new defense alliance. yeah. oh yeah. yeah. y y. yeah. oh, that's a good question because i don't have an answer to this to this potential challenge, which i probably regard as a threat. it's more of an economic challenge on the one hand, right? but on the other hand, it has political dimensions. of course you're, you're, you're having a not quite a number of 36 countries now that are interested in joining britta. they, they all have different cultures. they have different ideologies and,

and what bricks tends to bring these together in a way that it's, they're not conflicting. that's really another. well, i mean, as you will know by now, michael, that know brooks members will have to sanction. i know that bricks meant, but that's correct which, which really gives you a great kind of perspective on the, on the general principle of the bricks, strategic family. now what about when it comes to, for example, just watching the event today and the exhibition the expo center with all these wild leaders gathering? what do you think? i mean that that's going to be some western leaders who are watching this or what do you think they think? i think it's gonna be hard for many of them. they're interested in the one hand, you know, many of these countries, of course, have been sanctioned by the us in the west. yeah. they're looking for alternatives . on the other hand, they don't want to completely divorce themselves from the west. yes. and they're being cautious. it's a very delicate don and see if they like it. absolutely. yeah. so i, i can name a few countries. yeah. saudi arabia for example. yeah. be okay. did it, is it is, it is cautious and it has very close military ties with united states when once

right? that's right. and it is a lynch pin of the us military security, a system in the middle east, which just seems to be fading a little bit. yeah, it does, doesn't it? yes, it really reached out. on the other hand, there's trade and there's, there's the, the western influence is and that, that the, these countries are not quite prepared to completely separate. they don't have to severance. they can, they can maintain both. yeah, i think india, for example, this is an example. yeah. they can, they can have a, a foot and bolt the most can let me be thinking that this is about inclusivity. yeah, i mean there's no point of any kind of isolation to be being pushed over. you know his pollutant saying the brakes is not against the west, right. but then there's america, this often says, hey, if you don't with us, you're getting stuff. this is, this is a rhetoric of policy that i guess it's not just outdated, but it's being pushed through the site. now this is the struggle of the united states to try to retain and maintain it's a gemini and it's unit fuller,

world leadership tenants quickly. fading, they see it before they're very eyes and they don't know how to grapple with it. yeah. and, and they're seeing these other countries now that as you say, constitutes more than half the, the g d p, the g 7 and, and the other countries. that's right, the relation of the world. yeah, yeah. and it's going to grow and it's going to create conflicts because inevitably, and i think that's why bricks is going to be cautious in terms of how many members join at any given time. yeah, i know is similarly, but it's, it's, it's primarily an economic dimension. they are, but also a political dimension that they've got to put, you know, you talk about an economic dimension here and, and, and i talked about this earlier, you know, sanctions, yeah, that is, you know, it's almost like there's a narrative to essentially sanctions, all the sacred punishment to a country the doing the wrong thing. what actually, i believe sanctions really ought to protect the western multinational conglomerates

and the multinational global this and this kind of thing. they don't know what, what, what's your view on it? it's to keep these other countries down and to, and make them conform to western, and particularly us policy or else. and that's, we've seen that with russia, china, iran, a turkey c. okay. and in most, actually, most of the, most of the e u countries and their companies we've, we've sanctioned everybody together all sick of it. it's this that's, it's been over used. it used to be used very sparingly now. it's become a we have weaponized, the economies, and people would need an alternative is the is there any blame michael that needs to be apportioned one way or the other? because perhaps so maybe i'm just being opinionated here. but perhaps if certain g 7 countries had been more fostering and more, more open arms and more embracing to the global south on, on the brakes that then thing thing, things could be different, but it's almost like that bad attitude towards the brakes has basically enabled the

brakes to coagulating more members and then grow what part of the problem that you're talking about? a lot of countries we're talking about a global global south countries right there. they're still stinging from colonial as, as yes, old go get it. the old ghosts are coming back. we're seeing it in africa, today's etc. country. yeah. that that's why the china rush hour heavy more influence in those regions. and so consequently i, you take france for example, if, even if they tried, i think it would be very difficult for them to try to cost. in fact, they were there, they got kicked out, they got kicked out the hell reading through it off with his boss right belt that goes across as far as i know, the african, it's right. it's so rich and minimal resources. full, easiest form, a colonial power for us to be getting it to your radium from rad. because fronts to nuclear power, the country. right. but it's passing that you mentioned, you know, need yeah. the 14 of oh oh, that's showing interest in bricks. yeah. they kicked out the french, they picked out the germans, came to us and they picking out the american, the john ki gerhart. my story, written on the,

on the incident was supposed to be excellent knowing as a colonial country. but because we were a colony at one time, told me to tell me this. so tell me this. germany on fronts and these other former colorado guys they, they, yep, they both set because they have troops in these regions. and they said we are fighting terrorists, the locals, if you speak to the local. so local site, that's not even true at all. that's like a hollywood script. any comment on that? there are some terrorist elements, right? you have all kinds of isis that are trying to link up with local groups. right. uh, ukraine has linked up with them and, and brought on the consternation of these countries and the rulers as a consequence. yeah. and, and they have, they killed a number of russians. wagner, russians. that's right. wagner group, that's right recently. so there's some element of that, but it was primarily to maintain influence and in, in these regions in these countries. what a change. yeah. yeah. yeah. so i think you're this and you know when it comes to, why was it the african summit into petersburg last year? yeah. and, and the one just the real feeling i go from all the different lead is i,

i spoke to, they were like, we have momentum. we have a real energy here. we're moving forward with breaking the shackles because the old ghosts are still that's green green. it's fred, this is why you know, this is why bricks is opening his arms to the global south. and for example, the s c o the i see on the see all these different parts of the global community. but just briefly and i, it's not my opinion. i did hear someone talking about this. what 1944 was it? the preston woods which essentially submit to the american dollar at the global reserve currency. right. so some people say that the us dollar is essentially dying in real time. now, i don't know if i looked at the, the us thought is still the globe rose up currency. it's still use worldwide. it's still the majority of misconduct and has admitted that he has admitted that, but the problem is the dollar has lost 99 percent of its purchasing power. so how do we get here, michael? well, it's been through a very poor policy and, and,

and also our political activities are our military. it's a gemini from vietnam on the under nixon. we switched off the gold standard. yep. and the, and even though it out of the bretton woods, the, the, the dollar has become the word has been the world currency. i don't see it fading over night. yeah. absolutely agree. yeah. it's gonna, it's gonna take time. yeah. however, the more countries want to get off the dollar, they're going to be increasing. that's why we're seeing a new mechanism now being developed here under bricks, it's gonna take a while to develop that. and countries can, these countries can use both of those. yeah, yeah, it's going to be it's good. it's gonna take a while. i think of a if trump were to come on board, go and tell me this. ok, if truck were to come on board i i'm hearing through the grapevine. but he would like to go back to the gold standard. now why that's so interesting, go on. why?

because he sees the need to have a response to bricks. the he just talked about wanting to be involved with bricks. but to do that, the dollar needs to be back with tangible. so that means roles. yeah, he's got to be looking to acquire more gold as, as a, as a back up the currency because right now it's of almost all fields. secondly. yeah . if we go back to energy independence, then we re gain our, our oil and gas independence. and that thing competes with the opec. yes. yeah, exactly. so that increases us. uh, do you think, do you think americans still has all those thousands of tons of goals that it says it has? i mean, let's just just quickly bear in mind the us sponsored might on to in key of all those years ago, people, there were stories about cause in the middle of the night, taking gold balls out of key and we give them the westwards. when moving market, that fee and libya was deposed by nato and his friends and all of that, one of the 1st that they did was steal his gold. so to the american,

still habits gold or maybe as go to some other one people's goal. it's got, it's got gold, but it also it can, it must to acquire more. but i hear that there's some potential 6200 tons. yeah. out there that it can still acquire and that's what i see is going to be the, the initiative to try and get that back into the us. yes, i mean that might be one way to say put on a, put it not only the slaves, a dollar, but remained competitive and it can then be used by trump to say, look, you guys can go join bricks and be part of bricks. but in order to, in order to retain favor with us and, and continued and to stay on the dollar, we're showing you, we're back. we have it now backed by gold. yeah, it is going to be and it'll be an incentive to stay on the dollar. yeah. as a, as a reserve currency, as opposed to going to the individual currencies that brooks is now doing. so there's going to be some economic competition. if trump comes it's yep. harris comes in. you're going to see the same. oh, same oh, yeah. yeah. and the interesting thing i just wanted to comment based upon your

previous guess, put, and it has a strategic vision, what he's pulled, what he's done here is incredible. just to show number one, rush, i have friends, you know, and, and it's not isolated, but also to show that when you compare to it, to a harris, there she's, she has no strategic vision at all. she never could have put anything like this together. sure. and i'm really concerned about what, what part if she wins the presidency, what happens with it in, in the various hotspots that we have now? and how is she going then compete with the, you know, i am sorry to say this mike, but you know, come on a, gets into the white house. me. i mean, we're talking mary annette with strings. she's just like, she's going to go this way. she's going to go, she's going to do what she was told, but the people pulling the strings don't know what to do either because there's no strategic vision. incredible that, that is a challenge and that is part of the reason why we are here. that is that right, that is right right. 2020 for conference here and cause on the multi point of world . and by the way, $159.00 countries,

more than 80 percent of the world has already shown interest in joining the bricks . bridge payment system, yes. which of course is the other side of the, of a swift sales rep. so this is very, very like the world is changing before our in, in, in, in our lifetime at a front row seats make it so you're going to put on that. so literally, yeah, you do buy company form a senior policy on this. it depends on thank you very much for your time and thank you. thank you. i thanks for joining us here for us federal coverage from the bricks. summit 2024 here life and the heart of cuz on the good news is it's hard to be just beginning. that's so much more coming your way and we will be with you every step of it. that's low latest, continue arriving here. special coverage continues as well live from cuz on the 1st 2024. this is the international news

use blankets they didn't sell for smoke from artillery strikes. as we follow in the footsteps of rushes and farms. tell me please, where is it now? how far are you crying in for the world? so well, we are leaving the city and if we go to the right, then there are 2 kilometers on the right side of the landfill. right now we are advancing the front line. there are 4 kilometers behind us. now there are tillery is flying. we are also striking back in response. so the russian armed forces, they were moving in from that direction, heading that way. here the ukrainians had 2 major strongholds, one over here in the building, in the headquarters of the local milledgeville administration. and another one in the garage is over there. this ukrainian soldier was unlucky enough to get gun down as he was crossing this short distance from one spot to the other. the distance of

about a 100 meters. it's not just bodies that the ukranian army has left behind the key of troops, chiseled the firing ports, straight into the walls of apartment below buildings. soon the rushing out because they had to rush this fios to get installed by the prayers. and here in the, one of the buildings directly facing the remains of ukrainian farm position, the machine gun this machine gun division over the left behind on here. this is, this is also not run up. i mean this chair and this chair because this is where the machine, the one slipped and he would force his machine gun on this

chair for facing that way. those who sat on the some chair who slept in these beds will never work again. even some of the most insidious methods failed ukrainian forces. he is that some of the us no, well the remains of left behind by the ukrainians as they were fleeing the town who cranes these uh engine personal lines which are conventionally bound by the way. but here they already prepared for using smooth clusters. these are the same lines that ukrainian missile spewed over the cities like the next, who was in mass, a recent casualties amongst civilians. the rest of these mines are ready for use, and this is a gas grenade on the other ukrainian flags here have been swamped, full battle band as a russian brigades, a russian officer. he's scratching off

a glory to u. a. s. scribbling on the wall as booms full. this is the beginning of the rough, finishes every liberate to don't pass town. starts with on the long road to a mighty opal style make over. how much was done of reporting from ok and t. but that's 10 to the middle. the snow is riley has been intensifying its strength on lab and on at least 4 people, including a child being killed and moving 20 wounded in the latest attacks us. according to local health officials, the army reportedly hit the lebanese capital on that stuff, that's at least a dozen times they've benoit, the ideas claims it's targeting facilities linked to has been

a lot. and it says that this gaping warnings pacific means to evacuate. the deadly strikes the clues the patients policies hit in the facility of hospitals. another one struck close to an area near phasing to add to the only international effort still setting nothing on and which of course has become a vital hub for humanitarian aid ortiz, steve sweeney. reports this is evidence roughly called, or the international apple. behind me, you can see here the southern suburb of favorites subjected to intense is waiting on baldwin. this is avoiding offer and i so particularly incense as strikes. you can still see the smoke billowing from buildings in the background. the apple remains the vital hop for international aid. here we can see the lights as consignment from china, which left this morning arriving in favors around the big day is full of medical. i

across the city to us envoys 11 an amos hosting met with complementary speaking. that'd be barry with washington came to agree a c 5 before november's presidential election. but there is little optimism among the lebanese people living in stands by support for the implementation of un resolution 71 and the sci fi. it says that it was a lack of will from is well, while washington is conditioned for an agreement, including the appointments of a president, see the opposing sides, ppos appalling phone lines. and now on thursday's meeting in paris, whether u. n. a u and other international representative will discuss the companies you money saving needs. i made the ongoing is radio question. for now, as well as forming of lebanon continues, with no end inside. this is steve, so we need for all to invite for that. so we've got time for this out, but we're going to take a brief break. and then of course, at the top of the next one will be back without special coverage at all. the break

why are weapons from ukraine spreading over the world? to turn this country into a major arms hub, will continue to bolster ukraine's and forces by rushing them a capabilities that they need to defend their country. the everyone knows very well and if we don't sell been known as pineapples or any kind of children's toys, we sell women's. yes, we're also known in the world is almost dealers that we must not be ashamed of them . the, the, the

take a fresh look around there's a life kaleidoscopic, isn't just a shifted reality distortion by tell us to do vision with no real opinions. fixtures designed to simplify will confuse really once a better wills, and is it just as a chosen for you. fractured images, presented as fast. can you see through their illusion going underground? can the,

the, the,

the brick by brick forgive the, upon a new wild is a marching right here on the side lines of the 16th brick summit. we have got a front row seat. if you told me a bit later on your shower with may 12th and dusting special coverage while throughout the morning. well be this have been sending the steps of the jets off the line to cause and international airport. the chinese lead the indian, if you can, probably minutes of the south african president, largest among you who are getting room russian embraces in city was off of to touching down well as the summit of hers flooded. med. pearson has already held tools with the indian prime minister, now run to a moody 1st lead us emphasized the co operation between the nations.
