i'm steelers, we must not be ashamed of that. the one week after the syrian government, the co ops, multiple forces attempt to move their interest. ford and the war torn country looked at all the hands grasping for pieces of the pi south ran parliament and page as president used to kill. following his short lived martial law, action opposition leaders are pushing for the now suspended later to face the further consequences as russia continues to gain ground. a new crane here try to prevent further escalation by using long range of us weapons. incoming president from argues whether these weapons should have been sense in the 1st place. and as the georgia enrolling parties nominee is elected president, the country is incumbent pro western head of state rejects the results and refuses

to step down. the lawmakers urged sanctions and lamb to process and the police the ahead of the box, the live from our headquarters in moscow. you're watching r t international. i'm rachel ruble. serious future hangs in the balance after terrace groups took control of damascus. one week ago, various militant groups now control the countries fractured territory. let's take a closer look at the various factions vying for power. now these yellow areas here in the north are held by the us back to s d f, which is allegedly linked to a kurdish and surgeon group in the east. well, that's as turkish fact militants have taken over the city of man bitch. now all of the green is controlled by the h chest terrace, and in serious south west israel has launched a ground operation moving further in on the golan heights. meanwhile, in jordan,

washington and encore, a set in on a meeting of top, diplomats from the arab league, most serious future prospects crowned to the agenda. no representatives from damascus were invited to the tox, us secretary of state. antony, blinking with spotted speaking privately with the turkish foreign minister. across the top. diplomat reaffirmed his country's priority to fight kurdish militant groups in syria to take a for the laws. and use has been taking advantage of the contract and why them in syria. so they being disguising themselves within the ranks of s p. s. and we have to take the motto, so we have to fight against terrorism. what? meanwhile, in damascus, the circus flag has been raised over the country, is embassy signaling, the reopening of bunker as diplomatic mission for the 1st time and a dozen years. it is the 1st consulate to resume operations since the fall,

and besides, well turkey as supports some of the syrian opposition factions that ousted aside it considers the us back. curtis militias to be terrorist us secretary of state, re affirmed washington, support of the group. the spies on 1st position on the as the 1st we have the the. ready ending the church of vices. be sure that's um isis was in a bond state or the and the yeah, that's fine for the role in pursuing that, which is great too no to the staff is not the only party getting us support and also it has the back of hyatt to we are also on militants that have seized control of damascus and most of the territory. following the power grab us secretary of

state, antony blinking, declared washington's support for the power military group. various functions on our racing to stake a claim on viable lands adding to the k us and uncertainty in, in bottled syria. well, at the same time, in the south of the country, idea of troops have crossed into a un buffer zone, taking up positions previously controlled by syrian soldiers arab countries. guitar rock and saudi arabia have condemned the move, calling it a grave, violation of international law. and a dangerous development. however, the is rarely prime minister benjamin netanyahu in says the goal on high school forever remain with, in his countries control. but that appears to put him at odds with israel's main ally, the us. this is a temporary accident they have taken. we support all sides of holding the 1974 disengagement agreement. we all understand the great importance of our presence there. i talked to golden heights,

not at their foot. now what we want to see ultimately is the um, that agreement fully up upheld. and we'll watch to see that as well does that our control and authority over the golan heights, ensures our own security. israel has said that these actions are temporary to defend its borders. these are not permanent actions. the golan heights will forever be an inseparable part of the state of israel. or the western media has been down playing the is really invasion of syria in line with washington's official talking points. the portrayal has been in stark contrast to how the mainstream news cupboard rushes military campaign and ukraine always spoke with ted rall, co host of the final countdown talk show. he says the west double standards are no surprise. the inconsistency in the policy are glaring and they've been in the past. i think it was easy for western audiences to miss it, but it's gotten so over the top in recent years. and this really just is this of

the most ridiculous example of it that i think it's hard for even the most jaded victims. i'm encouraging propaganda not to notice it. it's really, really over the top, basically the united states will basically run interference for israel no matter what it does. and windows actions go above and beyond what american adversaries would do in similar such a situation. or even in a more justifiable situation. they come out against it to me in the most hilarious part is the israel helped to bring that security lab upon itself because we did so much to weaken the aside regime. i mean, it's not like russia, you know, installed to be of the crew and 2014 n p a and then and then complained later that, you know, there was a bad government next door. but that's what israel is doing right now. in the south korean parliament and page to president used to go on saturday. he has now been

suspended from office with over 2 thirds of the national assembly voting against him. or these amendment shaw has the story. the official cell 3 a 0 is the appeal has been in paste after he's failed. attempt that declaring martial law with parliament casting 204 votes in favor and a 5 against his ouster made on the suspension of the rebellion leader. use suki always just the 1st step in resolving the crisis. we will ensure that the impeachment of human suki all gets approved. we will not use our vigilance plates until a thorough investigation is conducted to uncover the full scope of the incident and those involved and those responsible are punished. but it did not go down and that a fight initially pledging to stay in power toner. and you may pause for a moment now, but the journey toward the future, which i have walked with the people over the past 2 and a half years, must never come to a halt. dreadful,

i will never give up holding in my heart all the criticism, encouragement, and support directed me. i will do my best for the country until the very last moment. but what led to this political earthquake earlier this month, you and imposed martial law to protect the country from what he called supporters of the democratic people's republic of korea. accusing the opposition of sympathizing with the countries nor their neighbor. 6 long hours later, his order was lifted following a parliamentary vote as calls for use impeachment grew louder. the declaration of martial law was the 1st and 45 years of democratic rule in the country, provoking a strong response from the public. his unpopularity go along with the sentiment that his decision endangered citizens lives by provoking the dpr k. but not all spelled the same after the impeachment. conservative supporters took through the streets, accusing the rolling party of between noon and calling for his return to office.

but here's where it gets interesting. reports claim that under his command, a drones were sent across the location line to provoke of crisis and create a pretext for martial law. after verification, we have confirmed that a south korean drone was indeed sent to p on yang. the defense counter intelligence command appears to have planned a drone dispatch, while some lawmakers also claim that south korean special forces were involved in or this trade in the crisis. there are people in that unit who disguise themselves as north korean agents and north korean soldiers. i think they were used as agents who create a pretext by disguising themselves as north korean soldiers causing terrorism and then fleeing, claiming that north korea invaded the south or that spies did it. military officials themselves are now claiming the now impeach president may have plunged the country into political turmoil for his own interest. when aust,

did you know that they were going to hit the drones or the prisoners in north korea? special forces come on the clock jungling said i understood that they were going to hit them, implying that he assumed a northwind situation would be created. this decision to declare martial law lead south korea to its biggest upheaval in decades. so it's little wonder that his removal from office sparks celebrations amongst citizens. over the past week, russian forces have taken control of 7 towns in the dentist square public. the russian defense ministry has reported the 87 ukrainian soldiers have surrendered to russian troops. re taken control of it. 3 settlements in the coast region and the hungarian prime minister has been urging the you to hold peace talks during his presidency rotation while you praying has rejected those efforts. at the end of the hung, gary and e u presidency,

we made new efforts for peace. we propose the christmas cease fire and a large scale prisoner exchange. it said the president zalinski clearly rejected and ruled this out. today we did what we could, as usual, hungary did not discuss anything with ukraine. during the last 2 weeks, active contacts have continued for a major exchange. before the end of the year. budapest has intensified as appeals after ukrainian troops at the russian city of tag and rock and using us supplied long range missiles, military targets. an industrial facility and several houses were hit by the attack ems especially responded with massive shelling of the cranium energy infrastructure . meanwhile, in an interview with time magazine, donald trump called cabs decision to strike deep into rush, a full list, and the major escalation, you know, going by the end and ministration had approved the move. and i disagree very vehemently with sending missiles, hundreds of miles into russia. why are we doing that?

we're just escalating this war and making it worse. i think the most dangerous thing right now is what's happening. where is the lensky has decided with the approval of, i assume the president's to start shooting missiles into russia. i think that's the major escalation. i think it's a full each decision. i say, you know, who's trying to set the stage where some of the go jason's, the problem is by the administration as they're going out to, doesn't want that. they want to escalate as much as they can to mess up. and if you change the calculations and zalinski is a, you know, aligned with, with 5, and he stays in power. if there's an escalation. and his number one objective i think is almost is to somehow figure out how we can stay in the mix for negotiations and discussions when they come up right now he's being sidelined and increasingly so if he agrees to a ceasefire or any way of reducing the conflict then the, there's less of

a need for him. so i think he's in favor of continually, so it'd be as is by me. and the trump is trying to figure out a way to, to mentor some sort of discussions. i think it's likely that the, you know, both sides are going to have to show some interest in the scaling down the conflict . and i think that's what drums can do 2 months, going to ask russia to do the same while the go. chase uses, you know, comments and go on here. in the meantime. uh, you know, the binding voice is the voice is what the opposite. they want to mess up, negotiated as best they can make them as difficult as they can by escalated now to the republic of georgia, where the ruling party is nominee has been elected president, former man city football army. how a couple of masvie lea received over 2 thirds of those from the countries like troll college, georgias prime minister praised the appointment and said,

incumbent president has no other option, but to step down. as i understand her feelings, suitability will have to leave her post and i can only express my compassion for her. i am confident that the election of mikhail campbell i should be lead to the most important position will make a very important contribution to strengthening georgian statehood and our sovereignty. as well as reducing radicalism and color ization in our country. the election of a new president in georgia, his term is due to stalls on december 29th us already being contested, not just by the protest. this has been out in the streets not for 17 days straight, but also by opposition. members, he in georgia and the pro president to the said she does not recognize the vote today. she does not recognize the parliament indeed, since it was convened office to the elections in october of this year. she took to the constitutional court of georgia complaint, saying that there was elections weren't where you've had that they were rigs. but

the cost be somewhat reject these that the despite the fact that 2 claims have been rejected by george's highest quoted. and that cannot be appealed. she continues to say she will not recognize these elections and she will not leave office when you get to it expires. in the next 2 weeks, in fact, she described events that took place in the panama, behind me on saturday, as being a power d. it's nothing. nobody chose a new one. nothing happened. well, she has a touch of dramatics about her does salumi sort of wish freely. and i say that because you might be able to see the very beautiful christmas news tree behind me. and she described us as being jails earlier because the fence is being erected around it. so i lady perhaps from 2 little bits of the dramatics. indeed on the scenes behind you there are lossy pro tests. we know have been ongoing in georgia for quite some time. it appeared bustling at rather than anything else at the

moment. or what is the situation? what, what are you feeling there after the election to nice been what's being toss device? yeah, that's why i mean, we've seen this huge all the codes the last 17 days. we saw when georgia dream announced that it was putting on the ice the tulips would be your opinion about joining the block until 202800000 people coming out to the st. smoke just increasing but across the country. and we saw knights of violent protests, but really since these 1st few days, we have seen this movement done massively. inside some nights you could say they would be lucky to be a 1000 people out in the streets. and right now what we see is a cool me for people you might be able to have them during minus the, during the police a block out once again. but this is a very small movie compared to what we had seen at the beginning. you may see that some of the purchase is the thing for the full behind us. uh, that's the best sort of way it plays really saying they're unhappy with the new president who is a former professional for paula. as the results came out,

we saw black smoke lifting into the yeah, the protests are limiting. the idea of a comb clave in room when it friends for a new pump and black smoke. so yes, no post has been chosen system, then they were indicating that this new president hasn't been chosen because he caught me chosen because he's somebody that they don't recognize. now interestingly enough, the georgia dream, the ruling policy, has said that the protest sweeping seeing the law 17 days have been focus straightened from the west. and in fact, since 30 percent and $3016.00 out on the streets. no, i don't night to actually be from foreign countries and they have accused the west of trying to straight is something similar to the might into in ukraine 10 years ago. but they say georgia will not go down the same rates. as for the protests, we were able to completely neutralize the violent element. today, the radical opposition no longer has this tool. the only thing left is that about

2000 people usually gather on rest of valley avenue. on the other hand, there are more than $1120000.00 people who support a georgia dream for parties plus the richest and joe's together cannot gather even 2000 people. this is the real situation, which is very good for our country in georgia. the my don failed and will never happen. well, has it failed as the routing parties as well? i think you can look behind me to say that this movement certainly doesn't have the inputs and the push that he did 2 weeks ago. yeah. before the parliamentary elections, it wasn't the results that the e you wanted at lots he and brussels as well as quick the point thought i'd how does that mean any reaction that regard to today using both thought rate, that reaction? yeah. as you said, the use already said that he believes that the election, supplementary elections in october were legitimate, and it's been cooling, consistency for new elections in the country,

supporting those close by the current incumbent president of georgia. now in regards to 2 days election, we understand that the e u is looking to miss some of them. this is a reading coffee in a sanctions this on monday. we don't have the names yet, but we understand that they will be members from the reading policy that will be announced. and that was something that was recommended by european m e p 3 here in the last few days on a fact finding mission and interesting fact finding mission because they spoke only 2 opposition politicians. the protesters, i'm the pro e president and moved from georgia dream. now we have also been hearing from francis a manual not going who is quite close to. so that means we would appreciate the who's born in front raised in brunswick, who's with the french president in the last week. talking to him about the situation in georgia that he has said that the accusations that georgia dream is made about the west interfering is not true. and he says george's past remains

towards the renewal up in a position you does not obliged. europe offers paving the way for equal partnership prosperity and common values. europe does not intimidate, does not use threats. the whole europe does not seek to so chaos. europe does not seek to destabilize or subjugate its neighbors. through war or hybrid means that you does not dictate what national interests are in particular respects the territorial integrity of georgia. i'm to you is wielding power if it lists members of georgia dream audit sanctions on monday. that is exactly what it is. do we know the baltic states have already made sanctions to some members of the ruling policy full reading? so it wouldn't be surprised if we do see those names on monday as we understand the realities. now we are about 2 weeks away from when the presidential office should be doing. would you come in giving to the newly elected president that could be

a pinched point? because the question then is, will that be a constitutional standoff pay in the country in a series? how would you react to that and will do, is mack on says, and respect the solver and interests of georgia. it seems from what we've been hearing, it was for the call science as far hard and brought him off, says the west will continue to find a protest in georgia as long as the country stands up to brussels policies as a template system. but we just, the behind these protests in georgia are exclusively western forces that are unhappy with the fact that georgia is, frankly speaking, challenging the european and western model system. i believe that georgia has its own past. georgia is ready to continue its association and integration with the european union based on its own rules. and this of course, does not suit the west because the west is used to ensuring that all countries it

absorbs follow the policies that brussels approves of it should be noted that soccer sweetly cannot be overlooked. in the context of ukrainian georgian relations, it is well known that prior to the events of 2014, the ukrainian authorities had a rather favorable view of stock. i should be only, they created a somewhat mystical image of him as someone who allegedly made georgia prosperous. although any rational georgian who honestly weighs the pros and cons, would tell you that soccer severely is not just a failure, but a disgrace to the georgian people. he merely destroyed georgia. many georgians refer to the events of 2008, regarding of cause you in south australia. they remember how sockets really treated, the opposition, and it is known how many people went missing during his time and power. because frankly, he was involved in kidnapping people, and they simply disappeared. they recall his connection to the death of george and prime minister is arrived vanya. however, naturally this was never discussed in ukraine. a mythical image of

a fierce fighter for freedom and human rights was created. of course, august really had no relation to either of these aspects. then, as as well known after the revolution and unconstitutional, coo and ukraine. soccer severely fled there because he was no longer needed in georgia. covered 19 is back in the spotlights a mammoth us congressional report has concluded that the virus originated in a lab. the $520.00 page document also accuses badging of a cover up. but as r, t is on us to us, the eval, on an anal explains timing is everything. a mosque sanitize a social distance thing, seemingly endless days of love downs, the distressing memories of the deadly pro, but 19 pandemic from a fresh. many people are still questioning the true origins of the devastating virus. a us congressional subcommittee has released. it's so cold, final report,

b o on china. but that's more to the story that meets the guy. or should we say that's another side to this coin? cove at 19 most likely emerged from a level retreat and we on china. han is home to china is full. most cells research lab, which has a history of conducting gain of function research, do not acquit biosafety levels. well, hon institute a viral, a g research was was sick with a cove of like virus in the full of 2019 months before cove. it 19 was discovered at the wet market in a response to these allegations between has time, the spotlight on washington are doing it to disclose what americans by ops are up to around the world. me, well, you don't to change the us needs to stop politicizing and webinar using origins tracing at once and stop scapegoating others the us should respond as quickly as possible to the international communities. legitimate concerns voluntarily share its data with the world health organization about suspected early cases in the us.

disclose what's going on it for dietrich and us biological labs all over the world and give a responsible explanation to the world. and what is the role of the united states? you may ask. well, the former us cdc director has weighed in, revealing that washington was involved in funding that we had not reset within the state and defense departments on the list of patrons. he also indicated being banned from helping the site officer researches in china realize they had a serious problem despite their obligations on the international health regulations . what was the us role in or? well, i think it was substantial. this is why, you know, when you look at the accountability for china, their accountability is none in the lab work and, and, and the creation, the virus, their accountability is not found in the international sales regulations. after they realized that they had a problem and allowing people like me and cdc to come in and to help them within 48

hours like they were obligated to, based on the training. but the us, we're always substantial. one is a funded, the research was from age the state department, usa id and the defense department. all 4 of those agencies, helpful, and this research selectively, the scientific mastermind behind this research has a guy named ralph barrick at the university of north carolina. and he was very involved in this research i, i think he probably helped create some of the original barrel lines, but i can't prove that. but he was very involved. but they're a mixed messages coming from washington about the true origins of quite a bit. 19 us intelligence agencies have suggested that the content like the gun, when the wires jump from an infected animal to humans. meanwhile, the f. b, i has to lean towards the lab mix theory, but here's the twist. none of these agencies, us any confident and that conclusions. c i a for example reported they said it was

unable to determine whether the virus originated from animals or allowed quite the mystery. a key representative from the house select subcommittee on the corona virus pandemic. also revealed shocking testimony from a whistle blow. oh, it's titled as highly credible syria level c. i a officer according to the wish will blow at the end of its review. 6 of the 7 members of the team believed the intelligence and science was sufficient to make a low confidence assessment. that cobit 19 originated from elaborate tree in. woo, hon. china. the 7th member of the team who also happen to be the most senior, was the loan officer to believe cobit 19 originated through zoo. a. notice the whistle blow as the contends that to come to the eventual public determination of uncertainty. the other 6 members were given a significant monetary incentive to change that position. the agenda clearly

emerging from all these allegations, this the legacy of the content of it is now being freshly weaponized ahead of donald trump's integration. while washington itself is making sure to wash his hands of any possible involvement in the origins of the virus, the kid with more than 7000000 people worldwide, i always spoke with the general director of the russian chinese business part of changes a gong. he says, these claims are washington's attempt to curb beijing's development, what they need to be about in the us, although there are internal contradictions between the 2 parties. they have some things in common, containing china and russia. american bio labs are located around china and russia . even during the special military operation, bio labs were discovered at the front line on the territory of ukraine. i know it is clear to everyone that the us wants to hinder the development of our great powers. although the virus was found in lieu hon. history tells us that the source of something is not always the place where it was found. that is why china

officially called on us to disclose what their bio labs are doing around the world . now the u. s. has decided to play the corona virus card again because they see the chinese economy is a threat. and because the memories of large human and economic losses around the world are still fresh in raising this topic again, especially now is a big signal that with the arrival of the new administration, us will target china and take your right to stay with us here on our to international, i'll be back with much more in just about half an hour. i'll see you then by the, you know, living down here, i see this guy too. okay. i couldn't get the picture of it because uh i,

i didn't pull my my phone out fast enough. time i got my phone. i'll take a picture of this thing i saw on this guy. that's what really tripped me out. this is one of the ships i saw in the sky. so that's what it looked like. it grabs like bravo, sorry. his rebel, grab those. this right here. i saw this and this guy is a useful data pipe line ship. that's what it looked like. this one was coming from the opposite way. it was like a big blow arrested green container. plugging this guy in a week towards that mountain right over there, the one that has a door on top of it. yeah, yeah. you can see the door, you can only see the door when the doors open. yeah. these are one of the phenomenal ones that, that i've seen out here. because i had friends, couple of friends that are witnesses. i talked to him about the said, the solve the same thing that i saw before. so i knew i was seeing things you know, early.
