the, the one week after the syrian governments collab multiple forces attempted to move their interest forwards in the war torn countries. look at all the hands grasping for pieces of the pie. this up for you in parliament and pages president used to fuel following his short lived martial law action opposition leaders are pushing for the now suspended leader to face further consequences crush. i continues to gain ground and ukraine as tries to prevent further installation by using long range the rest, the weapons, and the incoming president, trump argues whether these weapons should have been sense in the 1st place. and a former open, a employee allegedly committed suicide after publicly accusing the company of

violating copyright law the your watching archie international. i'm rachel ruble live in moscow. syria's future hangs in the balance after terrace groups took control of damascus one week ago, various militant groups. now controlled the countries fractured territory. well, let's take a closer look at the various factions, vine 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 courtesy insurgent group in the east. well, that says turkish fact militants have taken over the city of man bridge. all of the green is controlled by the h t. s. terrace. and in syria's south west israel has launched a ground operation moving further in on the golan heights. meanwhile, in jordan washington and entre set in on a meeting of top,

diplomats from the arab league, most serious future prospects. the ground to the agenda, no representatives from damascus were invited to the tox. us secretary of state anthony blank and responded to speaking privately with the turkish foreign minister on gross top diplomat reaffirmed his country's priority to fight british militant groups in syria. j. t for the last time use has been taken advantage of the caustic and why the money in syria. so they being disguising themselves within the ranks of s b s. and we have to take them out of so we have to fight against terrorism wherever they are. meanwhile, in damascus, the service flag has been raised over the countries embassy signaling the reopening of encore as diplomatic mission for the 1st time in a dozen years. it is the 1st conflict to resume operations since the fall of assad . well, turkey support some of the syrian out positions. factions that was to the saw that

considers the us back to curtis militias to be terrorist. the secretary of state, we are from the washington support of the groups despite anchor as a position on museum for we have the the. ready ending the church vices. be sure that so i just was in a box a dock and this one for the role in pursuing that, which is you know i the the s d f is not the only party and getting us support. it also has the back of hyatt to where all shaw militants that have seized control of damascus. and most of the territory of following the power grab us secretary of state and and they blanket,

declared washington support for the paramilitary group. various factions are now racing to stake, a claim on valuable lands, adding to the chaos and uncertainty in, in bottle of 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 era countries. guitar rock and saudi arabia have condemned the move, calling it, and re violation of international law. and a dangerous development. however, the as rarely prime minister benjamin netanyahu in says the golan heights will forever remain within his country's 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 to go in heights will forever be an inseparable part of the state of israel. the un special envoy for as serious as the idea is in breach of international law. but this operation and goal on heights has added that israel must stop it's strikes on syrian territory, is very troubling development. as we are continuing to see, is there a movements and bombardments into serial territory? this needs to stop extremely important. that remote don't see any action from in the international factory that destroys the possibility for this transformation is here to take place. the peacekeepers on the on highest articles

in daily, con, contact, vend videos. right. and is, of course, the message from, from new york is this is the same that what you're seeing is a violation of this and judgment agreement in 1974. washington however is defending as well. so i can patient of the syrian gall on heights once again, siding its allies right to defend itself with respect to syria. what is real is doing is trying to identify potential threats, both conventional and weapons of mass destruction that could threaten israel, and frankly threatened others as well and neutralize those threats. that is part of its effort to protect the country in the midst of a very fluid situation. while the western media has been down, playing the as rarely invasion of syria in line with washington's official talking fines, the trail has been in stark contrast to how the mainstream news covered russia's

military campaign and ukraine. we 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 the, the most ridiculous example of it that i think it's hard for even the most jaded victims of american propaganda not to notice. it's really, really uh, 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, they come out against it to me and the most hilarious part is the israel helped to

bring the security labs 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 t a and then and then complains later that, you know, there was a bad government next door. but that's what israel is doing right now. the south korean parliament and page president used to deal on saturday. he has now been suspended from office with over 2 thirds of the national assembly building against him. ortiz, i mean the issue or has the story as a visual south 3 as us. the fuel has been in paced after his 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 all is 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 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 bludgeoned to stay in power total. 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. 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. right. so what led to this political earthquake? earlier this month, you want to impose 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 grew 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 he 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 pyongyang. 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. the 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. was 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 among citizens who over the past week, russian forces have taken control of 7 towns in the don't ask region. the russian

defense ministry has reported 87 that ukrainian soldiers have surrendered to russian troops who have re taken control of 3 settlements in the course can reach them and they hung gary and prime minister has been using it's e u. presidency rotation to urge members to hold peace talks. well, a crane 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 that 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. the budapest appeals to have intensified menu credit in strikes and the russians to the of tagging rock using us supplied at long range missiles. the attacker's hidden military targets an

industrial facility, and the several houses rush. i responded with massive showing on ukraine's energy and infrastructure. meanwhile, in an interview with time magazine, donald trump called cabs decision to strike, defend the rush of foolish and the major escalation. yeah, going by and administration had approved to the move. 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. whereas the lensky has decided with the approval of, i assume the president to start shooting missiles into russia. i think that's the major escalation. i think it's a full is decision for me or us defense department contract or kevin, make a lead. c says trump is advocating for europe to step up and bear more of the burden. he suggested sending european troops to ukraine, which crosses a red line for russia. ukraine isn't doing well on the battle field

and by the united states, allowing them to straighten deeper into russia. the. they are ignoring the warnings that russia gave them with the rush neck muscle. the other objective of the special military operation was demilitarization and no nato and trump is said on both of those points. you know, let's put european troops in to run along a border region to keep the parties a part. and, you know, and then maybe in 10 years the, what you create into nato. so these are all non starters for russia. and since rush it has the upper hand, russia has no reason to negotiate on these points. a newly released police report has ruled the death of a former open a i employee

a suicide suits your bellagio. you who play the key role in developing a chat, g b t model was found dead in his san francisco apartment and late november the only research i had criticized the tech giant for breaching copyright laws. adding to the accusations and legal cases against open the eyes working practices are to contribute. our customs has more on the case. he was concerned as a reset should because he was off to scrape a lot of information of the incident. and i see the sort of built into this. he was in the next, but he's, i see where it says i'm not a lawyer box. and he found that that was infringing on so many different particularly us copyright laws and decided eventually to blow the whistle on this. and, you know, and really wanted to be able to double standards of how a lot of the silicon valley companies cannot operate really above the law that actually got a little slip way actually reveals what, what a young coverage i was at open a guy for nearly 4 years and worked on chat g p t for the last one and

a half of them. i initially didn't know much about copyright fair use, etc. but became curious after seeing all the lawsuits filed against gen a i companies. when i tried to understand the issue better, i eventually came to the conclusion that fair use that seems like a pretty implausible defense for a lot of generative ai products for the basic reason that they can create substitutes that compete with the data they're trained on. obviously i'm not a lawyer, but i still feel like it's important for even non lawyers to understand the law, both the letter of it and also why it's actually there in the 1st place. you know, he was really making a about a point with kind of getting into this world with a i either must, obviously the fight was either must move on does and as a founder of life, now i would, she was one of the 1st investors wound us with the dangers this technology, especially what he says, which i think is really interesting. rachel, about how this comes to how this a system can essentially start revising its own history. it's kind of like that will smith movie. all right. but if you that right. yeah. and one of my favorite

movies, i gather so many unknowns here, christy, the use of a i, it is a really hot button subject, but is copyright infringement, the real main concern or what, what do we know about the use of a i in the defense industry in the us you have, you know, silicon valley just so people have spent a little time working, working within that environment. you have a lot of defense defense funding. within that, i mean the big one of the biggest major capital funds in, in silicon valley, people unaware, has a company going into tell, would you like to move on and operated by the c i openly. and then you have to may just sort of private companies that get a lot of defense contracts. one is comfortable problems here, which is owned by the is miss pete the t let's people aren't aware about who he is . he's a bit of a adult figure. these days, but he was actually the co founder of people with eagle musket, the beginning would you believe and, and then you've got a lot of other sort of lights from the state of can valley wealth and there's a new company we tiny, we discover today, one good, i'm the real, let's take a look actually that there's been a, a very interesting announcement that was just posted on the x from,

from that company together. the systems developed by palin tier and andrew unlocked the full potential of defense data, turning it into actionable intelligence and then it's jen capabilities. this partnership also enables collaboration with leading a developers, including open a i by connecting the tactical edge, secure cloud infrastructure, and cutting edge models. we're building the complete solution for operationalizing, a. developing a i for national security requires a committed group of innovative partners to ensure the us and our allies stay at the forefront of advanced technology. that's the vision we're building together. so i think it's quite scary. one less saying really about how they're taking this technology built really on that foundation of chapter p t full, which is exactly what the velocity was working on. and using that net a quite a, what potentially nefarious way. so media reports on the last it's against open a, i claim them the largest name appeared on court documents just days before he died

. unfortunately, he was in possession of some unique documents. what are the chances that philosophy will still be brought up in the trial? yeah, rachel again, will have to see what happens. and number one, i think there's, there's probably 2 things to, to look at. number one, did he give those documents to his legal counsel kinda use that time, that his attorney is willing and able to actually represent that information in court. again, there's always that issue kind of ironic, right? but in a court of law, it's always better to have human testimony than then arrival, or that all i bought for doing that. so will that use it? and, and, and the 2nd part is this is actually relating to a, a suit brought by the new york times, all the new york times, just going to back off uh off to this. oh, are they going to keep the shipping? it will have to wait and say, yeah, and considering the historic prosecution to whistle blowers in the us, what suspicions does this case rate? oh my, what i've spent this morning looking at this right. so, you know, it's like you get on the well x, what twits its various, you used to cool that and you goes to the even got, you know, must sort of sentencing it something again,

i think this brings us back to sort of the boeing thing that we went through recently a lot of lesser with the buyers, obviously just sag full directly with the speculation. we don't have any evidence of this, but it is kind of ironic how a little strange that that this keeps happening. where whistle blowers seems, is sort of probably the way so, and then just the full court proceedings, thoughts, or during these proceedings that they seem to sort of drop off the face of the, quite literally to open a claim is it used as publicly available data to train as models. we spoke with michael wrecked involved from our new york university professor, an officer of google archipelago. he said, the suicide case appears very suspicious. given the perilous history of whistle blowers. i mean, given the sight of previous whistle blowers in the united states and elsewhere, i am suspicious of this apparent suicide. it reminds me of the suicide of a seth rich and other similar whistle blowers who

were about to come out with damning information. and then they suddenly disappear. it's going to be hard to protect people that whistle blow against companies because that those companies that they're serving, like in the case of this, he would have been serving the companies whose intellectual property is being violated. so to speak, that they wouldn't have to get a, you would have to get some sort of private protection from some company or other. there is some indication that the, what is happening is they're violating intellectual property law. because of they are sourcing materials and using probably direct statements from said materials and let at length without a citation or against intellectual property fair use.

the high ranking officials from 18 nations gathered in to ron last sunday to discuss cooperation and sustainability measures for regional gas supplies. they issued a joint statement, noting the spirit of solidarity among participants. ortiz yourself, so all a reports from the meeting delegates from gas rich nations around the world are entered wrong for the $26.00 ministerial meeting of the gas exporting countries for us or g. c. f. the forum has brought under one roof energy ministers and representatives from key players such as russia, guitar, nigeria, among others together holding about 70 percent of the world's gas reserves at 44 percent of the global marketed natural gas production. the g. c. f has an immense digit fast and its mission to jump to natural gas as a cornerstone of sustainable development, a driver of energy and switch security, and part of the solution to achieve sustainable development goals. the form is held

against the backdrop of fluctuating global gas prices, particularly stemming from the rising geopolitical tensions, including the ongoing conflict and ukraine and tensions in the middle east. that one g prices in europe and asia are now caught in a volatile tug of war with markets bracing for potential shocks. as you political strife, we shapes the energy landscape. this volatility raises questions about the energy security, which is the main focus of the g. c. f. 2010 is how bypassed the dogs. such threats intentions not only influence the stability of the region, but post significant risks to global energy security. it will disrupt supply chains and endanger the accessability and reliability of vital energy resources for the international community enrollment spending. one otherwise, inc, escalation in the middle east, is to blame for the latest option downs and l n. g prices. the ukraine war is 2 major factor with you are trying to reduce this dependence on russian gas and diversified suppliers. while the us has tried its best to fuel this gap, interesting, we, some of the new players in europe are g, c, f members,

including guitar. however, experts say replacing brushes, longstanding footprint in europe. it must be a walk in the park, political issue as accidental as you have the impact on the energy price. what i think is the world, the responsibility on the g. c is i think, think about the mark, disability, tulsa whole. think of the same as a mission. and we already lock key. member of the old, dcf cute on, and also rochelle, have a in folder room in the g, c, f, and also a big loss. the guess exporting countries for him was 1st proposed by you want in the late 19 ninety's, when the country advocated for a platform that would allow gas exporting countries to collaborate and coordinate their policies. the g. c. f was beneficial, established in 2001 that is counting members included, they want russia to tar, among other gas producing nations. today the forum includes 12 permanent members and 20 observer members. as

a founding member of the gc of i'm the host of visit gatherings, the one has called on, which was surprised to transform into an energy house in the region with the 2nd largest gas reserve. and it was and it's considered location. it does have immense potentials in the energy sector and over the country seat support from the g. c. f to some significant cost of electric. on top of them are the western sanctions, the dirt, the ones vs expense and production of charlie shaw you my we have device solutions for the challenges and limitations imposed by the harsh sanctions on our oil and energy sectors. we have not been passive in response to these constraints, but what's more important is that the presence of the as lumnick, republican as the holder of the world's 2nd largest gas reserves in entities such as the g e. c, f demonstrates to the world that we are a significant player capable of influence in global energy industry decisions effectively. man, who showed it to him, what he has told me that you don't. it's not the sanctions alone that impacted long

as gas sector inefficiencies in energy use, as also contributor to the ongoing gas crisis. iranians consumed gas equates up to 6 times higher than the global average. to tackle this crisis, your one has caught back on gas exports to iraq and circuit and has made a guess swap the ellipse took me to stand, just applying its northern regions. however, a new savior has emerged. russia even outside of the g. c, a framework to one and moscow have team to up to support each other during the tough times of western pressure. united by the share challenge of western sanctions . the one in russian have also signed a $40000000000.00 deal to wrap up oil and gas production and that upgrading it was huge. energy feels on top of that brush. i will share its technology to give it was gas sector, a boost. experts believe this partnership should extend to other members of the g. c. f hoping to build this fund or network that supports member countries, regardless of their political views and reduces the impact of western influence. i believe that energy should not be. i've seen the impact by the

policy as something like that because they want to help to people who want to help to consumers. we want to help ward and the global academic any disturb to them in the supply chain theories impact on the economy of that. i think supports an impact on the people, the gas exploding countries for a may have a limited ability to act as a shower balance to western sanctions. as many of its members, states have economic ties to the west over as it is working up to a multi point order ex 1st year. believe all member states on are the primary goal of the g. c, f. as a non political entity, then it can affect to be safe guard energy security, and the face of geopolitical challenges, usability, r t. all right, well just say with us here on our to international. i'll be back with much more news and just over half an hour's time,

i'll see you then by the the the

altima 2023. a surprise attack the lowest against israel by showing the world the no one had expected the palestinian run. the goal is to have so many cutting edge weapons in the aftermath of the attack militants openly and making a thing for us. for the rockets and missiles that rain down on these rays, this is the see the silver, the somebody. how can it be that um the ship to the middle east from a country whose top officials constantly complain about shortages of, of munitions and military equipment anyway, blueprint, blueprint bus locally stem with us and e u military,

a totals tens of millions of dollars will continue to show the power of partnership will continue to bolster ukraine's and forces by rushing them occasionally use that they need to defend their country. but where does this stage really go? and who decided to, um, a country that was being one of the biggest supermarkets of some of the weapons for almost 2 years. the estimated one most of the.
