5:03 pm
together with the brazilian manufacturing bar. and we understand at this given point in the course of the forensic investigation, it's still undergoing it's due process. and we understand that the other major on the side is also interested in bringing in a team of naval experts from around the world to look into the specifics of the acceptance and we understand the present. and also once further detail about the pilots are the crew members on board that flights dumping one heroes more so specifically because of the fact that the pilots tried to land the plane, which resulted of course in some casualties, but did also pay way for some survivors to walk out survivors that i provided, i witness testimony as to what happened on board and, and they have also been laid to rest in the us, the page on the capital along the alley of honor. and they had been honored at the highest possible aspect of the somebody on the government and beat besides that. we also understand that's the other. but johnny presidents have run into specific, suggesting as bad as the situation is that he understands it was an accident and
5:04 pm
there was no deliberate intent against you. i was the vision for because our plane was shot down accidentally. of course, there can be no question of any deliberate terrorist act here, therefore, admitting one's guilt apologizing in time to us or by john, which is considered a friendly country. and announcing this to the public, we're all measures in steps that have to be taken. it's important, very significant to highlight that the russian presidents did reciprocate that call did reach out to the us or b johnny president home in ours, after the statement was made in the early hours of sunday. not to mention that there was a phone call between the 2 on saturday, the russian president reached out to us on page and accounts report on saturday, expressing his sympathies expressing his concerns, but more importantly, expressing a heartfelt apology for what happened on that day. tell us more about moscow stones on this matter. yes. and i was noticed on a friday rushes aviation watched on essentially
5:05 pm
a stepped in and as they elaborated on the developing situation. and we understand that they are currently in a position where they are looking into not just the events of how it happened, but what triggered the events in the 1st place on the general course of action, or at least the popular opinion at this given moments is that the premium factor played a large part that trigger it rushes air defense systems, which resulted in a d as a base, any flights expression landing in octo. and we understand that there was a statement released let's listen to that. we have that time ukrainian drones were launching terrorist attacks on civilian infrastructure in the cities of growth and in flooded cause cause you would you go in this regard. the sky was closed in the area of the growth in the airport at this given moment post crash and that the same page on the side and asian authority issued the statements. it's suggesting that will be spending flights starting saturday to almost a dozen russian cities within that immediate area, particularly citing of the activity of ukrainian and warfare and the use of drones
5:06 pm
and similar weapons within that region. and we understand that the suspension will stay in place until the investigation concludes as to whether that's the investigation on the opposite page on the side, or whether it's the forensic investigation that is currently undertaking by cuz our professionals, as well as the brazilian aircraft manufacturing company, while from one arrow thing class to another charge of the 179, people died when a boeing 737 went down during an emergency landing attempt as a south korean airport. but it was before the clash with is landing. getting not deployed. the pace slid along the runway and collided with a barrier. emergency crude extinguished the flames and initiated the rescue. efforts of the $191.00 passengers on board, only to survive. the on the resume.
5:07 pm
so when we learnt that a family member was on that plane, i was in total shock and my mind went blank. my legs trembled. i felt utterly powerless as the realities think. and that's when the gravity of the situation hit me all at once. my family has gone to identify the body. i couldn't bear to see it . the life it was for the office has called an emergency meeting in response to the dissolved, the initial report supported by ground video for the industry bud strike. as the initial calls of the technical malfunction, we discussed the potential causes with a former vice president and chief scientist ad boss who provided insights into what might have a good a. it really is. the collisions with the birds are next to the boss, to the one to jude, because the new planes were fly at about 10 to 12 to them. it was a height and the full january. this is in the 1st phase, ease on the last phase of the flight. the,
5:08 pm
the biggest problem you know for this is that when the, the engines swallow the brutes because they are, you have the funds of the different the turbines and comprises, and these are 2 for giant to, to resist the short. boeing 737 is design a, goes back to 1967 and you have the part through them all the potential over the photo ocean. and the how we wanted to keep this product with that we, uh, you know, spending some money uh, maybe $10.00 to $15000000.00 to make a new brand new one from scratch. older companies which exploit the fleet. the v tools be the trucks or causal planes. uh facebook. and when do you need to change your feet? uh and uh, this is a problem which has not been rolled out by many, many people right now. and it will say it is ready to select on the some of the
5:09 pm
mosque, this ones killed 17 civilians. the idea of increasing the surface slice on the syrian capital is what it says involves into water and sewer in recent weeks, pushing policy, you and designated buffers a as in one of the folders over through present by shut off of the government in damascus. while top is where the officials have pulled for the i different take the syrian capital, the surgeon group hire, who i've shown, which is sees the city says it does not want a conflict with is out. it also says it was a because of series for additionally close ties with most of the, although the face of the russian movie bases in the country, remains on clear. in russia is the 2nd most powerful country in the world. it is important, syria has strategic interest with russia. we do not want russia to leave in a way that is inconsistent with its relationship with syria. and i'm happy about
5:10 pm
that. i was nice. i don't. the most significant recent event in the syrian arena has been the statements of the leader of the new syrian administration, a model sharah, and the head of syrian intelligence on us cut off. in his statement, a model show us dressed at the new administration, tried to minimize casualties and avoid force displacement making every effort to ensure that the transition of power in syria took place peacefully. he also added that the liberation of syria would insure the security of the region for the next 50 years. in addition, he noted that several political stages must be completed before the presidential election is held and the process of drafting the constitution may take about 3 years of model. shara also expressed hope that the new constitution would be in effect for as long as possible. although this would be a difficult and lengthy task as for the organization of the election, the leader of the new syrian administration said that this process could take up to 4 years since a full population census would be required to hold a fair election. specialized commissions will be set up and voting will be
5:11 pm
conducted within the framework of the national dialogue conference. the leader of the new administration also confirm that the rumors about appointments from only one political group are true as the current situation requires a unified coordinated position. in addition, he said that during the national dialogue, the dissolution of hire to feed all shot would be announced, adding that the un had not been able to release a single prisoner or return at least one refugee regarding the syrian democratic forces. al sharah noted that the syrian defense ministry plans to integrate curtis forces into its ranks. it was also confirmed that there would be no division of syria in any form either in the form of a federation or in any other negotiations are underway with the sds, to resolve the crisis in the northeast of the country. in a sion, the leader of the newest doherty's hopes that the new u. s. administration will not continue the policy of the previous administration. and the trump administration should lift the sanctions against syria. as for russia to emphasize that syria does not want russia to leave the country in
5:12 pm
a way that would not correspond to the nature of their relationship, syria has strategic interest in relation to russia, which is the 2nd most powerful country in the world, and plays a significant role in the international arena. whereas empowers who is have their own curves and syria wanted to read the country of most of the invalids, but singularly emergency basis. the uniform policy issue says the russian issue will be addressed as soon as defined so far. these as soon as possible, but there have been others in the west, especially in germany, who warm the instability in syria will own new product, another influx refugees into europe. this is the longest ignites if this is the same strategy as in libya, i've gotten a strong and rob and they want regime change because a ruler strategically does not do what the united states nights. that's why they organize it. but also that there's usually even william tales, and that was the case with good josby. and so was saddam hussein and not suffering
5:13 pm
happens just because failed states arise. and of course, i wonder why the europeans don't act at all because we're very close to it. this will close father refugee flight resort to, to just 3 months. so it's easy enough as i would have made a con luxury. he says the news soon enough. so this should be wary of repercussion from west and back regime change. a very intelligent and obviously very sensitive the statement from july me that david not funding to the trap of americans are made to on the demo friendship of support or housing. what they did with us, as long as on the dog and, you know, and what they did with the, you know, and possibly the other countries in the region to, even in libya. it's just very important that the drill down the understands the strategic depth of the nation with russia and cbs did, i think, as long as the we keep that momentum carry on. and if they would understand that, you know, continue deal is transmitting relation between russia and celia. it is very
5:14 pm
important for the region because uh, when you do a matter of getting a draft of america's needs going into it's very heads. and to do the idle, the expansion plans always buy and then go down the heights and all the other issues. so i think this is a very sensible statement by giovanni somebody is pushing back against what it has as far as the eas could tax it acceptance over economic re catastrophic policy by t of so that he has 5 minutes. so once the european commission to take action against him is it as his 5, the cutoff suffice russian gas to the continent. unilateral suspension of the gas transit via ukraine to slovakia will cost to europe and citizens, businesses and infrastructure. tens of billions of euro's each year. and ukraine almost 800000000 euros. the losses for russia will amount to only about 2000000000
5:15 pm
euros. that's just 3 percent of all the loss is cost to the use. 27 member states in russia will easily place that small amount of gas on other markets. so the amount of loss is for russia may be close to 0. the tacit acceptance of the unilateral decision by the ukranian president is absolutely irrational and wrong. it will lead to tensions and reciprocal measures. for this reason, i ask you, not only on behalf of the slovak republic, but above all, on behalf of the entire european union, to pay due attention to this unprecedented situation and attach urgent importance to it. so that here is 5 minutes have entitled to moscow to meet a lot of inputs in about the masa bucket home the you, it's been a lot of the silence about the naming prices and spaces starts in 2 days. as a kid has probably used to provide any russian gas from 5 and things through it's 30 feet, very few european politicians, a dad this week. i also gaines,
5:16 pm
the ease potentially detrimental approach to the issue. zalinski could not have received a more proper slap for his arrogance prime minister, robert fitz, so showed the whole world, but no one will mop the floor. with slovakia we refuse to be vassals of the west. we refuse to jump when brussels whistles. we refuse hatred towards the russians. we refuse war and robert fitz, so show the whole world that slovakia is a self confident and wise nation that is not afraid to go its own way. this issue is advising a view of is in the midst of its winter season bunting fears about the lack of the commodity which is used to hate times as low as i prime is a said his country could cut electricity suffice to paint in retaliation if he if something falls within rush and gas to the u. v, when a huge soleski attempting to bribe him, i'm going to the next 7. ok. so lensky returned to the topic of gas and asked me if
5:17 pm
i would vote in favor of any cranes. membership of nato. so if he gave me 500000000 dollars from russian asset and just one adult, i of course answered who never talked to, you know, my opinion on ukraine's membership in nato. and it's strange that he asked me such a question when i was or rather inputs it has weighed in on the math that he says he of is paying a dangerous game. oh, great, and it be a crew of ukraine has cut off our guest supplies to europe and consumers city. on the one hand, it picks from their hands because only with the support of the west, including from europe, can it exist not only to fight, but to exist, and at the same time, it creates problems for them by cutting off the supply of our relatively cheap gas to europe, there will be no such contract at all. everything is already clear. well then all right, we will survive. and guess problem was advised this way. so who is, is on a mock of a, it's a historian published as in via and he says the last he's short. so i think the
5:18 pm
policies will have consequences. not only for the you, but also for kids. since we have do some aggressive american and european union foreign policy against russia, it seems to be the next objective off through europe in union, and system play till its own industry. we are ending throughout some gas supply to europe. and you could only explain this either with unimaginable stupidity on the one hand or, and i think this is the real explanation we're from global is through us foreign policy or meddling in europe in order to decouple further europe from russia. so it will be a very interesting stand also in the long run. because of course, also ukraine has lots to loosen this gamble and stuff for the european union and america since um were for, for the delay of european energy exports to ukraine. of course,
5:19 pm
ukrainian energy and to speak with collapse. and this will to us also a grave consequences for ukrainian military underground. george's newly elected president has been in no good in the nation's capital to these he vowed to unite the build. them people in ex and impressions used to be okay. the 3 small today, our country is facing, pull the reservation, which is externally driven. every citizen of georgia is dear to me, despite their political views and affiliations. i am going to be a president for every one, despite who likes me and who does not double. my efforts will be aimed at uniting and consolidating the society despite different views. and i believe we should be able to unite around the relationships and values of our homeland around the future that we should build together in a very simple and pro here revealing protest we did via the decision to pause the integration discussions is really just as a habit not to recognize the results of the presidential election,
5:20 pm
i refused to leave the presidential palace. however, i see it has the exit, the building. se thing before departure that she quote, takes the gist of a c with a the 6 years ago, i took an oath to the constitution, but even most when loyalty to country and loyalty to you. that's why i'm here today . and that loyalty will never change whether i'm in the palace or whether i'm outside the palace. i will walk out of here. i will come out to you and i will be with you. this building belongs to no one. this building was a symbol, as long as there was a legitimate presence sitting here, i am taking that legitimacy with me. i'm taking the flag with me. i'm taking good trust with me. it doesn't mean that she's accepted defeat. in fact, just being quite clear, she remains in here point to view the need and legitimately elected to lead to in georgia. however, as you saw in some of those images that she has decided to leave the presidential
5:21 pm
palace. and i think that's pretty key because she had been threatened by the prime minister of georgia of being jailed if she were making that. because she said that that would constitute a crime in the country. what she will do the next. it's not clear. the question is, does she feel that she's got the backing for a fine or not? however, she said she remains the president and she's not relinquishing at least the ties to the office this election and defends the declaration of the president is not valid . so i remain president and i continue to do my job. that's what everybody has to know for when she left the presidential palace, she was greeted with the crowd of around 2000 protesters that support her as she did leave living for the next few hours are going to be the crunch, pointing with this protest, please don't use a dash o it finds
5:22 pm
a were new life and that's because when the process started, so that the end of november into december, we were seeing up to 100000 people out on the streets, not just in to police things, but across the country. i mean, this was a big protest movement. it was incredibly violent. we, so the protests just started fireworks towards the police throwing gloss bottles. we got closed up and not because the police then we using 2 gas to try and push the protest as a way i started will say many hours of silently expecting the client and find them so they will being subjected to. and we thought that that could see a bit of an explosion, but then suddenly that's the height down from say, a 100000 people out in the streets. it was maybe a couple of a 1000 each night. and since then we haven't seen the kind of violence of pete weeks, a feels as if it's a calm down that all the cool number of people who look on the streets every night, the georgia dream government has said this is being backed by the west to
5:23 pm
essentially, cust racing, it, they, the, to some, so 2 percent of the protest is from the, from the west as well. but it does feel as if it's comma. now we've seen the new gratian of the new president. i'm still owed me 0. basically, the former president to doesn't accept to support him present. even the presidential policy will last week, north east protest. i think in the next 24 hours, we will see whether that's the case. not right now, it doesn't feel as if it's about to explode, but anything could happen. i think it's a watch this space. what has been the reaction of the west so far to be on folding events in georgia? what was the in the us because the body didn't administration is just placed fresh needs sanctions on the phone to the 1000000000 that found the old georgian dreams. and we've also been hearing from one us congressman. now this is a republican, so the other side of the political divide. this is joe wilson,
5:24 pm
who has said that he has invited us so low mean sort of personality to donald from single gratian in january, stating that in his point to be, she's the only elected winter to it needed in georgia. but she was b that to represent at georgia dot in gratian and he's also now trying to post a new in the us that would see her officially recognized as being neat legitimately to next week, i will introduce the georgia nightmare non recognition act, which will prohibit us recognition of the legal dick tutorial regime in georgia and recognize salome zora beach, bailey as the only legitimate leader in georgia until such a time is free and fair elections are held. so i think given that we've got this cross party support for sanctions and possibly so miserably speedy, it'll be interesting to see how that plays out from the us perspective. coming to
5:25 pm
you or not one, we've had your pin the who's consistently saying that they support. so rubbish they, me that they won't be surprised selections that she's been cooling for. the baltic states, former certain vit states in particular have given her that support. however, i just wanted to how much that was on paper. and i say this because is salumi zuba should be really felt that she had the undisputed backing of europe. i'm not sure she would have left the presidential palace. i think you are right now is by fractured. we know that certain countries like hungry on in agreement with what brussel wants in regards to georgia and i think that tells you when laws as wellbeing us maybe supporting it. and so that if you are, isn't prepared to keep close of packing. i think she's realize this is a flight that she calls when, but again, we'll see what happens over the next few days. we are set down a controversial agency that had been taught with exposing,
5:26 pm
supposed forward and propaganda efforts. the us global engagement center, it was said to have controlled a budget of 60000000, was about a 120 staff members. but and that was as close as this week and made referrals. it had been completely stripped of funding, proven republicans of a few. the agents who are being biased in favor of the arrival of democratic policy and even says it was flying on unsettling. the americans. in recent years, the twitter filed expose what was claimed to be a mess, flagging of accountants on the social network. if they use us, had the question official democratic narrative about the co would pandemic, it must who purchased the company and this was the claims of its pos room doing so the us global engagement, since it was quote, the worst offend in american government, censorship and media manipulation that while the agency has been officially shots,
5:27 pm
the same department appears of reveals of the stuff to simply be shifted to other positions and even carry on the previous duties. ellie had from the house of the conservative daily pub costs, jo open. he said the agency is blocking information that the us government had deemed as a favorable he decided that this part of the closure is what will continue. well, i think it was affected. so doing what they wanted to do, which is basically stopping truth from hitting the market and being shared to other americans. you know, they, they like to say that it was designed to stop the russians and the chinese from pushing propaganda. but at the same time, the people that were working inside of gdc, we're working closely with the fbi, i in order to stop any information that we now know 6 months a year, 2 years later. um, you know, what absolutely ended up being true. and you have people like elvis chan who are
5:28 pm
working to lobby the big tech companies to keep them from allowing people like me from having account so were, were canceled all the time as a result of that. but what's bigger and what's more, i think, agreed to us and this isn't all the people inside that organization which basically represent organized criminals that got together. and so they're just gonna let this left aside. the ology permeated to our system that they're getting reassigned and they're getting reassigned with this kind of wink wink, will allow you to keep doing your job and lobbying these groups. um, while just working in different departments and in and in different environments. so this is it most concerned in part about it is it hasn't really close. they've just, they've gone underground. former us president, i had no peace prize on a jimmy cause a has died of the age of a 100 that's according to his son who was sizes by american media outlets missed a call that had a long list for the life of any us president. he was awarded the nobel peace prize
