the the headline stories the are going us secretary of state that meets flooding you'd crane with weapons before the 2022 conflicts hadn't even begun. and that's the spike washington. suppose it pro, this spends of the time we quietly got a lot of weapons to, to ukraine, to make sure that they hadn't had what they needed to defend themselves. things like stingers traveling, since they could use germany's foreign minister. it pushes women's rights on her recent trip to syria, only for the countries to how this leader to refuse to shake her local media, also blurring lena per box image in photos of the b. c. officials in the break way, european regional trends, mixture of coal for alternative ways to get brushing jobs after supplies were cuts

due to most due, but death to gas problems and keeps refusal to maintain from so to the continent, the wherever you're catching, then use our from across the globe today. welcome to moscow and then use wind up on our to you printing and forces have attempted a brick from attack and rushes cursed region where it baffles have been ongoing since keeps troops in fated. in august, the russian defense ministry stays the push is being repelled. at around 9 am aiming to stop the russian offensive in the cook region. enemy forces attempted to counter attack in the directions of bed and settlement with an assault team including 2 tanks upon a vehicle and 12 and vehicles carrying troops. artillery and aviation of the north, forced grouping, carried out strikes against the ukrainian assault group. 2 tanks, the pioneer vehicle and 7 and the vehicles were destroyed. the operation is ongoing

. yeah, all the major updates from down to we will bring it to you. of course. in the meantime, the us secretary of state has confirmed that washington started providing weapons to key as months before russia launched its military operation in 2022 out all r t senior correspondent broadcast seems to be looking into what has been revealed here says extended breakdown as the world around us, well, bones is order, renewal and security, and the economies crumble the button and ministrations foreign policy. my i'm for the blinking as aust us to pretend that everything's fine. she did a good job today as i sit with you. and as we look at the all of the terrain we've traveled these last 4 years, i think we hand over in america in a much,

much stronger position. having come through the economic crisis, having come through the health crisis. and having changed much for the better our position around the world because we've made those investments and i analyze this and partnerships also was, could objectively be described as a catastrophic tom which, which began with disaster and have gotten his thoughts until the into this uh start every where mr. blinking strapped down with a journalist to give his side of the story on how everything went to. first. if you look at the trajectory of, of the conflict, because we saw it coming, we were able to make sure that not only were we prepared and allies and partners are prepared for that ukraine was prepared. we made sure that well before the russian aggression happened, starting in september comp, the russian aggression happened in february starting in september. and then again, december, we quietly got a lot of weapons to, to ukraine to make sure that they hadn't had what they needed to defend themselves

. things like sting or is traveling so that they could use or, you know, attack the pro russian separate this in the don't boss of the top washer. mr. clinton ultimately it leads was right. the us and they do well, pumping ukraine photo guns and photos, imo hard cool. militarize ation. russia has been talking about this for many years about the us and u. k. pumping ukraine with weapons about n. listen, nato drills in the black sea, violating russian borders about western military aircraft, getting dangerously close to civil plains and russian air space. that's exactly why one of the special military operations objectives is the de militarization of ukraine to ensure our security miss the blinking is of cause. i saw his teeth from the stuff to the a c as the u. s. problems, ukraine full of guns. well,

they actually wanted to delve us is peace. i worked very hard and the lead up to the war, including, you know, meetings with my russian counterpart, surrogate alive, roth in geneva, a couple of months before the war. trying to find a way to see if we could prevent it, trying to test the proposition, whether this was really about russia's concerns for its security concern. somehow about ukraine and the threat that posed or nato and the threat that it posed. and we were intentionally engaged diplomatically with russia, was a co with incidents. i was also that in geneva, full that need to this is the villa where joe bottom and we're not gonna be approved in are going to meet all busy security here is nothing fell off as i remember. well how russian journalist, what bod for joe. but his purse conference where he took pre prepared questions, dave, pre prepared dogs is too pre selected journalist. i'll take your questions and as

usual, folks, they gave me a list of the people i'm going to call on. so jonathan associated press minutes walk away. meanwhile, lots of a, a poor loud journalist from over the us in europe. oscar, so she, whatever they bought, that i also this thing to remember the tools being an abject failure. because the united states refused to accept any of russia's concerns. since then. had there been any opportunity to engage diplomatically in a way that could end the war on justin durable terms? we would have been the 1st to seize them. unfortunately, at least till this moment. we haven't seen any size. the rush has been genuinely prepared to engage. i hope that that changes the expression, the best describes least the bring can slide the old version of events. these is covering one's boss hooks. is the blink. it's busy with fumbling. every crisis is

coming his way. somehow for goss about rushes, lets us in a to a 5. 0 boy, nick, stop expanding towards this or out. the less a, but they brought that little off that we called forget the, the stumble totes, of 2022. when you grade was, was ready to sign a piece deal with russia when russia was ready to give back him song and stuff. i don't, what was your regions? the same piece, deal the united kingdom, represented by no doubt but farce. johnson sabotaged and convinced ukraine to pull out of this. the billing could forget the don't one side of the african chinese piece initiative, which miss the brain couldn't help torpedo. and the top of that is the big could pull the sold. one of us, you let me idiots. that is essentially what he means when he says the russia

doesn't. one piece will not need to bring the body to nickel slowly. we have no conditions for starting negotiations. we are ready for a dialogue without frequent patients, but on the basis of what we agreed upon during the negotiation processing the symbol in 2022, which i have already said a 100 times and also on the basis of the realities on the ground. today he's had any sort of speaking of realities on the ground. they were much better for you grade before someone gave mr blinking last job due to your time to underwear them. these are decisions for ukrainians to make the they have to decide where their future is and how they want to get there, where the line is drawn on the, on the map. at this point, i don't think it's fundamentally going to change very much. the real question is, can we make sure that you find is in a position you lean forward strongly, that, that the, the areas that rush, the controls you've, you know, will have to be seated. seated is not the,

the question. the question is on the line, as a practical matter in the foreseeable future is unlikely to move very much. well, if it starts it's new credit and had a 1000000 more healthy and happy men who were well alive and well, millions more and population vastly more territory. lou less on payable debts and much more optimism about the future. half was ukraine before, but they couldn't buy them in bars, which would all sorts of disgusting things into the landscape is i do, you knew why? because it was never about you crazy. it's interesting what i'm hearing you say is that you can say i'm no longer rest and it's major support or the united states. you see it as resting, elsewhere, europe, etc. look, i hope very much. and i don't want to say expect, but i certainly hope very much that the united states will remain the vital support

that has been to ukraine. because again, this is not just about ukraine, it's never just been about u. k. it was always about nato because it's bullying could be even mess vice up off your average. you repeat or american? did they feel safe or somehow a brilliant plan to the feet. russia and ukraine has ton into european prime ministers cooling and the citizens to make stashes of cab foods and the by the administration. guessing the problem. bill, me the thing from the american people during the election, the russians. but right now no, don't look like this. the ukraine has low self warranty and is being directly used by the us as a battering ram against russia. almost immediately ukraine was turned into a testing ground for biological warfare experiments,

and is now being pumped up with weapons. with lots of the anglo saxons are basically running the show controlling the rest of the collective west. they are using the current situation which they created through ukraine, this war against the russian federation. to remove competition, they see us as a competitor pulling tickets. eventually remember how american senator lindsey graham, previously commented on this, and september 2023. you referred to us assistance to ukraine as and i quote, a good investment for the american people. the celebrated that they were destroying the russian army without losing a single soldier. new fridays, of course, only one case study and failure. mister britton can manage stuff for the buffalo, but the fun, but we think the world who asked him, we were determined to do everything we could to help ensure that october 7th will never happen again. we also wanted to make sure that the war wouldn't spread. the conflict wouldn't, wouldn't spread to other fronts,

to other countries because that would mean more death and destruction. it would also mean that the actions as are always taking and gaza were likely to enjoy or even longer. and i can come to that in a minute. 3rd, and we want it to make sure to the best of our ability that the children, the women, the men in gaza for caught in the crossfire of a mazda of initiation. that they did nothing to start and were basically powerless to stop. whereas protected as possible and got the assistance they needed to survive. this her as a conflict and we've been working on each of those fronts every day since. where does one begin? pallet start tens of thousands of civilians. dead millions displays safe. he's raised is really hostages. north with on israel, who is attacked pallet start leveling on iran, yemen, and has now virtually,

i'm ext even more of syria blue with americans supplied bottoms the bottom and blinking tub. big on live catastrophe. and i've gotten to stop which the outgoing secretary of state tried to praise. and he's interview, how does that early failure and i've gotta stand really change the sense. do you think that president fighting really had this under control, that you had it under control? do damage america's credibility. at 1st i make no apologies for ending america as long as war this i think is a signal achievement of the presidents. i think the question was what, what we're going to do moving forward from the withdrawal. we also have to learn

lessons from afghanistan itself, here at the state department, one of the things that i ordered almost immediately was an after action review to try to make sure that we understood what are we gotten right also, what are we gotten wrong track? we've actually put into practice many of those recommendations in subsequent prices that we have to face, whether it was an 11 on whether it was an israel, whether it was in sudan, all of that we brought to bear based on lessons that we've learned from afghanistan . i was back at the top. you also remember? so this is one of the tyler bands. how much trucks would be bold, see it on, on videos they have hundreds and hundreds of these thousands of other vehicles, billions of dollars worth of weapons with a valuation vehicle tags and even helicopters that we just left behind. we will for that, it was she really a to at the top, the

little that we knew that mr. blinking had much, much more applied. and what's tony worry is he still has 2 weeks to go to our, to another, over a headlines, stories today as the west question serious plans for women's rights. the muskets has delivered a blurry answer quite literally local media. oh, but scrubbed german foreign minister. i'm willing to pay for a bulk of photos from her and meeting with the middle eastern states, new estimates leader. while the official reason has been given some are pointing to the european officials clothing. she chose the war, treasures for gold covering her head decisions which conflict with certain this law

make norms. h t s. leaders however, denied, seeking to impose sharia law in the country. miss barrett, bach later told the press that serious relations with europe depend on the new leaderships attitude towards gender equality. a better future for syria means an inclusive peaceful transfer of power reconciliation and reconstructs. this requires the political dialogue involving all ethnic and religious groups involving men and equally women. we're frauds. and so many places not on you from syrian people in europe, but also from syrian people when i was before christmas and turkey and also is here today that they are making clear women rights are yacht, stick for the future, for everyone in the free sites. not only as many syrians will therefore job, so new lives by the extra wealth handled but maintaining germany's top diplomat

said she'd be touring syria with a night stretch tongue, which they hired to her. i'll show him chief, refused to shake. when receiving the delegation a while distressing funded circulating on social media ledges to show. so he is not in trim just this minister ordering the execution of 2 women. the incidents reportedly took place in the city of had led during the civil war in 2015 chevy, l y c was a prominent, telling this for a front terrace figure. at the time, he was appointed as a government minister following last month's toppling up a shot. all of a sudden, some theory and media outlets have confirmed a wide sea is the amount seen in the shocking videos with independent debts, reporters, sonya funding, and a questions. if western officials generally expect inclusive measures from the militant authorities now they backed, or if it's simply full concern named

a domestic audience. what did elaina think that she was going to a normal large european democratic government or something? i mean, she was going to the service, that's put it clear. the ones who now in government is how ya subsidy shown before the question about the booster. okay. the actually, the syrian people call them isis or that show, what do i have in mind to prove that this, this man, i mean, they cannot be, i mean, we saw in the internet circulating today at 2 horrible videos about the minister of justice of this new syrian, the government, who was the judge and he was ordering to execute women if live in 2015. when you look at this new government, i think 2 ladies in the well, they collaborate. of course if did you have is they will not be much in the picture because okay, they had to do this because of the, you know,

there are funding them and of course the u. s. is funding them. so because of women rights, they have to point to women in their month. their role is minimized. we can say that's and it, yeah, it is one. that's how dumb are western politicians or maybe not them. i mean, maybe it's old in the game, of course, to do a political game. and when the west is saying all the very good guys who don't suits, you know, trim your bath and yeah, there you are, you on our molar and government respecting women rights respecting minorities maybe that has a new role, maybe late to the l g b tingle who knows? okay, a story that we are comes the following. most dover has been cut off from russian gal supplies after feeling the surplus, most of debt with gals problem. but that also means the break away region of tons of mystery is no longer getting the fuel either leading to mass blackouts, local officials or not calling for new ways to import russian gas. the trends the

nesta should have direct relations with russia without any intermediaries, including in relation to gas. our formula, direct supplies from russia via whichever pipe payments on our most goes issue, which is nobody's business. we are not interested in buying gas from romania and europe at market prices. just do not prevent us from working with russia, and we will not let them rob us can take over off factories or stop them under the pretext of lack of resources to help large enterprises. for residential transfer, they start are enjoying nancy power cups, hospitals and the central food production plans are the only sites still running large the unaffected, most other facilities been forced to shut down? many citizens are left without water or he's a local reporter in moldova. how's that part of the lease spotted police? they're making sure no gas flows to the landlord region. either.

we are now near the village of gra bickley. these guys are guarding the tab that supplies gas to transmit street the and they closed it. now this police crew is guarding the valves really, really poor the energy crisis in moldova, on terms nice, german merge. when ukraine refused to renew the 5 year contract on russian gas drums of on january 1st, kitchen not been requested at most energy, john gas from deliver fuel via alternative ways. however, the company holsted supplies as molto, but failed to pay debts for already consumed fuel, which russia estimates of over $700000000.00. global policy specialist storage zamarelli saves molto, but appears to be using gas as a political weapon against a brick aware area. the energy businesses or is a long term business, you signed contracts, there's a long term contract. you can just turn in, turn things on and off at any moment, just turn the switch on the transmission get converted this gas into electricity

and this electricity k to, to 80 percent of mobile with electricity needs. and now, because mold over has purchased a, whatever electricity from other sources and cheaply romania. so what's really happening now is an attempt to colores transmits for you and saying, well look, you don't, you don't have any gas so you can get it from us. we'll provide it for you, what you have to pay market prices for it, which is a little bit much because mold over itself is nothing market prices for the gas, it's get it. and so that's, that's what they're trying to do. so they, they, they look, if this is what you graham's plan, was because this was washington plan, which was to provoke a crisis which transmits street in order to, um, in the they, there's a, because the independence of transistors, of this is really trying to open the 2nd, front against russia,

the u. n. has accused israel of breaching the already shaky truce in southern 11 on the world bodies peacekeeping mission, witness the idea of destroy a lebanese army observation tower. under the terms of last year, a ceasefire deal is real likely to withdrawal from the area by late january. it's in the ne has bola now it says it's prepared to take action against any violations . you know, you'll just when examine there is no timeline that dictates the resistance is actions neither within the agreement nor after the expiration of the 60 day period mentioned in the agreement. we have stated that we're giving an opportunity to prevent is really violations. and to implement the agreement and that we will exercise patients well. however, this does not mean we will wait precisely 60 days, nor does it mean we will wait for less or more than 60 days. and our patients is tied to our decision regarding the appropriate timing to confront his really aggression in violation. our patients may run out before the 60 days or it may last

longer. this is a matter for the leadership to decide. let's say far it came into force in november, both sides have since traded multiple accusations of breaches. the terms required as follow to lay down arms in southern lebanon. and for israel, the pallets troops from the country within 60 days, the deal followed most across quarter strikes. an idea of front invasion earlier, israel try it out. a shocking bombing attack. that's all sizes of wireless devices exploded across lebanon, coming dozens, and entering many more calling notes here shar t's. steve sweeney. the. the, the simple walk is now bought it up images from hey, when 5 or on september the 17th 2024. when at least $42.00 people were killed and $4000.00 wounded, including women and children, and

a series of pages explosions across. and i've been living in hell service was plunged into crises, struggling to cause the demo. and due to the wounded patients, i made an urgent appeal for blood donations. according to lebanon's health ministry, the majority of the victims was civilians want to set. the sheer volume of cases was far greater than the polt. explosion of 2020 many lost the eyes and limbs, some of the shrapnel launching their brains. the finger of blame was pointed as well, and often months of denial is where the prime minister benjamin netanyahu finally admitted. well, many already used the pager operation and the elimination of hezbollah leader, her son, nestor, allah, were carried out despite the opposition of senior officials in the defense establishment and those responsible for them in the political echelon. it was considered by many as an act of war against 11 men each other's the legalities of the operation, including then the foreign policy, joseph burrell, while others condemned as an active tara,

i should have been pretty sure i should pretty dealer striking example of terrorist methods as a means of achieving political goals is the in humane attack on lebanon, and by turning civilian technology into a deadly weapon, this crime must be investigated immediately. but even now we can not ignore numerous publications in the media, including in europe and here in the united states, which testified to some form of involvement and at least awareness of washington in the preparation of this terrorist attack. and you feel like you to be able to place an explosion in technology that is very prevalent, the stage and turn it into a war of chair. really war? i'm sure this is something new. is it terrorism? i don't think there's any question that it's a form of the church say i was hoping i would slow down the sides of june to the indiscriminate nature of the attack as well. have no way of knowing just who would be killed or wounded. what israel has just done his via any method reckless. they

blew up countless numbers of people who were driving, meeting cause out of control. shopping. your children are in the stroller standing behind him in the checkout line, etc, indistinguishable from terrorism. despite this western media around politicians, lovers price only as well for what they describe as a sophisticated attack, i want to be very clear. i saw what israel chose to do about blowing up the pagers and then walkie talkies. and then after targeting and eliminating membership and leadership of handful, uh, i absolutely support that. and in fact, if anything, i love it, it was a problem you know, making with us intelligence tool since i knew being planned for some 15 years with the question of how it happened, remains a mystery with a child leading from taiwan to h in europe. i'm find the lebanon involving a number of shell companies, and that should be fronted by most of the 1st time. but each company go to product, was identified as the manufacturer of the pages, but an issue just with denial,

claiming it sold a license to be a see consulting and hungry, and then alleged most of the show company. but its website disappeared. so, you know, off to the explosions, while all these own investigations drew a blank, as you can see the from behind me, this is a very much a residential neighborhood. so that could be, office space is here, but it's essentially a residential or a family's living here. there is no way that's all that anything could be manufactured here. big questions i asked about this company. now, one thing to keep in mind is that was the, the website was taken down. the link in the page for the company is still up. and you could look at the links in page it's, it's not a pto plan that this company does anything for oh, is the, is the familiar corporate double the do? i absolutely meaningless and gives you no indication that tool of what it is that

this company does. so it looks like a rather of, of sony uh, company set up in order to be upfront for some kind of transactions. but there's no, no sense at all that this is anything other than upfront for something a holding company or shell company, whatever. but it doesn't look a little like a, it's a company that does any kind of a business, performs any kind of a service. then another name, a paid on the right off north, a global limited, which is i'd like to have supply the pages to lebanon to add for the entry to the mystery. so i'm going to dissipate on the day of the attacks that in december, cbs interviewed a ledge for most ad agents involved in the operation who corroborates and what was already in the public domain. claiming it'd be time for decades will say with the truth and evidence, there was never any doubt the attack of being planned for a long time. i did mention that in the course of events proved that what was going

to happen was not related to the resistance is position in supporting garza. israel was preparing to an attack on lebanon, and the resistance. and the pagers attack had been planned for years. the page or tack small at the beginning of isabel's escalation of its aggression against 11, on which left at least 4000 people dead, 100000 buildings damaged or destroyed in the city of allege war crimes. including the killing of health workers and journalists. despite the si, fi as well as the bombing continues on the on 2 pies, schools that footages in southern lebanon. meanwhile, television has been in bold and carrying out new kinds in gowns and occupying whole slices of territory and syria. all carried out with totally impunity on 0 accountability. because some news coming into the program, at least 7 people helping killed by a fire in a residential building in the central russian region of cute off.
