to the, the i going us secretary of state to admit flooding ukraine with weapons before the current conflict had even begun stops despite washington. suppose it pro peace spends of the night. we quietly got a lot of weapons to keep trying to make sure that they hadn't had what they needed to defend themselves. things like sting or it's traveling so they could use also add on the program, germany's for administer, it pushes women's rights on her recent trip to syria, only for the concrete job as leader to refuse to shake her hands with local media. also lowering lena burrow box image and photos up. let me check on the spheres of religious persecution. rise and estimates control survey at one of the country's most prominent christian voices brings us her perspective only

unfolding price. not only my life, but as man he likes may be in danger, because uh we can see that the, despite the words of the thank goodness ation varies carlos the from of school to the world. this is our t hello and welcome to then use our ukranian forces have attempted a break through a tuck and rushes crushed region where buffalo was helping ongoing since keeps trips invaded last 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 direction of bed and settlement

with an assault team including 2 tanks, a pioneer vehicle and 12 and vehicles carrying troops, artillery and aviation, of the north fullest 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 . meanwhile, the us secretary of state has confirmed that washington started providing weapons to key a months before russia launched its military operation in 2022 or to the senior correspondent broadcast the of has been looking into lots being revealed here since extensive breakdown as the world around us, well, bones is or the renewal and security and the economies crumble the button and ministrations foreign policy. my anthony blinking has asked us to pretend that everything's fine. she did a good job today,

as i said with you. and as we look at the all of the terrain we've traveled these last 4 years, i think we hand over an american and 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 tub. which, which began with disaster would have gotten to start until the into this uh start every where mister, blinking strapped down with a journalist to give his side of the story on how everything went to 1st. 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. that 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 missed the blinking. ultimately it leads was right. the us and they do well, pumping ukraine, sort of guns and full of i'm o hard cool. militarize ation. russia has been talking about this for many years about the us and u. k. pumping you crane with weapons about unless 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 want to see valve us is peace. i work 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 when, since i was also that in geneva, full that music. this is the villa where joe budman related to me i put in are going to meet the busy security here is nothing fell off as i remember. well how russian journalist what bod from do by this press 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, a minutes woke away. meanwhile, lots of a, a poor loud journalist from over the us in europe, and i believe the us, whatever they bought that. and 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 brain can slightly older version of it then sees is covering one's box 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 outs, valesa, but they brought me off that we called forget the, the stumble totes, of 2022. when you grade was, was ready to sign a piece deal with russia. russia was ready to give back him song and part of 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 mister blinking, forget that on one side of the african chinese peace initiative, which miss the brain couldn't help to p though. and on top of that is the blinking

all the thoughts, all of us, you let me, the indians, that is essentially what he means when he says the russia doesn't. one piece will not bring the body to nickel slowly. we have no be conditions for starting negotiations. we are ready for a dialogue without pre conditions, no, but on the basis of what we agreed upon during the negotiations processing the symbols in 2022, which i have already said a 100 times and also on the basis of the realities on the ground. 2 days and he told us clearly speaking of realities on the ground, they were much better for you grade before someone gave missed the blinking last job due to your time to underwear them. these are decisions for ukrainians to make . 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 is fundamentally going to change very much . the real question is, can we make sure that you find is in

a position you lean forward from 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 its new credit and had a 1000000 more healthy and happy men who were well alive and well, millions more and population vastly more territory. a new 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, do you knew why? because it was never about you, craig. it's interesting what i'm hearing you say is that you can say, well, 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 of that it's meant to ukraine, because again, this is not just about ukraine, it's never just been about u. k. it was always about nato. but because it's billing could be even mess laptop off your average, you repeat, or american the very few save. somehow, a brilliant plaid 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, bill seeing from the american people during the election, the russians. but right now no, don't look like this. the ukraine has lots of 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. on the sides 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 ticket. eventually remember how american senator lindsey graham previously commented on this in 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. fridays, of course, only one case study and failure to bring could 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 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, is to enjoy or even longer. and i can come to that in a minute. 3rd, we want it to make sure to the best of our ability that the children, the women, the men in gaza, who were 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 displaced, cities raised is really hostages. north with the israel,

who is the type pilot started living on iran, yemen, and has now virtually i'm next with more of syria blue, with american supplied bottoms the bottom and blinking tub began with catastrophe. and i've gotten a start, which the outgoing secretary of state tried to praise in his interview. how did that early failure? and i've gotta stand really change the sense. do you think that president fight and 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 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 the 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 were just left behind. we will for that, it was she really

a to at the top the, the little that we knew that list the blinking have much, much more applied. and what's tony worry is he still has 2 weeks to go. now, as the wes question, syria is plans for women's rights, damascus has delivered a blurry answer quite literally. look at media all about script, german, foreign minister. i don't know the number of bulk of photos from our meeting with the middle eastern states, new as the miss leader. while the official reason has been given, some are pointing to the european officials clothing she chose to wear trousers and

forego, covering her head decisions which conflicts with islamic no one's hitch. the leaders however, have denied seeking to impose sharia law and the country. miss burbock. later told the press that serious relations with europe, the pen, the new leadership, salvage you towards gender equality. i bet the 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 in cherokee and also here today that they are making clear women rights are yacht sticks for the future. for everyone in the free sites. not only as many syrians will therefore job,

so new rulers, by the ex, the head of that makes it germany's talk, this much said she'd be touring syria with an ide stretch tons, which the highest rear of some chief refused to shake when receiving the delegation . meanwhile, distressing funded circulating on social media purports, the sho, sorry, is comments, justice minister, ordering the exclusive to women allegedly for adults, for instance, are believed to have taken place in the city of it live during the civil war in 2015 chevy. why you see was a prominent 1000 news for from terrace figure at the time he was appointed as a government minister following last month's toppling up a chart on this at some survey and media outlets have confirmed a lacy is the mom indeed seen the shocking videos for the independent dutch reporter sonya funded and a questions if western officials genuinely expect inclusive measures from the job, the authorities about the box or if it's simply full concern and other 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 your subsidy as 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 government, who was the judge and he was ordering to execute women. it's live in 2015. when you look at this new government, i think to day do send the well, they collaborate, of course is, 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 put 2 women in their month. their role is minimized. you can say that's and it, yeah, it one that how dumb are western politicians or maybe not them. i mean, maybe it's all the in the game, of course, to do a political game. and when the west is saying all the very good guys who do all the suits, you know, trim your beth, i'm. yeah, there you are. you on our muller and government respecting women rights respecting minorities. maybe that has a new role, maybe late to the l g beat single knows fear is all of a renewed secretary and conflict are spreading across syria and made reports of threats and the tax on religious minorities. i discussed the situation with the mother superior of the monastery of saint james, the mutilated in the country. she explains lots christians, no face in the estimates from nation following the overthrew of the assad

government. not only my life, but the man, the lice may be in danger because uh, we can see that the, despite the words of uh, including ization, very scales and the we, we don't even know who is leading to. he is a country, many groups so many entities. we can say that to anybody or those people doing sometimes whatever they want. and there are so many particular events, the, particularly the events of aggression know for probably of this couldn't be nation of aggravation. they use the tools icon as mostly though the

protection. it's impossible to date. one story we've been following here are the top diplomats from ostensibly christian nations, germany and france. visiting the mosque is meeting the new hate h t. s. leaders. how early in our par as indeed any other nation in the west made any attempts to contact you and offer offer support to the christian community? no, no, we are really, really, really good. it is like, is google shouldn't make situation. definitely, but this is, i mean, those, the people coming from european nations or from western nations or from nations. they say everything is okay. it's in the beginning, it's celia of the intensive. but in reality tv,

we don't see the outcome of the seems to me. yeah. is it the everybody's celebrating? i am afraid that we are heading over to terra and this is very negative. and the but nobody's saying that there is there not, for example, in the western media and they called ways that they, they don't saved the tools, they don't know why they just, they're just happy that to visa change happened. many people would agree to, to leave the country or the day see if he's continuous, we will not be able to leave to the verse safety in this country. so

i don't know, i hope for that the new leaders, we have the, the college to, to look at union executive way. i mean, what is happening by them? do we try to find solution? i feel that they are close numbers and uh they were not expecting that to to, to, to run a country isn't that did say the same thing is in this, in to the implant. for example, the mother i can this, can i just ask you ahead of the fast approaching orthodox christmas? is there anything you would like to say to the millions of people who will be marking it when the fees made to the letter says, or deluxe? well, we have a great top endorsing books one because they keep the winter and not the

the, the fidelity or their values distribution on what to do 2530 the, they told us we have the same swat this year to see the addition. so of course the very unhappy and very proud of them. we are also very much unite to visit them even so we follow another kind of but it's the same. we study each this. jesus is the same, the fees. so for the best for the orthodox word or even the direct phone is or the images here in the, in the title, in the molto but has been cut off from russian gas supply softer

feeling to settle its most of debt with gals problem. but that also means the break of a regional trans nice tra, is no longer getting the fuel either leading to mosse blackouts, local officials, or not, calling for new ways to import russian gas trends. the nesta should have direct relations with russia without any intermediaries, including in relation to gas. our formula, direct supplies from russia via which have a pipe payments on our end to most goes issue, which is nobody's business. we are not interested in buying gas from romania and europe market prices. just do not prevent us from working with russia. and we will not let them rob us, can take over all factories or stop them under the pretext of lack of resources to help large enterprises. residential trends and extra are in during lengthy power cuts, hospitals and a central food production plants are the only side still running large the on affected most other facilities helping force to shop done. many citizens are left

with solid water. he's a local reporter in moldova apartments. responded police, making sure no gas flows to the la la. we are now near the village of gore, a, bickley. these guys are guarding a tab that supplies gas to transfer this to the engine. they closed it and put a post. now this police crew is guarding the valves really it wasn't, it was to really pull the energy crisis in moldova, on terms of easter. i merged on january 1st. really, when you crane refuse to renew a 5 year contract on russian gas drugs, that cation not been requested at most energy, john gas from deliver fuel via alternative ways. however, the company holt at supplies has moved over, failed to pay debts for already consumed fuel, which russia estimates it over $700000000.00 with global policy specialist george zamarelli safe. moldova appears to be using gas as a political weapon against the break away area. the, the energy business is a, is

a long term business. you signed contracts, there's a long term contract, you can just turn it to and things on and off at any moment, just doing the switch on the transmission. you convert that this gas into electricity and this electricity case of to 80 percent of model with electricity needs and now because mold over as purchased uh, whatever, uh, electricity from other sources, chiefly 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 most of itself is not paying market prices for the gas since get it. and so that's, that's what they're trying to do. so they, they, they look, if this is what you grains plan was because this was washington plan which was to provoke a crisis which transmits street in order to and the leaves the so we

cause the independence of transmission. so this is really trying to open the 2nd from the gains, russia. well, that's where we leave and use are up for now, but we are to have our team dot com a visit when you come to see what's making headlines early. this 2025 oldest plenty to pick your interest there. good by the, the russian states. never d as tight as one of the most sense community best most i'll send send up the send the 65. 95 must be the one

else calls question about this, even though we will then in the european union, the kremlin mission, the state on the rush to day and split the r t. suppose next, even our video agency, roughly all the band on youtube tv services. for what question did you say from stephen twist, which is the, [000:00:00;00]

the chest, the go, it adds it in, okay. and let me, what's gonna be getting on there. you can only put that are right. yeah. and you come woke up with this cuz i use that as and we come with the before them, we started do it for you. okay. now, just to mcgill in, because of the lease k e financing. uh, either given that all the way down the steps of getting them if dot net you put you, you can stream business. no, honey, the customers bought them. put in the 2nd 24. cool. my discontinue dozens of your tooth language feature,

films are released every year for the film production. the republic rank stood and
