4:03 am
which was very clear the future of gotten, i can only be realized with all citizens, especially the younger generation, a given the tools to succeed and he stalls on youth development and has again team the support in the respect of young people have listened to this. have the same brand and it's hard while parents and help us move on. we are looking up the hebrew, at least, yes, find a way to find himself and then get past that jobs. so we would also have something to do to make out feelings at that home. now sometimes it gives us maybe, uh, people in the same information that we saw president abraham trial. we're also looking a fossil made a star. we can try and for the entry to across to attain to the sooner. many off president my how much she's to visit him off to his face, the official visits,
4:04 am
as i know in the as the country outside the us, the holiday lives was coming in to paula in 2022 and the reception was nothing for us to protect you about the visit, read the underscore, the importance of regional cooperation and the deepening relationship between picking a false and cannot even find that. and the global solves countries and very important fee as well gotten the remains the only coastal state's not directly impacted by. so how based attacks and that is dense to it's of resilience. however, it has absorbed over 15000 refugees from picking a fossil needing to significant economy security places. but it does say that it is managing the school over if it's by expanding its military and security operations in the north. and about 2 years ago, you to mean, but between the fossil molly, i'm is the form to the alliance of the health states. the nations announced the withdrawal from april was no team due, can his nation had filled them and failed to help them in the fight against
4:05 am
terrorism. but as a cause, see overall the form achieved, mahatma had a very good plan in mediating and a lot of conflicts in the south region and what he's experienced. many believe she will have a political role to pain, bringing to give the the sub region and helping us the whole at she's the school and the global self. well area in the program i was, i talked to a businessman at a geo political analyst who has been living between gone around but kind of fast. so a big thought at ativa when bronco he says the presence of, of getting across those lead id and olga ration and so many other officials from the boss. so hell is really sending a clear message. my, my husband will be doing is pass a eh, time in the, in the office of the presidency. and he has to develop a lot of bridget duff with really help being done. used to move forward. no. my, my somebody is
4:06 am
a president. okay. about the development and about doing that the what when being the guy is an evening of the cost as to who is the 1st time uh its got $10.00 tower. it has made the move outside of uh, of the countries and it did little book to for us as these uh that the i as use of the is the 1st me outside the control, the european countries in africa and government is one of the country. he decided to come to because of mama policy, the new mom a long time. well what, what am i doing? and my mouth didn't to come pay has to come out. yeah. that the when to pull the book, you know, for so many a news that said, you know, don't want to corporate for me to liberate the african countries. well it's about me, see is not, but i think it's con,
4:07 am
jointer is firing bucket from stunning powers to stay in its own lane, offer a manual macro and delivered a slew of allegations against the police. a saying that nation is beholden to mosque. i don't use the names that we see in recent years. russia has intensified its aggression and change the nature of its aggression towards europeans and other countries of the world. we saw it in georgia by d, stabilizing the electoral process by stuffing ballot boxes. they tried the same and moved over, but they did not succeed. let the french president take a look at ukraine, which they have sacrificed to its destruction. i'm talking about what the real problem is. i won't comment on their lies. i'm commenting about the problem that we are all facing today. a devastated ukraine. well, as microns remarks have sparked fears, criticism in to police say, but the speaker of george's parliament reminded the french leader to look in his own gilded mirror and see how pirates has lost credibility these days. not
4:08 am
that i intend to interfere in french domestic politics. but given that 61 percent of french people support the resignation of president macro and 50 percent want the dissolution of the national assembly. new elections may be a good way out of the political crisis. so it was what just last month for the french president published a video, a message to the people of georgia. he said he was supporting the european and democratic aspirations of some georgia incentives says that you are not trying to the stabilize anybody. well, it's not that nonsense because western powers with the troublesome n g o. so put enormous pressure on the republic of georgia, southern states parliamentary elections and october talk about post election meddling. the countries being gripped by protest sled by pro easy groups and funded by the usual suspects like george soros and his client of n g o. to refuse to recognize the ruling party as victory. we heard from the leader of the george and opposition party that supports
4:09 am
a more national oriented stones. he said, microns comments that just another example of what he calls a long list of the west. skip a critical foreign policy you up on this is alyssa. i completely agree with prime minister, cool, but he'd say i want to add to his remarks. let my cron worry about his own country about those tragic results of his own repressions. for example, of the yellow best movements. at that time, the french police arrested 3000 people and they are now serving prison sentences. we have arrested only 8 people. there was no interference from russia right now, but there was a clear direct intervention, an attempt to over troll be legitimately elected governments by the european union and the outgoing us administration. it wouldn't be good if my crime would worry about his own country and his own readings. he is a president of a country that doesn't support him. he could even come in 2nd place and then the election. by the way, it's worth comparing how my crone schultz and the british were outraged by you
4:10 am
alone must statements when he supported the very popular alternative for germany party. that is, when the situation concerns them. they consider such statements to be interference in internal affairs. but they think that they can do the same, and this trend has been observed for centuries. they're just used to treating other nations that way. they don't know, georgia, syria, we go here on the program of a half a 1000000 people have been displacing the homes off of the higher teddy. and i'll show him to ers group over through bush allah side and the nation last month. files and small seeking refuge be on the board as the level going to be going out here on the story with our correspondent steve sweetie. he's speaking with a refugee who recalls the moment the damascus fell. i think does this stop just to talk us through you were in damascus on the night that the city fell to the jet on these forces? can you tell us what it was like on that night?
4:11 am
sort of how am your i anticipated at the fall of the regime was near on the night the regime fell in damascus. i returned home at around 11 pm at that hour old damascus. and the rest of the city was gripped by significant tensions attention. arose from reports that the army was withdrawn from certain areas in the damascus country side. this withdrawal was accompanied by immense fear among the syrians. i woke up at 2 am to the sound of gunfire. at that point i started communicating with my friends, both those in damascus and those outside the city. some friends in damascus told me to stay calm and that the groups entering various areas of the damascus countryside weren't causing any harm. there was no immediate danger, but we would hear a chance of a low bar and gunfire. people were understandably scared. no one dared to leave their homes. we knew that arm groups were entering, but we didn't know how they were treating civilians. we stayed inside our homes avoiding any interaction with the former regime for the new groups entering
4:12 am
damascus, ultimately as minorities living and bob to my a christian neighborhood. our lives were at risk despite being she a muslims, we were born or both to murder a solve for having our freedoms curtail. as i understand there were many, many thousands of people that fled syria of to the type of regime to power. you were among these people, can you just tell us about how and in fact, why you decided to at least area and a little bit about the people that were, were leaving on the 1st day after the resumes form the groups entering were not extremes like hyatt every or all shot or jump out on those for the 1st group to enter from the damascus country side. the in southern syria was the us backed mega . we're all star. these individuals didn't subscribe to outside as id, ology, or extreme as long as views, they were armed,
4:13 am
states supported fighters who entered damascus because of this, people were not as fearful. however, when hired to rear alshaun entered damascus, the next day people began to fear them. they had long hair and no moustaches. they were armed and some carrying isis flags and others, displaying sectarian slogans on their vehicles. for instance, there were slogans like we are against christians and we will kill to ship. the slogans were visible on the vehicles arriving from head live while some celebrated the developments. others packed up and left the very next day. among those who fled were christians, i personally met christian priest at the syrian lebanese border. luckily, he made out of syria. others have not been so fortunate and we're hearing these horror stories of the persecution of christians, of she or of lights we're hearing i'm. we've seen footage circulating on social media showing some homes atrocities being carried out against these minority
4:14 am
communities against those alleged to have been very close to all parts of the assad government. what can you tell us about the fundamental problem is that over 14 years, these groups have committed heinous crimes. when they gain control over most of syria, minorities began feeling deeply anxious. whether christians, she is al white's or drew's all face threats, even the druids who often oppose decides regime we're now under a greater threat from high up to 3 or alshaun for minorities. the primary concern became their survival. you know, damascus, there were no immediate attacks of minorities, but in areas like the city of homes, there were mass killings targeting, she is, she is, we're just waste from their homes. mosques were looted in churches in the city of homes were ransacked. homes were confiscated and their rightful owners were expelled. people were subjected to in humane treatment,
4:15 am
rounded up and executed for being l. y, or shields. christians were slightly more protected due to international attention which she owes and now the whites were left defenceless. despite promises from the new government to protect minorities, these were dismissed as isolated incidents. the new government claimed they weren't responsible for individual actions. however, under a sods regime, such actions were suppressed immediately. so this tool that we're hearing and also being protected in the west in price of the new regime, the crew administration in the city of protecting minority seems to be from what you're saying, something of a mist. honestly, western media has been working to rehabilitate the image of other mohammed al gilani since the fall of a size regime. they portray him as a hero who over through one of the most oppressive regimes in the middle east. but alger lonnie remains a criminal. this fact has been forgotten,
4:16 am
thanks to the efforts of western media. western outlets have re branded al giovanni as someone who is changed overnight despite his affiliations with isis and you about on news read. the media has worked to clean his image for the world. both western and syrian audiences they succeeded. i must admit, however, syrians, especially minorities, can not forget 14 years of atrocities. the ongoing attempt to convince the west that al giovanni's group protects minorities is misleading. recently the french foreign minister visited old, damascus, and met with christian priest. their primary concern was not just their safety, but the safety of all syrians. they told the minister, it's not enough for us to live in peace. we want all syrians to live in peace, whether they are, she is sunni's drew's or al white's. the sentiment was express beautifully by a priest. as long as my syrian neighbor is safe, i am said in this profound statement emphasize unity and the collective wellbeing of all syrians. so i'm not quoting him, an economic subject to a,
4:17 am
it's off. is that lines? can you turn it off the top? so the cheaper russian energy flowing into europe and now keeps finding the cut russian crude oil flow into year. but through the southern br onto the bruce, but pipeline ones, the contract expires in 2029 hungry says ukraine has taken upon itself the spot that deepening crisis in the you and that's putting keeps hopes of joining the block and a lot of jeopardy since the end of ukrainian transit route, the price of natural gas and the european market has increased by 20 percent. thus, while ukraine aspires to join the u as a candidate, another decision has once again, put the european economy in a more difficult position. you creams decision to stop, transit shipments will lead to further price increases and create new competitiveness challenges for central europe and the european union as a whole. well, besides soaring energy costs hitting every consumer pocket book, the whole of europe, his face with a shrinking gas reserves have a look at that that it's a bloomberg not reporting the reserves are at 70 percent capacity,
4:18 am
which is far below levels last year. and as went to groups, the region local prizes will keep on rising as a cheaper pipes. russian gas is replaced by expensive american liquid fi, natural gas. however, the russian economy, despite western sanctions and all sorts of stuff, photoshoot, bailey feeling, the impact and it continues to grow was moscow, has turned. eastwood has been delivering gas to the power of siberia pipeline to customers like china. and our next guest says that while you crate it, and if you are being spawns, as will suffer from key of energy decision, the russian economy remains very much into the actually even you agree is losing this because of the all the freeze, the, it's losing for an attraction, this is what they call the your van. that a gas dilemma. actually, europe is trying to die, right. diversify it's or energy sources. but it's kind of in the short term because
4:19 am
it's still relying on russian energy sources. and uh, you order for it to actually say versus why he's going to take some time. it's not going to be yours. my going to be a couple years is going to take a big game or the case. and this is problematic for european politicians, unaware of it. so the impact is very low. it's and they're one percent of the russian g, d, b, that's being impacted on this. and the, i think the euro will still be using the russian energy sources. even man, i'm short term 5 states i big over here on the program. i donald trump is a q is the outgoing bite and administration of playing with fire when it comes to ukraine. he said he understands the issues, russia face stuff. the kid was promised the dream of joining the nato blog. have a listen. a big part of the problem was russia for many, many years, long before
4:20 am
a boot and said, you could never have nato a involved with ukraine. now they've said that that's been like written in stone, and somewhere along the line vitamin said no, they should be able to join nato. well, then russia has somebody right in the doorstep and i could understand their feeling about that. i think part of the problems presidential campaign was a promise to end the ukraine conflict. in a single day, the trump appointed a special envoy to tackle the issue vehicles. however, keith kellogg postponed his trip the key up and we spoke with you walter of google . okay, public michael braxton will now he says, what have a trunk one's might not be enough to overcome the desires of the lead on the american, the military industrial complex. pretty good that trump promised to end the war in ukraine before he got into office. then of course he found out that's not really possible because he's not allowed to negotiate until he is actually the president.
4:21 am
and i would think that the policy better change because we're feeding all of these ukrainians and russians into the mob desks for absolutely nothing. and all of this i think, has to do with the interest in ukraine's resources and not with anything to do with put in so that you know, the so called hitler and so forth. i think this is really another case of lies issued by the representatives of the military industrial complex to keep this as an add a never ending war. and there's no sense in which we, we, we, united states needs to be involved and we need to get our, for our money and our funds out of this conflict and quit sending arms and in money to ukraine. this is outrageous. what, what's, what is happening? billions and billions and billions of dollars, hundreds of billions of dollars. keep slowing to ukraine to no end and for no
4:22 am
reason. but i say this conversation felt that i would speak with the full way of crating and different, but on the right to the shrine, going out. joining us here on how to international onto a grid to get you on the program. thank you in advance for your time today of what we just wanted to ask you about this new uh, american diplomat who's supposed to be helping the ukraine issue a key of analysing it's a good thing, the trump's piece, and boy keith caught. okay. keith callo got postponed, is visit to ukraine on today. your thoughts on what could be behind the logic of that. we have to understand that today is explaining, this is very complex and the new and especially in washington is looking for a way i ought to be frank about to look at some of the agenda right now. we talking to the, to the c max from understanding what the company refresher was the one to save their face. that's what they needed to postpone this trip. not to come with me beforehand before the migration, as it was told before, properties that gallery,
4:23 am
oh, this is oh, shaken to happen. much faster than if it starts between before it could be legal. some he said, that's 1st of all set off, save the face of the united states. that's why he's, we're not going to go see the situation that we were pushing on canada. it's a show that the method can get out of this. i think that's going to be the precise talk with russian president to the assets on this. and i did. i'm on the issue of what can be spoken about what us to get out of this new world order. did you say right? oh, that's what we have looked it out. we're at this at the c h today. i need to order what the united states will get out of this cost, not only for any but in the middle east and the bottom towards the arctic. that's what i was going to do this. the question about the arctics, and what should i say to the rest satisfied and for today, unless it's ready is gas reserves are sent to europe and so much more expensive
4:24 am
than the rest of the gas in europe used to get before unless peaceful. so to this restriction and the frame, the regime has no orders. the one to say that it's a good thing that the general tell us if a spot has spread, they don't know what, what is it a good thing or bad credit for them? the other side of the days. oh yeah, i mean, an interesting comment from you, the andre. i appreciate you being so forthright with us. you know, when it comes comes to the calls, they don't got an ukraine, a donald trump actually said i was always surprised. these set and he said he understands russia's concerns about nato's expansion. he actually said it was written in stone years and years ago. he was understood by every party that nato must not go into your prey and, and now look where we are today. what do you think when trunk gets into office? is there any challenges you think of ukraine joining data or even the you for that matter? if i had had never ex, how's the journey or from the beginning? it was this little bass was used for you pray to push it to towards the westward
4:25 am
and use the for any leads who sold off of the west to fight this war with them to get it as low as pleasure in solving for to. yeah. cool. so everybody knows what the deal was actually, you know, when the so do you agree to the brush or the during the week to get the most are forced out of me some term in united germany to follow the growing wall, the plato about the movies for later life, it's move out of the east, what it will move right to the board is a rush and we see frame which is was always the rushing around. we were one nation before rush and you frame, we have one version, but no, they don't move in directly to frames and use ukraine's to make and to rush. so it's constantly for conversations that come from the people around him. there are people for risha selves and see, but there are a lot of different people and find himself and his family looking into this war. and we pray as a situation that they need to stop because they understand that america is going to
4:26 am
fall. if we develop solve this one because america there are 6 to on dollars that and it isn't a bankruptcy mode. if it does not continue to stop this spending where it's funded, breakdown slowly from getting nothing from you frame is up before started to go and ask questions about your resources and resources. and we seem pretty about the west las everything. so the need to get out of this worth of as possible and find something else where they can fix their hands on a. this is what we're doing restrictions and the white house is gonna look into this. yeah, forever was in k, all. so, you know, create a problem and then you create the so called solution. i appreciate it. andre good commentary from you right there. listen to this quickly. looks like trump is kind of back tracking on his claim. so he could, and the consulate in ukraine within 24 hours that we does say he's gonna try and meet pruitt and within 6 months, do you think? i know he's waking up to reality or he was to up to mr. cool. what do you think trump still process is now regarding ukraine?
4:27 am
we have to understand the song understood, the situation that he has to say is a deep state. again, the all his and he's not only was sent in united states, whatever. so you press there are only elements because the top political, this is a pretty oh, okay. so the united states, these states, they were bought by new ones, obama, samsung, and they're working directly from single trucks. so they're going to sabotage anything they're trying to send a do you print the size of that? yeah, i already for here the default he wants pc pre before he eats looking, he lives to get out every, all the mercury. so groups out of be frame are 16 of them, are intelligent agencies working the brain right now. them out of the frenzy before we do an errors or funny. this for all the, from the west. leave. great. get them out of the frame for me, these, the diplomatic for from the us embassy there. and that is that, that's what's been rubenthal shifts and so i will support with this caused by
