the today armed forces joined our nato allies in air strikes against the serbian forces the the guy village spoke to us with them and we, we still forward the inquiry just regarding a flip race is, i mean, nation which is reinforced with the depleted uranium that has a special capacity to pay the tree from new care safety point of view. there is no radiological the or even and nothing is significant consequences. the, the symmetry seems endless. a real city of a dead where it's very easy to get lost. similar graveyards now exist in iraq and afghanistan. they may soon appear in ukraine with thousands of square kilometers of already being contaminated with deadly dust. for the next 4 and a half 1000000000 years, the,

[000:00:00;00] the are headline. stories must go and say that you training and drilled and strike an energy infrastructure in southern russia has been for to hundreds called the salt on it. sovereignty of the compressor station in question supplies gas to europe for that purpose streaming pipeline seats fire on hostage release. data between how boston is truly spelled very closely, forwarding to an are to source in the middle east. this closely following recently wrapped up for his final foreign policy speech, president biting defends his actions overseas. donald trump tiers up to over at turned a raft of his predecessors,

orders the next available office. first thing in the space is our to international. my name's use of the legal of 30 minutes of using news starts. not hungry is foreign minister, has commented on ukraine's failed attack on energy infrastructure in southern russia. on monday, the target a gas compressor station supplies increase truck stream pipeline peter c. r to say is that root is an indispensable part of central europe gas supply chain on it. security is part of like the talk is current cable is indispensable in the natural gas supply and hungry and central europe. security of energy supply is a sovereignty matter. therefore, every action that threatens the security of all energy supply must be considered an

attack against sovereignty. but we understand as a great deal of outrage and rightly so, because we understand the developments over the course of the past 72 hours suggests ukraine is in a position to put europe on edge, especially by sabotaging its sovereignty with respect to energy needs. and we understand that the ministry of defense of russia issued a statement monday, suggesting that the ukrainians did caveat on attack. and about 9 kamikaze drones were down as a result and the compress the station in southern russia, the part which essentially ties into the black sea was attacked and received minor damage and nothing major was destroyed as a result of the attack operations were not disrupted. this is according to the energy company that is currently operating the pipeline on the russian and, and we understand that this current position or these current moment, there is a great deal. that is to be said, we understand the ministry of defense of russia issued a statement providing further detail on january 11th,

2025. the key of regime in order to stop a gas supplies to european countries, attempt to do an attack using 9 aircraft type. you avi's on the infrastructure of the russian compressor station in the village of geico, the zoo and the crowd in the region which supplies gas through the tucker stream pipeline. the statement provided by the ministry of defense came on monday, stating that the attack happened on saturday. of course, we understand the past 72 hours have been quite crucial, but that's not to say that the russian authorities were not in contact with their turkish counterparts. because on sunday, the russian ministry of def, sorry, the ministry of foreign affairs issued a statement suggesting the russian 4 minutes or so like a lover of held a phone conversation met with his truck is counter parts. how come to done to discuss us as a might as pertaining to ukraine without saying anything to specifically keeping a bit vague but more diplomatic said that the 2 sides of course, discussed the need to focus on preventive actions. aimed at creating risks for energy security. and this energy security of course, is not

a matter that just pertains to russia or turkey. but many who of course, benefit from the church stream. we understand on the 1st of january, a 5 year deal between ukraine and russia came to an end. russia was adamant in 1st, a continuing that deal to ensure that energy flowed into europe. but ukraine of course, opposed it. and we also recall the north stream attack in 2022, which rendered a great deal of russian exports to germany as well as the rest of the e. u, essentially meaningless. and this of course leads to other alternatives. the blue stream and the charge stream both which run under the black sea serves not just russian or turkish and interest, but we understand that it also serves the interest of countries like hungry serbia, boston hartzog, avina, slovakia, as well as greece. this is a significance, a step. this is a significant development if we take all of this into context. and we also understand that there's been a great deal of opposition or at least the slow, but prime minister has been quite vocal in his position,

suggesting that the you create in a liter of let them is that not to someone who rooms you're begging, and black mailing western nations in the hope of extracting more military assistance to find russia. we understand that much of the motives of course, is going to be under speculation. we understand russia as a choose ukraine of sabotaging these energy deals for the past few years. however, that is also in line with reports that are coming out of military intelligence from the german side, as well as the dutch side. suggesting that over the course of the past 2 years, ukraine has to be interested. or at least starting with the idea of attacking the church stream in the black sea. and we understand, of course this was headed by the former commander in chief of ukraine. and this is of course, a significant step moving forward. peter c. r to is singled out the truck stream as a crucial energy supply route for europe. can you tell us a little more about the role. busy that a place, well, 1st and foremost, we understand the church stream was established by russian and turkish companies. there was

a great deal of the nation. we understand that the compressor se shouldn't, in sort of rush out of course, leads into the black sea and into your code. there is a receiving station. we understand that russians are to, to that point were of course committed to the project independently. and then we of course, take into consideration the lights are hungry, which of course helps further the project this from that the current moment there is a 2nd pipeline that of course distributes the energy to the state of georgia. and another one that runs through europe leads to the your opinions and we understand so to, at this get a moment is quite adamant of vocal in that position. if we had to come to the friendly pressure against the tucker stream years ago, we would now be in a very, very difficult position as a landlocked country. now we've heard a lot from leaders in europe. we've heard from russian authorities up until this point. we have not heard anything from the chargers side, so it's going to be important to see what the trucks have to say with respect to the allegations that are rising as

a result of the attack on saturday. well, head of the british heritage political party david kirk to into dar t, the very european states which have provided ukraine with aid, no themselves feeling the consequences of kids or optic actions. it's very bizarre . i mean, you know, zalinski there and keep having the people around him seemed to be biting the faith to them. i don't understand that because the e u and e u countries have collectively given a 170000000000 pounds to the regime in key evan. now they're trying to talk to often disrupt the energy supply to the very countries that have been supporting them over the last 2 or 3 years. now, i don't agree with that. i don't think that the countries west and country should have been given, giving financial military support to, to the landscape. but he's doing that now. i, i don't know what his purpose is. you would think of any,

what is sensible with one of the countries, the giving money to actually habits volume and economy. so we can get more say, i mean this, it really is just looking like someone who is facing the end of the war is military is collapsing, everything is collapsing around him and he's just lashing out the 3 major pipelines, the transit gas from russia to european countries through ukraine have been cops, you know, the supply that was being caught from the 1st of january. and now ukraine seems to be targeting the all the pipelines to go to the south of ukraine as well as the north stream, which was blowed up the one of the north stream to pipelines is intact. if that was the political well, this could be turned on very, very quickly. and gas could be coming from russia, from the north end to germany. and then that would provide more for the whole european gas infrastructure. because everything these installations including even

the, the, the gas infrastructure and pipelines in the u. k, they're willing to get, i mean, the u. k. for example, never too much gas from russia, but it's insulating. so we face less gas coming from russia. the prices of gas coming from norway, for example, increase. so turning on this pipeline, it is something that really needs to happen. and it's the sensible thing to do. why keep a pipeline off? when it can be turn, don't provide gas, the heat homes and keep businesses running because the alternative is that people freeze. um, businesses go bankrupt because someone used to tell you about know, ukraine has launched a must have missed file attack on rushes at west street and 3 on scrooge. and that's according to local officials. let's go through some of the details we have on this. have reportedly use long range. that's a comes missiles on us supplied multi launch. hi maurice systems. the regions

governor stage russian or defenses repel the attack, destroying or targets. he added no casualties have been reported. a brick true deal between is real, i'm from us is close. that's according to an r t source who told us the final draft of a cease fire on hostage release agreement is currently being reviewed. following, we sent the wrapped up talks between the 2 sides in the tardy capital. ortiz middle east correspond a brief, an option that can tell us more. it has to be no, a special announcement. she has put multiple sources in numerous reports. say that the deal between israel and her boss is closer than ever, and indeed a roman mentally sources also earlier confirmed that's 2 t the agreements that could bring hostages home. and of course, paid the way to entering the devastating conflict in gaza, which has claimed over $46000.00 lives according to local health officials,

both sides race. to finalize this though, before january 20, as president elect donald trump warned earlier i thought without resolution before he's integration. hell will break out in the middle is we send high level meetings with the participation off is really an american delegation is with the representatives from both current and incoming administration along site guitar. we, on addiction mediators, has been essential in brooklyn disagreements. we simply everybody's choice in discussions, took place in doha, on monday with final details were discussed and we heard that have mass was sent a draft proposal earlier approved by israel and telling me there's no way to for the response from the militant group, but some unconfirmed reports already said that the draft has been approved by him. boss leaders, a broad and everything now depends on how much since you are who is how much is the

fact to leader in guys on the ground. the wrong 98 captives county held in guys of we've at least 36 of them see are dead. the official numbers could be even higher. so what does this new deal involved? the 1st 40 to die stage will start with a 10 per we cease. fire is ready to force that as well. withdrawal from crowded areas and aerial strikes will be limited. importantly, to understand that israel, who maintain control of the philadelphia corey, they were alone. the guys that age of the full judge, you and they say, and will not full the withdrawal from this trip until every last advocacy is freed . and the 1st phase of mazda is said to release such a 3 is ready, hostages, civilians, women, children, and the elderly, referred to as humanitarian cases. and in return, israel will release poly. steven prisoner is also focusing on women and miners based on pre approved lease. but we do not know the exact number yet, had

a key point. anyone released by israel will not face re arrest for past defenses. however, that is deemed the heavy weights such as those with the blog on the hands will not be released to the west bank. we here, but where it to most likely to gas, where they could easily be targeted by i. d. f. a certainly have mazda demands, baby send somewhere else, 2 cats are with turkey, and this remains unclear so far how this will be sat so, so we are waiting for official announcement again on the humanitarian front, we can expect 600 trucks of age to flowing daily. to restore essential infrastructure and provide urgent relief as you remember, they hey, monitoring the situation and the strip is catastrophic. 15 months have to the beginning of the war, talks about face to will starts 2 weeks into the 1st stage and phase 2 will last

another 42 days. during the reach, remaining hostages will be freed, including is where the soldiers had israel will vent withdrawal completely from the gas. as true pan hostilities will seize hand. we hear that withdrawal process will be gradual. not a one time departure, and that's how is real, will make sure that her mouse actually implemented. so they a big deal. and the terms of the agreement, also note for say in israel will establish at boxes between its territory and the gaz. a straight to protect its southern regions, which means i have troops will be deployed along the security fence inside gaza. israel will implemented security measures as well. from the nets. are we in core either? that is a line. how that cuts the in place into 2 to the north to facilitate civilian crossings. and while these marks a significant breakthrough, of course, pressing questions were made and perhaps the most critical of all as well. this

actually and the war from us i use to retain in power, while israel will not seize facilities unless have mouse is completely removed from and his decision making rows. again, this part is not clear yet, but i have to say that note, all factions within israel support, they still finance minister and small tre can leader of a hard line nationalist party part of the time. yeah. who's call ition has been a very vocal critic labeling disagreement as a catastrophe for israel security. he has been advocating for ongoing military action against from us and more military pressure. early on monday, small afresh was confronted by relatives of his rarely hostages. who criticized. he stands on the deal and dozens of family members, many clutching photos of the missing loved ones packed. it could meet the room during the budget meeting budget session there and the emotional showdown. last that over an hour,

we saw me in tears accusing smoke for each of neglecting the $98.00 hostages, still in cafeteria to in the gaza street. however, some relatives i know to in favor of this phase approach to the hostages release, expressing concern the time is running out for their loved ones. and they say they want to see the returns all at once as they or their forces on the same boss. but again, it has to be no official announcements of law, and we still have to wait for a special confirmation from these really authorities. and from us the something else for a close, the following follows ins are taking to the streets of the romanian capital to protest. the cancellation of a 2nd run to voting in the countries presidential election. it's after an independent candidate with a pro peace on the nato message, one november's 1st ride down, according to a former european commissioner. the extraordinary and no,

let me also be repeated in the use largest economy. i told to let's wait and see what happens. and for the time being, let's keep our cool and enforced our laws in europe. we need to be aware of the risk that our laws may be circumvented. and that if they are not enforced, it could lead to interference. we did it in romania, we will obviously have to do it if necessary in germany. so alexis, all st credit. but if be wrong, can't do that. when said, well, we're willing to be that credit to us. but as basically the message from uh, from a friend to you, commissioner terry brett tells who seems to be triggered by an online chat between, you know, most and one of the candidates for the job and johnson. i a at the a, if these alice vital is fine for the top tool in next month election. now the expo to at hard cool trump ally has really gained bit of a taste for politics ever since the box of pulls the winning full state side. but is increasingly being looking beyond american souls and to be honest,

he's been trolling politicians that they things and things like quotes stupid questions. and so i sent everything how it's so true to form. he did have a few words from this. you the astounding absurdity of terry brittle as tyrants of europe, tyrant of europe. wow. but no ilan musk, the e u has no mechanism to nullify any election anywhere in e. u, not at all. what is said in the video related only to the application of the dsa and it's moderation obligations lost in translation or another fake news. well, from off a former comments, thoughts track probably feels quite possible because of course, we know that the video now has very openly and consistently facts. the alternative, such are many policy and the as the has become a bit of a politician on growth within brussels. it's been smith this fall, right? it's on the investigation for extremism in berlin. and it's supposed to dismissal with this, they say, but we're me, friday really poses is to the globe,

blessed ideology on things like well, well the policy has pledged that if it comes to power, it will stop on shipments to pray for example. and this message is gaining traction amongst significance, waves of the german public with poles, placing them at around 20 percent and david kept with the front runners of the race which card and leading a thought to one side is closing the social skills. brenton says that his statement was misunderstood. is there anything they could do to actually notify the election? well, if an off to yes, have shown us anything. it is that in this rules based on the rules are constantly changing, not even bad. we know that not everyone has to play by the so this landscape of what time and time won't be done as well, so constantly evolving. so i don't think that it's an exaggeration say that anything and everything is on the cards. especially when mistakes solve this high, we are not johnny,

this is the built biggest economy and the brought home was really do revealed of course the salon and the young desire to see that the you really are experiencing about the upcoming assert much in the same way actually, as we saw brussels very know, obviously watching the 2022 general election in a my approach is that what ever a democratic government is willing to work with us. we're working together. if they go in a difficult direction, i've spoken about time. korean poland, we have tools, i'm not a european citizen, but i think if i was, i would sense in both of onto land and i brought holes was really an onset content, not just an option of suffering to you, but also the will of the very people that they claim, at least to rep, present really concerning and such get the remaining and election last year. set a precedent for these kind of actions. can you take us through the situation in the balkans? well,

i think 50 events in bucharest at the end of last year at the very soonest. edge of course, to brussels, was you'll recall that nato critic college will. jessica secured victory in the 1st round of the elections. he'd upset to clinch the presidency to when suddenly it was decided that russia had interest. se advise social media. the results were just a note, and the whole process will be re run. it's important to note that no evidence has yet been provided to support any of those met thing claims. and in fact, an investigation by a local outlet has revealed that it was actually another political briefing in this new nation, the national liberal policy, which hired a 5 to launch a tech top campaign promotes a particular hash tag. and it just ended up backfiring in georgia. goes to eva instead, but still has his attic total time being reinstated. no,

of course not meeting him. the suspect itself used to essentially, this is a formalized kuta taught. the rule of law is in an induced coma and just as subordinated to political orders has practically lost its essence, it is no longer justice. it obeys the orders. the corrupt system in romania showed its true faced by making an impact with the devil. so taken altogether, a passing does much one call and help, but notice this selective approach when it comes to respecting the very bedrock of course of democracy and frustration on this issue is actually grubbing among member states. when $10000000.00 us dollars was a legally channel to the hon, gary and left for the 2022 election campaign leads in brussels state, silent when the us embassy in budapest started distributing funding to left with media and eats and brussels. stayed silent when the hungarian parliament adopted the sovereignty protection law to prevent such further interference, the european commission sued hungry,

and it only seems inevitable that the more people i brought home go round saying the things that they all sang, the move that trusted institutions and governments of pulls will be on the mind because instances like this really cost out over whom exactly will these bureaucrats. so rep presenting and all that preaching about democracy. well, if you don't live by the values that you preach, then you'll nothing but a coma and precedent like you will use the word preston precedent. it's a very dangerous thing because of the risk of sounding a dramatic. it really is just a skipping a halt from counseling, one election to counseling election berlin parliament member for the alternative for germany party dinner. linda men say's that citizens will not tolerate the potential cancellation of elections and the f. these wide support base will be heard. the system in the cell is

a novice because they know they have d one to stop uh, to transfer a minutes off a year or to a wizard, plumber, drummond, tex pay us. we say, if we get them po and drum and maybe it with the form that you will be in the unit, i'm going to be only one. you will be in the co nomic union or not the dictatorship of blizzard and the you. it'll be in the commission. the former commissioner is not the only one who is set to be one to can. so the voting is the same, said the drum and the president stein my i, he said about the 2 weeks ago. so it's similar. we've similar were upset in germany . my take happens the same, the same as the manual after the elections. but in fact, david really happened in germany. i mean, you know, so people, they go into a street and it shows the airport as because they have the, you know, is a blazing we are all but 20 percent. that last the announcement was 22

percent. and i 2nd gone to the election day and said, well maybe it will be $25.00. why even more percent? and they have such a big good amount of people vote for the budget. it will be very difficult to get and cancel the, the launching the going u. s. president has given his final foreign policy speech and the white house saturated with self praise for his performance. over 40 years, joe biden said he leaves office with america stronger globally, and took a dig of washington's adversary's. and now, america is more capable and i would argue better prepared, and we've been a long, long time, all our competitors and adversaries. refresh these stiff edwards as we have the windows are back because of all of you this what we're heading into and over the next administration, that's where

a handed american broadcaster and political level is garlan nixon told me that in his view, ju biden's, tenure was as bob, as it gets, here's why. personally, i rent joe biden as not just the worst president this united the united states has ever seen. but if you take the 10 worst president and piled them altogether, divide is worse than the entire pile. this is legacy is one of ruins, economic ruin for the country, inflation in a way that this country had never seen before. bringing the world to the edge of an extinction level nuclear event. the print conflict as overshadowed a loss of his leadership, his time in charge, he said, put, and had failed to achieve any of his strategic objectives. russia is struggling on the pop up and he went on for quite a while. we can just take a brief listen, garland, we help you create and stop food. and now your retreat, 3 years later, food has failed to achieve any of the strategic objectives. he has failed as far as

to subjugate ukraine. fail to break the break the unity of nato and failed to make large territorial gauge. or there's more to do. we can walk away with rallies, 50 nations, stand with ukraine, not just in europe for the 1st, for the 1st time in asia as well. those countries, you know, what happens ukraine matters to them as well. it very spirited, he held it together, i'll give it to him on that. but given the facts on the broad, will anyone really take his plains? that mosque was losing the war seriously. know, and if you notice the play with words that vladimir prudent focused, there's no such countries rushed here to the neo cons. they only say by them you're putting but that president put and didn't achieve his objectives. but what they do is they personally assigned the objectives that vladimir proven wanted, and then they say they say by and they put, wanted to take care of the 1st dates and he didn't do it therefore,

and they go forth with someone forward with some 3rd premise. and i would argue that the countries in asia and around the world have learned from ukraine, they, they've learned that the united states, the neo cons, the fascist, as i call that are in a significant position of power. and the leadership of this country had been for some years that they will utilize your country for cannon fodder, and they will walk away and leave you dead, impoverished and, and destroyed. and i think the world and other countries are learning exactly what happens by looking at ukraine when you go along with these lunatics. tony blinking, and vitamin single di fee withdrawal from afghanistan as an achievement. we can just take a quick listen again to what was said across report to the american people. for the 1st president a decade, who's not leaving a warrant, afghanistan to success, or got been live during obama by ministration. the primary objective of war had

been accomplished. and i believe are going forward from or the threat of all kind of would no longer be emanating from afghanistan from elsewhere. right. and so we not need to stations sizable number american forces in afghanistan. i think if i was head of communications in the white house, i would have mentioned to, to him quietly, maybe maybe see this one like when it comes to afghanistan. well, 2 things. number one, he said that the primary objective was accomplished, but we never really knew what the primary objective is. i s'pose i suspect it was transferring the ex tremendous amount of money from the pockets of the american taxpayers into the coffers of the military industrial complex. if that was the primary objective with no doubt, it was a significant part of it. they were successful, they are. so i think joe biden has been a horrible president and my that yet politically, he has destroyed his own party, completely wiped out his party. they are reeling and they have, they've lost the supreme court, they lost the house, they lost the senate,
