the, the, the united states does not need any competitor in any areas, starting with energy, where they give the go ahead to carry out the terrorist activities to destroy the basis of the energy wellbeing of the european union. breaking news here on our team rushes tough diplomat lashes out at the us for using terror tactics for political game points to sabotage of the north stream pipeline and 2022 and attacks on the turks stream pipeline, which occurred last weekend the, the outgoing you as president claims is doing everything to make it guys a ceasefire. deal possible as well as relentless strikes on the enclave. kill at least 6 more palestinians. the

live in moscow. you're watching r t international. i'm rachel ruble. we begin our program with breaking news. russia's top diplomat circuit law prop has slammed to the us during his annual press conference for using tara tactics to achieve political gain. put him in as a bus of times have changed dramatically in the last 30 to 35 years. opposition to weston dick tats has already emerged no longer in the face of the soviet union, but in the face of emerging new economies, financial centers in china, india, and across asia, rapidly developing economically successful associations in all regions of the global south. more correctly, the world's majority already has a new reality. there are already strong competitors who want to compete on a slate in economics, finance, and sports. but the west, or at least it's current leads, already lost inertia while being unable to move past the total superiority,

the so called end of history. and so they slide down a ramp while trying to block it. they need to make way for competitors everywhere, including economics. but the united states does not need any competitor in any area, starting with energy, where they give the go ahead to carry out terrorist activities to destroy the basis of the energy wellbeing of the european union. they now insight that ukrainian clients to take out the tuck stream gas pipeline just like north street. and there are lots of sanctions implemented against china even against its allies, without blinking sanctions are imposed as soon as there is the slightest fear that they will produce something cheaper somewhere and will promote it more effectively to international markets than american manufacturers do. use the term stream cord or is becoming even more vital energy source for hungary and other central european nations. effectively replacing the recently shuddered. ukrainian root for russian

gas moscow's defense ministry. detailed the drawing to to get a statement issued on monday, in gary and foreign minister has slammed kia, saying the strike is a blow to the country. sovereignty in the church stream pipeline is indispensable in the natural gas supply in hungry and central europe. security of energy supply as a sovereignty matter. therefore, every action that threatens the security of our energy supply must be considered an attack against sovereignty. as lensky has told the slovak leader to come to key after prime minister robert pizza, invited him to engage and talks over ukraine's refusal to extend a deal allowing russian gas to transit's to the u. k. but the slovak prime minister rubber feeds over to use the invitation according to the deputy speaker, parliament. here's a look at his open letter to president zalinski. gosh, it was an which is us type of your decision to stop the transitive gas through ukraine. just the lock. yes. and so either recipients is causing significant harm

to ukraine itself. this the voc. yeah. and in particular to the european union. and it provokes a variety of reactions which is not conducive to either by electro. all moved to actual relations, as the highest representative of the slow book executive allow me to invite you to negotiation towards the earliest possible opportunity, understanding the demands of your agenda. so this as a slovak parliamentary delegation has arrived in moscow for tox cooperation, and the energy sector is said to be at the top of the agenda, deputy speaker of the silver parliament to bar gosh par, who is among the members of the delegation, told us that so let's give replied in an offensive tone to robert keeps those letter while the decision to cut the transit of russian gas won't benefit anyone. to the, to this decision is made at the level of president's a lensky and is also not in the interest of ukraine. ukraine is losing a 1000000000 euros because of this problem because of transit fees to we see this

as a purely political decision that will not harm the russian federation, but will harm e u. member states and their economies. the e. u has adopted several packages of sanctions and they have affected our standard of living, not the standard of living of people in russia. and we would like this to stop. there are also voices in other member states that these senseless sanctions are damaging our economies. a cubic meter of gas and the e. u is 4 times more expensive than, for example, in the us. this is not a normal situation. prime minister fits so, send a letter to the lensky inviting him to further negotiations, and in response, he received some words that were quite offensive. i don't think that was worthy of a president of any country, but he certainly has no place in modern europe in the modern world. perhaps no one would want to accept that kind of ukraine into the you, if the you survives at all, because the decisions that are made there are contrary to the interest of the e. u. member states. and as i mentioned at the top of the program survey lab, ralph has just wrapped up his annual press conference where he touched on

a number of subjects, right? we can cross live now to our, to political, corresponding, eager, picking off. so either guard, tell us, please, what more did the russian rest has popped up on that have to talk about as well. it was quite a substantial press conference that last set about 2 and a half hours. so quite a lot of issues. we're talked about energy security, european energy security, which starts to find as well, especially in lights, off the recent ukrainian attack on parts of the sort stream infrastructure on russian territory. but uh, you know, foreign minister elaborate says the green doesn't do anything without washington's approval. and this is sort of like the style now for he says, for the leading democratic administration to try to make life as difficult as possible for the, the next administration. and of course, meaning donald trump's administration, which is almost set to come into the white house and for him to officially become

the next president of the united states. now all of this is being talked about in the context of the multiple, the world, which both for municipal lab are often worked as presidents, lagging of food and then their partners and allies have all been talking about about its creation well now. so you'll have real says that it's been completed, it's been constructed, it's here and past the new reality, russia and it's close as allies, especially within bricks, china and brazil. india, south africa has been very supportive about the idea of the new multiple, the world. and the level says that that's shared by their partners in the global south as well. and like in the west, which isn't very keen on giving more influence to emerging powers than level of says that a great example off of that approach is the situation around the need to reform the un security council. just put on the computer and use with us. so we have repeatedly said that how is like india and brazil. my old accounts have long does

that have to be permanent members of the security council, but an appropriate decision is also needed for african permanent membership. while on the other hand, the west is trying again to ruin this process by hook or by crook to secure a preferential positions for itself by any means. out of 15 proposed permanent members, 6 of back to buy america. this includes germany in japan, but they do not have any independent voices in world politics. they blindly and immediately followed the united states. and even when the us infringes on them directly, well they don't dare make a sound. so this is on fab. here's the west already wants to fill 6 out of 15 proposed seats. so yeah, but enough is enough to do that. basically for minnesota lab rough says that in this situation around the un security council is another example of the failure of the euro atlantic security architecture, which moscow and his allies are also calling for. they need to be improved, rebuilt, and be based on your age and security. the ego are just

a few days away now from donald trump taking the office again in the us and roll on pins and needles here over um he plans to do about the conflict, a new crane. what a lot of them have to say about that, or you know, frankly by what i've heard here, it doesn't mean we've seen that. so the lab roughly is quite optimistic about the whole situation with donald trump coming back and especially about what he's been saying about ukraine, but elaborate says that it is definitely a positive signal that both trump and many members of his team have been claiming that they really want to see the conflict and in the near future. uh, he says also that it seems that the understands the uh, the reasons behind the, the special meals for the operation, which is also a positive sign. but leverage says that the most important thing now is to actually wait and uh,

and see the donald trump officially become the next president of the united states and then see what happens with the present to them. when donald trump becomes president and finally formulates his position on ukraine, then of course we will study it closely. everything that is being said now is being said in preparation for entering office. everything that has been discussed over the past year has several aspects. firstly, the very fact that people have started mentioning the realities on the ground more probably deserves to be welcomed. but still, yes, mr. bolts and trump have already mentioned the root cause of the conflict in terms of tracking the key of regime into nato. contrary to the soviet russian american agreements, this isn't the honest admissions that nato members were lying and the fact that this is the root cause. finally, after all, many months or even 2 years of reminders is now fixed in the american narrative as they say. so we will wait for specific initiatives or president putin has repeatedly said that he is ready to meet. but so far there have been no such

proposals. so then president trump said that post and wants to meet and i think they should meet. but 1st, he needs to take office for your roles. still, frankly, i'm not surprised why it's so difficult for moscow to trust. uh, washington and the west in general, especially when it comes to ukraine. that's why i completely agree with the foreign minister that there's so much speculation right now around all these statements coming out of donald trump's team and about the possible phone call with vladimir food and even a possible one on one meeting. but we know that moscow hasn't been saying that they still haven't been contacted about it. so a lot of right now is just words. let's wait for donald trump to officially become the president again. and besides ukraine, there's also the middle east, in particular, syria given the recent events, what was russia's take while the foreign minister is also being quite subtle about

a t 's saying that russia is closely watching and monitoring the situation, the developing situation there in syria, it still has a diplomatic presence in the country, it still has military presence in the country. and it's looking at how things are going to develop a level of says that what's happened. there was the results of long running deep processes, including the need and demand for certain changes in the country, which a level of says that moscow has been selling now. former president, a thought about and apparently which he ignored, but it looks like now moscow is keen on working more closely with turkey, iran and china. when it comes to syria, with a new code, it was because we are not leaving the middle east. there was a slow down of a political process and probably there was a temptation not to change anything. we thought that was wrong, and we pushed the syrian leadership in every possible way to ensure that the

constitutional committee, which was created that the initiative of russia could resume its work. but the leadership in damascus was not ego. so i will say that it worked. and reached some kind of agreement and that could only be in agreement on the division of power to share power with opposition groups of course, not terrorist ones. this was a delay. and this delay was accompanied by a worsening of social problem. lot. the absolutely ugly sanctions of the united states was stifling the syrian economy. the eastern part, the richest in oil, the most of the tile was occupied in remains occupied by the united states. extracting results is to finance separate his tendencies in northeast and syria. we propose to solve those problems, to our colleagues from the kurdish organizations at that time to help them build bridges with the central government. they weren't very eager. they thought that since the americans would that they would always be there and they will create their own cause. the state that we do not, we explained to them that took i, and iraq will never allow the creation of a cody state so full. this led to the creation of

a vacuum and such an explosion occurred in the vacuum. we must accept reality, then you come to them is definitely some uh, interesting analysis about the, the sort of under the surface stuff which happens there in the middle east. i found out quite interesting to comments from the foreign minister of this was the press conference about the main events and i guess the results of the 2 in 2024. but hey, this is the new years now. and one of the biggest to events i guess of the past year was the re election of donald trump. and that is going to come into effect very, very soon. and we'll see just um, i'm gonna have to agree with the 4 minutes. so let's just see what happens next. all right, so we'll wait and see our t political corresponding egret. this cannot be here. thank you. so the goal of rex membership is to benefit in the nations that's according to m. p. amelia, on grainy who welcome to to carter's integration into the blog with the island

state, officially becoming the 1st to southeast asian nation to join the group at status as one of the most populous countries in the world means breaks and now includes almost half the globe here's the lawmaker herself explaining the benefits of the country's new foreign policy pass. it's a critical moment for our country, becoming part of the exports in the new show and in the leak with us. tom underwood most started make economies such as exist, drysdale, india, russia, troy, 9 south africa, be immediate attempted to meet. we now can force the full abrasions with fellow members and get stronger access to expand it. a markets, an opportunity this for trade and investment with them, which is crucial to our feeling with those and uh, the 1st suffice our diversify our economics. another key point for indonesia in full month is that we can stick for funding from the new development

bank, which brake has a sub the lease uh, focuses on the bang the uh, the current phase, pre release of getting an issue with our construct such yours on suspend a boat full of months, it means we can stress attractive project that improve connected safety and quality of life for our people. moreover, uh, on uh, to political level, this membership amplifies indonesia, voice on the global stage. it is, it is a boat and shooting over positions to remain a 2 player in shipping the future of the global orders. so break has been, i feel, getting for, for the reform get information out in the sheets to make the more e c and higher. yeah, especially for developing nations in its alliance with this period of bundle that

we initiated a long time ago. joining rich doesn't mean aligning with what's right. it's about expanding our partnership and strengthening our positioning, a requisition a globally. so in this context, hello sized join me, o e c, d a v at these in the g 20. i also believe that big foot are playing 10 in the knees. yes. the same. what questions are now being asked if israel is serious about making peace with palestine? sees for our talks have during don for more than a year. some sources including r o. now say the deal is finally on the horizon following complicated talk. some guitar ortiz, middle east bureau chief, maria, from ocean that has more, there are multiple reports about to looming deal with various sources saying it's closer than ever. but is this the 1st time? not really, these really public has heard these promises for months only to see each attempt

fail. washington has pointed to him, mazda and often to israel, has while for not agreeing to the terms. eventually this deal could bring hostages home and maybe even help and the different states in conflict with willis. once again, it's very cautious. optimism plus these head for reports, emerged on the day of preston by the stairwell speech, where he said the deal was on the verge. of happening, could they just be wishful thinking from a leader about to leave office and he's administration? let's take a listen. i'm aware of retreat is relying on boss or in the break or proposal laid out in detail months ago. finally coming to fruition. i spoke to prime minister treasure yesterday. i spoke to a mirror cutter. today. i look forward to speaking with presidency. she soon,

the pressing heart closes. i haven't stood at this podium and said anything particularly optimistic about a hostage deal with quite some time. and that's because we haven't been in the position that i find, i think we are in today. why is that? it's because of the gaps of fundamentally narrow down the key issues. well, both sides crumbled, to finalize the deal before january 20 off to president elect donald trump war and stuff if there was no do before he's integration, all hell will break out in the middle east. and if the do does materialize, base time, it's these warnings rather than apply to the hostages that will have driven it in those us, which is our back. i don't want to argue negotiation. and then i'd back by the time i get into office all hell will break out in the middle east and it will not be good for i'm us and it will not be good frankly, for anyone all hell will break out. i don't have to say anymore, but that's what it is. and they should have given them back along that they should

have never taken the car and take the rot, 90 age captain's health and gaza with a least fussy full, confirmed dad. according to the idea. and this leaves 64 applique, these potentially alive, waiting to be rescued. hostages are set to be released in phases that will take at least another 2 months with israel maintaining its presence and goes until every last epic. t is freed. the 1st phase less than $42.00 days begins with a temporary cease fire during this time. her natural release. such a 3 is really hostages, women and children, and the elderly, classified as humanitarian cases in which her niece, real will release palestinian prisoners, also prioritize in women and miners. while exec numbers are confirmed, so far, they had of the poly student prisoners club, has earlier stated that the lease includes $1000.00 and detainees including women, children, and one to visitors,

as well as about 2 hundreds serving live sentences. the next phase, another $42.00 days, will focus on free the remaining hostages, including soldiers. and during this time, israel will start gradually pulling out of gas. if it's only equinox holes up, its end of the deal, the final stage will focus on rebuilding gaza with israel eventually withdrawing completely now. well, this is a big breakthrough. there was one major question will, is, and the why. well, the reaction from families is actually mixed. some relieved and hopeful of to wait and for so long. but many offers tweeted with this phased approach stacy, are those slated for release in later stages may never come home if they live and fails. for example, the families are feeling at on ease and not understanding exactly what's going on. we're not getting any guidance yet from the government of

as well. understanding if it is a deal for all the hostages. was it just a partial deal? that there is no confidence. now this deal that is starting today with a number of passages will actually continue to a deal that will have a 2nd stage last thoughts stage. meanwhile, a growing number was really solved or is a breaking the silence on the 15 months conflict in gaza. some of refusing to, sir, saying they witnessed or took part in actions that crossed ethnic lines. let's hear from them when you're burning down the house. when you're doing something very severe for absolutely no reason, then that's the time when i have to say, i'm not willing to participate. soldiers who served during this war, signed a letter saying we're, we're not gonna, we're not gonna play along with the same anymore. and enough is enough enough,

enough manipulation, political manipulation of the, of this war, we're not going to be bonds in your war anymore, and we're raising our voice while again, it seems this long a way to break free deal. if it happens this time comes too late. for many, the damage is already done. many hostages have died and over 46000 gallons, including thousands of children have lost their lives. and this leads to the question, could this have happened sooner than with only days before biden leaves office? the main stream media is throwing them under the bus over the guys a war. cbs news is there to interviews with former us administration officials to expose and direct links between washington's arm supplies, to israel, and the mass killing of civilians by the ideas. fragments of us bombs next to massacres of, of, to mostly children and that's the devastation it's been. overwhelmingly,

children be as rarely as we're using those bonds in some instances to target one or 2 individuals in densely packed areas. what is happening and gaza would not be able to happen without us arms. that's without a doubt. so the message that prime minister netanyahu received is that he was on the one in the driver's seat. and he was controlling this and us support was going to be there and she could take it for grant. when you tried to speak out vocalize what you saw happening in gaza. you feel like you were told to shut off? yes, i would show images of children that were starved to death. in one incident i was basically paraded. don't put that image in there. we don't want to see it. we don't want to see that the children are starving to death. the media report suggest american made aircraft shells, and bombs have been widely used by the idea of to commit war crimes and gaza. there are at least 20 cases documented by human rights organizations,

when us supplied weapons were involved in the attacks that killed thousands of civilians. since the war broke out in 2023 journalists had been drilling the us state department about the dudley exports. but the responses are usually elusive. there have been strikes if it costs, but those other facilities universities in those cases and often and in some cases . yeah, us weapons are actually involved in, i strike spot. you've been on pretty unable and a lot of those cases the say definitively, what happens when you get to a making assessments about strikes and gaza? it's not just always who conducted the strike, but whether the striker ultimately was after a legitimate military target or not working, using the american working you 39, whatever. you have any kind of in the middle of the idea of speak to their investigation, including i'm at peace, i'm asking you about this, the u. s. weapon. as far as you know, again it is, it is not for, for us to speak to,

we can't speak to individual weapons load outs to is really aircraft. so i will let the audio speak to their investigation findings and indicate in including anything that they have to share about what weapons where he is. american historian uncovered action magazine editor, jeremy cruz morabe says us media is now scrambling to realign with the reality on the ground in gaza. well, there has been a ship, a general shift and reporting. i mean, these rallies have gone so far and their conduct is so brutal that the mainstream media, which for years i think really suppressed the truth about the brutal is really occupation of guys on the west bank. had to report a, you know, certain facts that were coming to lights, and that's led to major shift in public opinion against these railways. so in the way they have to respond to do to sustain any kind of credibility among the populace. the media, a lot of them are pro democratic party,

so maybe pro republicans, but they lost a ton of credibility among the public. so, so to maintain a viable business entity where people watch them that have to report some of the truth that people know that the reality of the atrocities you know cannot be ignored. and i need to also, i think we live now in the age of social media so, so much as report and a lot of the young people, you know, get their news off social media. so they, they saw what's going on for a long time. and again, for the media, you know, they are businesses, they're trying to attract viewers, and to track young people who know what's going on and sees on social media. if they see something completely opposite on cnn or fox dealt they'll, they'll never watch it. so joe biden has delivered a self pen during a dress and his final foreign policy speech before leaving the presidential office . next week, the democrat claimed the incoming republican leadership will be able to capitalize

on his legacy, which has actually been mired by failures and seemingly endless wars. but even so, it's clear, especially leaving the next administration was a very strong and the play relieving. now, in america, more french and stronger alliances is adversaries are weaker and under pressure of america. the once again is leaving your 9 ink cartridge, setting the agenda for you and others together behind our plans. and just, well, just to remind you, biden's presidency has saying the us national debt gross right double. while the countries global economy share has shrunk to a historic low, he also failed to display strong leadership through state side. disaster is including toxic chemical spills in ohio. the hurricanes that left hundreds homeless and devastating wild fires that are still ravaging southern california. we got

reaction to by themself, indulge to speech from american broadcaster and political analysts. garland nixon. i rank 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, joe biden is worse than the entire pile. this is legacy is one of the 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. so i think joe biden has been a horrible president and might not yet, politically, he has destroyed his own party, completely wiped out his party. they are reeling and they have, they bought the supreme court, they lost the house, they lost the senate, they lost the white house, joe biden has obliterated his own party. i can't see any segment of his a presidency that has been anything other than an unmitigated disaster. all right,

do stay with us here on our 10 on an international. i'm back with much more news in about half an hour. i'll see you then bye. the the good. good. i think goes on there. that's good. yeah. you're good. yeah. i think we took the same glass that the biggest truck to hit my thank. yeah i was i target here. see i baby. if you can say the desk crowds, that's why i bed nato offices who made this video.
