wells, the parts we choose to look so common ground the the breaking news israel relates the 200 pallets to the end of prisoners of following the return of for id of soldiers released by hamas as part of the ongoing a ceasefire agreements. the 4 is rarely soldiers and mos release as are in good condition, according to the idea of contrary to earlier claims from its really officials salaries. finalizes preparations for sunday's presidential votes while as a foreign ministry warrant that the west has already tried to meddle in the electoral process. and donald trump's 1st week and office on settles latin america, we take a closer look at what's driving washington's so called back yard. ever closer to russia, the

are watching r t international live in the russian capital. i'm rachel ruble. we begin with breaking news as a prisoner exchange between israel and how mazda is underway. as part of the ceasefire agreement, 200 palestinian captives have left and is really prison and are making their way to the west bank. among them are 121 who have have been serving life sentences and 79 with lengthy jail terms. according to the palestinian prisoners office, it added that 70 of those with live terms will be the ported from palestinian territories after their arrival. and a mazda is already handed over for is ready hostages to the red cross. the women have arrived in are israel and will undergo physical and mental health assessments as an army base near the board before taken before being taken to a hospital,

a fight. we can cross live now to our t contributor robbie berman robbie, tell us more about this exchange that's taking place today. so i'm here and tell of it hoster square, which is the epa center for is really protest to free the hostages. they've been in the hostage for more than 470 days, i think is that 476. and this morning, this place was filled with thousands of people flapping, cheering, stinging, dancing, just ecstatic steps for hostages for as really, soldiers. where are these, mary? all bog, 19 years old. corinne diarrhea, 20 years old, and the good bow. a 20 years old, and nama levy, 20 years old. they were released in pretty good health. they have now land. they are just moments ago at dylan's and hospitals. in tell of it, let's see what the prime minister and the foreign minister have to say about this hostage release. we've obviously seen the reports that am awesome, has committed sexual violence. they've committed rape. we have no reason at all to

doubt. those reports a month is not speaking on behalf of the move, slim word, and we are asking you to condemn the sexual violence primes this, these volumes committed in the name of the most of them religion. the hostages will not health in reasonable conditions, as some have clipped cynically claimed children were seriously abused. yes, so it seems these the goal she ations did not go without a hiccup or a natural ality. are bill you who did a 29 year old woman who is a civilian who was kidnapped, was supposed to be released today and she wasn't. and as a result, she's role is not letting the palestinians cross and it started him car door to go back north from us has promised to try to release or during the course of the week . so the palestinians can go back north and they claim that she was being held by another,

as long as built in groups who hadn't refused the tool now to release. or let's see what the idea of spokesperson has to say about that. how mos failed to meet its obligations to 1st release is rarely female civilian hostages, sparks of agreement. we appreciate and thank the efforts of all the international mediators united states guitar in egypt, and we expect them to make sure come on stands in accordance with the agreement. it seems also there's a little bit of sad, disobey error because it seems like the dba style me, those beautiful little red headed babies and seems like they're not on the list to be released, which is kind of applying that they are no longer alive. but the that is made people are just happy that for steam. 3 all soldiers have been released and it is a nightmare is ended for them. and people here are singing and rejoicing. this is robbie berman from television. all right, our take contributor robin berman, thank you. well, despite the agree to see as far the idea of continues to operates in the gaza strip,

it's justified these actions by claiming that it's only eliminating it. threats to the jewish state of the video circulating on line from quarterly shows is rarely tangs opening fire on a group of palestinians in the southern city of rossa. the idea of has warned it will take necessary actions if approached on friday, palestinians gathered inside the damage to mosques, all across the enclave for the 1st pair services. since the truth kicked him, children were seen climbing through the collapse minarets of new era refugee camp as worshippers in con eunice prayed among the ruins of their homes. in the last year alone, idea of the attacks have destroyed $800.00 of gods as mosques. that's according to local authorities. well, god says past recovery might be further jeopardized by israel's decision to close

the un relief and works agency which many palestinian refugee is depend on both in the enclave and in the west bank. and right has been told to a band and is jerusalem location by january 30th. the band follows accusations that some of its members are affiliated with, some us or the palestinian jihad. the agencies general commissioner says this step further undermines the already fragile cease fire. preventing unable to operate might sabotaged the gods a cease fire failing once again, hopes of people who have gone through on speak of both suffering only in the 1st 3 days of the ceasefire on what brought in food for a 1000000 people. the ceasefire is a window of hope. the work of honor law must continue in gaza. plaza across the occupied palestinian territory to the owner. well, by itself is there what the mission of the flight of the palestinian peak? it's a remind daily reminder to the world that there are millions of past city and the

refugees that now the white, according to the united nation resolutions, according to the international, have the right to return to their homes. but this data is really prohibits them by force. terror violets. not so israel with the, with the, with the fashion. so premises mentality built on the 3 in 4000 year old tax does not allow for this the agency to continue. not only it has issue oh that is outside it's jurisdiction of it's a mess. it goes this blocks pertains to the occupied territories of 1967 jerusalem . the rest of the rep, the west bank and gaza, which is outside the sovereignty of the state of israel under, was suffers not only because of this law, although it has been submitted to re target and not only to the siege and

preventing otherwise from working. not by resting on or why not by the smearing campaigns that are led by israel and its affiliates, and hopeless partners in the general side in gaza. but also by direct is price to it's a headquarters by the, by snipers killing its workers and, and, and gall and tiers, bike doing but every possible way its humanitarian operation, israel to its genocide, talking to an owner. what and other practices is bringing the whole world war to framework of operating where beach form and able can simply do destroy commit genocide, actually cleansing up with that in a way shape they, they want because they simply dan, the presidential elections in belarus are on sunday but as people get ready

to head to the pools, there are concerns over interference from abroad. the foreign ministry in minutes has accused brussels of waiting into its sovereign affairs and of already lane the ground to discredit the results. if the wrong candidate wins, one of the hot topics of recent days is the participation of the international observers and the assessments made by the you in the face of the european parliament and the u. x. darnell relation service and by the individual parliaments of our neighbors, lexia and poland. the tax of the relevant decisions on non recognition of the elections have already been published. this is of course, a direct interference in our internal issues and attempt to put pressure on our voters and the distortion of the electoral processes that are currently underway. full. it's not very big secret that the european union has prepared the statements on the elections in billers, how well in advance so well before the process even began happening. now be a safe and sick condemns. and that does not recognize the results of the voltage,

just like it's been happening for many, many years here in this country. denouncing the ongoing, longstanding grave violations of human rights and democratic principles. inbound a ruse which have further intensified in the run up to the so called presidential election on january 26 parliament of the e u. it's member states and the international community not to recognize the legitimacy of incumbent dictate to exxon de luca shan co as president of to the vote. meanwhile, members of the election commission of villa rose began to receive threats. and this is obviously a violation of electrical sovereignty and that's according to the chairman of the central election. the commission here and below roost, i've seen, is read information about the private lives and personal data, or for more than 10000 locals who work as observers. and the commission members,

the ring is this presidential election. so one of the big question here is, uh, where is the white house? where is washington the don't as well? washington has made a march here as well by denouncing the elections and build routes which are shipped to and the funds back here though. uh, the united states, state departments village. it's blinking. so statements on non recognition of the presidential election and deliveries from its official website. it's no longer there. check it out. the routes has certainly reacted very sharply to the european and us statements, according to both the central election committee and the countries. 4 in ministry as well as the presidential elections in bella, roosts are taking place in the interests of our people in the interest of our country. and no one will be allowed to interfere with our sovereign right to hold elections in accordance with our legislation for inside seated group put on at the

initiative of a group of engaged deputies, a debate on the draft resolution of the european parliament regarding the elections and the republic of bella roost is planned already at this stage. it is obvious that the project is a gross interference in the electoral process of a sovereign state has nothing to do with the real state of affairs, and is designed to put pressure on the free expression of the will of bella. russian citizens elections in bella roost have just begun, and everything has already been condemned and not recognized by europe. this is unacceptable to sovereign bella roost. go easy. all right, but we have the best thing that a little section from the paper written by the parliamentarians. how's that being any office steps, any rumblings to try and well as veterans as discredit the upcoming election? well, according to the european union, biller russian elections are at sole sharing something they've been saying for years. and it's and nothing you take a listen to this folks 1st and on for an affair from the you need to paper. this is

an exercise that is totally on democratic. these elections are a total sham. it is not elections if you already know who is going to when we are calling on the authorities to release all people facing repression. when it comes to our support for the bell. a reason people, we have adopted a package of 30000000 euros in support of the civil society. this brings our total use support to 170000000 euro is mobilized since 2020. meanwhile, as bids of also economic forum, svetlana is here on oscar who flooded the country ass for uh, well a revolution or sort of a might done in minutes in order to use bill or bruce to mind this, we can post it now. this perfectly summarizes and shows what simpler bruce means to people like to, i know skip nothing but to bargain and ship and upon to intimidates boots and, and to handle skies presence in the doubles as an educator. hand itself to take a lesson on the loose, not only as a problem,

but there's an opportunity to put pressure on fortune as well. because bill arose with our consolidated society that does the price not yes, with the concepts refreshes, but it is the weakest points for fortune is the weakest, gentle chain, you know, for food so. so through help in the sense to gain our culture back, you know, to, to attend democracy in the builder. was it to be the biggest sanctions on fortune era? now in addition to the elections, the west also wanted to undermine the attacks. that is 5 minutes remains alexander vol footage, who is the secretary of republics. a security council said that's a military sabotage. training for radicals is currently underway in ukraine, and a special sensor has also been set off in poland in order to free minutes since now their task to capture boarder regence of the ruse with the help of miller russian

ex phoebus. now this show that sold the forces of the european union are focused on weakening the russian federation and its allies through anything they can even through peoples elections. vladimir putin says the conflict a new crane could have been avoided at the 2020 us presidential election had not been quote, stolen from donald trump. a suit. and because the pressure has never refused to have contacts with the us administration. and it is not our fault of the previous administration refuse these contacts with the current you as president. i've always had business like, exclusively business like, but at the same time, pragmatic relations. and for us being, i would say, i cannot but agree with from that if he's been elected president, if his victory had not been stolen from him in 2020, then perhaps they would not have been the crisis in ukraine to the rose back in 2022, the russian president also weighed in on his us counterparts,

risk and threats to impose new sanctions on moscow. if it doesn't play ball with kias, considering the decision, what actually it's like toward damage on washington itself. it and thinks the move is unlikely. he also questions the very prospect of talks with the train for as long as it's ban on negotiation with the gremlins leadership remains in place and used to shoot global usually with the current head of the regime in see if, when he was still a fairly legitimate head of state issued a decree binding negotiations, how can negotiations be resumed? now, if that band, if negotiations begin within the current regulatory framework, they will be strictly speaking a legitimate. and this means that the results of these negotiations can also be declared illegitimate. return regime in kia, of excuse the simplicity of expression is happily going up hundreds of millions of dollars, but it is in no hurry to follow the instructions and meet sponsors. and we know that such instructions exist to cancel the decree finding negotiations. but i think

that in the end, as you pay the money to still force, keep to do this until this decree is cancelled. is quite difficult to talk about the fact that they can be solved data and most importantly, finished properly. just nevertheless, our signals from both the white house and the kremlin that talks are imminence. and they seem to be putting key of on edge in response to all these rumors. bottom are zalinski has suggested donald trump will only end up being manipulated by moscow. pretty sure hold a briefing today. there are a few questions, the report a specifically from the head of the foreign intelligence service regarding military potential and pollutants readiness to continue the war while manipulating world leaders come on in particular. so many of the 6 to exploit the us presidents desire to achieve peace. i'm glad i am confident that no russian manipulations will succeed any longer. when you pull attribution, serbian institute of therapy and studies researchers devonne guy up says rush, i won't give an end when it comes to a security interest. the author its on the,

on the elections, the opportunity for and uh, let's say backdoor diplomacy. uh, which is a normal thing in a different complex appeared. so i think that there might be some kind of negotiation to negotiations behind the scenes. but the, uh, the positions of, uh, a rush line of natal are too far away. they are very much uh, a part i think that maybe um trumps organization is seeking to uh, find some kind of a korea scenario for ukraine in order uh for them to concentrate on other fronts. and uh, i think that moscow read through this and it doesn't want any kind of solution that will be a half measured that would not solve the main problem. and the main problem is not even the great, but also we have to see the internal component of all of this in the united states

because the cache, the found, the future, they rector of f. b, i a size. let's see what happened with the donations with the military aide that was already sent to ukraine because there are some serious allegations that there was a major corruption task of weapons selling it on the 3rd markets and so on. so that is why i think that the somebody's tracer wants to really see what was going on so far. and then maybe from that point on a, to defend calling about the possibility of future involvement. a less than a week into the trunk presidency. and the road map is already being rewritten in the gulf of mexico is now officially the gulf of america, at least according to the us president and one of his newly assigned executive orders. but while trump is adamant that he's only writing a historical wrong, the move has not been welcomed by washington's southern neighbors. the department

of the interior is proud to announce the implementation of name restorations that honor the legacy of american greatness. as directed by the president, the gulf of mexico will now officially be known as the gulf of america. for us is still the gulf of mexico for the whole world. it will continue to be the gulf of mexico. so to see you see him, the artist donald quarter has been taking a look at what the u. s. has in store for. it's so cold, backyard, and how those plans are actually pushing latin america ever closer to russia. changing the name of a body of water as one se, but trumps even send navy seals to the southern border and suggested sending the us military to mexico to liquidate the drug. cartels which the us president has designated terrorist organizations. this is actually an executive order designating the cartels and other organizations to be 4 and terrorist organizations tend to be one research people and wanted to do this for years.

so they are now designated is terrorist organizations foreign. and mexico probably doesn't want that. we have to do here is what happened. stranger things have happened. land grabs and troop deployments might sound extreme, but that's not all the us presidents also pens on the implementing 100 percent tire of sun bricks, countries. we require a commitment from these countries that they will neither create a new bricks, currency, know back any of the currency to replace the mighty us dollar. or they will face 100 percent tariffs and should expect to say good bye to selling into the wonderful

us economy. for sales specifically is set to be at odds with the united states which pulled out of the powers climate agreement task brazil. it prepares to host 2025, un climate change conference that's not to mention. trump invited. zara balls so narrow to his inauguration, the arch political arrival of incumbent brazilian president lula desilva. even before he returned to the white house, trump said the panama canal is returning to us, hans, and above all, china is operating the panama canal, and we didn't give it to china. we gave it to panama, and we're taking it back. of course the panama canal already belongs to well, panama and the country is president jose moreno, didn't really like trump idea. congratulations. mr. trump. the to, to be to the channel is and will remain under panama and the administration of the canal will remain under panamanian control for the rest of latin america. this was a big red flag after all of us can just lay claim to the panama canal. what else

can they say is there? i did the mean there is our solidarity with the president of panama, who came out very quickly to say the panama canal belongs to the panamanians. and in fact, the panama canal does belong to the panamanians, until the very end i will be on the side of panama and the defense of its sovereignty. if the new u. s. government wants to talk business, we will talk business face to face. and for the benefit of our people, but dignity will never be negotiated. venezuela reiterates its support for panama sovereignty over the canal, and it's inalienable right to self determination. no way. trump could've forgotten about venezuela, the same country where he tried to over throw the governments during his 1st term. these freedom fighters should not be harmed and must stay safe and to live. the west president could very well be going down that road once again, as he says,

washington is likely going to stop buying oil from iraq us altogether. we're looking at venezuela very strongly. it's a big country. i know very well for a lot of reasons and it's why it was a great country 20 years ago. now it's a mess. i wanted to find out about that too because we're going to probably stop by miles from that as well. we don't need to be, but we don't want to bike, we don't have to have 50. we have plenty of well for us. so that'll change that as well. a quite a bit. then there's cuba, it was removed from the us is list of state sponsors of terror under joe biden, only now to be reinstated under trump. revocation of orders and actions. the following executive actions are here by revoked the presidential memorandum of january 14th 2025 certification of rescission of cubans designation as a state sponsor of terrorism. here was already been dealing with

a crippling us embargoes since the 1950s. so naturally the government, there was not very happy to have even more on its plate. president trump, in an act of arrogance and disregard for the truth, has just reinstated the fraudulent designation of cuba as a state sponsor of terrorism. this is not surprising. his goal is to continue strengthening the cruel economic war against cuba for the purpose of domination. but as the trumpet administration, lois's friends, and fails to influence people in latin, america rushes, filling the vacuum or sales. taking a leading role and breaks with cuba and bolivia. having joined the groups rang, says partners in the last few days of the russian bricks, presidency, bella, ruth bolivia, causing stan cuba, malaysia, thailand you got and whose becca stand in. nigeria were announced as partner countries of the group as of january 1st, 2025 for his part van,

as well as president nicholas, venturo, fact rushes for administer for backing caracas against us imperialism. on behalf of president nicholas madura, we expressed our sincere gratitude to the minister of foreign affairs of the russian federation, sergey lover off for his firm and forceful message against the colonialist attitude of the united states and its allies. his statement highlights the unacceptable imposition of public presidents and nations that defend software and anti imperialist projects. no doubt moscow's been getting closer with latin america. as of late, the russian federation councils been highlighting just how strong relations with cuba are. while mexico recently congratulated russia on the 100 and 25th anniversary of their diplomatic relations at the same time, moscow criticized drums comments over the panama canal. as for transfer several days in office, we've clearly gotten a close look at how the us presidents orientation towards latin america will look for the next 4 years. but as long as ross is in the picture,

there's no way the consonants will have to go out at a low. i do say with us here on our, to international for all the days top news stories and you can read more about them on our website r t dot com bye. for now, the

of the 1934 prance invaded algeria and straight away the french started inhabiting it to strengthen their position. the column is known as the new waters took the best land from day one. the local population was put into an unequal position and was briefly exploited. this caused them as discontent. the people of algeria began their long term fight for independence. in 1954, the banner of freedom was raised by the national liberation front. a guerrilla war against the occupants broke out. the french tried to suppress, to rebuild you and using cruel measures. whole villages were wiped out,

acts of georgia and executions of civil people, including pregnant women, children, and old people took place. more than 2000000 people were born into concentration camps. however, these punitive measures didn't help. cl, jerry and patriot managed to induce france to start seize negotiations in 1962 heavy and the guards were signed footing l. jerry on the bass towards the independence. but this was achieved at a colossal price, algeria by rights is considered to be a country of martyrs. according to the calculations of historians, the french colonists are responsible for the depths of one and a half 1000000 algerians. the
