the, the, the award didn't need to happen. it was provoked, it doesn't necessarily mean it was provoked by the russians. better late than never . 3 years after russia launched its military operation, and ukraine, washington admits that moscow's hand was forced impulse overhead. i'm ready to leave my position and i'm ready to do with an exchange for ukraine's membership in nato. bottom is once the claims held, quit if only that allows ukraine to join the us blood block. something the white house has fall. washington wants to see elections and financial compensation from c s one for one, it's the 1st time in decades with tanks of entre judea and scenario. this means one thing we fight terrorism by all means and everywhere is real confirmed is an

expansion of its military assault on the west bank, with reports of raids and arrests coming from across the palestinian territory, forcing thousands of assembly dear friends, we have achieved a historic result, we have never been stronger together. the projections show that we are the only party that has doubled our previous selection result. they are the party celebrates of massive gains in the countries federal election coming in the 2nd overall, meaning the victorious conservative space having to form a coalition with the nation. the dr. 10 am here in moscow and you're watching the r t international. i'm your host donald quarter. welcome to the pro our top story. it took a whole 3 years, but washington is finally admitting that moscow was forced to start it's military

operation. ukraine, which had been a direct threats to russia. the word didn't need to happen. it was provoked, it doesn't necessarily mean it was provoked by the russians that were all kinds of conversations back then about ukraine joining nato. the president has spoken about this that didn't need to happen. it basically became a threat to the russians. and so we have to deal with that fact and those are real facts on the ground here. well, the 1st of all of the reasons for the start of the special ministry. reparation were clearly outlined by a lot of mere foods. and 3 years ago, the brutal killing of civilians by the key of regime and done boss v, pumping off west for money and weapons in few crane hands, nations encroachments on russian borders the 3 years on and most ago is evidently fulfilling his goals of the special military operation to diminish arise a key by continuing to advance on the battlefield liberating new territories on a daily basis. and of course the name changes are taken place and the perception of

reality by the whitehouse as we just heard. now the previous washington administration were leading the collective west in the narrative. that rush should begin in on pro woke, so it's a war against ukraine. but now drums administration, r belongs in saying that the start of the conflict in ukraine is actually keeps fold. while the trump administration now admit that the 2022 russian military operation was provoked, blaming bite and ends, the landscape has the new white house actually address the root causes of the conflict, of course. so the key change there is that the united states suddenly, so one of the a root problems like you said, and that is that ukraine's aspirations to join made. so over the last decade or sol voices in the key of brussels and washington were repeating like mon fraud, that's a ukraine's vesting to be in need. so hands with the arrival of trump seemed the

perception completely flipped. and the key of regimes, the nasal aspirations are now viewed. absolutely different. take a lesson, we will continue to be ukraine ever closer to they thought membership. so that when the time is right, ukraine, controlling without delay, president has said that he believes that nato is in ukraine's future. um and there's, there's a lot of things that have to be done before they can join the alliance like any member has to do before they can join the alliance. but the president believes firmly that nato is in ukraine's future at some point. but it has never been agreed that written out for piece store support starts that the store towards ends anywhere and always. and definitely the with nato membership that has never been a glitch. the reality that returning to 2014 as borders as part of a negotiated settlement is unlikely. the reality of us troops in ukraine is

unlikely. the reality of ukraine membership in nato as a part of the negotiated settlement unlikely. and i stand by. 5 the comments that i made on that 1st day in the ukraine contact group fall apart from that cold shower of lensky. he's now also being sold that ukraine must accept the new reality on the grounds. and that is old territories liberated by russia over the past 3 years will never return. knew of that. the key of regime is now suppose that they're ready to accept the borders as they were in february of 2020 to mind you. they initially wanted to cry me a back as well, but the united states now thing differently, we must start by recognizing that returning to ukraine's pre 2014 borders is unrealistic. objective chasing this, illusionary goal will only prolong the war and cause more suffering. the key of regime that was basically allowed to do whatever you want to do for the last 10

years, including committing terrorist acts against the russia is now probably in the state of shock if you will, the narrative of pushed on the ukrainians. now is that washington had betrayed them. mean while the trump thieves demands are as follows, you must have an election pay back the money invested in, you give us full access to your rare are minerals and so on and so forth. basically the us once it's money back that's it disappeared in the key of this taken. this is a landscape match that half of the money that we sent them is missing. they don't know where the money is. he said, well, we don't know what half of it is scrape. wonderful. he refuses of elections is low and the real ukrainian falls. i mean, how can you be? hi, with us. every city is being demolished. charge of the i somebody said, oh noise. paul's a good give me a break. a dictator with that elections. so lensky better move fast,

or he's not going to have a country left. got to move. gotta move fast. so we're asking for rarer than oil any the we didn't get. well now savanski seems to be squirming in attempts to crisis manage this situation. he's now saying that he doesn't owe anything to anybody. if there is a question through society of the united states, about military and about something else, ok, let's keep reduce it. it will be when we and if you can give us gum us. so mine is so simple. okay. okay. please give us a credit and we will give you back money after the war value. i know that we had 100 and that's a fact. i am not going to recognize 500, no matter who speaks today, no matter how we communicate with all due respect to our partners. i'm standing fun because this is a true situation. i'm not ready to fix, even 100000000000. i will explain why. because we should not recognize cronsa is

that like you to not find it, go shaded with biting and negotiated with the us congress. i am grateful to the congress. it was in the presence of the 2 parties. has the landscape presidents expired in may of last year, and he's now completely legitimate not only in the eyes of russia, but apparently washington as well. uh trump, had echoed, let him hear persons words and say that the you election to must take place. as soon as possible, the rescue though came up with his own idea in regards to that she is ready to leave and exchange coordinates of membership. so want to know if we are talking about peace in ukraine, i'm ready to leave my position and i'm ready to do it. an exchange for ukraine's membership in nato. if there are such conditions right now, i'm ready. i focus on our security guarantees. ukraine today. nothing 20 years and i'm not planning to stay in power for decades. so in general, another portion of black male and double speak by the landscape,

not to mention the fact that you are rudely responded to trump. when the american president said, zaleski is ratings, are as low as 4 percent. the response from a washington was quick and clear. there needs to be a deep appreciation for what the american people, what the american taxpayer, what president trump did in, in his 1st term. and what we've done sense, so some of the rhetoric coming out of key, frankly, and, and insults to president trump for unacceptable. you said yesterday made a lot of news, bad mouth, and trump not a good idea or zalinski 84. what's the, what's the thought process here? well, look, i mean, for this one sky, his country wouldn't exist without the generosity of the united states of america. so to say, thank you. and if you disagree with the president, pick up the phone and call him or call one of our great diplomats. don't go in and media tour around europe. bad announcing the pros, united states. it's insulting, it's insulting to him. it's insulting to me. it's insulting to the american people,

and by the way, it's stupid. meanwhile, as then see, is scrambling to show that to you, supported actually by his people and almost immediately presented his public ad. the world with polls by private companies that she's ratings are as high as 57 percent. that is to listen to late. however, it seems as the big boys have finally stepped off to the place and are now do you mind demanding their money back and much, much more. washington's also called out of over the death of h away in american journalist and ukrainian custody last year. but a lot of years lensky has claimed he knows nothing about guns all over europe. a politician even tried to joke his way out of the topic when griggs, during his own media conference, 3 chileans have died in this war. one of them isa going suddenly to journalists will die unless the unified keep wiling, the tension, his family and some to them politician times that you ordered it, keeps killing it. what can you say about that and how do you respond to the support

the pressing the body to has given to, you know, doesn't look us ok with the older jordan. the family? yes. the, the family also those have a lead and some politician from the left wing of my country are saying that you are the killing of him because he was supposedly russian agent of the i need to ask i assure you that i didn't know this person and i never knew him and didn't know that a don't know if he has intelligence or representative over us and did or not. and really like, what can i say if he is russian really, russian know is typically i'm an american through to the american intelligence and russian intelligence. yeah. too much information. i know that sounds weird. i know,

but that's a really hard topic of eric and about this. i'm not sure that one jordan is from kelly, who is half of him. american and the house are russian is the really was very dangerous for our army. so i didn't manage it. i'm not interesting and touched things to hello lira reported from the eastern ukrainian city of hard cove when moscow began it's military operation. 3 years ago, he was detained by the s b u and accused of spreading russian propaganda. mister lira claimed to have been tortured in custody and free eventually died in january of 2024 officially due to pneumonia. the case was recently raised by the us department of government efficiency chief you on mosque, who accused the landscape of ordering the killing of lyrics. here's what the journalist himself had stated back in 2023 when he was briefly released before

being rearrested. also taking a basing in my time, so i show it how it like help, but it was manageable. but then at 1.2 folks held my head and used to to speak to scratch the whites of my left eye. while asking me if i could still read, if i had just one, go to correct rape in my 1st cell, but it wasn't too bad. the west stretch was a my fault, so from 1 pm on june the 21st until 7 pm. the next day 30, i was always beaten and sleep deprived my alms, twisted the wrong way around the shoulders and germany beaten. pretty bad. we learned last night through a series of tweets by him that he had been tortured in the print in prison. and he was now on a motorcycle with a broken rib trying to flee to the gary in border. and so i'm wondering, you know, if this is true, given the state department knew of his arrest, of his detention. how has this been allowed to occur? we have a us citizen being arrest being detained and perhaps tortured in the prison of one of our strongest allies. well, you, you lost me with the perhaps,

and if this is true, i think i'd want to verify those reports before i commented on alex, go ahead, proud where it has the state of art and i think i think i just want to verify anything before i come and go head out to the former c. i a analyst, larry johnson who personally knew gonzalo told us the details of the journalist to attempt to flee ukraine and saw him arrested. and eventually dead and custody. dissolve. tried to call me a few hours before he was arrested at the border. he was trying to reach me and it was and he was calling if it's the middle of the night here and i was in bed. so i didn't get the call. i might have been able to give him advice or some counsel on what he should have done and the trying to get across the border. yeah, no, it is the let excuse the despicable human being he's these are a monster, but he's got blood on his hands. he's worse than a dictator. and this can be used as patton disregard for the life of someone like

a solemn, particularly when he time did not know him. but then he insisted that he was a russian agent. the fact that he insisted he's a russian agent. if he doesn't know who he is, so he's just, he's not, he's not a bright manager. is someone who's in poverty of intellect, i'm glad to deal on mosque has brought to attention to it. that's the good news, but i don't know if he's willing to really push that to a little bit and flip for some pain and consequences on ukraine for the murder of this. your sense me, this is, this is not just on zelinski. this is on the united states government. if you're biting. whitehouse, white and state department has made an issue of it and say it goes all it would be alive today. but they didn't. they wanted to let him die. here's an example.

the other quagmire that trump has inherited from biden is the war in the middle east. and the israeli prime minister has now told his nation to prepare to fight for an extended period of time on multiple fronts of back that says benjamin netanyahu tried to justify ordering idea of change to rate the palestinian west bank, which he refers to bias. biblical name, i mean come out, oh god, this for as long it requires tenacious compliance on many fronts, 7 fronts. we introduced tags for the 1st time in judy and scenario and decades. this says one thing, we are fighting terrorism by all means and everywhere. a major escalation in the west bank, what israel calls judea and samaria bytes, biblical name, his role is expanded in smell, to reparation irony wall rolling tanks into janine for the 1st time since the 2002005 palestinian uprising known as the 2nd intifada. and this isn't just

a short term raid and yeah, whose government is ordering forces to prepare for an extended stay idea of has been targeting refugee camps and milton strong holes. and according to the country's defense minister, they are not going anywhere for at least a year. the goal to prevent the researches of what israel sees as tara networks so far around $40000.00 palestinians have slept the homes. and janine to cover him and shuns and, and, and other major move. israel has halted all on the rock tibits in these cans. how much has been quick to react? the expansion of the military operations of design is to occupation army and janine and the northern westbank areas, as well as the deployment of military, reinforcements and tanks for the 1st time in many years, clearly revealed the enemy's dangerous intentions to continue the war of extermination against our palestinian people and to continue the policy of unprecedented destruction and sabotage our people and their resistance will afford

all these plans now another from syria and a surprise statesman. speaking in front of combat officers and antonia laid down new red lines. he's demand and therefore the militarization south of damascus said israel will not allow series new mil to reach operate there, and 11 on israel says it will hold onto the territory. this comes off to classified security making ways really officials assessed growing products along the nose and both the natania was direct taken. listen, we went on. we will hold controlled territories along our northern border inside lebanon, and opposite our settlements until the lebanese army and government fulfil all their obligations under the agreement in siri, idea of forces will stay in the hormone region and the buffer zone for an unlimited time to defend our communities and just toward any threat, we will not allow h t us forces or the new syrian army to enter the area south of damascus. we demand a complete demilitarization of southern syria of the can a tro,

dara. and so way to areas from the forces of the new regime, hands and if any who didn't stop there and he doubled down on his warning to iran make and it's clear and his role will not allow tire on to acquire a nuclear weapon. and all of this is happening as a gas, as seized by agreement, hangs by a thread. and it tells you who has ordered a delay in releasing over 800 pals, student prisoners and detainees, even though have mass handed over 6 is rarely hosted. as i'm such as a, as agreed, here's israel's explanation, and how masses reaction in light of how mazda is repeated violations, including this amante's that humiliate r hostages and the cynical exploitation of our hostages for propaganda purposes. it has been decided to delay the release of terrorist that was planned for yesterday until the release of the next hostages has been assured. and without the humiliating ceremonies, there will be no talks with the enemy through mediators before the release of the prisoners agreed upon and exchange for those 6 is really captives. the mediators

must obligate the enemy to implement the agreement every hand over. and gallagher has turned into a spectacle, have mass. milton standing fully armed, while fried hostages are made to speak at the latest event on such a day to his really captives who are not even on the release least were forced to watch the friends being freed. later appearing in the mass video begging these when a government to save them, israel reacted furiously and now the ceasefire could collapse again. israel has repeatedly threatens to review war in guys though, and recent ball shows 60 percent of his weight as opposed public fresh res, growing on the 10. yeah. with protests happening every week with people demanding the government to move forward with present r swaps families of the remaining hostages. fear that if the deal falls apart, they loved ones may never make it home. the stakes couldn't be high end. this isn't just about hostages. it's about these rules, broad a strategy in the region with tensions running high, the federal piece,

hanes and the balance, and one move from either side could stupid over the conservative christian democrats have won the general election of federal election rather in germany, leaving the incumbent. chancellors, social democrats trailing in 3rd balls. second place has been secured by a right wing party for the 1st time in 80 years. and the alternative for germany's co leader has demanded a key role in the upcoming coalition. your friends, we have achieved a historic result. we have never been stronger together. the projections show that we are the only party that has doubled our previous selection result. we'll see what unfolds in the coming weeks. however, if what we anticipate happens that the cd you will copy the of these policies and then betray its own voters by forming a coalition with the left. then i can assure you, the next election will come faster than you can imagine. and we will surpass the cd you as the strongest force. that is our goal. the the leader fully expects. uh the

likely future chancellor mertz and is kristen democrats to start stealing her party policies like the kid in class. you copies your answers, i'll tell it everyone else how much it sucks. he also points out that so when it comes to keeping populous out at any cost, suddenly the establishment left and right have absolutely no problem hopping into bed together. um, no doubt that mattress will seem way too small way too fast. friedrich mertsa is christian democrats, so angle americans, old party, one let's see. election of 29 percent of the vote, mostly thanks to older voters in western germany. meanwhile, younger voters, particularly in eastern journey, lots to the as i stablish ment, left and right, which is basically a flashing neon signs for where things are headed in about a decade. but for now much claims he has to form a coalition that represents all germans, except apparently the ones in the east to over. well,

i'm only voted for the populace, right? me alternative for germany or f t e, which came in the 2nd. the 21 percent merch also insist that the world is waiting for him. alright, germany, i guess, to take center stage of peace negotiations between russia and the us. my impression over the last few days is that russia and america of finding common ground over the heads of the ukraine and thus also over the heads of europe. that is why everyone is now looking at germany. how quickly will the germans be able to form a government off to this complicated election result? that is really my priority. now merch promises to be tough with the americans to back you cranes, to push for a software and european defense is even fluid. this idea of the journey, ditching the us nuclear umbrella and closing up under britons and frances instead. but the real story here in the selection is the a f. these rise a double it's boat share since the. busy last national election, it secure 2nd place. turns out voters, especially eastern germany, are drilled,

i guess about being arrested for tweets. the government sending weapons, denazi's and ukraine, cutting off cheap gas the fuse, their industries that happened to be from russia, that gas or showering with their pals the season. energy. meanwhile, johnson oil schultz is social democrats. it's such a bad night that shots announced he wouldn't be leading the party in any coalition talks or really in a future coalition for that matter, fine or not, fine, very, dear friends, dear comrades, this is a disappointing election result for the social democratic party. this is also an election defeated the last time the election result was better and i take responsibility for that. this time the election result is poor and therefore i also take responsibility for this outcome argue it shows as defense minister boris victorious policy election results for his party. devastating. i've devastated for room exactly. well, maybe for german weapons giant ryan metal which schultz pod land has another

3000000000 euros strictly of for you. great, of course, or maybe devastating for the weapons, water and scheme which germany i shipped it's outdated junk that it found in its military addicts over to ukraine, only to get then reimbursed by brussels from the money that it initially paid for us with this program. and with the a f d, the populace left party now at 9 percent. so sarah wagner next the party, which is just a huge with 5 percent for making sizable opposition. all of those guys together. they could also contribute significantly to blocking any escalation over ukraine. they thought once it consistent, i'm people policy a policy that will definitely not agree to arms packages all deployed to put in display whether in ukraine or elsewhere. they wanted to keep us out of discipline.

this talk by any means necessary. we do not yet know if they have succeeded, but i think it honors us with the effort they fought against us. okay, so bottom line with the selection in the end markets, the play captain of a cru forced together through opportunism and with a whole lot of popular circling like sharks from europe all the way to the us. so we will be interesting to see just how long this particular ship matches to stay afloat or, or news coming your way in. just about 30 minutes. the russian states never as one of the most sense community best.

most all sense of the, in the 6595 and speed, the one else calls question about this even though we will then in the european union, the kremlin media mission, the state on russia scooting and supports the r t spoke neck. even our video agency, roughly all the band on youtube, the student services for the question, did you say steven twist, which is the

stuff for the summer shift for the picture day. so should the shield daughter should do this vehicle? is it the economic model? have the with the kind of what it means different this time next time and see if it doesn't figured tested by the next 2 weeks or even though the new outside of the village square, it's a company and some village goes up developing bio chemical weathers inside of the guns go to watch some news malware some cheaper to use the white glove service cost, but he's because of the 2nd sure. the

shooters and it's in welcome to going under gabriel, gusting around the world from the heart of the middle east that hosted talks to of a nuclear war. the ukraine peace talks came ahead of today's un security and general assembly meetings about the nature of proxy war on russia. today is 3 years since vladimir putin finally understood the duplicity of them in school agreements and moved russian forces to protect the civilians. persecuted and bombed with nature weapons, since the us coo and keith in 2014. this says trump at home drives to revolutionize government under the stewardship of you don't, must ex, department of government efficiency or doj already revealing shocking levels of corruption at the heart of the republic. shortly. one of the inspirations window

gen for trumps. new priorities as being that icon of libertarianism. in america, dr. run pull recently off by feeling most of the run the federal reserve, the veteran congressman who ran for the white house 3 times and who is the father of us and is around full share of the senate homeland security committee, joins me now from clued. texas a doctor full thanks so much for coming back on before we get the drums piece initiative. what's your understanding of a scale of waste of us public money, as revealed by ellen must, could judge. even though for years decades i've been talking about this, etc. would lead to a disaster when it was finally revealed in more detail. it's still even with my anticipation, it's still rather shocking. i don't know why, you know how much trouble we're facing it. when i looked at the employees of the usa id.
