[000:00:00;00] news the, the word 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 admit that moscow's hand was port also. and i'm ready to leave my position and i'm ready to do it in exchange for ukraine's membership in nato flooded me was a lensky clientele quit if only that allows ukraine to join the us led law something the white house has ruled out. washington wanted to see elections and financial compensation from key. it was one. it's the 1st time in decades that tanks have entered u. d,

a. in some area. this means one thing we fight terrorism by all means and everywhere. israel confirms an expansion of its military assault on the west bank with reports of raids and arrests coming from across the palestinian territory, forcing thousands to flee, and also ahead. 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 election results. if the party celebrates massive gains in the countries federal election coming in 2nd overall, meaning the victorious conservative space having to form a coalition with the national in the just after 11 am here in the russian capital and your watching our to international . i am your host donald quarter. welcome to the program. our top story. it took a whole 3 years,

but washington is finally admitted that moscow was forced to start its military operation in ukraine in response to direct threats to russia's national security. the war didn't need to happen, it was provoked, it doesn't necessarily mean it was provoked by the russians that were all kinds of fun. 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, uh, the reason for the start of the special ministry operation were clearly outlined by a lot of near foods and 3 years ago. the brutal killing of civilians by the key of receiving done boss. v, pumping off west for money and weapons, and few crane and 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 needs territories on a daily basis. and of course the name changes are taken place and the perception of reality by the whitehouse, as we've heard. now the previous washington administration were leading the collective west in the narrative. that rush should begin in on pro woke such a war against ukraine. but now drums administration are beloved 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 said, the united states suddenly, so one of very a root problems like you said, and that is that ukraine's aspirations to join made. so over the last decade, our 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 regina, the nasal aspirations are now viewed, absolutely different. take a lesson, we will continue to being ukraine ever closer, too late to membership. so that's 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 to run that for piece store. so which starts that the store towards ends anywhere and always. and definitely the, with nato membership that has never been to create 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 the comments that i made on that 1st day in the ukraine contact group fall apart from that goal, shower on zalinski. he's now also being told 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 your that's 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. to 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 done 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. meanwhile, the trump teams 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 bag that's it disappeared in the cube, a best taking 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 square, it's wonderful. she refuses, of elections is low and the real ukrainian falls. and then how can you be hi, with us. every city is being demolished. charge of the i, somebody said, oh, noise falls, 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 rivers and oil. edu. we didn't get well now as an excuse. seems to be squirming in attempts to crisis, manage the situation. he is 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 also 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 it or not, but we find it go shaded with bite and, and i negotiated with the us congress. i am grateful to the congress. it was in the presence of the 2 parties and they would believe it has the landscape presidents expired in may of last year. and he's now completely and it just some, it's not only in the eyes of russia, but apparently washington as well. uh trump had echoed, let him hear pollutants of 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 in exchange for nathan membership from one of located. and 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 lensky 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 were unacceptable. you said yesterday made a lot of news, bad mouth, and trump not a good idea of doors, the landscape. what's the, what's the thought process here? well, look, i mean, for this long 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 and then see is scrambling to show that she is supported actually by his people . hands almost immediately presented his public ad. the world with poles by private companies that use ratings are as high as 57 percent. that is to listen to late. however, it seems as though 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 is also called out key of over the death of a 2 lane american journalist and ukrainian custody. last year. a lot of years lensky has claimed he knows nothing about guns all over europe. the politician even tried to joke his way out of the topic when grilled by actually and reporter. 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 him politician. claims that you ordered it keeps killing it . what can you say about that and how do you respond to the support the president the body to has given to you on that 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 rushing agent. i need to ask, i used to a to that i didn't know this person. and i never knew him. and then no, i know the, don't know if he is intelligence or representative over us and it or not. and really like, what can i say if he is russian really, russian know,

is to him and american through to the american intelligence and russian intelligence. yeah. too much information. i know. i know that sounds weird. i know, but that's a really hard topic of error and about this. so i'm not sure that to one jordan released from chile, who's half of him american and the house or russian is the really was worried injuries for our army. so i didn't manage it. i'm not the interesting untouched things. so works on zillow. we are a reported from the eastern ukrainian city of hanukkah when moscow began its military operation 3 years ago, who was detained by the s b u and accused of spreading russian propaganda. mr. leroy, a claim to have been tortured in custody, where he eventually died in january of 20. 24 is the official reason is pneumonia. the case was recently raised by u. s. department of government efficiency, chief e long boss. what used to the landscape of ordering the killing of we're up,

but here's what the journalist himself had stated back in 2023 when he was briefly released before being re arrested. also on taking a beating in my time. so i show it hot like help, but it was manageable, but then at 1.2 folks held my head and use the to speak to scratch the whites of my left died while asking me if i could still read. if i had just one, i go to correct rabid my 1st cell, but it wasn't too bad. the west stretch was a my full of cell 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 in germany beaten pretty bad wheeler last night for 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 the hunt, gary and border. and so i'm wondering, you know, if this is true, given the state department knew of his arrest and 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. to find out where it has the state of art and i think i think i just want to verify anything before i come and go ahead. ok. former c, i a analysts, larry johnson, who personally knew gonzalo told us the details of the journalist attempts to flee ukraine that saw him arrested. and eventually that in custody to 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, some counsel on what he should have done and the trying to get across the border. yeah, no, it is. zaleski is a despicable human being. he's these are

a monster. so he's got blood on his hands. he's worse than a dictator and is, can use this 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. how could 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 man. he said he is someone who's in poverty of intellect, i'm glad to deal on most cars 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 pain and consequences on ukraine for the murder of this. your sense? me, this is, this is not just on to lensky. this is on the united states. government is dividing . whitehouse, white and state department has made an issue of it. i'm sorry,

it goes all it would be alive today. but they didn't. they wanted to let him die. here's an example, the another quagmire that trump has inherited from the bye didn't ministration 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. and says, benjamin netanyahu tried to justify ordering idea of tags to raid the palestinian west bank, which he refers to by it's biblical name. oh god, this for as long it requires to nations compliance on many fronts, 7 fronts. we introduced tags for the 1st time in judy and scenario and decades. the says one thing, we are fighting terrorism by all means and everywhere. major escalation in the west bank, what israel calls judea and samaria by its biblical name, as well as expanding, smelled 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 rate. and then yeah, who is government is ordering forces to prepare for an extended stay idea 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 tearing that towards so far around $40000.00 palestinians have slept their homes. and janine, till the car um and what else chums and, and then 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 the zionist 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 military to 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 northern border. natania who was direct taken. listen, we will hold controlled territories along our northern border inside 11 on an 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 in the buffer zone for an unlimited time to defend our communities and just toward any threats, 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 tra, dara. and so way to areas from the forces of the new regime. and so this idea who didn't stop there and he doubled down on his warning to iran, making it's clear and he's, rel, will not allow tire on to acquire a nuclear weapon. and all of this is happening as a gas has seized by agreement, hangs by a thread. and it turn, yeah, 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 on sunday, 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 our 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 an exchange for the 6 is really captives. the mediators must obligate the enemy to implement the agreement every hand over and gals. it 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 really government to save them is really reacted furiously. and now this, these bar code collapse again. israel has repeatedly threatens to review war in guys though, and recent ball shows 60 percent of his weight as opposed public frustrate is 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 roles, bro, to strategy in the region with tensions running high, the federal tease hanes and the balance, and one moved from either side to but over the conservative christian democrats have won the german federal election leaving the incumbent. chancellor, social democrats trailing in 3rd place while 2nd place has been secured by the alternative for germany party with its strongest ever result. and the a, if the co leader has demanded a key role in the upcoming coalition of 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 results. we'll see what unfolds in the coming weeks. however, if what we anticipate happens, that the cd you will copy the after use 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 course. 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 and 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. no doubt that mattress will seem way too small way too fast. predict mertsa is christian democrat. so angela merkle is old party one. let's see election with 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 overall mentally voted for the populace. rightly alternative for germany or f d, which came and 2nd, the 21 percent merch, also insist that the world is waiting for him. for i germany, i guess, to take center stage and 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 f. these rise has doubled its votes

chair since the last national election and secure 2nd space in terms of voters, especially eastern germany, are thrilled. i guess about being arrested for tweets, the government sending weapons to neo nazis and ukraine, cutting off cheap gas that fuse their industries to happen to be from russia, that gas or showering with their policy energy. meanwhile, johnson oil schultz is social democrats at such a bad night that schultz announced he wouldn't be leading the party in any coalition talks or really in a future coalition for that matter, fine or not, find it. dear friends, dear comrades, this is a disappointing election result for the social democratic party. this is also an election defeat 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 already shows as defense minister boris victorious policy election results for his party. devastating, i've got

a cd for me exactly. well, maybe for a german weapons giant, right? metal with shultz had planned and another 3000000000 euros strictly of, for ukraine. of course. or, you know, this may be devastating for the weapons, water and scheme which germany and shit, it's outdated junk that are found in its military addicts and sign over to you. grain only to get them reimbursed by brussels from the money that it initially paid for us with this program. and with the a f d. the populace last party now with 9 percent sarah value next new party, which is just a huge, with 5 percent for making sizeable opposition. all of those guys together. they could also contribute significantly to blocking any escalation over ukraine. they don't want it consistent. i'm people policy a policy that will definitely not agree to arms packages or deployed dependents that whether in ukraine or elsewhere,

they wanted to keep us out of this. but in this talk by any means necessary, we do not yet know if they have succeeded. but i think it owners, 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 force together to opportunism and with a whole lot of popular certainly like sharks from europe all the way to the us. so they will be interesting to see just how long this particular ship matches to stay afloat. and now some breaking news from france, where a russian diplomatic compound has apparently come under attack in the city of more se rushes console. there has confirmed that an explosion took place at the sight, firefighters were deployed to the scene of the blast. that sparked a blaze. and so far, no casualties are being reported, according to french media to molotov cocktails were thrown at the territory of the russian consul,

it will keep you updated on this developing story as we get more information the that's all for this, our stick around for more news coming your way and just about 30 minutes here on our to international the and welcome to cross the full board. here we discuss a real in the show seemed wrong. just don't to shape out the application and engagement equals the trail.

when so many find themselves will to part, we choose to look for common ground, the the, everybody, welcome back to the most old mules. i'm shaped bows and of course i'm joined by the magnificence all the decide kicked him out on the back seat. the mom with the numbers of the figures and what a week, it's being incredible, right? the way things have turned around. like we said, the big data meet on the juggernaut shows no signs of slowing down. and it's been a mega my g a week. let's have

a look to start out how it all done for the knack of your, or the little green goblin, the monica of whose options are shrinking. i think you can put the condo in florida on hold. that's for sure. it's on the look. a cost on lines back to how it was me. good all days cuz i'm on in the green sack suit when he turned up in the usa and people fall of this fee tone money out of me, or we're all that money went on you. well, the video, we stand, we 5 and we will, we in because we are united ukraine, america and the entire free world. the good all nancy. mm hm. well, probably look at that. you know, you'd swear it was a different world, but it is a different world that things have changed. the mary around is turned full tilt and,

but we're not gonna look though how things are today. and it seems like another world, the lord of the rings, happy and then is long out of sight for the narc of or let's have a look at a low you go to where the leader in ukraine. i mean, i hate to say it, but he's down at $0.04 approval. right. but today i heard, oh, we weren't invited. were you been there for 3 years? you should have it in 3 years. you should have never started it. you could have made a deal. oh, so good. the so it's pretty driven, isn't it? oh my god. oh my god, look at his. yeah. he really knows had a robot in his knee. so he actually knows that to
