0 and that was the us and this is the new over of the the leadership had a hand and the romanian prosecutors decision to open a case against the presidential candidates talon, georgia. that's according to russian intelligence. president zalinski was moments away from signing an economic lifeline, and instead he put the cart ahead of the horse and he bid the hand that is feeding the mirror. and the landscape refuses to seek peace under washington's terms and faces mounting pressure to concede or set aside as the us. the spends military aid to ukraine, hungary strikes again and its aiming for peace. budapest throws its weight behind trump decision to cut a. do you frame and blocks a proposed 20000000000

a year old military aid packets from brussels to key? it was k us, brett, the serbian problem. as the opposition law makers, light smoke grenades, protesting, city empties in the ruling county the live in moscow. you're watching r t international. i'm rachel ruble. brussels is on a war path against european leaders, who openly support us president donald trump, according to russian intelligence services. it says the leadership, back to the romanian prosecutors decision to charge presidential hopeful challenger jessica. the decision of the romanian prosecutor's office to bring charges against georgia school is backed by the european union's leadership, the european commission president. but i still have underlying demanded that the current authorities in bucharest not allowed georgia ask you to participate in the

2nd round election. she threatened to restrict remaining is access to a you funds if the representative of non systemic forces continues to participate in the election campaign. after the attack on your desk, you, we can confidently predict further attempts by the european liberal main stream to suppress defend in the u. an incredibly strong statement that from russia's for an intelligent service, saying it has evidence that he was involved in the attempts to bring those accusations against calling georgia school. just to remind to this is a man who seemed as being a french kinds of they said actually talk to the point in the 1st round of the presidential elections. he mania of november last to then just a few weeks later, off to the rockies ations of russian meddling in not election. those results were knows by the remaining constitutional court and charges who then booth and the last

week against calling georgia school. today since the new evidence showing russian was a tool involved in modeling and not to election. and in fact the reasoning the college was yes, cruise campaign, which soon viral was due to the promotion. finally approved european party, the c n l. this is the national liberal party here in romania, despite that fact as a have been many charges to, to gains calling to address case of which he denies all of them and says, this is essentially a political hatch joseph. just to bring you more information about what the russian foreign intelligence services have to say. they said that basically the bureaucrats will declaring who knows fish technically does lead, is warranted to refuse to following what your pin institutions have to say. and we think them to do and it talks about several of the countries facing the same issues

such as victor open in hungry. i'm also a robot. so in slovakia it says this based decision to challenge college who was yes, who came from the very top of the process of leads from the commission president himself base level relating who's urging everything should be done to ensure that there is no to we. one of november's presidential election was george call i was calling to just to coming top of that pole. and that he was in court in the last day to appeal that decision to bring those charges against him saying this, this is a political witch hunt. and that she is not guilty one, i am innocent too. it is a political case. and 3, i saw parts of the case on antenna 3, which we do not have. my lawyers do not have. we do not have the details of the case. that is why i would as comrade, prosecutor dancer rush forward,

you left school to give me that access to because i do not have the details. i will continue to tell you that it is a political case that has been investigated. i am innocent, we are moving forward. we are the people we are romania pull that you have it. so when calling georgia, screw himself, he has not been given access to the file. neither has his new is a wont be allegations as it has the keys. don't but of course the evidence remained use prosecution office believes it has against him, and he's been supported by other political leaders in romania to including george simulate his faith to austin just a few days ago and saying that his country is essentially defending into what could be liking to a non republic and there were many people. okay. and romania who support calling to just to just a few days ago. there was a mess. raleigh, here in the city of the blue cross, the capital city, with thousands upon thousands of individuals coming out to the streets and

demanding the candidates demand that they did full of becomes the next president. over mania is to be determined whether calling georgia schools will be participating in that next we run olga to election. he just said he's going to follow the paperwork waiting for that to happen. but we know for the moment he is waiting for decisions. final thoughts here, romania, when you say on the outcome of where they can have access, just access to the accusations and the evidence against him showing that even sky faulty in bucharest. a hard lesson for vladimir zalinski after binding the hand that feeds him as the us has paused o military aid shipments to crane the white house spokesperson told reporters kev must stop the war. as donald trump has directed, the president has been clear that he is focused on peace. we need our partners to be committed to that goal as well. we're pausing and reviewing our aid to ensure

that it is contributing to a solution. well, we haven't heard any public confirmation from the white house about them pausing a do crane, but the media sure has been talking a lot about it. we've seen it reported in both blur. bloomberg and fox news also had its own segment covering that whole ordeal. the united states is pausing. busy u. s. military aid to ukraine until president trump determines the trainings show a commitment of good faith peace negotiations. that's according to a senior trump administration telling fox this is not a permanent termination of aid. it is a pause. the orders are going out right now. the official said this in response to granting presence, unless he's conduct over the last week and his words over the weekend. this all comes as washington and t if we're supposed to sign ukrainian rare, or minerals the last week, because according to trump, i mean, she feels like the u. s. has put tons of time and energy and money into ukraine, and it's gotten very little in return, so it's fine to make a profit. and this c o,

according to the trump, is the best way to do it. here's the ukraine minerals deal now, dad, or can it be revive? what, which well, i'll let you know we're making this space. you probably heard about it tomorrow night, so i'll let you know tomorrow night, but no, i don't think so. i think it's look at, it's a great deal for us because you know, bite and very, very flawlessly, stupidly frankly gave $300000000000.35 more accurately uh, to a country to fight and to try and do things. and you know what happened, we get nothing and what we're doing is getting that all back and a lot more than that. but that bill didn't even get signed at all because before trump and zalinski could actually even talk about it, zalinski made a huge scene in the white house and got kicked out of the oval office is what makes america a good country? is america engaging in diplomacy? that's what president trump's doing, can ask you?

sure. yeah. okay, what do you mean? i'm talking about the kind of diplomacy it is going to end the destruction of your country. but he does it with respect. i think it's disrespectful for you to come to the oval office. try to litigate this in front of the american media. we're trying to solve a problem. don't tell us what we're going to feel. i'm not telling you is issue a check date the year in no position, didn't dictate what we're going to fail. you again, really is a people seeing huge gambling with world war 3. and what you're doing is very dis, written disrespectful to the country. this country. i'm in the way that really that to you are more that a lot of people say where they should have your big trouble dinner. so no, no, not a lot of talking. your country is in big trouble. i know you're not. i know you're not winning this from the very beginning of the war. we've been long and we have sampled. i said, thanks. you have the wrong these can we gave you the president $350000000000.00?

you will you, for your military equipment, then you tell us, i don't want to cease fire. i don't want to cease fire is i was with the a guy named bite and who is not a smart person. this is going to be great television. i was pretty shocking exchange and the white house there, but it's not really that surprising that zalinski would have that kind of behavior . i mean, after all, he's used to being to by the administration's golden boy, he's re easiest to getting whatever he wants from the us. government, but the times have changed and now the trumpet administration is saying that once he's biting the hand that feeds him last friday, president zalinski was moments away from signing an economic lifeline. and instead, he put the card ahead of the horse and he bets the hand that is feeding in the united states and the american people are tired of putting the bill for this war. president trump wants to negotiate a deal, and unfortunately it appears the president zalinski is not willing to do that just yet. well, lot of people in the trump administration are saying that they have to be able to

speak with someone at the helm of ukraine's government. that's actually ready to negotiate, and zaleski just does not seem ready to do that. on top of that, the landscape keeps talking about security guarantees. we heard from new case, prime minister, recently suggested sending british troops to ukraine as part of that security guarantee. but you are a slice president j events. he doesn't agree with that. he says that this rare earth minerals deal is going to be the best security guarantee that someone's can can get. it can come to the oval office and say, give us security guarantees. we won't even engage with you about what we're willing to give up. that's been the ukrainian pastor when that pastor changes as president trump said when they're willing to talk peace. i think present trouble with the 1st person to pick up the phone. the very best security guarantee is to give americans economic upside in the future of ukraine. that is a way better security guarantee than 20000 troops for us from some random country that has a photo of war in 30 or 40 years. they secured in guarantee,

and also the economic guarantee for ukraine is to rebuild the country and ensure that america has a long term interest. you're not going to do that and you come to the oval office and salt the president and refused to follow his plan for peace. was the let's get and say, sorry or anything he seems to be hiding. his embarrassment behind silence because he hasn't even made any official comments about that student in the white house since that happened aside from saying thank you to donald trump on twitter. but like i said before, the trump administration wants to work with someone who's ready to negotiate, who's ready for a peaceful resolution to the ukraine conflict. and based on once the once the recently told western leaders in london doesn't seem like he's the guy for that. he says that piece is far away on the horizon. do you will do for the keep an agreement and the war is still very, very far away. and no one has started all these steps yet with the piece that we proceed in the future must be just to honest and most importantly, sustainable to us and so on. the backdrop of all these events,

we also heard from the kremlin spokesperson, dimitri pass golf. were pointed out that no sort of negotiations between russia and ukraine can even happen before diplomatic relations are restored between the 2 countries. although none of that might even be necessary based on what trump has made cleared as a lensky and he doesn't have the cards. the suspension applies to all us military equipment, not currently a new crane including arms in trends that are waiting for delivery from poland. weapons cargo at the country's logistics hub has already been cut off. according to warsaw. the full damage isn't immediately obvious since in almost $4000000000.00 shipment from american stock pals that trump inherited from his predecessor is still in the works. but the crucial question is whether the us will cut off ukraine's access to satellite data. our graphic here shows a disproportionate number washington controls compared to other nations. while there is no formal word or you creating an official has hinted cube is scrambling

to find an alternative mellow tri communication system in case starling systems are pulled from ukrainian armed forces. let's get more on this now from former us army officers. dennis loved her picnic us tasking to have you on the program with us again, details a bit fuzzy at the moment and what exactly is being put on pods? can you help us understand how this move by the trump administration could impact the troops who are fighting on the battlefield? oh yes. uh well, what's the impact on balls right now is the equipment that joe by you had already said it was pretty staged in either solar sense or, and the rest of these and the 3 stage game in either romania or former, that has not been shown in place so it's no longer being delivered on onto the brain. so don't tell us this is not so much heavy equipment as munitions artillery shells. small arms, munitions, mr. mortar rounds,

things are the rockets. additionally, as far as the telecommunications, as far as right now, even though with this frozen ontology, this will be shared with the brain in the military to work. you know, the use of us calling, which is so going strong. now without store, like, uh, the premiums are in a much more difficult situation. there are make shift alternatives that they can use uh, using uh, for example, of already gone drones. uh, as re, translators. they already do that on the front line to get their drones going further uh, behind a line of contact. and they can uh, of course, put up those same drones. i've already got drones in the near rear to make some kind of communication. so like you have to either towers or a land based of communications that taking their care. and so, but it's a much more difficult situation. it's so much more fragile also some,

and it'll take away all most. it's not all of their bother you guys from any kind of combat duty to try to support some kind of communication system uh on the front end. do you think it's likely that the us will cut off kids data access to it, satellites that i see, of course your it still has its own satellites from much more limited. uh your uh is a promising or was promising gallery refresh that to have a star link light system. uh. now did clarify somewhere in the night in 2029, 2030 which is a little uh more than uh, a ridiculous promise. um is obviously by that point it won't be your brain if things keep up with this rate so you will catch it off. it's going to be a major blow for your fee and still have their own $5.00 lanes, much more limited, obviously. then uh, what you have wrong uh satellite,

a satellite adult. so those are still becoming uh, it'll just be very, very heavily, dea degraded from what they have right now. installing gifts cut off. musk has written that, not one of them once, hasn't done it, but he's threatened that. so we'll see if he does that. that will be a major blow to operations. uh uh, by the brand inside of washington and political reporter, quotes a high ranking new training official saying the hold of us military aid will cost to lose new territory. do you think that's accurate based on the current situation on the ground? i think the better way to put that is to use more new territory more quickly their lives and territory regardless of what uh the world west uh, are being liberated are you, uh, is losing idle and seems going to start losing uh,

large short term so. so how soon? so regardless, uh, the russian uh from is moving forward. uh, is just a matter of how quickly it can be before, because uh, once give him a longer, uh, coordinate as easily as to coordinate our radios as gordon deals. fashion way. uh it will be much more difficult to react. uh, it will be much more difficult due for the defensive line, especially in a fluid battlefield environment. oh, they will just continue upon. it would be pushed back uh, faster than they already are. okay. there are other media reports suggesting the training and military could keep fighting for months without further us military aid. do you think that's possible? oh yes, absolutely. and it won't be a maybe a coordinator font. it will be a much more difficult situation for there will take much higher loss of no, let's not say that they're not going to get anything because without usa, they're still the europeans and those. no one said that, where's your going?

it isn't gonna sell weapons to europe as part of may affect washington now wants to solve weapons systems to your as part of the data. that's part of 5 percent. there's no a european the industry can make up that 5 percent. even though, for example, in german industry military sector, the industrial sector grew over 40 percent last year. as fact, uh, if you want to go to war with somebody, you kind of like to have your people on the poor side so that they all go, particularly young men are looking for work, will go into one of 2 points, either the military, industrial sector or the military itself, i know those conditions are being created all over europe of finland as a prime example of that. lucky part of the average finish mail. the military industrial sector has limited, it hasn't been desire and the military is high. so there's still some place that i need to go to feed his family. and that's kind of what's in that situation. that's be great. it over the you, which is the prime uh,

situation for when you want to start a war. uh, cuz your people just hungry and off they'll go do whatever you want them to do to feed themselves and their families and, and it will result. so yeah there's, there's still going to be both an influence, an influx of mercenaries, role if you want to all mercenary. so we continue to do. uh, and there's going to be an influx of some amount of weapons, even if it's american weapons bought by data members, and then resend to you break. how long can they keep that up? that's going to be something the, the live and see what volume they can do. all right, we're going to live with their former u. s. army officers, dennis love at creative next us. thank you. thank you to the slice president says the landscape needs to engage on a piece plan details that washington and moscow are already working on the call tomorrow and said, i am ready to adopt your plan for peace. you can come back. i think that if he called and had a serious proposal for how he was gonna engage in the process, look,

there are details that really matter that we're already working on with the russians. we've already talked to some of our allies. he needs to engage seriously on the details of budapest has been a strong proponent of pays since the onset of the conflicts, their commitment to peace isn't just talk. but now putting that, put down by blocking it, proposed 20000000000 year old military aid package that europe wanted to send to key of. and now with washington looking to knock vladimir zalinski down a peg hungry is saying that peace talks must become a priority. the administration of us president donald trump suspended american military aid to ukraine. the positions of the us president and the hon. gary and government align instead of supplying weapons. and continuing the war, we must achieve a ceasefire and begin peace negotiations as soon as possible. as the a debate hits up with washington hitting pause and you're going to boost support, a new poll reveals equally divided sentiments among the public wall. a slight

majority of respondents from various european countries believe more funds should flow to key a that and thursday as and takes a nose dive when they're asked if it's their country that should foot the bill. senior research fellow at the global policy institute. jor send me, wiley says europe expects washington to pick up the slack as well. hungry is the one country that has consistently acted like the grown up in the room from the very beginning of from february 22 on hungary has urge the peace hungry has urged the europeans to go out and try and work something out with the president. putin and hungry has refused to go along with the, the transfer of a more material through its country. it said that they will not contribute anything to a ukraine's arsenal and will not allow. it's there true to be useful. all of us do a transfer. what materials do you agree? it's us, vice president and j. d. vance has been very vocal about his european partners

approach to ukraine. i want to play a clip a 1st, and then i'll ask for your comment afterwards. let's take a listen in the craziest part about this, sean is that sometimes you'll have your p and a heads of state who in public will pop up their chest and say, we're in it with president zalinski for the next 10 years and then a private. they'll pick up the phone and say, we keep this can't go on forever. he has to come to negotiating table. so i honestly don't care what the europeans say in public what, what a care is, what they say in private it. yeah, george, what are your thoughts on that statement from the vice president as well? i think that's a easily he's being very honest. the europeans talk out of both sides of their mouth. so, but essentially they know that they themselves cannot do anything for um, ukraine, and they know that it has to be the american. so when they make these public statements, you know, we gotta, you know, we have to do this, we have to do that for you credit. what they really mean is that the americans do

it. so when they do, you know, who went to advance stokes about oh, they pick up the phone and say this, the, you know, they were trying to curry favor with chrome. but essentially they kind of saying, we don't have anything to do. so you crate you, you have to do it so that way you know, we can do it. we don't have anything you know, mean, and we're not prepared to give up a nice, comfortable lifestyle on 6 week vacations, universal health care, you know, uh, guaranteed um, unemployment benefits. we're not going to give any of that up. it's up to you. americans. just go ahead and do it. the man lars prime minister is on a trip to moscow where he met with president vladimir, put in the southeast asian leader, offered his reasoning for supporting russia's right to defend its interest when it comes to the ukraine conflict. the dress handling of the man, thanks to russia's efforts, the world is moving towards multiple already. but western countries have begun to

oppose it, and that is why the situation in ukraine has emerged. the why is the west interested in russia because of russia has many resources. i am sure that every country has a right to defend itself, its sovereignty, its people, and its interest. if they are encroached upon checking that we understand the situation in russia and fully support the special military operations as cross now to our, to corresponding eager picking on vicar to give us the big takeaways from this meeting. the fault here at the kremlin, this meeting is still continuing. it started with the president for jim praising the friendship between russian myanmar saying that despite all the international sanctions that managed people find strengthen. while the prime minister of myanmar praised moscow was role in the construction of the multiple world and said that russia has been under western pressure for quite some time now because of its vast

natural resources. and he says that every country has the rights to defend. it's a national interest, so myanmar he says it completely supports moscow special in military operation in ukraine. now on the west official notes, the prime minister presented led me to put in with an old buddhist book, published in myanmar, which he says, predicted this friendship between the 2 countries and even the meeting between the 2 leaders. the also said that the 2 may have even already met at some point to during the previous alliance and how the delegations are still continuing to meet as we speak. so we're expecting more statements and the several bilateral agreements to be signed as well, which should help this relationship with develop even further r t correspond to anger fiscal navea guy. thank you. ok, us are opted in the serbian problem with with fits fights and smoke or needs taken over the opening session. a brawl started after opposition members challenged

assembly present anabetta bits, waving, batter, stating, serve be able rise so that the regime will fall the argument to send it into punches. subbing and tear gas being tossed 3 and peas or a quarter they hospitalized with spoken. a lation and one allegedly was injured by a stun grenade or these correspondent nickel a volume which brings us more details. this is the regular session of the serbian assembly and it starts at the on time on the 10 am a local time message said that the things quickly escalate to just an hour after may the shortly after 11 incidents occurred, as it said that there were fees buys control in the small phones and even the vice premier and the minister of economy, those rates fire extinguishers as a set, $3.00 members of the ruling, 5 to 2 members of the bottle and then to better seriously injure that. and as i found out, one suffers a stroke uh earlier to see how this happened. uh,

some members of the position parker just said that they will not be uh, they will not be attending today's session. but today is set to the do they have planned some acts of nobody expected of this kind of action. and as we talked with the some a position about this, but to those buses that are about to up the can, the national is by this little right, 3. but this so they're not liking the things that this stuff up to happen from the that's, that's what the guy kept them from the position in the party, but the pro european pro investor, well positioned by this week of his uh, dropping off the truck, you know, the gas and using fire his fingers since they've been using their 5th real fight between the and piercing the serbian assembly after that the serbian spots and the president of the sort of the on the assembly on the button that they just didn't want to intercept that this assembly, as the said, there was to $62.00 dots that for a plan the for this, this and one of them was the law amendment, the higher education,

but the law because advocation is one of the demand of the students before demand of the students that are doing the process and they're located in faculties and colleges for over a 100 days in serbia, just after the this, the things escalated to the serbian assembly part of the student so that the regularly during that action center felt that simple paid real fast clue gather the in front of the house of the assembly smell, but the protests that send those through then so that they're protesting for the day when to back to the college is in a big column. so everything is okay now, but we just have to say that some members of the national is the position that try to ingo physicians. i thought throughout the opposition. david's like of the things that happened today and we were, i was saying that the members of the pro vested opposition. so trying to provoke a civil war in serbia just, i just have to say that this was a big together you from the assembly of about to they even bigger gathering this
