of the the victorian violence reignite in syria as thousands. the reportedly killed in clashes between isn't on the alley wide minority likes to ousted president assad. whoa is peace. that's the claim coming from the brussels, where a whole case fee of fissions of agreed to massively minutes arrive and key for these train conflicts going in defiance of donald trump said to bring peace to who are and as washington save their lives edging close the road suggests the sick spending nato's collective defense close to you pray that one was out sending any italian troops that i think that would be a guarantee of stable, lasting,

effective security. more than some of the proposals that i'm seeing. and so it's certainly one of the proposals we are putting on the table, the a very good morning to you. it's 9 am here in moscow and you were watching on see international with the global news update. it's great to have you with us as always, our top story success harry and violence is erupt on the syrian coast is home to be our country's olive wife. minority. thousands of people have reportedly been killed in classes between easily missed a government troops and remnants of the assault military. and let's talk a appointments. the,

the salary, saws, the lighting up, the night sky o, the north western syria to moscow. this is all that reinforcements to raleigh to the area where a few has been declared. the pro, while the winds militants have been told to surrender, will face this is the was flat rep in the country since the collapse of the a saw the government in december. here's what we heard about the developing situation from a lot. talk here based on the list the h t s military of bombing, the villages and suburbs of la takia, the suburbs of jibley. the muslim l white council has called for a method of peaceful protest to condemn the attacks on civilians and le whites reports that coming out that the people of 3 villages in that area by the airport are leaving the house is in a refugee's. now they're leaving the house because of the bombing the clashes a very close to the airport. the

secretary and protest sends classes of also be reported in several of the syrian cities, including homes. so it's, it's like a thing online shows an attack on what is said to be in the white house that's got to late to stay south. now from our regional correspondence in beirut, steve sweeney. steve. good to see you this morning. so there's a lot of different reports emerging from the talk to her about the serial nami activity in the area and mit this a power and insurgency. just bring us up to speed on the latest to hearing that yes. what of course is valid to erupt. aid on on friday was uh thursday, sorry, and uh we've seen uh the siri nami, under the government of, uh how much elani re branded is it. uh, sharon rushing to protect me, the coastal areas of the talk to you and talk to sweat protest as that was storming the government buildings. um, we see a statement from a newly formed organizations,

branding itself the syrian resistance, which is made up of remnants of the full my armed forces under the previous president of pasha. aside now they have released a statement under the ability counsel for the liberation of syria, and they have code for people from across the country from the drew's community. she at suny, i'm goods to unite in what they say as an attempt to overthrow the government of uh, um it, i'll shadow and bring something kind of stability and build this syria for older. was probus when i would shout a i will said the president bush, i'll outside the box in december. now. those classes a took place overnights as well. there was a curfew implemented by the syrian government headed by. i'll shut off, but they were of course, a number of i'm bush is launched by the forces of the,

of the syrian resistance, a number of the government forces were killed in not. so i'm gonna put in the figure it searching some even as high as 17. now this doesn't really come as much as it was of a surprise. the situation in syria has really been attended bucks, waiting to explode. that being a sewage attacked on the other white community in those coastal areas and the talk to you in talk to is also in homes now the government of shut off says that these are the former associates of the president bush. it, oh, i saw on have riley to pull from across syria to try and put those uprisings down. but the, i don't want to say, well, they have been subjected to massacres. now we've spoken to quite a number of people that fled in december, hundreds of thousands of left the country, many of them across the board, a hit in to lebanon,

and they describe scenes of hardware. they were talking about the headings, kidnappings, x to do this, who executions on the systematic targeting of minority communities, particularly the lights and she community so that they have co that's around this you before. busy and uh, cb and resistance, that would be an uprising didn't and number of other cities as well, homes being one of them and also in some of the southern governors as well. so the situation now is incredibly volatile. now we have heard some international reaction . the saudi foreign ministry released the statement condemning the uprising, condemning the protest, pledging it support for the syrian government and have been done. the subsidies functions in the knolls, particularly around simply where they have said that they're prepared to go fight to bring the situation the on the console. now, again,

that happens skirmishes along with the, for the hit in lebanon on the eastern province of, of back, of these are being taking place over the last few weeks or minutes in some high tower. i'll just, um, trying to load these incursions. i've been pushed back last be by the tribal families to tribal communities in that folder area on the deputies all me has also it's rushed to the area in order to secure the liberties for the overnight we have heard that there was a gain, some scrub issues, that now this situation in syria, a guy who would buy is incredible. you bought this house and i'll shut off to cobra in december, the country has a pretty much being divided into 3 areas of consult in the north. the tow fishbock forces around the province in particular the syrian national army. then in the northeast, the survey and democratic policies, the code, the forces voltage which will box by washington. now again,

this situation has flared up that with this, between the city. and that's what i'll be in this, see me in democratic forces, they've launched an offensive and that has to be boxed by turkey, which has been foaming some of those curtis areas. and then in the south of a series, of course the is right. these have they a big carrying out operations that it was seen as a line dropped by many of course. soon after the full of assets, they took control of it. the minute tries a very close to the go down high safety and building a number of minutes the basis on saturday. the defense minister that is all costs. well, he cooled for the is very defense schools to be prepared to enter a territory on the outskirts of damascus under the guise of protecting the country's drew's community, which has come under attack. so is the mrs forces now, that hasn't been university welcomed by the trees to be and see what you're saying is ready as a manipulation old that cause in order for it,

is route to grab more more territory. so there's a very real danger that the country is going to plunge once more into a civil war. and of course, the free democratic and stable syria that we've been promised, well, perhaps, is not quite overseas. and many things with dazing as far as the corresponding states. when he's speaking to his live from day rate, thank you. it seems that issues like recession energy prices and michael and climate, not the biggest priorities and most you lead is ok. sufficient was in brussels. have instead of green to boost the blogs, military spending button unprecedented 800000000000 euro. i've received threats from russia. the european council calls on the board of governors of the european investment bank, e. i b to urgently continue to adapt the best practices for lending to the defense industry. notably by reevaluating the list of excluded activities,

and by increasing the volume of available funding in the field of security and defense. but there was some voices of reason in the you, the hungarian prime minister is one of the most vocal opponents. so minutes rise ation. victor overlays instead, endorsing the american leaders, push to bring pace to ukraine and all of europe. european commission revolved around president donald trump's peace plan. many european leaders, brussels bureaucrats, and heads of member states oppose the us administration's endeavors. they would rather continue the war as long as it takes hungry position, remain the same today as it has for the past 3 years. we believe that there is no solution on the battlefield and support the us peace plan. russell was rushed to raleigh support to keep the one going off of the west. suspend it is military aid on ship 8 shipment sound, intelligent sharing with ukraine. i'll tell you that sounds good 10 and now looks into how the loan running fun to see

a vanquishing. russia has become an obsession. for some european in europe is graves like one who can really play much. i'll throw, let, have sought to ground tugs graciously, feed is not a bad thing, because then, you know, that could be really a change in, in the, in the society. and, and, you know, there are many different nations the right now part the russia as well. i think if you would have a more like small nations it's, it's not a bad thing. give you. if it's a big bower, it's actually much a smaller and our tv star showed up and stuff, but it will snatch this historic john stuff. finally, chromecast russia, they haven't been this close to suppose, go to mine inside the kremlin, back in the 1600s. and that's not to say they haven't tried since the themes how to stop it. and then the $1700.00 sudden napoleon sets off for most of them in the

1800s. and then the bread scheme dropped would be americans, french canadians, in australia and the 1900s. then obviously that was hit law. so it's a pull track record for the europeans trying to hunt the back. but this time it will be different. it has to be because this time the states are higher than ever before. is the agenda is not just about ukraine. this is absolutely clear that if your brain falls, there will be a 2nd part of it. and the 3rd one and the ends, the end tensile amazing gentleman was not kid ourselves. who will not stop at you crane? well, the story is all the me a piece and brussels have to find the odds and on not speaking rustic with a but in the nation, apparently most at risk of putin as the imminent raton, of the us, us all campaign, doubting. well, it's in minutes. so how concerned are you about the potential of an actual

conventional russian invasion into the baltic states for now? we don't see the scenario happening as it so often the case fair has been pulled out to destruct izzy. it keeps the masses in line while behind play installs the political bigwig scheme and plots and the up the process. oh yes, sorry. the gaps out the back ukraine is the boon to make the rich even rich. of course, this increase in defense of europe is not separate that offer ukraine security and defense. it stronger to pin defense. it's a boost to print in defense and this to get past it for you. print, defend, the defense is also very important to boost our own defense. surprise was the rocket need, but the likely in coming job and johnson. i so said this in february,

it is out of the question in the near future that we will reform the debt break a we place a set this. germany in europe must quickly strengthen their defense capabilities. cd you see a few and s p d will submit a motion to amend the basic law so that defense spending above one percent of g d. p is exempt from the debt break. in view of the threats to our freedom and peace, the following must now also apply to our defense. what ever it takes when aging, not just on a pledge, but only the nations are re constitution, which caps the amount, borrowing funding can do to keep that out. pay for a country already and may cannot make total drums thought so risky moves by lots. we can only guess what made him do that 1. 80. sorry, 360 degree ton. maybe someone slip 10 of the latest numbers from the manufacturer. ryan mitchell,

whose don't have sold 99 percent this year alone. i'm working in march. in fact, for the last 3 years, all across europe, the military industrial complex is badly had time to cancel those checks. they come in, sol, spectrum, fost. the super cycle is clearly accelerating. in the 2nd quarter of 2024 alone, our sales increased around 50 percent and our result more than doubled, positive margin effects are significantly increasing our profitability. we have never seen such growth. we also expect annual sales growth of around 2000000000 euros in the coming years. and things that was before a sort of on demand came out with us almost one truly. and i don't like gift. however, pay to the you of course has also got the skin in the ukranian game, not just space in strong. does it to nice that you see a few on this before the will started, russell, find its own minerals still with kids ident fine, but the nation has 21 of the fuck

a minerals it does the plates as critical. everything from fight to jet still cause brake pads then of course that's b u. k. 2 under the car and leadership has become the sort of oh right, you remember? again, a funny story. he is also signed a mineral deal with selected state just a couple of days before trump took office with united states are be trying to be signed up to a deal that we provide security guarantees to a recog nomic development deal. the care solver has already signed them up to do so . the 1st thing it has to do is people have to take a step back and be honest with what's really going on. what's going on is that people are making a killing tony, literally what's going on is that the cells are pointed off. it's as a variety of gambling with in a tie and generation. so few praying in man. so they can get that hands on, lithium and comfortable to be all that good stuff because well, it's all just

a bit of a game, isn't it? the stuff. yeah. so let me use the phone you the arms race presents us with entirely new challenges and europe must take up this challenge, this arms race and when it of this one that was so much on the line, that clamoring to be locked into the negotiating room. otherwise, how enough will they know whether to suit the defense stops now late, so they need to work. it has to have your p as in ukraine, ukrainians and europeans are the ones who need to swing by here in europe. so without this is a need to you wouldn't just by moving any single. this is a faint jewelry show on simple the war and ukraine has become a europe, lifeline. and it's greatest scape goat without the people of paris were realized that president bad the scrapes and approval rating of 25 percent without the people of berlin. what on?

why the energy bills of 30 percent high as they used to be without to the people of london will out how that recall to me is bad. the breaking even know know, look at you crane. she have spiked by it's time for leaders who should have left long ago. and it is a lot to wait for europe to try and resurrect it's glory days. when it was a force to be reckoned with. a continent respect to the voice, listen to not just up a group of has beens been shown the door. i wish them luck. we got, the donald trump has announced plans to visit saudi arabia as why russia and ukraine are eventually expected to sign a us mediated pay. still, the american president mentions the importance of such an agreement and in helping prevent a new, clear. and i will say that we've made a lot of progress with ukraine, that a lot of progress with russia over the last couple of days. and it'd be great to

bring that to an end. so we don't have to talk that way. talk no class, be great of everybody. we're getting rid of the nuclear weapons and we have a russia and us have by far the most china will have an equal amount within 4 or 5 years. and it would be great. and we could all digital arise because the power of nuclear weapons is crazy. well, that's the of, into the details with all as it contributes a tar read. good morning to you, many things, but coming in to see is there president trump, that housing progress in peace talks about mentioning that a mistake? any details, he really knows that the capers on the edges of us states doesn't name what exactly could it be referring to? do you think? well, i think they're going to finally um, sort out the mineral deal and um, zalinski had sent him a letter a few days ago, basically, requesting say, hey, i'm ready for peace now. and of course, you know, russia has made it clear that they were willing to negotiate piece as well. um,

so i think uh, basically he's going to, they're going to have a, a guideline or guide posts because they can't actually have the piece until, you know, russia agrees and has their needs want it, you know, met as well. so this is another step towards that progress and hopefully it won't, you know, evolve into what happened in the, as the white house, but i don't think it well, and you have a lot of momentum towards this. you also have the you backing off, you have mate krohn. still trying to pretend he's napoleon but um and we all know how that ended. but um, you know, he's very much, uh trump is very much talking about the escalating nuclear weapons, which is huge, which had talked about that we haven't had a us president talk about getting rid of nuclear weapons in modern, you know, not since kennedy actually is. so trump is the 1st one to actually seriously talk about the escalating me in a little while. i mean,

well when that we have this meeting that took place in brussels on thursday, wednesday european countries lead. find the crone it's housing base as a turning point in history, they want to massively around pub defense spend a, they want to send troops to ukraine. the, it's holly and lead has even suggestive, extending nato is collective defense close to k of for that stop sort of agreeing to put it's highly in boots on the ground. let's take a quick listen to what she said by the way, is the best. what was you, what i meant to, i think it would certainly be much more effective. one thing that differs from joining nato, however, is to extend the same coverage that nato countries have to ukraine. so i think that would be a guarantee of stable, lasting, effective security, more than some of the proposals that i'm seeing. and so it's certainly one of the proposals we are putting on the table. you would want to sort of miss without anita saying that it's, it's really, it's only a goal and, but it doesn't want to get his hands the ti whatsoever. what are your thoughts? well,

she's saying she's not going to put soldiers or boots on the ground. i think she's giving lip service to something that simply ludicrous. that's a really chris idea to have ukraine protected by nato when it's not part of nato. i mean, you can't, you, it's not even viable. it's not a viable solution. the fact is, ukraine doesn't qualify. you know, 5 ways to sunday this and said, not only that, but russia has made it very, very clear that there should be no peacekeeping troops in ukraine by nato. that's the red line. and that, you know, the fact that the great britain, france, um, the, you basically, nato keeps trying to push back on that is really short sighted because it's not leading to a lasting piece. we want a lasting peace in order to do that. so it's, it's not going to be having you print anywhere near nato, the last 7 days of being particularly trying for a lot and see who's been pulled back down to was with a very hard stone,

the laser stressing down for ukraine coming from the us president special envoy, we can take a listen to what the case a catalog have to say as they brought on shall see things i mean by that click when we were in the oval office last week on friday. and i kind of give you the background a little bit, which is where we talk with presidents once getting for that meeting, there were 13, you a shot of her said hey alex and we said ok, this is like stage manager, this is what you want to say space was going to tell me and we have this is precious metal. so you can assign a deal the, you know, the sub lunch, every press conference that you stay dry. can you good to go? we continue to go. what happened became a very combat of who press conference. you don't negotiate police to discussions in public. you don't try to challenge the prism united states and the overall oversight. in fact, you need to sign with me and not to russians. so what are your thoughts on that statement and all the reactions to the american o b. reactions to the american criticism from ukraine and official. well, well,

let's face it. i mean, 1st and foremost, so lensky is not the legitimate president. he didn't hold us elections. and he canceled his alexis, he wouldn't win. so he's also not behaved in a way that really demonstrates that he wants peace. he's been trying to be very provocative with his political language to try to keep this war. you know, this proxy war against russia basically going this money laundry operation if you will. so you're having a shift in the conversation regarding this position because trump has made it very clear this proxy war will end with or without zalinski. so he either will sign his peace agreement or they will have to move zalinski out of the way and somehow get to the peace agreement. but either way, zalinski is done and his days are numbered. and he, i think he knows that. and he realizes that he's also, um, you know, really made a huge error when he came to washington

d. c. and demonstrated that lack of respect and lack of willingness to negotiate. so now he's back tracking with this letter to trumps, and use, you know, force willing now to assign some sort of framework. but we'll see, we'll see what happens next week and saudi arabia. yeah. or is it interesting when was the last day? doesn't seem to be able to make his minds up. he was saying he's fully on board with donald trump plans for peace negotiations. and then he was in brussels on thursday, looking happy is laurie. and they talked about the wrong thing that most spending for your brain. so what supposed to thinking is all about the money, right? i mean it's, it's, he's been getting a lot of kickbacks and, and money from this situation. so here you have storm are making all these promises that will not be kept by the way and, and the crown as well. and it's really interesting because they really are trying to keep the momentum going be even pledged. i think $83000000000.00 pounds,

i believe it was at that time, which is, you know, again, but it's nothing like what the us was doing in terms of billions of dollars. the usaid has cut off the us military. it has been either temporarily permanently cut off. it looks like it's pretty much cut off, so the spigot is closed. and i think the lensky is coming to the slow realization it's over. and how do they find an exit ramp? also here is got a lot of a gauntlet space and it's trying to figure out data is trying to figure out a way out while preserving of perhaps there's, you know, collective dignity if you will. things seems to be on arrival and get a record speed to an admin and who knows what we're going to be a week from now, especially off these folks in south here. every many thanks for coming and it's always good. good to get you. we'll take on that things tar reads also contributing . i thank you. thank you for the iris man, but i'll be repeating parliament has the cries that you use my statement, military high can middle the problems on the home front. so the latest episode of

going on the ground with option we're time see eric on south today, a ronald c for now. he's a preview office full conversation with collab daily billions being taken as a budget switch were designed to deal with the crime occurring. this has been used on defense, so it's a total for me. not only are we taking money away from work that could be drawn to deal with the environmental problems, they're going to defense, the carbon footprint of which is never tax calculations anywhere. so there's a huge price of the most of the cost of living prices all across europe and for ordinary citizens to hear that they can find a $100000000000.00 on weapons of destruction, to kill people and to have their own children be killed in the process there now the united states is telling britain, britain, which hosts thousands of us troops, all those us bases, all those weapons, just setting them do not share any intelligence with the lensky and ukraine. it's,

it's so public, as it was, that the britain just has to obey what the united states does, but these are all, so they really are occupying troops and you are totally, i mean it, this is the info here and something your opinion, leadership on the one hand their pricing talk and they're talking about minutes rising more and they're going to assemble ukraine and all this. but at the same time, they are almost waiting for him out the fees of trump also. and it's the worst tactic . what they should do is go and talk to russia themselves, develop an independent european foreign policy, the benefits, the people of europe in said they've been subservient to you. i sent in trust for so long. now it's almost the kind of break ends, but it's, even when the us is in their face, making it obvious that they are subservient. it's as i think these are astounding times a day or so as of torture. it is,

it is terrifying that these idiots are lost, constitutes the leadership of you're the always great to have your company, hey, on the see of next is documentary time. and we will of course be back with more news at the top of their life enough the the during world war 2, the germans with the help of the ship, the croatian revolutionary movement, that the independent state of croatia transported hundreds of people's in no way to work in force, labor camps. the germans wanted the work force to build roads and the infrastructure

in norway. so when they couldn't get enough prisoners from serbia, they contacted through social and the install of discounts that you had the death rate up to 82 percent each, which is actually higher done in the ultimate among the dozens of children. boy did the georgia evo, but not the, and i'll be a little go to the coast for this. and what should the, i type, the owner's school. that'd be good to to this is a goodness such as the food they had, the horrible conditions except from the t lease. many people died from surveys, a hunger as diseases. very few made it back home was for some of which of the to logic drove nickel 9 mozy but you know, in that process and they said it was in the middle of the.
