i was in a round table before the house foreign affairs committee this week talking specifically about this bill and how it affects austin. and this is-- the thing is, this bill is a really hateful bill. it even has a hateful title that talks about something like against the assad regime in syria or something, a title like that. and what it calls for is no engagement by the united states government, no engagement by businesses doing business in america, and no engagement by our allies. that is entirely ridiculous. and the impact on austin by his government would be a life sentence, if we cannot engage, we cannot bring austin home. >> and so, i want to talk about who is behind this bill and how did this bill get approved on the floor with suspended rules 389 representatives signed onto this bill. those would have been asked to talk about what the bill is and what it's about, don't know. they can't tell me what they signed for. they just knew, here is this bill, i'm going to see my constituents in two days, i want to get a long list of bills completed. that's how that happens. so the rea

chairman of the foreign affairs committee of the french parliament. appealed to the government to liftaps the first, has actually already done so, the kingdom's minister of foreign affairs david cameron brought good news to kyiv in early may. ukraine has that right, just as russia strikes inside ukraine, you can totally understand why ukraine feels the need to make sure it defends itself. however, the key word in this question is for the united states is the largest supplier of weapons to ukraine. during a recent visit to kyiv by us secretary of state anthony blinken, he was asked why the us had not yet revised its approach, blinken replied evasively. we did not encourage or create opportunities for strikes outside of ukraine, but in the end ukraine has to make decisions for itself as it chooses. to fight, or how to wage war in defense of our freedom, sovereignty and territorial integrity. according to the new york times, blinken supports lifting restrictions on hitting, at least on the russian border territories, but within the biden team there is no unity on this issue. the us presid

the united states foreign affairs committee, one of the main russophobes makol , openly demands thateep into russia. the proposal immediately finds support. as for they didn’t do it, but ukraine will have to make its own decisions and will make them. ukraine should be given the opportunity to conduct the war as they themselves consider correct. and this is not even silence, which is a sign of agreement, this is direct approval of the simmering election race. washington is urgently scaling up the ukrainian conflict, experts said. decisions are made hastily, and this despite the fact that the american army is on the battlefield with the russian one. on the battlefield, russian troops will win, they are battle-hardened, and we are not just talking about combat hardening, they have experience in using modern technologies, tactics and methods of warfare, they know how to use defense against drones, which the americans have not had to deal with the thing is, we are still acting according to the patterns of the cold war, our methods are as old as time, the biden administration is sorely lac

the shocks of everything that is happening and the people of france, the chairman of the foreign affairs committeeean-louis boulanche, calls on macron to give the armed forces of ukraine carte blanche for attacks on russia, in response to this, the french do not choose words, let him take a backpack and a gun and go to the battlefield, proof that ignorance and stupidity do not spare anyone and... nato troops under the guise instructors will be sent to ukraine, this will be a recipe for disaster , they will violate one of the few remaining red lines preventing the war in ukraine from escalating into a direct conflict between russia and the west. the responsible state shaft warns about this, but daily beast reporters openly admit that the ukrainian army is massively addicted to alcohol and drugs. according to the publication's interlocutors, many ukrainian armed forces soldiers drink while on duty, and some, while drunk, kill civilians and their own co-workers. live bait in an interview to german journalists, the militants literally acknowledge the powerlessness of the kiev regime. bk. we're really

so, during the hearings in the foreign affairs committee of the house of representatives, which is the lower house of the american congress , us secretary of state anthony blinken. this is how he answered the question of one of the congressmen who were present at these hearings about why the official washington has not yet included russia in the list of countries sponsoring terrorism. secondly, says mr. blinkin, this recognition could hamper the joe administration's efforts. biden to force russia to pay for all the damage it caused to ukraine during the war, and to make these payments from its sovereign assets. and then mr. blinkin explained why: if russia is recognized as a sponsor of terrorism, then these assets will be blocked. no, of course, i thank all our american partners very much for the way they helped, are helping and will continue to help us in ours. fair fight against the russian invasion, but vasyl, you don't think that it is any this is, you know, a tactic of double standards, i don't know why, why the european union, which also has, for example, in brussels, in belgium,

this is what us secretary of state anthony blinken said during a hearing in the foreign affairs committeese of representatives of congress. he emphasized that the task of the usa and its allies is to supply the ukrainian army with the weapons it needs. he was also supported by the speaker of the house of representatives, mike johnson, who emphasized... that ukraine has the right to wage war as it sees fit. earlier, a group of congressmen appealed to the head of the pentagon with an appeal to officially allow ukraine to strike russian facilities. tostin has not yet responded to the appeal. will ask nato to shoot down russian missiles over ukraine. this is the main message of foreign visits volodymyr zelensky, which are scheduled for june, politico writes, citing its own sources. currently, the head of state plans to visit france and italy, the newspaper reports. zelensky will also call for the seizure of russian assets for military support and reconstruction of ukraine. minus one more russian attack aircraft, the ukrainian military shot down an enemy su-25 in the pokrovsk region of donetsk

us now is democratic congressman gregory meeks from new york, ranking member of the house foreign affairs committee congressman if netanyahu addresses congress, do you intend to go? well, i think i have the responsibility to be there at the ranking member, but i'm very upset with speaker johnson because of his snub of president ruto bhutto. last night, he exit first african head of state to be here and almost 18 years so since anyone has had a been able to address the full session of congress and to have him snub and the way that he was just shows disrespect. i think of an african nation. as you see that all others that have come have been honore with reference to being at a joint center it's and of congress. so for the speaker to make this announcement even while president ruto is here and snubbed him, just seems to me that speaker johnson just playing political games here. >> if i'm not mistaken, you did skip the 2015 address by netanyahu to congress. so you did not go to that one, but you would go to this one i did not go to that one because i was in actually the honduras within vice president b

he is on the house oversight and foreign affairs committee. sir. thank you for taking the time to be with us today. your reaction just first to the us pausing shipment and of these bigger bombs to israel no, thanks. >> thanks for having me. yeah. look, it is also arch of posturing and messaging that's going on publicly for right now. we were hoping that we would get a cease fire. i think that's what the american people were hoping. i think a ceasefire is needed in the region in exchange for the release. so hostages, but unfortunately, hamas continues to not to agree to the cease-fire on the table. in fact, they sent out ceasefire propaganda yesterday that allowed the world absorbed, which it was completely false obviously, the hope is that the operation in raffa is very limited. but obviously there needs to be additional pressure on hamas two agreed to a cease fire. and all of this posturing that's going on. unfortunately, just it continues to relieve hamas of any pressure to agree to a ceasefire when you say posturing, do you mean withholding 2000

we saw the head of the belgian foreign affairs committee have the same probl.r belgian prime minister says his phone was hacked by chinese intelligence services. there is a big uptick appeared i don't know what the western authorities are going to do because it seems like a bit of a problem. >> one last thought. tiktok as we expected have announced they are going to challenge a u.s. law that could force a nationwide man on the app. not entirely surprising. presumably with the backing of the chinese state. >> the backing of the chinese state, i don't know if that would help them. it is often humorous to me to see for instance chinese diplomats and state journalists going on twitter to voice support for tiktok when the company itself is trying to convince everybody it has no connections to the chinese state. it is no surprise they are going to challenge this. in europe we had a story last week where president venr line said she did not rule out banning tiktok here. i think that is a long way away. it seems to be on to a bit of a hiding to nothing in the united st

and the head of the foreign affairs committee of the french parliament, jean-louis bourlange called onthe taboo on ukraine sending french weapons to russian territory, quoting mr. bourlange: for france, which has long expressed its desire to be at the forefront of solidarity with ukraine and inter-allied coordination. it seems that the time has come to lift the prohibition which it has hitherto imposed on this matter, as the english and americans have done. why can ukrainians be denied the right to respond with blows to attacks, the victims they become? right council, excludes the right to defend the aggressor's territory. mr. volodymyr, why is this discussion taking so long and why does ukraine have to confirm every time that we need to strike on the territory of the russian federation, because they are actually preparing the next attack from there. others on duty drink and cook.
