this is a difficult situation, i don’t want to abstract myself from international support, internationalupport is important for us, first of all from the united states, great britain, france, but i think that there is still more today there is still an understanding in the american administration mainly that after the events of october 7, those terrible events for our country, for our people, for our people, which occurred 1,400 people were killed, including the truly terrible war crimes that were committed there , and also in recent days we hear, we hear, the testimony of our hostages, children who are returning from captivity by hamas , everything that they experienced there, we simply cannot stop, we do not have this right, for for us, this is a question of the existence of our state and the security of our border, citizens, this is an important component, therefore , naturally, we cannot distance ourselves from the international, from the international community, from pressure, but, i think, we will do everything possible, so that our goals are achieved. and you expect that, well, th

they are international , they are influenced by the international media environment.it means that this reaction is 60% actually the negative attitude towards the actions of the biden administration in connection with the zionist regime is completely acceptable because if the same survey is done in the european union in any of the european union countries, the situation is the same , so it seems that within days the future and maybe if, for example, israel resists a lot in the next few weeks. they have to submit to the global public opinion. anyway, we are witnessing that the axis of resistance has risen in west asia and in the middle east. he is using rational tools and methods. many countries in the world think of many strategists which actually falls into the trap of that initial extreme atmosphere of the axis of resistance, but we have seen that the resistance movement, hezbollah, the groups that are in iraq, the groups that are in yemen, in the best way , prevented the spread of the crisis by showing rational reactions to the issue. taking the necessary excuse fro

that is the will of the international community. we have all given lip service to peace in the middle east for too long. we have talked about a two state solution. there is a universal consensus that a two state solution is the only answer for security and peace for all in the middle east. we have not done enough to make sure that happens. there is enough blame to go around for everyone. and now is the time for us in the international community to step up, live up to our responsibility and do what needs to be done to bring in this conflict that has lasted for too long and caused too much suffering and spilled too much blood on both sides, to end, finally. i can only say that we are committed in the arab world and the muslim world to peace. we are committed to a two state solution. >> thank you. the prime minister of qatar, you have been active in conflict resolution. i know we will benefit from your point of view. >> this is about the future of the palestinian authority and what role they will play. >> actually, my colleague -- we a

thank you very much, it was the president of the international.

at large to have an international i would say international around that is organized around international law so that every country has to abide to international law. and in this case, it is very clear that the behavior of, of israel is, of course, opposed to, to those values at the same time in the united nations, for instance, one's one country like israel behaves in such a manner. there should be, you know, the records to the united nations security council where, you know, the members of the security council would be able to impose sanctions, international sanctions, in this case, to the country. and that he's violating international law. but we all know that there, you know, the police ago logic and the job political logic impulses itself because the united states would exercise its veto, right? so it's, it's a moment where at the same time, you see these very low desperation. but also where you can show the limits of the current international architecture that the tools of the air. but there are also political tools for those countries. one pose a uni latrell vision of, of, of, or,

gholamreza karimi, an expert on international issues . mr. karimi is one of the statistics published by the american cbs network, which in a survey he conducted said that 611 of americans do not approve of the policies of joe biden and his government regarding the military aggression of the zionist regime in the gaza strip. two other polling institutes also commented on this matter and said that in fact the democrats should be held accountable in this regard according to such a poll. hey , how do you evaluate the state of mr. joe biden's government in next year's american elections? yes, maybe the american government never imagined that the government would face a major crisis in the middle east in the final year of the government. and in a way, he was relieved that this is a safe area and he should focus his attention on southeast asia ok, but anyway, the biggest crisis has arisen in the relations between palestine and the zionist regime, and today the global public opinion along with the american public opinion , after all, the american pub

you are on the wrong side of international law, international humanitarian law, and basic humanity. so uh, this in itself is symbolic. a, there are a tremendous pressure so, so the rape and other arab and islamic countries are using diplomatic tools in order to encourage and convince those partners we have some minor success, not grades, but nonetheless, it's something that's moved for words and the right. there's a direction it's not enough. 9 we have to accept the reality. nonetheless, it is one small step and the right direction. and we have seen britson change a little bit, it's position friends as well. and we hope that the most significant position that as the us will see some positive developments or is it actually loading mask and twitter we where we get our information from the irish, like pictures and images more than they are? well, that is changing opinions and the nature of countries. it is difficult at this point to draw reliable a trusted links of causality is between point a leading to point to be nonetheless, we can say that ah, twitter or x and other uh, new social

international crime.ver the past two years we have been witnessing russia's blatant resulting in an unprecedented damage and destruction to ukraine and ukrainian people. estimates for recovery and ukraine is up to 411 billion u.s. dollars. only for the first full year four. it includes the monetary cost of infrastructure, rebuilding on people's lives. the cost of rebuilding our already protected to be 2.65 greater then ukraine's entire gdp. and justifies an unprovoked war through years of development and economic progress of ukraine. important the world bank estimates the potential related to territory on the russian occupation partner at eastern ukraine as well as the crimean region. it also does not forecast the long-term efforts required to rectify damage of destruction. as we crossed the two-year cycle the number 411 billion to be be verywell doubled. most importantly redress the millions of survivors. so what are the ways of forwards that are permissible in international law? we have options that are

international support, the international uh discrediting of the sianest regime, if it needs any more discrediting is very important, because we have to find ways to dry up that continual resupply and and support of the israeli regime, otherwise uh it will go on for very long time. i know dr. tim anderson that you came to beirout after visit to south africa to take part in a conference uh... a pro- palestinian conference uh, especially in at these very difficult times, can you tell us how the reaction of the people that took part in that conference was considering the genocide against the palestinian people at the moment? well, there's a lot of uh grief of course in the world amongst many many peoples who who are witnessing this this these terrible crimes, there are no worse crimes really in living memory that we've seen, and of course the propaganda war carries on in in uh in the us in particular or the anglo-american world let's say, that propaganda war has been seriously undermined, so in uh south africa at the conference we saw, this was organized by the global campaign for the re

stop rewriting international law to fit israeli crimes and stop calling for respect for internationalhile supporting an assault that has torn it into shreds. the palestinian people will not die in silence. the palestinian people will not die in vain. the palestinian people deserve respect. every people does, but we have earned it. we have paid the heaviest of price to earn it. we have survived every attempt to humiliate us over a century with barely any means. show us respect, not in words b ut in deeds. show us respect to our lives, to our rights. this is a moment in history, -- this is a moment in history, one where everyone will be asked where they stood, and that will determine who they truly are and what they really stand for. the entire international law lies on one premise, nothing justifi ates -- nothing justifies atrocities. when faced with atrocities, it is not your right to call for them to end, it is your obligation to end it. save lives. save lives. save our lives and their lives. heed that call by billions around the world, by an overwhelming majority of states from acro

on the international community to stop the crimes of the occupying regime which endanger international peace and security. when asked about tel aviv's. for committing this heinous crime, sharif said the regime is seeking to expand its genocidal enslot on gaza to the entire west asia region. one of the reasons is that the israeli regime wants to extend the scope of the war beyond the borders of palestine and they want to deflect public attention from the gaza war. the second point, which is important is that the israelis try to show of their aerial dominance. maybe these are the two main reasons because of which the assassination was committed. the irgc spokesman warned that israel must wait for a direct or indirect response as iran reserves the right to counter the israeli assassination. he added, the morterdom of the iranian commander will usher in a new era where the zinis regime will be the loser. shariff also touched upon the us support for israel saying washington is violating international law by funding and backing the regime's crimes in gaza. definitely one of their. strategies
