just like hong kong and macau agents believe that any country must recognize the government of p r. c. the people's republic of china as the sole legitimate government representing the whole china. if you go back to prison, she's speech of this morning. he stressed that sole efforts in advancing the practice, one china policy and one country to system and the cause of national were unification. so he also stressed and need to fully faithfully and resolutely implement this policy under which the people, hong kong administrator, hong kong and people of macau, i missed my car, both with high degree of autonomy. so what does a mean friendship for taiwan? so if china is now making better efforts to try to achieve what it paging cause, the national reunification, it means that beijing will also, you know, maintain some talks to make sure that taiwan would also enjoy this high degree of autonomy as what hong kong and michael are not doing well the front lines of the dentist republic russell of wagner group has been spearheading an assault against a strong hold of the queen. troops in the c

talks to make sure that taiwan would also enjoy this high degree of autonomy as what hong kong and macau are now, doing to the front lines now of the republic where russia's wagner group has been spearheading an assault against a strong hold of ukrainian troops in the city of our chum off schools. and in his black mood at the head of the rushman, the military group says the fighting has become more intense with kiev sending reserve forces into the battle from all different regions from the country. the baltimore. i'm fabulous. could you say the situation is difficult, very difficult, the enemy is cut throats fighting for every meter. and the closer we are to the city center, the harder the battles ukraine's throw an endless reserves. we are moving forward and will continue to move forward. we will not dishonor the glory of our russian weaponry people could. i mean, the wagner manager group says that russian forces are currently just a kilometer away from the city center. the air is being a focus of intense fighting for months with the entrenched ukrainian troops. now almost fully surroun

talks to make sure that taiwan would also enjoy this high degree of autonomy as what hong kong and macau are now doing and so as the multi polar world continues to blossom, the eastern european nation of belo, bruce, a close ally of russia has been strengthening is economic ties with iran. at summit in the iranian capital, the bela russian president, alexander lucas shanker, agreed upon a roadmap for development with the middle east and country. he said that iran is the cradle of civilization with a great history, though it has been struggling under american sanctions for decades. which is tried to impose it so called democratic values on the country. this is all according to lucas shank. i am pleased to visit her on the capital of present day or on which has become the cradle for one of the most culturally advanced civilizations. through the territory of which trade routes passed long before america was discovered, your ancestors knew about logistics. exports in transit, much more than those who have been strangling your country with sanctions for more than 40 years, trying to instill t

so we're that and we put that question to macau as good as the director of the high, much better foundation. think tank insulin, nicky. unfortunately one cannot see that this was complete. can expect it from the very beginning with a system. he's using a ton of traffic lights or for issues with active and the jobs right now with the fact that it was 517, and a lot of major reforms, not a lot of the major investment. somebody me ever since. and today with the model for the development, 19th century, a is not on a very large enough, but it's also carry just one percent of that was all going through the country each year. so with that, with michelle, it's good. it's from the i like both foundation, think tank and facility speaking to us earlier. let's take a look now at some of the other news headlines from around the world. turkish president, rec type at one has confirmed the general elections will be held on the 14th of may as plan despite disruption caused by the catastrophic earthquakes. in february, it was unclear whether organizing a pole would even be possible in the regions devastated

it's about granting the status of special autonomous regions, uh hong kong and macau respectively inety-seventh and ninety-ninth years, as we see, china does not deviate from its obligations. yes, the west, of course, finds a reason to criticize, not this, but china shows that these areas should be managed, uh, the chinese who live there, no one said that someone from the outside should manage these administrative territories, so china is taking protective measures, but he does not deviate from the obligations of the agreement. and another example of m-m signing from the russian federation

his critics alleged this influence even encompasses the jailing of rivals. former president, macau soccer sh, busy after being forced into exile overseas, was tried in absentia, arrested on his return to georgia in 2021, and is now in prison on charges of abuse of power during his term in office. but support to say they attempted and amnesty international calls his incarceration an act of political revenge. his imprisonment is a fundamental problem too, because as our own prime minister missed that i was really said, if he wouldn't be put to the black that we wouldn't have arrested him. that said, the oligarch who asked him also has his supporters vanish, bitty, they say is now really just a philanthropist who exercises little real authority. their perception is, sir, because so on and off he has been prime minister and leader of the party at some point he and asked about his retirement, but then came back on. but as member of the party, i have not seen much of his interference. we wanted to ask vanish really directly about claims of his far reaching hold on george and politics at his sta

they are only for short trips to hong kong and macau. also tourists on the island.le, in transbaikalia on the border with china , a huge traffic jam of heavy trucks has accumulated, waiting for their turn for several days to leave china . vladimir lishenko found out the reason. the queues at the international checkpoint, zabaikalsk , are now stretched out from the chinese side drivers share videos of many days of downtime and spend money on food and accommodation today left china lived there for 12 days. it is very costly at 2,000 a day. consider that 24.000 left there. it would seem that everything restrictions have been lifted. what is the reason, and the fact is that today china has given priority to new specialized equipment , which is supplied in large quantities from under the sky to russia, these bulldozers, truck cranes , tractors, loaders, on the eve of the road and construction season, are waiting in the regions of our country, if we are over the past 17,000 979 units were transported for a year. this is a new technique, then this year , literally in 2 mon

desert, you know, just on oil wells, uh, that's what we saw as well as the mining business somewhere in macau and allowed to build skyscrapers there. and so on and so on . what in ukraine will allow to build a new ukraine? i think, first of all, we have competitive advantages that are natural and this is actually attractive for the rural economy and accordingly, we need to build the next level - this is processing. and this is actually very important here, integration into the european union, we see how, for example , there, the same smoking ours before the war was such a big threat for european manufacturers, because we were here for poland was ukrainian pork was evil . that is, we can be competitive here , we can produce there first under the private brands of supermarkets , then bring our ukrainian brands to the european market. then the next thing is that our neighbors in the western countries of central europe went this way, it is simpler industrial production, because you know very often in our country there is such a thing, from the fact that we are a raw material supplement of the wes

ministry of finance found out that goods were supplied to moscow through china , including hong kong and macaunia , turkey, uzbekistan and other countries close to russia were the facts of the use of company representations for international bank transfers, the reluctance of buyers to provide data on the final use of the product, and this directly indicates that this the intermediary acted in the interests of the russian federation, even cases where there is a difference between the client's ip address and the country where , according to him, he does business, will be monitored now, that is , the priority now is not to introduce new restrictions, which means not to strengthen those that have already appeared this year, this is our goal everything what are we doing persecuting putin's friends and the elites who help maintain putin's personal wealth, he does not have a personal bank account, the entire russian economy is his account, accompanying restrictions against the economy , restricting the elites who surround him, we beat and on his personal wealth and part of our strategy to limit russi

resolutely implement this policy under which the people, hong kong administrator, hong kong and people of macau admins, mac are both with a high degree of autonomy. so what does a mean friendship for taiwan? so if china is now making better efforts to on to achieve what it baiting cause, the national reunification, it means that beijing will also on the, you know, maintain some talks to make sure that taiwan would also enjoy this high degree of autonomy as what hong kong am i call are now doing felicia, let's try to say the china and russia 2 of the biggest players right now developing the multi polar world. nearly every week, we're seeing new strategic partnerships between countless developing nations as they essentially stand up against the uni lateral world. order you might as well call them the deep dollarization cognition. read more about that at r t dot com the meantime we are back at the top with with no agenda young her little. yup. agree. mused why did michael? i mean, she was. so i shoot, why did it stay you did that he didn't play you can, you can i let her know important thing with.

ship arrivals in shanghai, and then they will ease restrictions for those arriving from hong kong, macautravellers going abroad, up till now there have been about 20 countries group tours could go to now they are extending this to 60 countries, one analyst i have been speaking with said they made the choices on which countries these will be somewhat politically perhaps those countries that have been more cordial and relations with china, or have access to this on that list, as well as the fact they say it as being about which countries airlines feel they will be able to get critical mass from, as you can imagine airlines have struggled through three years of tight covid—19 restrictions and one analyst i have spoken to and inside on the chinese travel spaces it will be very much so in consultation with these airlines as to whether they feel they may be able to get permission to go to, italy was one country mentioned, it will be a staged, slow reopening, for a sector that has really felt the effect of three years of tight covid—19 restrictions. now to india where air pollution is becoming

quite recently , this is about granting the status of special autonomous regions, uh hong kong and macau , respectively in 1997 and 1999, as we can see, china does not deviate from its obligations. yes, the west, of course, finds a reason to criticize, not this, but china shows that these areas should be managed, uh, the chinese who live there, no one said that someone from the outside should manage these administrative territories, so china is taking protective measures, but he does not deviate from the obligations of the agreement. a another example hmm signing an agreement with the russian federation side by side with friendship and cooperation, because after our history during the soviet union, a difficult legacy remained, uh, they were able to find aside. how to settle this? uh, they made this agreement for him for 20 years. it's about the length for another 20 years , the chinese are retreating. uh, there is an agreement on friendship with belarus uh-huh, he will soon be 10 years old. and this agreement is sacredly respected and even developed. yes, so i would say that what i see i
