any time soon when it's a cross lot to paris right now and pick it up with our to contribute to rachel marston, who's sitting a finger on the pulse of training discontent. hi rachel. so listen, can you, can you tell me 1st? oh, i mean have that, has there been any reaction so far from officials in empowers? are they ready to listen perhaps to the people? well, you know, just another average day in france. i know it's a cliche to say that the friends were always protesting, but that's really what starting to happen almost every day. their protests at this point, the increase of francis retirement age from 62 to 64 years old has been ran through the french national assembly, not by democratic vote, but by mac holes prime minister, and he's a bad bone evoking clause 49.3 of the french constitution, now that permits the government to push through new laws in very limited circumstances without any vote whatsoever in parliament and cutting short any the discussion. now the laws on which this clause can be used have to relate to either budgetary issues or social security funding, which this matter of

so 12 whole years after his overthrow the checks coming due, and here's the blowback. rachel marston, none the president of belarus, is in beijing, on an official state visit in the statement during a meeting there. alexander lucas shanker expressed his views on china's global rural disc kit, though she wouldn't have without china today, it is impossible to solve any issue on our planet. the recent proposal, chinese president, she's you paying a peaceful development on our plan on avoiding sanction. so on good neighborly, lou. julie's beneficial development. sure, literally coincides with the policy of melrose. we have never set ourselves with half of coming together to work against the 3rd countries. we do everything in the interest of our people who we'll see g, t, n correspondent, young sion, she can take us through the significance of the trip now on what decisions were made regarding future cooperation. britain and she said the upgrade of the 2 countries relationship to an all weather comprehensive strategic partnership. last year we'll bring impetus to cooperation in all area. h

pipeline was moving so slowly for more details on those, those cross live now to our t contributor rachel marston. rachel is good to see you. now what have we learned about this latest media report on the nord streams sabotaged well after mainstream newspapers of record in both united states and germany. so the new york times and zeit came out on tuesday, not even hours apart with stories of anonymous officials in their respective countries attributing the north stream pipeline sabotaged to an equally unidentified quote pro ukrainian group. now it's britain's turn, the times of london now claims that an unnamed scandinavian delegation that was briefed by their embassy in brussels, about a private actor, absolutely not affiliated with keith that had sponsored this sabotage operation. what strange about this piece is that initially looks like a straight up and down analysis, but then it veers off into a lot of editorializing. for example. it's supposed that the reason why the identity of this mysterious private ukrainian entity was kept under wraps was to prevent germany from having 2nd thoughts ab

yeah, very interesting points as always, res rachel, thanks for that art contributor rachel marston. i rarely been so disturbed and heartbroken outside the world health organization chief as described his visit to syria in the wake of last month. devastating earthquakes, he's called on the international community to help those has been effective even before the big needs were increasing. while international aid was decreasing, but we must not close our eyes or turn our bucks on the city and people. we cannot let this be a forgotten crisis. i call on the international community governments. philanthropies, individual needs to dig deep to lift up. those who are enduring might have been loss. poverty. and the provision or something else of note to point out egypt was among the 1st countries to dispatch humanitarian aid, to syria, with the foreign minister visiting the country and expressing solid doroty with their brotherly people. his trip is the 1st of its kind since the 2 nations cut diplomatic ties after the soon end are spring and 2011. earlier, a delegation of high ranking r, a pa

what such a development could mean here, shortie contributor rachel marston really looks like europe is trying to get in on some of that military industrial complex profit action that washington has been enjoying using ukraine is a convenient pretext. who needs peace when a plan to settle in for the long term armed conflict is so much more profitable. so this new 3 prongs plan concocted by the european commission is supposed to help both the e. u and ukraine. and here's how they're presenting. the fundamental problem is tackled the rapidly decreasing ammunition stalks of e u countries and their inadequate supply production capacities to be rapidly increased. the proposal involves giving ukraine ammunition, that european countries say they already don't have enough of already. and also placing bulk orders of new ammunition for both block countries and for ukraine, kind of like when a bunch of friends i'll get together and decide to order pizza because it's cheaper to buy more of them like 3 for the price of $1.00 except with bullets instead of with pizza and with one guy who isn't rea

well for more on this, let's discuss this and cross live to all contributes at rachel marston, who's joining us from paris. thanks for joining us this evening. rachel. now this isn't, this isn't the 1st time the 20 stars refuse to compete in a major tournament. what more can you tell us? so this is the 2nd year that joke of it's currently ranked 1st in the world for men's singles has been unable to attend tournaments in the united states because he's chosen to not get the coven job. last year. he miss indian wells, the miami, miami open and the us open grand slam. all that came in the wake of that major fiasco after you landed in melbourne last year for the australian open the grand slam. he was grilled for 6 hours by border guards of one of the strict discovered regimes on the planet at the time before being banned from entry. at the time a previous coven infection was accepted by tennis australia for a medical exemption to the job requirement. and a visa to play in australia was issued on that basis. but the government said that natural immunity alone was never sufficient to enter t

of course, live to actually contribute to rachel marston joining us here live on the program. good to see you, rachel, to what exactly is happening here and what, what the prime ministers have to say as well. well, polish prime minister mateus mar. wiki is usually busy, browbeating germany, france in the us, in the rest of the west for not doing enough for ukraine. now poland is always leading the charge and demanding higher powered weapons for ukraine, and is quick to rummage through its closet for fighter jets and tanks when it can easily replace them with better weapons for itself. with all that defense assistant cash from washington and adjust reportedly billed the e u. 2000000000 euros for sending hand me down. weapons that it had to ukraine. yeah. why sell for a h n n? when you can get rid of it from your closet and replace it with chanel, right? it's like giving away your whole wardrobe to a friend, and then billing your parents for it. so of course, you're not walking around naked from a national security perspective. so poland has really been generous with ukraine when

and debates following the latest revelations, from the twist of files as are to contribute to rachel marston explain the 2nd year the joke of ich, currently right 1st in the world for men's singles, has been unable to attend tournaments in the united states because he's chosen to not get the coven job. last year he missed indian wells, the miami miami open, and the us open grand slam. all that came in the wake of that major fiasco after he landed in melbourne last year for the australian open grand slam. he was grilled for 6 hours by border guards of one of the strict discovered regimes on the planet at the time before being banned from entry. at the time a previous coven infection was accepted by tennis australia for a medical exemption to the job requirement. and a visa to play in australia was issued on that basis. but the government said that natural immunity alone was never sufficient to enter the country and deported him. but that rule has now vanished in australia, which isn't the case for visiting the united states. and that suits the white house just fine. while coven 19 is no longe

it's commodities are supposed to be a part of the agreement as well as arctic and ship it at rachel marston now explained. the comprehensive and frank conversation has once again confirmed that while the commercial exported ukrainian products is carried out at a steady pace, bringing considerable profits to kiev restrictions on the russian agricultural exports as the stunning place. how far the stones were, we determined upon tangible progress on the normalization of our agricultural exports, not in woods, but in deeds. so this deal is supposed to allow grain from both russia and ukraine to get out of the conflict zone and over to countries and need, notably in africa and asia. but russian foreign minister, sir, gala rav explain just a few days ago, and you might be shocked to learn this, that only half of that bargain has been upheld. and that's the half that covers ukraine shipments. you get the, the 1st part of the green deal package is the safe export of ukrainian grading from the ports of ukraine via the black sea. and the 2nd is the need to remove all obstacles to the export of russia

no, i don't think interpret rachel marston. thank you. let's go back to new york. now here we're not international. we keep going. moscow, new york, moscow, new york, the un security council having a meeting about concerns of russia's plans to deploy nuclear weapons in bella. rows not right now. the you want to rep to mozambique is paid parties involved to engage in constructive dialogue and to work together to find peace for solutions to their security concerns in the line with the principles and objectives. so do united nations charter which among other things pro he reduce the use or threat of force in international relations. the international community must stand united in its commitment to nuclear disarmament, non proliferation and promotional peace and security. while dwight there is simply no other civilized and peaceful watches available to us. i thank you. i now resume my function. as president of the council a representative of the united states has asked for the floor to make a further statement present. i apologize for taking the floor, but i need to r

here is to take a 40 contributor rachel marston. well polish prime minister, mateus mar. wiki is usually busy, browbeating germany, france and the u. s. and the rest of the west for not doing enough for ukraine. now, poland is always leading the charge and demanding higher powered weapons for ukraine, and is quick to rummage through its closet for fighter jets and tanks when it can easily replace them with better weapons. for itself, with all that defense assistance cash from washington. and it just reportedly billed the e. u. 2000000000 euros for sending hand me down. weapons that it had to ukraine. yeah. why sell for h an m? when you can get rid of it from your closet and replace it with chanel, right? it's like giving away your whole wardrobe to a friend, and then billing your parents for it. so of course, you're not walking around naked from a national security perspective. so poland has really been generous with ukraine when others are footing the bill. but when it comes to sacrificing its own economic competitiveness to ukrain

and had been demanding even more assistance well over now to what he contributed rachel marston, who has more and how key of top diplomat criticize the german government for not sending enough weapons. the ukraine foreign affairs minister is lashing out at both the german government and the country citizens in a new interview with german media belts to meet your collab bass said that germany is still not sending ukraine enough weapons. i think germany could really help me with ammunition including artillery ammunition. we sat down with ukrainian representatives and the german alms industry. and the german industry in my presence asked the german government for one thing to sign contracts saying that they were ready to deliver. so the problem is with the government, so there's a total lack of appreciation here for the fact that already german chance are all i've shoulds is going way out on a limb and risking blow back from germans by loading ukraine up with german weapons clay. but also took aim at german protesters, taking to the streets to demand peace, suggesting that by advocating

how thought a contributor rachel marston speaking so as it from paris? 2.5 tons of concentrated uranium or has gone missing from an old stock pile in libya that was not controlled by the country's government. the international atomic energy agency discovered the disappearance during a routine inspection. if the uranium falls into the wrong hands, they could potentially be enriched and used to make a nuclear weapon. the loss of knowledge about the present location of nuclear material may present a radiological risk, as well as nuclear security concerns. more than 2 tons of uranium has gone missing in libya. now the agency could not say when it went missing and the location is unclear at this stage. other than that it's in territory. no, under the console of the you impact antrim government, i have seen some speculation from nicholas security experts that it was removed from a remote site in southern libya. it's important to note obviously that the uranium is no enrich meeting, but it's not weapons ready. now the former libyan leader, mama gadhafi, renounc

defiance of western pressure to cut ties with russia. amid the war in ukraine, archie country took rachel marston, weighs in. the western process started to come to terms with the idea that the ukraine conflict is sparking a new multi polar world order that doesn't have washington at the center of it. diversity is supposed to be a good thing, right? events in ukraine and the resulting western sanctions have accelerated. the emergence of an eastern or a south eastern offers with alternative systems and structures. the result is even greater freedom of choice for the average person in the world. but here's how one prominent western publication has just portrayed. it is putin winning. it asks the world order is changing in his favor. it says if people around the world are increasingly rejecting the idea of being stuffed into a made in washington political and economic strait jacket, it's because of some kind of cunning manipulation by putin and not because of a, i'm forced air on the part of the west and the fact that people would just prefer to give the western clown show a pass these days. the wes
