so the u. s. sector stayed anthony blinking has been in hanoi for talks with prime minister pam, and chin and other leaders. his trip came just after the 50th anniversary of america's withdrawal of combat forces from south vietnam and the end of its direct military involvement in the vietnam war. lincoln infused about a new era of corporation without mentioning vietnam's, giant neighbor china. i also focused on how our countries can advance a free and open indo pacific one that is a piece and grounded in respect to the rules based international order. when we talk about free and open, we mean country's being free to choose their own path and their own partners. and their problems will be dealt with openly. rules will be reached transparently and applied fairly and goods ideas and people will flow freely across land. the seas, the skies in cyberspace. while for 20 years, the u. s. was at war with north vietnam. the legacy of the conflict linger is on with chemical agents, and unexploded bombs st

given the u. s. tensions with china right now that all doug has done was his job as a flight instructor. is there any meet on those bones? i mean, the us china tensions the new office pack. is that all part and parcel of this extradition game? yeah, i think the, the united states, the, by the ministration has the democratic party, even more than the republican party has made this kind of bifurcation between us and them. whether it's russia, whether it's china, these countries have been labeled as enemies potential, you know, aggressors against the united states. this has a lot to do with the substantial sums that are provided to the military, $854000000000.00, which is more than the military budget. so the next 9 countries combined including china and russia. so i go into israel and doing this kind of stuff, you know, all sorts of american citizens who worked in mercenaries for the i d. f. in essence, i had the same in ukraine. there is no, there are no repercussions for that. so again, it's the t

there's a quad floor in good in india, japan, u. s. u k. a kwan for which is very much of an anti chinese grouping. l can be seen, is that a chinese grouping and is also august a u. k, u s. the australian. what is it a u, a u k u s alliance, which, which also can be seen very much as an anti chinese grouping. certainly the chinese see it that way. and so i would say that since the bomb administration, the sense the confrontation has deepened and that, and it was a little blurry while during the above administration. but it's now quite sharply defined. are getting, getting more sharply defined. right. and what about donald when it is when it comes to the issue of the after we were mentioning russia moments ago, and specifically the war and ukraine? because what we found recently was that vietnam did not vote when it comes to you. and general assembly resolutions, vietnam did not vote with the west condemning russia's invasion of ukraine. so what do you think of that? i mean, there must be growing pressure on vietnam from the west, and partic

the u. s. he millions of dollars to these opposition groups and supported this violent coup against the government. and it should be noted by i'm a practicing roman catholic. okay. but the catholic church in nicaragua is incredibly reactionary. they were part of the coo, there were caches of arms found in various churches are various creased, oversaw torture in the churches are met, one man who lost his arm after being tortured and in the church that he attended. ah, so this is not about repressing the church or repressing civil institutions. this is about a coup attempt that was violent, that killed. ah, the statistic i saw was something like 220 people died during the insurrection, and it was about 5050 on both sides. okay, $22.00 police officers and that created billions of dollars and property, destruction, and yes, damage the economy. ah, which of course was followed by several rounds of economic sanctions by the united states. a which yes, have done damage to the economy of nicaragua,

not only between the u. s a u. k, but it would appear that when you look at any random country, the u. s. asked for anybody for any reason that country almost always acquiesces, but it's not true the other way around. yeah, that's exactly right. and we should also be clear that in the case of julian, as i mentioned before, he's not a us citizen. and he does not commit a crime. so the hypocrisy is not limited to this case. there are numerous cases, including the case of house on the stuff of some nasir in milan, which i can go into if you want in 2003 the u. s. has one set of rules for others. another set of rules for themselves are a more to come with chris hedges. don't go anywhere, chris. coming up next. the united states keeps extradition numbers under wraps. the mystery around just how many people the u. s. government brings from a broad and forces to stand, trial are unknown. we'll discuss it when we return. sit tight, the m o will be right back. oh, no. hungary has been a member of the european union and nato

the u. k is censoring vital information on who really shots protests as the somali land, the somalian break we region in clashes between pro somalia protesters and security forces. this comes after a year, long funding office security forces, known for numerous killings of civilians, but somehow decided to hold them for reasons the a not disclosing the disclosure of information. detailing our relationship with somali land could potentially damage the relationships between the u. k. and somali land, if the united kingdom does not maintain this trust and confidence, it's ability to protect and promote u. k. interested through international relations will be hampered, which will not be in the public interest. the censorship decision was made in response to a freedom information requested by declassified u. k. concerning a demonstration in the but to the contest, the city of last a not over the new get around 20 pro somalia activists were killed to dozens more were injured. and many people are c

u, and the u. k. international obligations regarding combating terrorism and set forth in the united nations charter over the past alleged gross rights violations by the iranian official harsh cracked down on hundreds of thousands of protesters. as always, we appreciate your company here on our t n. ah, frederick military intervention in ukraine? yes. ah, hello, i'm manila in some 50 percent of countries around the world. but is the same true when other countries demand with pulitzer prize winning journalist chris hedges. alright. and australia, national has been the center of now locked away at a maximum security prison awaiting extradition, ugly, especially since for decades the u. k. has the coolest near or u. k. air base. the u. s. rejected the extradition imbalance between the u. s. and the rest of the warranty on the assange extradition trial is post of the chris hedges report on the real news network. that would be of julian assange. it would appear that his attorney's now data from the d o. j

u. s. have just launched their largest joint military drills more than 17000 forces are participating in the exercises over the next 2 weeks. chinese government has warned the philippines against granting the us access to more military facilities. bonding below has more from manila assure mr. sure, everything that is happening here right now as provocative or as a response to chinese ashes in the south community, as well as in the taiwan street. so in case a significant timing here is very significant, although it is worth noting that these exercises have been planned for months and months and months. and we've known that they will be happening this week through to the end of april. north korean leader kim jogan has called for his country's war deterrents to become more offensive in nature as tensions increase with south korea . and the u. s. state media has released pictures showing the the kim jogan pointing areas in south gray on a map during a military meeting. pentagon officials say

the u. s. condemns other countries for violations of nuclear treaties never brings up the fact that it was america that, that abandoned the intermediate nuclear forces treaty under donald trump. america is very aggressive and truly adheres to one standard for itself and completely different standard for everybody else. america never apologizes, never doubts for a minute. that it's anything other than correct. no sees no reason to say, sorry for the, the bombing of hiroshima next saturday and actually 45 won't even really discuss it in any kind of reasonable humanitarian way. so there are their attitude is very, very, very unrepentant and very confrontational. they will not take any kind of pushback on this issue. russians referenced, children's rights commissioner has been assisting child evacuation efforts, prevent battle ukrainian areas and so started the conflict last year. but the international criminal court has branded her a war criminal, and issued arrest warrant for her actions. here

while the u. k has signed trade deals and agreements with more than 70 countries, and one with the e. u, since his departure from the block in 2020, the terms of the majority of those agreements were rolled over from its previous membership of the e. u. the australia deal was the 1st trade agreement negotiated by the u. k. since breaks it, the u. s. is a significant trading partner accounting for at least 16 percent of total u. k. trade. but a free trade deal between the 2 nations has told. well, johnny is now from london, is vicki price, who is the chief economic advisor at the center for economics and business research? vicki, welcome. by its own reckoning, the u. k. government estimates this will increase economic outputs by less than 0 point one percent. so really just how significant is this? i think the significance is mainly not highlighting the fact that the u. k wants to be a global player rather than necessarily the implant you may have on g d p, and hopes that that will lead to maybe mo

and u. s. secretary of state antony blink and tried to downplay china's role in all of their saying that beijing only facilitated the meeting and didn't really have a real part in brokering the relations. i think it is probably one of the reason is that to washington is a bit outside of the realities and there's a lot of dispersion when it comes to foreign policies. i think it's a saw you mediation. if you think about the middle east, the middle east has always been for the us. you know, there playground, you know, it was a, you know, they, they were the applied the mom when duck shall they fall from the west. they want the thought that middle east was there, tough and it is a kind of humiliation here you have finally, adults in the room, you know, there was, there were kids like the u. s. like, acted like a strategy and, and it's a kind of you mediation for the you of infrastructure, which is the best and world initiative. i think we should, we should really focus when he comes to geopoliti

and u. k. intelligence agencies, according to newly acquired signals, intelligence, allegedly highly classified documents from us. intelligence have been linked online in recent weeks. they claim to prove the scope and scale of washington spying practices. not just on his enemies, but on his allies to including the ukrainian president. however, the u. e is dismissing the claims that it is conspiring with russia hauling the allegations categorically false, so far. the size of the actual breach of national security is not known, but the white house has stated that such information has no place being public. this is, again without confirming the validity of the documents. this is information that has no business in the public domain. it has no business, if you don't mind me saying on the pages of, of, from pages of newspapers or on television, it is not intended for public consumption. and it should not be out there. what is certainly going on. i think my interpretation is that by that has a ve

the u. s. and also european union have imposed illegal unilateral sanctions targeting multiple state institutions in nicaragua, including the military, including the police, including the judicial branch and the judges. including also by the way, numerous state on mining companies and other state on companies. and what they're also referencing here is an attempt to prevent the nicaraguan government from using its own natural resources to benefit its population. for instance, there's gold mining that happens in nicaragua, and it was done by a state owned company and then that gold revenue was used to help fund social programs and fund the government. instead, the u. s. imposed sanctions and the u. imposed sanctions targeting the state on companies because what they want is their own companies to exploit the natural resources in the labor of nicaragua, and they're still are by the way, despite the sanctions there still are foreign corporations here in nicaragua that are exploiting nicaraguan labo

the e u. thank them. in return. in today's proceedings, the russian foreign minister emphasized what he's emphasized previously during this visit to the united nation, which is that russia seeks a world with international prosperity and development, and that the efforts by the united allegedly involved in the killings. ortiz africa correspondence no local yukon gave brings more details. the u. k is censoring vital information on who really shot to protest. as the somali land, the somalian break we region in clashes between pro somalia protesters and security forces. this comes off to a year long funding office security forces, known for numerous killings of civilians, but somehow decided to hold them for reasons the a not disclosing the disclosure of information. detailing our relationship with somali land could potentially damage the relationships between the u. k. and somali land, if the united kingdom does not maintain this trust and confidence, its ability to protect and promote u. k. inte

we've seen the u. s. escaping. i've gotten this done. they see the u. s. not being stable ally, so they need to, to hedge their bets and somehow i think there's a, there's a whole slowly we might have actually some, some kind of piece in it. maybe with this, how push 1 may be a long term solution of the listing in the issue coming up next bricks has been talking about expansion for many months now. so saudi arabia, normalizing relations with iran. will this basically secure the addition of the dual into the new economic block? we'll discuss it when we return with angelo giuliano, the type the m o will be right back. i ah. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race is on, often has very dramatic development. only personally and going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical time time to sit down and talk ah, welcome back to the m o. i'm manila chan, bricks b, s, c o c s, t o, all these acronyms of powerful allied nations anchored by china and russia. now th

the u. s. threatened and actually impose sanctions against some of the leaders of the i c. c, until they backed off from us and their desires to investigate us for activities in afghanistan. so i think the south african president is right, that the i c c is you know, 1st of all, not a total global body. and 2nd, they kind of pick and choose who they go after, depending on who's putting pressure on them. and then when they do feel that pressure, they either, you know, move forward or, or back off what you're hearing now from the a and see leadership is they want to move forward and, and take whatever legislative action would be necessary to move forward in removing from the i c c, i think as they have closer ties with russia and with china and the other fritz nations, i think it's, it is inevitable. the u. k. foreign office has refused to disclose vital information about who committed atrocities in somalia. at the end of december, over 20 pro somalia activists were killed during protest in th
