u. s. secretary or u. s. general christopher can volley said this week of western tanks, quote, there is not a particular weapon system that is a silver bullet. a balance of all systems is needed. so these statements by actual u. s. military experts clearly diverged from the ideologically driven take of politicians who keep framing western tanks as some kind of magic solution for military victory for ukraine over russian forces. but even joint us joint chiefs had general mark. milly said last november, he was at this press conference to on friday by the way, ballasa member. he was saying the probability of ukrainian military victory defined as kicking the russians out of all ukraine to include what they claim is crimea is not high militarily and mili added at the time, quote, president biden. and president zalinski himself has said that at the end of the day will be a political solution. but on friday, zelinski made a direct request for the new tanks to the nato defense ministers meeting in germany . poland p

u. s. market economy or the u. s. freedom or the us democracy. can interesting figure to bring, you know, less than 10 percent of western companies operating in russia have actually left since the conflict started in ukraine. that's the findings of a study by a swiss institute, which my colleagues were associate marina culture ever talk through earlier. what we have is that less than 9 percent of companies have left the russian market. and from those we have of course, american ones, european ones and japanese firms. the one stop stayed behind, the majority of them are german and closely followed by american. and again, we have the japanese and all this of course comes as we have politicians and business lead meeting in switzerland at the world economic form and double 2nd year in the row where we are not seen of russian business men, russian officials, spots. they are the talk of the town if you will, because apparently behind the scenes everyone is talking well, how much longer can we continue isolating a roster from the global arena? because o

now, even nato supreme allied commander, europe, or u. s. general christopher or can volley said this week of western tanks, quote, there is not a particular weapon system that is a silver bullet. a balance of all systems is needed. so these statements by actual u. s. military experts clearly diverged from the ideologically driven take of politicians who keep framing western tanks as some kind of magic solution for military victory for ukraine over russian forces. on friday, zelinski made a direct request for the new tanks to the nato defense ministers meeting in germany . poland prime minister mateus mar wiki even said that either warsaw gets berlin's permission to send its leopard tanks to ukraine. or they'll just go ahead and do it calling consent, a quote to secondary importance. nice example of european unity there when it comes to being careful about potential escalation. apparently it's o cater runaround off leash as long as their hearts in the right place. it's like the drivers slams on the brakes, trying to play hero to a pedestrian

u. s. or is that it's so from italy anal stars outside the scene to feeder pollutant the middle of many successful pilots in the cinema world and originally came from the racing world. thank you because that's where they could train and develop their skills fees. curtain, your mental state is a big part of l or consult as a certain stress and pressure to perform when you're racing on a for sale by owner tuition. because i'm spun on that experience. it can be very helpful on a film set us as an am vincent now to resolve. and thanks often you might have to walk f p v. drones are also increasingly used by hobby drones islet. most drone manufacturers offer models that will lend that f p v. feeling to your vacation shots at speeds of up to 140 kilometers per hour. they're not as fast as traditional racing drones, but they still allow for exciting and daring maneuvers. beginners can 1st practice in safe mode and if things start getting too risky, there's an emergency stop button. if you're now day d

u. s. or, or a government funded organizations like the national endowment for democracy and us agency for international development. they have spent millions of dollars funding right wing opposition forces inside the mexico who oppose president lovers of order and impose for instance, his projects like he's building a train network in the south of mexico called brain maia. and we've seen that the u . s. government has funded organizations also opposed to mexico's nationalization of oil and lithium because mexico, it has a lot of natural resources. and in the previous neo liberal president and ripping in year thought he did partially privatize the oil. so when i'm low, came in, he re nationalize the oil, he nationalize the lithium reserves, and that angered the u. s. and angered a lot of companies in the us that want to get access to those cheap raw materials they need for their technology. so from the very beginning, the, the u. s. has been supporting these opposition forces, but the thing is

u. s. market to me or the u. s. freedom or the u. s. democracy, i can let's, let's take, let's take a broader look at this, just a moment if we can, long before the conflict ukraine began. a number of western media outlets would describe ukraine, either as one of the most corrupt countries in the world, or the most corrupt country in the world. if we, if we look at this just for a moment, if 1000000000, so dollars worth of russian assets a seat and then sold, or i should say, given to ukraine, where is that money going to end up? well, it will definitely end up in the hands of zelinski the bite and klan and their bodies because they are controlling ukraine and they are taking everything what they want in the ukraine at the minute. that's my opinion, but i think here are deeper problems. maybe there is some precious metals who are going to be stolen from the us and they will never hand over any precious metals to the ukrainians. i think the, the biggest problem is that they may have already sold these precious metals, and the owners ca

u. s. or military work. i'm trying to separate the military because a country on its own, why does no one ever talk about the u. s. military emissions? because it's integrated with the u. s. economy. i mean, it's fundamentally part of the united states. g d p. i mean, it's not like people are spending an enormous amount of time talking about the u. s . tech sector. i mean, you do break these things down and people talk about how much comes from hard infrastructure as opposed to soft transportation infrastructure again, which includes civil military as part of it. it's both it is, i mean i think what, what people tend to do when they look at climate is a trying to get their arms around something they've been ignoring for a long time. the world understands how bad this problem presently is. they understand that for decades, economic development, including military development, has ignored the long term consequences for the climate. i mean, my god, i was born in 1969. and in 50 years, over 50 percent of all of t

or your i discussed the move by washington with michael maloof, former senior security policy. i listed in the office of the u. s. secretary of defense. well, it's a type of label that, that the united states places on anybody who disagrees with. and if you're not with us or you're against us and, and therefore you go on, our terrorists lists are, are criminalists sanctions are becoming almost meaningless. so i don't think the wagner group has investments in the united states. it has some limited ability when it comes to other companies or countries other than in europe. well, anywhere that might want to supply or, or pro, or provide or, or even allow members of wagner to bank with them. but it's very limited impact in effect. and it's not going to cripple wagner. my any meets the move by the treasury, come shortly after the grip took control of the key ton of solid door. in dawn, both the white house has acknowledged russian advances in the region, but appears to be done playing them even if they are successful in move solar. it's not going to strategically change the dynamics on the battlefield. it's not going

u. s. or a base in germany, voiced by washington's defense secretary to view the party contributor rachel marston on old secretary lloyd austin, basically just used the opportunity to ask america's allies to toss more cash into the pot for the u. s. military industrial complex. oh, i mean ukraine military support spoken like a true board member temporarily. recused for 4 years by the way. and stockholder that yes. now canada actually did that. by the way, canada bought a u. s. made miss hubbard beg system as a gift to ukraine. so they're basically throwing money at the u. s. military industrial complex for ukraine. and now austin announced all the western allies that are also donating their old us patriot missile systems to ukraine gas. that means that the u. s. needs to make more to replace them for their allies. how about that? i had this meeting there. is there been a lot of pressure on berlin, notably from ukraine and from some of its european allies to cough up leopard 2 tanks, which no c

they're more looking towards bigger s u v. 's. or as you mentioned, e v, so this is a part of the reasoning why with those layers now in europe. and yen says spot if i a sweetest company, but also listed on the new york stock exchange, the latest tech 7 to announce job. because this is the story of a post panoramic downsizing. yeah, definitely. and then if you talk about the stock being traded here and at the new york stock exchange in the past 12 months, the stock prices down by about 50 percent. so then you can see that there has been some pressure for spotify in the past couple of months. the management itself will say that it might have been to, and vicious, and in the past, the too much investing, actually operating costs are about double the revenue of spotify. so that obviously is not a great combination. and therefore, we're seeing those jump cards that part of the story is that maybe all those digital companies that boon so much said during the pandemic or not so much in favor any more as people spent their money elsewhere.

u. s. or china, and i think even china has repeatedly says that it does not see the world in these cold war binary manage she in terms of that it's complex, doubles in the details and ok, well, let me begin to details a little bit more. murray. because when andy says that the western media is one x tunnel factor, the looking to drive a wedge between the philippines and china. do you agree with that? no, i don't think so. because in the in 28th, in 2016 robert philip, me for ready warn international or retail tried, you know, it was very clear that the case when decided by the international bread, you know, the south trying to see that china 9 dash line claim has no historical nor legal basis, i think that's the starting point, but which china refuses to recognise and then repeat the said they will not pick up nice this international decision in the meantime. what it means and china during the barrett this year or have arrived a certain verbal agreement. so allow filipinos who fish in spar broc

u. s. did not want to do this. they will be very annoyed with the germans, was basically forcing their hands in order to release leopards. if you look at what the u. s. or providing in both ross says infantry fighting vehicles, high loss mission. you know, it's totally 26000000000 now and stay late to support package from the u. s. match the u. k. assistance package for the entirety of last year. the u. s. a. doing all of the heavy lifting in a european war again, and i think they'll be very annoying to the fact that there's now has to sort of be forced into providing the n was that they think they didn't want to provide. yeah, that is a point that has been made repeatedly and you are making it again tonight as well. mr. edward, are we appreciate your insights tonight. thank you. i hope francis has spoken out against the laws on the books in some 60 countries that criminal lines, homosexuality saying that they are unjust. now that message comes just ahead of the positives visit the south sudan wanted numerous african countries. we are being gay . is a crime sometimes punishable by death. so closely, we are all children of god. okay. and god loves us as

u. s. a criminal complaint. and that means that the authority suspects him. but he hasn't actually been indicted or charged by the offense in the u. s. to be charged. it has to go in front of something called a grand jury, which is a load of people that, that are on a jury where they read, read the evidence that the, the prosecutor has, and then make a decision whether they're about to be charged. they haven't done this since case they've just made all this noise. we don't even know if this guy will be charged yet, or indicted as they'd say that was in the s b f case. we waited for the indictment . he was allowed to pretty much wander around the bahamas. he was even doing press interviews to bloomberg and all these big financial programs at, you know, he was giving interviews, he's basically half his larry run wondering on when there was clear evidence that he committed these, these really highness, financial crimes. and whereas in this case, this guy is basically known to no one who's now been sort of put up, put on this poster, is big russian super criminal mastermind villain. which is which is b

u. s. or reset it so from italy anal stars outside the scene to feeder pollutant the middle of many successful pilots in the cinema world . and originally came from the racing world language because that's where they could train and develop their skills fees, cogan, your mental state to simply parkville. because what a certain stress and pressure to perform when you're racing on a phone by an attrition. give us a spot on that experience. it could be very helpful on a film set us up on him from sit down to visual dining shop newman, i would walk at pv. drones are also increasingly used by hobby drone pilot. most drone manufacturers offer models that will lend that f p v. feeling to your vacation shot at speeds of up to 140 kilometers per hour. they're not as fast as traditional racing drones, but they still allow for exciting and daring maneuvers. beginners can 1st practice in safe mode and if things start getting too risky, there's an emergency stop button. if you're now day dreaming of taking

so you know that there's a chapter in my book or call putting the shoe on the other foot by which i mean to say, how would the u. s. respond if russia or china, it's on something sort of equivalent, forming an alliance with um, with canada and mexico, we saw what happened even with respect to coup cuba off the coast. how about if was right on the border as ukraine or ga or other places are right on rushes border? so i think it's very important to try to the treat your opponent as your moral equal. that's what he's trying to say, but the united states clearly doesn't see as, as, as equals. yeah, i think there's some truth to that among many people in washington. i think another way to look at also is there's the writer and blogger, robert wright, who use the term cognitive empathy. and by that, what he means is sort of your ability to mentally or psychologically transpose yourself and the other, the shoes, the other person. and i would say, you know, i think there are people who you could say they have a very they have a view of russia as intrinsically evil and they hate and they hate. there certainly are people li

u. s. did not want to do this. they'll be very annoyed with the germans. was basically forcing their hand in order to release leopards. if you look at what the u. s. or providing in both ross says infantry fighting vehicles, high loss. i mean, mission, you know, it's totally 26000000000 now and stay later support package from the u. s. match the u. k. assistance package for the entirety of last year. the u. s. a. doing all of the heavy lifting in a european war again, and i think they'll be very annoying to the fact that there's now house to sort of be forced into providing the n was that they think they didn't want to provide. yeah, that is a point that has been made repeatedly and you are making it again tonight as well. mr. edward are, we appreciate your insights tonight. thank you for the delay in the delivery of western takes to ukraine from nato members. as we were just right. hearing it has exposed fractures in the alliance this week on conflicts on tim, sebastian asked julian smith, us ambassador to nato. why this decision took so long? you heard our president talk about the heavy engagement. we've had not only with the german government but

u. s. or any other nato country will only lead to an increase in the deaths of civilians? the rhetoric of u. s. officials is becoming increasingly belligerent. after hearing such remarks from washington, the criminals and kia will feel complete impunity. the risks of the conflict escalating will increase once again, a lot of people regarding comment just now is calling it a potentially wiring escalation. we know about the patriot missile systems and theoretically tanks from america, theoretically, they're all being cold full by zelinski and kiya. what's the latest here? right, well the, so both actual supply of tanks from the u. k. and potential supply of tanks that we could see from other countries in the west really does present a serious possibility for an escalation and the current conflict. according to reports, france is already getting ready to send tanks to key of and like i said, just now the u. k. has said it's sending tanks officially to ukraine and has actually been pressuring germany to do the same. now at the same time this, not everyone in the west has been,

u. s. or other countries that could be doing more there are countries that could be doing more it. the problem is that what's happened until now is that western countries have used up their own stocks that they keep if they ever end up in a war, probably because they thought the war might be over in 6 months or short period of time. now it's very clear that was going to go on well, in 2023. and in order to get the factories to produce more munitions, the governments have to sign contracts with those factors so they can ramp up production. and that's what's been happening over the last 6 weeks or so. so rather than it being a question in particular, countries doing more, i think we could all do more britain, the u. s. france, germany, et cetera. but it is actually quite a, an administrative question of actually sitting down and signing the paper work so the factories can run production. i'm what's happening on the russian side in terms of munition supply. yet they have a similar, probably weapon sourced. yes. but it's a bit different so their problem is that because they've been on

u. s. or any other nato countries will only lead to an increase in the deaths of civilians. the rhetoric of us officials is becoming increasingly belligerent. after hearing such remarks from washington, the criminals and key it will feel complete impunity. the risks of the conflict escalating will increase once again american media, including the new york times have reported that us officials are discussing plans with the claim for attacks on the cities of mary pole and melissa ball, which link the crimea initiative to mainland russia. but as the us and other western powers have been supplying increasingly involves have heavy weaponry to enquire, any murphy, another call for increased arm supplies, q king from german lee, the olaf schultz. in the, at the world economic forum endeavors. he suggested that providing heavy weaponry to ukraine would be the only way to end the conflict. then order for the war 2 and rushes. aggression must fear. that is why we are continuously supplying ukraine with large quantities of arms in close consultation with our apartments. this was live n

u. s responded, or i don't wanna say aggressively, could be defensively. but how, what sort of intense fears of attack that aroused on the part of the united united states recognize it as its legitimate security interest. and i think everybody else, including this obvious, actually understood it. that's why they were a settlement. yeah. yeah. yeah. i think that's very true. so you know that there's a chapter in my book, ari call, putting the shoe on the other foot by which i mean to say, how would the u. s. respond if russia or china, it's on something sort of equivalent. forming an alliance with canada and mexico, we saw what happened, even with respect to cooper, cuba off the coast. how about if was right on the border as ukraine or ga or other places are right on rushes border? so i think it's very important to try to the opponent as your moral equal, and that's what he has trying to say. but the united states clearly doesn't see as, as, as equals. yeah, i think there's some truth to that among many people in washington. i think another way to look at a

u. s. or threatening any nation natal country at all. it's actually been the, the aggressive in my view has been on the other side. but, but yeah, it, it shows you that their view is in that and it's unfortunate to this my country. and i guess maybe secretary, palm pale, graduated west point to higher rate than i did, maybe that too. but a class right? but the it's very disturbing hearing our senior leaders talk in this manner basically sacrificing the lie. and i'm not just soldiers, but ordinary people in other countries that benefit their own. and i would not even say our or our national, but our own elite political agendas. and that's what it is. and it's very, it's very disheartening and very sad to hear that. but, but that probably feel the ukraine, i hate to say that i have a lot of both ukrainian brand have a lot of russian friends that are very close to ukraine as well. and they're torn by this whole situation. but, but the us leadership that's involved in promoting the really, i mean, he secretary said it directly to me. they do

u. s. or even saying that president joe biden should send abrams tanks, which both defense secretary austin and joint chiefs. chair general milly are both reportedly against. but they're saying that binds should do this only as sort of a ruse to suck germany and descending its tanks. directly to ukraine, are you arguing here for the us, sending abrams tanks to ukraine? 100 percent? we don't have to send. very many. all we have to do is send enough to unleash what germany, how's, and what the 10 other countries and nato have. nato has to share the burden. remember, germany's position has always been up till now that unless the u. s. sens, it's abrams tanks to ukraine than it won't be sending any of its leopard tanks directly to ukraine. meanwhile, french president emanuel my call seems to be trying to buy time to avoid being ganged up on like schultz is over the issue, michael is refusing to rule out sending le class tanks, but also saying that he quote, asked the army minister to war chronic a

u. s. has use 60 time period to ship or on wheat of syria. the u. s. sounds being present in serious in 2014, leaving a coalition focused on regime change involving the military's of most nato countries and regional allies. and made accusations of stealing syrian oil in 2021 . the pentagon said that american troops were there to protect syrian oil fields, except on rare occasions when civilians were involved with syrian the american journalist on political commentator. steven, so who may say washington's actions are stripping them off because of the resources that the country needs for it to recover? they are so busy in the city, people from having added to the fuel on earth for a warming to houses in the winter for tourney, on the factories for the rebuilding of syria. and that is particularly what a washington d. c wants to a country like celia, that is a huge amount of money that is there. that could have rebuilt year to 2 or 3 times . and the doctor, we could have got a medication medicine. we could have got there 6 up our hospitals in syria. it co

u. s. or left child doesn't want to go such a step alone. he doesn't want germany to essentially be the only country that has provided combat tanks to ukraine. via partners or from germany itself. so he needs the us to move as well. and he doesn't want to be drawn into the war as germany or as europeans alone without the americans. now this is a, a complex story of course, and our viewers should know that in order for countries like poland that have german made leverage tanks in order for them to export those to ukraine. they need germany's approval. this is true of other countries as well. now poland has already signal that it wants to send it's german, made leverage tanks to ukraine. finland says it may do so as well. nina, has there been any formal request to germany from those countries for export permission for those levered to tanks? no, that hasn't. that is the one thing that we're hearing here in berlin, that if poland files such a request, they are going to get an answer. and on the lena bab oak said in an interview with a french tel

u. s. or participating in the ukraine war, about 100 ukrainian soldiers the heading to the united states to begin training on the patriot missile defense system. russian. i'm bastard, washington says america is trying to inflict as much damage as it can on russia by canada, as more from the white house. they wouldn't be drawn on the time line, how long the training is going to take on when exactly it is going to start. however, it is understood that a groups of the cranium soldiers are already on their way. now. it must be understood as well that a hatred massage battery. 5 requires some 90 soldiers to man. so although the figure of $100.00 is being pushed around, it's likely to be higher than this for the battery to be continually operational. in other words, you wouldn't need to change the from 180000 rather than one team of 90. so this training we now understand is going to be happening. as i said, the duration we don't know when exactly it's going to start. we don't know what it does appea

or the residence i know lift, tripling decrease, caused by another must killing the u. s. a corresponding carolyn that shimaya standing by with the light is carolina. what more can you tell us at this stage? well, this is our developing, sorry, the investigations are ongoing. however, there are 2 major things that have happened in the last hours. and the 1st one is that the los angeles county sheriff has released photos of the suspect. and i'm on the pictures we can see a man wearing glasses and a hat. am. however, the sheriff did not identify the man by name during the latest press briefing he gave, but he said that he should be considered armed and dangerous. at the same time as special weapons and tactic. team has surrounded a white van in a 2nd location. and as we speak, and the sheriff said that it is possible that the gunman could be inside that white van. but that law enforcement did not know for sure the officers are now entering the vehicle. but we don't know yet what they have found in the van. the sheriff also said that they think it was one gunman, but that the
