The Palestinian Death tool now stands at around 31,300, most of them women and children.

Simon up for the news review of this bulletin. President Vladimir Putin says the Main Objective of ukraines recent attacks on this country is to interfere with the upcoming president ial election in russia. I have no doubt about it. The main goal is to, if not disrupt the president ial election in russia, then at least somehow interfere with the normal process of expressing the will of citizens. Second. As ive already said, its about informational components, and thirdly, if they have some success to get some kind of chance, some kind of argument, some kind of trump card in a possible future negotiation process. In an interview, putin said the tax by Ukrainian Forces are aimed at diverting attention from their failures on the frontline. He added the Russian Forces have completely taken over the initiative in the war. The Russian ForeignMinistry Spokesperson also said the us. Seeks to discourage russian citizens from taking part in the election, which is due to be held between march 15 and 17. Mariarova says the us also plans to carry out Cyber Attacks on russias remote electronic voting system. Tensions between russia and the us have escalated to unprecedented levels following the war in ukraine. Putin has once again warned that he is ready to Deploy Nuclear weapons if his countrys sovereignty is threatened. Larry johnson is a former cia analyst joining us from brandington in florida, Daniel Patrick welch is a political commentator joining us from boston over in massachusetts. Welcome to you both, liry johnson, let me start with you and ask you uh what the is going on here regarding the offensive by ukraine uh the russian president Vladimir Putin says that uh theyre trying to have an impact or influence the uh elections. What do you think about that . I mean, its its not as if uh ukraine has been winning the war, do you think just. Their elections, they have been able to now of a son find ways to have successful offensive military campaign . Well, theyre not going to have successful military campaign, thats for sure. Were were witnessing the desperate flailings of somebody who is like drowning man uh in a niceber. They have, they have no way to save themselves. So they launched these uh four attacks near belgrad and they were all repulsed and repulsed with heavy losses. Uh, at least seven tanks destroyed, uh, several bradleys, over 250 ukrainian soldiers, so yes, the United States would love to do something to embarrass uh, Vladimir Putin on the eve of the election, to try to betray him as weak and ineffective and being able to defend and protect russia, but the fact of the matter is ukraines actual capability to do such things is extremely limited. All right, taking a look at uh, patrick wells, the other accusation that russian president has uh said, and that is the us plans to carry out Cyber Attacks a russian remote electronic voting system, um, what do you think . I mean, it hasnt happened yet, im not too sure what hes basing his information on, but do you find that to be a possibility . I, i agree with larry, i, i find anything to be a possibility in terms of interfering in foreign elections, this is the government. That uh posted on on the uh a bragging rights on the uh cover of Time Magazine 30 years ago yanks to the rescue at putting a yeltson in office they will do anything they can and in addition to the four border uh incursions i think we have to mention the 60 or so drones overnight that went as far as the outskirts of moscow st. Petersburg this is a uh, this has no military value as larry says, theres no, theres no point in that, this is a nonmilitary, its to inflict terror, its a terrorish or terror. Ism, think i think theres a word for that, and its to inflict terror in the population and hope that it makes some, you know, some um, as far as the Cyber Attacks go, the cia is has been involved in what will be known in history, i think as the biggest cia operation in history in ukraine is doing everything on all levels they can, and i dont, i think the Cyber Attacks are completely. Within the realm of possibility, well the common fact over here is trying to uh influence um and have uh some kind of impact on the russian citizens um based on uh what im reading here Larry Johnson and of course we know that uh the us has had uh that done in other countries so the probabilities are are pretty high im im guessing what do you think uh do you think that this given the fact that we know what the us thinks of russia and the russian president s that this that theres a concerted. Effort there, you know, the world lewis carol described with alis and wonderland, looks absolutely saying compared to the world that the United States has actually created, because on the one hand, the United States had a meltdown in 2016 and 2020 over russian interference in the president ial election, oh my god, it was the worst possible thing, now it didnt happen, it was made up, it was a lie, but the point was to say, oh this. Outside interference, how dare we . Well, look at you guys, press tv, uh, the United States over threw the president mosa day, 1953, 1954, hukobara bens, hey, we were in ukraine stirring up a civil war in the early 1950s that the soviets finally crushed about 1956, so you go back and you look at the history of the United States and interfering in other countries, uh, its just like drunk that. Uh committed to engaging in every possible bar fight that they can, and we have to recognize that uh the the only the only good news is the United States has become less competent at it, but despite the lack of competence doesnt mean there is uh not a not a surfit of malevolence. All right, final question here, another thing that uh was mentioned by uh Vladimir Putin is the fact that Daniel Patrick welsch says that maybe theyre trying to get. Some kind of card to uh have influence over any possible negotiations in the future. Now just the mere fact that he would say that, do you think that means anything that maybe Something Like that is in the works, maybe . I you know, like like i said and like larry has been saying, this is thats always a card the us is trying to play. The problem with negotiations is that youre dealing with this wonderland reality, anyone with any. Sense of history and anyone with any view of whats been going on has to start at minsk minus. These are the people who had a treaty and threw it out the window and now youre starting from where the um the the the military operation took over. Youre this youre gonna create uh talks about odessa, about kiev itself, but garkov, there is enormous um room that is no longer. Left anyones uh negotiating table and i think putins uh attempt to raise it is just kind of another thing to throw out yeah they also want this they want everything and affecting negotiations could be something its also a reason to hint that this is the only place were going by the way guys is negotiations everyone listen all right thank you very much for that uh let me thank Larry Johnson um former c analyst from brandon in florida. Daniel patrick welstab, political commentator from boston mass. Thank you to you both. With that we come to an end for this edition of the news review. Thanks for tuning in.

Henry tenders his resignation as violence plagues his country. He said his government will step aside after the establishment of a Transitional Council stressing that haiti needs peace and stability. When the violence erupted last week by the alliance of gangs, henry was in kenya to sign an agreement to send 100 Kenyan Police officers to the caribbean nation to restore order. He was unable to return to haiti as the security situation deteriorated around the airport in the capital puerto prince. The us says that new team of marines has been sent to haiti to help protect the American Embassy there. Us secretary of state anthony blincan also promised 100 million for a unbacked force to stabilize the country and 30 million in humanitarian assistance. 80 has been plagued by spiraling violence in recent weeks as armed gangs have taken control, calling on henry to go. Netva freeman is a coordinating Committee Member of the black alliance for peace who joined. Welcome to the program uh taking a look at the us involvement here uh were looking at money thats being sent, were looking at uh uh from we understand marines which could have special operations involved there uh by the us to have also been sent there uh what do you smell here . So one of the things that has to be understood is that the issue the crisis in haiti is a crisis of imperialism, this is what we understand in the black aliens your peace, it is these. Very same forces that are going in under the pretext to restore order that are responsible for the for the situation right now, and we should go back at least as far as 2004 with the us deposing the democratically elected uh president um and then also now these people, these unelected officials in haiti um that because theyre all unelected is unelected, theyre he was installed by the United States prior to the the uh what theyre referring to as gangs we refer to them they really should be referred to as paramilitary because theyre really theyre heavily armed theyre former police and military um and so and that they get their guns from the united pretty much their their weapons from the United States but be prior to them calling for the deposing or the the uh stepping down of arri we saw massive demonstrations of the haitian people calling for it and insisting that they you know they wanted democratically elected governmental moisse prior to al was was also as a puppet of of the prior dictator, mean even even though there was an elect an election for him, it was really unfair byly unfair, so haiti has not been able to stabilize itself and realize a government and even a a program, a program for the country is. By the masses of the people right now the United States, the United Nations, all of them have been occup, this is not the beginning of occupation, its been haiti has pretty much been under an occupation throughout this whole time, led by the United States and then also pretty much this the a group called the core group that is really representatives, no hasian people, representatives of the United Nations of the United States of france, of canada, even brazil and and the oas, and theyre all. They run haiti right now under the for the interest of multinational corporations and to the to the disinfranchisement so to speak of the selfdetermination of the haitian people so they theyre responsible uh for whats going on right now and then right now under the guise of trying to restore order what theyre really trying to do is circumvent the the outcry by the masters of the people and now its the the unelected nature the the or the undemocratic nature. The government right now of of haiti has run its course, theres no more justifying it, the people have had enough, and then now the the gangs, these these socalled gangs, we really paramilitary, have stepped up and become bold and they want to replace, but what we really need is to see the forces on the ground, the organizers of the Civil Society who actually have road map and and a program and have been calling for selfdetermination and legitimate elections in haiti, thank you for that, freeman, coordinating Committee Member, black alliance for peace.
