But after the International Reading agency downgrades washingtons credits for the good morning for moscow, this is our T International with the latest and world news today. Im for your elizabeth. Welcome to the program. New year does not want to become another libya and fall under the pressure of outside interference. Thats the message from the 2 governments delegation after a visit to neighboring burkina faso on wednesday. During our exchanges. We spoke precisely about this situation because we would not like niger to become a new libya and coordination with our brothers in burkina faso. We have decided to undertake a number of activities to secure our populations and secure our 2 countries. Earlier on wednesday, the same new gerry and delegation was in molly to meet officials from the country. The delegation attended a meeting with military officials who sees control of the land locked west african country nearly 3 years ago. Meanwhile, in this year, the military ruler lashed out at the International Community and warned against foreign meddling. Said these hostile and ready go as it should, it brings no added value. Neither in the resolution of the new situation for another seizure of power by the National Council for the save garden of the country. Nor of our hes though to come and fight against terrorism. On with regards to echo was and the west African Economic and monetary union. It is with amazement that they g rings have learned of the illegal, unjust and humane sanctions imposed on them. But they are above all, unprecedented as a collect friction forensic student helped me to bring health fed faces in by them back to power money and looking up fossil of flexing their military muskets, freight thing inclusion of wall. If thing spider allowed self control about this group that there was, what are we to do the transitional governments of working a fast. So and molly won, that in the military intervention against new share would be tantamount a declaration of war against working fast. So and molly denounced the persistence of this region organizations and imposing sanctions that aggravated the suffering of the people and jeopardize the spirit of man african is and when it cool was high, totally decided to easily lose your full drastic function. Were freezing over the country, financial accounts, and the closure of land and at borders, looking at money and getting in all countries led by leaders that came to power up to cool on heading to refer to as what google and by my corporal mise, to retaliate against anyone who attacks me share i me, chief of nigeria. Thats his troops waiting for the mission. A very practical situation with a key question. We leave it to face after the deadline. To is that 1st practice vocational trace . It isnt in these yet. I strongly recommended by the cab theyll say, basically visual assuming for as we international or credit is on for and have colored waves. And we will have to look at molly burkina. Faso in guinea are among the supporters of new years new leadership. All of them have now been suspended from eagle was the union has additionally introduced sanctions against these year, including both travel and severe economic restrictions. Nigeria, a member of the block, has also cut off electricity supplies to the country. While the world bank has to spend the disbursements for all operations in the region, with the exception of private partnerships to despite for him pressure on molly burkina, faso, and new year, the new governments are seen support from locals. With many saying the presence of western forces in africa has made the security situation on the continent, even worse. Well, is it 5 good news . I think we shouldnt listen to west mess because they dont live in the same reality that we do here and work in a saw. So in new year, in molly the terrace comes in killing us for years. The west has resources to spear, but they are not helping us in the way level. Then contact me into what context have the western displays the june to now, they are the ones who impose the vision of democracy on us. Democracies now the geology to dominate africa. Now, all of those who are not going to go through democracy to come to power, they will be considered june to us as long as it doesnt suit the west. They can to impose democracy on us in order to be able to dominate us. For several years, we have noticed that the presence of the west has only made the situation effort to worse. By the way, the African People have been suffering for a long time from certain crisis, especially when it comes to security, the europeans, because as they call it, we do have our own way of understanding would to our intellectuals, were also capable of thinking for ourselves. Omar, hama, a journalist from new year, says the population has little faith in eco, was since the union failed its mission. And molly ad works, you know, fox though last city, i will, uh, decker was condemned the military coup in niger from the beginning, and ask members together in nigeria to find ways to mediate the christ in niger. Today we can expect the same scenario as an mally or bertina during niger through a lot of people who do not believe in echo us. Who believe that echo was, has failed. Its Mediation Mission in molly field in broken to fast so and they do not see how it go ask and successfully find a solution to the crisis. The niger, our future isnt certain. Thats 1st sure. The recent military to a news year was led by an officer who was reportedly trained in the u. S. According to our recent media investigation, us trained officers have been behind 2 attempts in numerous african countries, including burkina, faso and molly. Currently, both countries along with need year seems to be cooperating and proclaiming a largely anti western stance journal horn historian and author says us involvement and preparing to plotters in africa contradicts its image as a flagship of democracy. Keep in mind that in terms of this space, the military crew speed they in any kind of cream are booking of fossil pharma, lead or even in the share. A significant percentage of the co plotters were actually trained in the United States of america. And that is rather curious because we are told repeatedly that the United States of america is some sort of beacon of democracy. Well then, if thats the case, how do you explain the fact that the military men did their training or overflowing government . That supposedly you are supporting in chad, for example. You also head in a regular change of government. But since the new regime was willing to play ball with france and the artist states, there has been no talk of a north atlantic nation military intervention. In fact, the regime and inter main upset is in the good crisis of the imperial styles. That kind of approximately is also noticed by those stands the French Embassy in new share. Just a few days ago the u. K. Envoy to ukraine says russia is using child abductions as a part of an electric lance to week. And ukraine that says london, impose sanctions against the arts at childrens resort and crimea play be moscow. Use as a center, as the destination for the children evacuated from the war zone, are to visited the center to speak to the children firsthand. Yes, i am from didnt ask. This is the 1st time ive come here. I really like it. Here we go on a boat to the sea, jump from the deck. I would like my friends to come here to see. I wanted to come to this camp, and now i would like to go to our tech again. I found a lot of new friends here. We dense a lot which theater performances go on, trips and have fun from the guns that miss c a here is fun and positive. I really liked the activities here. The nature is beautiful and people are kind and friendly, which, but id say im from, it was helpful. I wasnt right to sort text things to my academic achievements. I really like my vacation. I learned to play football pretty well. We have a multinational team. Many children from other countries, we have a very friendly atmosphere. A british prosecutor of the International Criminal court, cited camps, allegations of for c port taishan of ukrainian children to issue an arrest warrant for Vladimir Putin in march. Despite the i. C. Cs, lack of jurisdiction on the matter. Moscow says it has evacuated, more than 700000 children to safety, saying ukraine has failed to protect the miners. Are 2 correspondents, Steve Sweeney spoke to the don, yet regions ombudsman daria moros of all who also has been sanctioned by the u. K. Because of the same allegations, the investigation or the war Crimes Investigation into the killing of children by ukrainian forces. Can you tell us what prompted by investigation . What was the reason for the investigation of war crimes, unfortunately, is very sad. It dates back to 2014, when the people at the dawn passed, took to the streets to peacefully protest against the crew that happened. And keith, instead of listening to the peoples appeals to the government, those in power at the time. Who are the legal representatives will be authorities, announced a so called Anti Terrorist operation. The Ukranian Army was sent to killed the civilian population of the entire don bass. Lets recall the events and the consequences of the year strikes that took place in 2014, when a very large number of children were killed. In my opinion, the investigation of these crimes is not moving forward at all. Weve repeatedly appealed to human rights organizations. International organizations were the 800 letters were sent to unicef, covering incidents of the violation of childrens rights on the territory of the republic. But from 2014. Until today, we have not seen any reaction from the International Community to the war crimes that have been taking place in the dawn past when it comes to children. No proceedings were carried out, which is probably led to what we have today, the war dragging on. Unfortunately, children continue to die at the moment before the start of the special military operation. 91 children died since its onset, another 137 children have died at the moment. This figure is about 228794 children, received injuries of varying severity, more than 30 children, remain disabled for life. And we dont see any reaction from the International Community. Theres no reaction from the European Court of human rights. What would be documented uh, so far as part of the investigations correct. It just gives this whole chapter shania of almost all cases of Human Rights Violations on the territory of the next republic. Almost all the more crimes that occurred over these 9 years had been fully documented and have been handed to Law Enforcement were Legal Proceedings under certain articles have already been carried out. If it concerns any showing resulting in the depths of people of children, criminal cases have been initiated with specific people involved. These also involve cases that happened during the liberated territories, like bono vasa and murray, opal. Im talking about the so called human shields. The Russian Federation repeatedly, more than a dozen times ive tried to arrange humanitarian corridors so that civilians could leave the worst zone. Yep. Thats what you claim. Never agreed to this. It simply keep the hind Common People a so called human shield these cases to have all been completely documented and its already been transferred to the appropriate legal status of an investigation. Like this will undoubtedly have been dealing with a lot of informational gathering and lots of information and what kind of obstacles or difficulties all you facing in coming out the investigation cold list. Most of this month at about 12 minutes of the 1st difficulty is that the done nets, peoples republic is constantly under air strikes from cluster munitions, those cobra to give these criminal orders are not on our territory. So identifying them is half the trouble, but they still need to be found physically when the war is over. Also, those officials who are now both the military command and the military civilian command of keep are not physically here. This of course, creates certain procedural difficulties along with everything else. Its about the International Communities reaction to all this. As an authorized representative, i send certain requests for each violation of human rights that we encounter on our territory. I said notifications that for instance, yesterday there was showing certain objects were destroyed as a result of showing from certain caliber from certain positions that people suffered injuries, varying severity or people died. This is also noted, and again, i think until there is a proper International Legal assessment and economic or legal sanctions are imposed on the leadership of ukraine. This will all continue this is a very important piece of work that youll carry out. What kind of support do you have from any other organizations . Im thinking human rights organizations and goes a governmental bodies, this kind of thing. Now the one you see, and theres a little that will be in that 2nd demo at the moment. All international organizations, we have appealed to have taken our letters into account. They answered that all the information provided in our letters will receive due attention. But this is all weve received today from these international organizations. Not only the un i, c, r, c, and unicef. If the International Community wanted to play its role there, i think that today our children wouldnt be dying, wouldnt be getting loaded up. Wouldnt have to learn about the horrors of war that they here today. Accordingly, we can conclude that the International Community does not care at all about what is happening in the dumbass. Israels ministry of education has banned a Grassroots Organization from arranging School Activities, alleging the Group Questions is really Defense Forces actions creating a negative image of its soldiers. Comparing the pain felt over the full and idea of soldiers and victims of terror attacks with the grief over those armed in defense. If idea of activities while protecting the state of israel is unacceptable and is not in line with the values promoted by the Education Ministry. This does serious harm to the memory of the following idea of soldiers and victims of terrorism to the parents. Circle family for him has been accused of violating new Ministry Regulations issued by the Education Minister and is prohibited from organizing activities. That shame idea of troops. The p c f f isnt, is really palestinian for him of families affected by the conflict. Its stated. Goal is to ensure peace through reconciliation. The decision drew condemnation from 4 members as well as a labor party conducts that member who said, Civil Society organizations are being caught in the crossfire. Anyone who doesnt conform to the values of the fashion government to be tried as an enemy and a traitor. The concepts of peace and tolerance have the right to been allstate, beyond the borders of legitimacy for the government, these government even trying to a team and the amount in a dictatorship, the Education Minister decides what is forbidden for students to know the decision by your case to bend b, c, f, as activities at schools is another act in the suppression of democracy and 0 acceptance of all the voices. We spoke with the Spokes Person from the p. C 5, who says that such was violate citizens, basic freedoms. It was obviously some kind of political game for the minister because weve been speaking schools for Something Like 20 years, and its never been a danger to anybody. The whole point is to go into a cos room together with tennessee b, j b and the purchasing was lost, an immediate Family Member in the conflict. And the reason they go into the cost is to show stories and thoughts from nation stories of people whos gone from anger and violence and, and wanting revenge to non violence to looking for recalls. Busy if already just since this morning, 18 principles have signed and they to against this decision must mean something. Its just, its to me that this has happened and useful 20 years. Wed be changed. One has to be hundreds and really sweet, sweet, which is a basic human right. And we was democracy. Meanwhile, at least 35 palestinians have been injured during a raid by is really soldiers in the city of novelist in palestine. The rate occurred on tuesday night on the eve of a plan visit by jewish worshippers to a monument called joseph to Palestinian Civilians have also become victims of retaliation. Attacks for is really soldiers reportedly kidnapped by hum us one such case was the reported abduction of an idea of soldier back in 2014, with his really forces in killing dozens of local civilians. The options were conducted under the controversial so called hannibal directive officially rescinded in 2016, but later replaced with a new loss. The concept of which remains classified. Arteries middle east, corresponded marie if a notion of reports. Serene is the mother of 6, but you will only find 5 children living in her home after her 55 day old son size and her on the ceiling is really shelling of the tone of the phone. You guys. 9 years ago, the people who were with me that day and they told me, your son, how much to out of your hands. She was he and hes whole. Brianna came out of the back of hes had, they said when she got torn apart and you got injured and became like this. Exactly 9 years ago today, series memory is not. She had faxed and walking still hurts. She spends months in a coma and says she doesnt feel that shes actually 100 percent feel. The shelling was the results of the controversial hannibal directive. These really army older activated after the abduction of one of the soldiers in 2014, during these really on the protective ad defense of the games, thomas miltons and gaza. The idea of how that building disappeared, the army on least in massive show of tank, fire artillery in a power, in an attempt to pursue perpetrators and save the soldiers. Locals coal, that date black friday is the strongest country in the middle east. They have many ways of getting their soldiers back legally and mailed through tactics. How was the civilians at fault . I called this hopelessness unless we can take on the fighters instead of going kill civilians. This is a wrong thing. International law doesnt allow the killing of civilians at all. Reports say 200 structures were destroyed, hasnt result of almost 1500 major strikes. The idea for the me to its killed dozens of nashville, toners and civilians to the fire continued for 3 days. Even after soldier golding was determined that and as to overfeed extended the mission to return the body was never achieved. The fall crossing in southern gauze ill have to bolster with egypt is where according to the idea of the soldier, was captured by him ost militants as his base area. Some 4 kilometers away from the frontier, but suffered from a massive fire by these really forces. Thats followed. The objection global critics have accused the idea of excessive use of force at home to the protocol was highly criticized. Israel states controllers said the directive failed through respect to key principles of international law. Distinction between military and civilian targets and the use of proportional force against a given threat. Ramallah based on hack by this thing in human rights and g o. Documented 225. 00 tests and 3 days of a heavy ball odor selling, including around 100. 00 civilians. This, it shows that they have not taken care of with the life of the pearsons with people, but just their soldier or their office out or no even with disobedience is real listed on hawk as a terrorist organization, which only gave the team some extra motivation to continue working to humanize 3, and thats not a picnic, and thats not the jump that we have to do. Believe about what we are doing. And this is the case here at the heart of the International Community. Does not agree with these really decisions on hawk still has many west and donors with their help. The groups of me to the 2014 hannibal or the case to the International Criminal court. Questioning proportionality of the 4th use. The quote says is still working on it the just as the late cold justice tonight, we still waiting for the not the court to proceed to uh, it shows what that is for, i guess the lady criminals professor, also cashier to wrote the idea of ethics code he says the 2 main values unique for these really army ah, sanctity of human life and are, was trained to use of weapons. But that means there was a huge gap between the theory and well implementation, including in the case of a hannibal owed, or regarding its own soldiers after the combined was put into effect. Not much longer. Any deputation has appeared, appeared in that was the express being a really short saying a hey bro, its dog say, ill admit to me. Okay, ill have to better a dead soldier than an inductive soldier. So letter a letter in mid day that then wed pay less for bring them back. Horrible idea. I cannot tell you who invented it. But the person who invented it was absolutely wrong and morally professionally, ethically, a similar misinterpretation of leaving a highly ethical command. How good have led to this proportion of to use a force proportion . Many people facility has nothing to do with hardly, but so for pushing thursday work breaks, the considerations were wrong. Perhaps accessing force was used. Okay, thats a possibility that can be raised. The idea of held its own probe into what happened, but the results were for the armies internal use only and not to hold anybody accountable. Shortly off to the directive was revoked, but many questions related to its use in 2014 and guys are still remains with no answers. Reef notion of the reporting from chasm. Israel and palestine and administration. The us treasury secretary janet yellen try to say face and point the finger at fits accusing the company of processing or relevant data thats after the International Reading agency, cut washingtons credit score. Citing concerns over the country, step burton and state of finances as well as an erosion of governance and fixed views, that has been a steady deterioration in standards. So governance over the last 20 years, including on fisco and debt mattress. Notwithstanding the june bipartisan agreement to suspend the debt clement until january 2025, the repeated debt limit political scandals and last minute resolutions have enrolled and confidence in fiscal management, which is decision is puzzling and why does he he cannot experience. We see in the United States, i strongly disagree with fits his decision, and i believe it is entirely unwarranted. Its florida assessment is based on outdated data and fails to reflect improvements across a range of indicators, including those related to governance that weve seen over the past 2 and a half years. This is the 2nd major Rating Agency after standard impor to strip america of its triple a rating, then use has spoofed investors across the world as global stocks began to slide washington las credit points, despite the us governments last minute deal on raising the debt ceiling. That says the countrys debt has hit a record high, reaching over 31. 00 trillion dollars are to contributor chris and says the us is overwhelmed with that and is dragging washingtons allies in the west down the road or the economic decline. And by seeing that, i think youll see the Big American Companies that have investments across europe, across asia, even, you know, that sounds like it all straightened out for some reason has decided to ally itself economically to the us, a little bit of chinese involved. But in the most of the us, i think, yeah, we can see, you know, i, i decline in, in right. Seems but one of those countries that depends more or less solely on us come us lets, lets just put this agency into the specs. If its uh, was found in 9 in the 1900s in the United States. It wasnt invented yesterday. Its incorporated in the u. K. In london. And in the us side there was already only 2 offices globally that made that headquarters if you like. And what that basically saying is that if you print lights of money over the course of the last couple of decades, if you miss my, your economies that extend what youve just depleted your entire military possession and sending them to fight the conflict. Its thousands of miles away from you that has nothing to do with you. This is the result of your economy. The economy is in taxes, the, the lot cost of play. A policy might being done by the byte in the ministration that comes from the hold infrastructure bill, which is meant to be the big thing the item was going to get done. We dont have any more about that. That, you know, he was going to improve all of that infrastructure which the dilapidated with in the us we have about is that he gives a printing more money and then giving that money to ukraine. And thats not very good if youre looking at investing money in an economy, because you cant see the output of those funds. You can see of a ton of investments in the United States economy right now. You know, this is just another nav nail in the coffin to the dollar. I think, i mean we have the roster african form here in the st. Petes is that last week we sold a number of african Countries Global south leaders talking about teaching the dollar and embracing their own self in currencies. Maybe even the bricks, nations creating their own brakes. Cool, you know, brakes covered and see some of thats kind of the you arrive if that happens. I mean, this is just another incentive for a central bank to anyone in the well to look at alternative currencies to use that level is a trade thats a right for now. But coming up a closer look at the economic and mental costs of social media on the cost of everything. Thanks for joining in the far the today we are more connected than ever through social media. Something many people would say that they couldnt live without a simple text is just not enough anymore to communicate. We have to pleaded pinot. Snap back into this tick tock that and thats not even half of it before generation. That is the most interconnected and plugged in people feel more alone and isolated than ever. Im christie, and today were going to be breaking down the ins and outs of the cost of social media and its effects on society
