Force makes the ultimate sacrifice for the palestinian cause. Its the theme cellphone file for the gates of these really embassy in washington dc. The cisco 7 in the head must go. This is all to international with the latest world news. Thank you for joining me. Paula minutes has finally approved swedens bid to join nato. Now that comes after nearly 2 years of incense negotiations, as budapest approval was the final, the adults who stuck on joining the block. So whats okay, im hungry had previously base concerns over swedens, a session into the blog. Accuse the nation of how bring curtis separate his groups, which he considers to be the service, will be the best. Who was im good by so comes accusations of its all done was undermining the rule of law. Something he denies, according to swedens 5 minute step. His countrys acceptance into the group has been a Long Time Coming to the new tools weed. It is now leaving 200 years of neutrality and non alignment behind it is a big step. We must take that seriously. What it is also a very natural step. So we take membership and nato means that we now have a large number of democracies to cooperate with for peace and freedom, told them that you need so all debating whether to send troops to ukraine following setbacks on the bustle field. Thats according to the slope. I Prime Minister robot feed comb as he goes out, sending any of his forces to ukraine is if you had said several, nato and european Member States are considering sending troops to ukraine on a bilateral basis. I cannot specify further, i cannot say for what purpose and what they should do there is yeah, the boy, you know, soldier from slovakia will go to ukraine. I will not make political statements or any other statements on this matter. Now. We will discuss a new caliber and scope of support for ukraine in the coming period. I would even dare to say that the convening of this meeting, but also the content of the themes to be discussed, which were the subject of a secret meeting between the Security Council and the government of the Slovak Republic confirms that things are not going nearly as well as expected in ukraine. D meanwhile, francis president hosted a conference on solidarity with ukraine in paris, high ranking officials from various European Countries attended the meeting about speaking of the events and background stress that theres no consensus among kias pon has just sent in soldiers to ukraine. Faith the book is as well. Everything was discussed this evening in a very open and direct manner. There is no consensus to day to officially openly and with endorsements and troops on the ground. But in terms of dynamics, nothing should be ruled out. We will do everything necessary to ensure that russia can not win this war. The football could always, we spoke with coda writes of the international action, sense, etc, flounders. She says the only reason to expand nato is to prepare for mobile. It shows that the us plan for the expansion of nato and the threats on russia continue one step after the other. Its no regard to what is happening in ukraine, which is an absolute howling defeats in terms of us policy. But nevertheless, they go right on ahead. So we shouldnt be too surprised that theyre trying to strong on every country. Consequences will surely be more, more, more efforts and more reading up from that is a real danger. I mean, why expand nato . Nato is a us commanded controlled equipped military alliance. So the only reason to expand it and the only reason to exert this level of political pressure is preparation for more. I think its pastoring, i dont think any of the countries of the European Union are willing to go forward with this as theyve seen whats happened so far. And theyve seen that in ukraine, theyre completely unable. This is a co, rough right. When really fascist regime, the of folks who are lining their pockets, they think they, the money disappears, the equipment disappears, the weapons disappear and they certainly arent being used. And it has led to thousands and thousands of gas of ukrainians. And its not going to get better sending more forces this on a fall from the city of of gifts which versatile gallery of this month, the village of less pulse cannot in advance through public has been captured according to the russian, m. O. D. I mean, the account of region in Eastern Ukraine versus m o. D released this voltage of the key of Drone Control positions being targeted inc pianist and say across systems could also be seen providing protection from ukrainian strikes. But some of his countries, the losses below them is the landscape claim that ukraine and only last. Busy just over 31000. So just since the ball begun 2 years ago, i figured that contradicts what the chief us live on the land. So the long time ago, threats, its not 31000 soldiers have died in this war. And yet its a great loss for us. It is estimated that more than 20000 civilians and more than 100000 Ukrainian Military officers have been killed so far. This all follows estimates released last month by russias defense ministry, which indicates that ukraines law says in 2023 exceeded 200000 killed or wounded, a significant increase since the previous year. And i figured the landscape dismissed as lies well as mall 8 to key if is sold a mid debates in Washington Co pocket is a senior sentence. Aid is currently on the Investigation Report suggest the issue is his frequent trips to ukraine and the provision a sniper gets a keeps forces with around 13000. 00 according to new york times, which viewed the confidential findings to get transfer could make kind of pocket and registered for an agent or less cost live. Now see International Attorney kline preston, whos joining us from nashville, tennessee, co. Thank you very much for joining us. Im sure youve, youve kept abreast of this story, but i just wanted to ask you, well, so a potential security biscuit of these actions by the us and its a comp pocket, could pose the report suggestively. It could be within the own, within the being targeted or exploited by a phone intelligent service. Well, it appears that as the commissioner has stated these under investigation, he may have violated fare of the 4 digit registration. And i and his frequent trips up by says 2022. He made 7 trips, at least to ukraine, and during that period of time. And he is maybe unwittingly exposed the information that he had as a uh, an aide, or one of the highest Ranking Research assistance with the Health Safety commission uh, in the center. And so you know, through his uh, cellphone and then other means is traveling um and providing the help and then a, the scopes that he provided to some people in ukraine. Um uh for uh, for snipers. Um, you know, it is activities have as it appears, been in support of ukraine, but hes exposed to the United States government to some perhaps information leaks by virtue of his travels. And the irony is that hes actions that he claimed was disappoint. Ukraine may have insights on the mind, us supports for ukraine. We have the, the comments from joe wilson, the representative of the republican as of South Carolina who says that you could jeopardize jeopardize a future ukrainian aid by putting this Helsinki Commission on the subscript to me. At the moment it appears that could be the case as well. The representative wilson who is head of that committee, removed Mister Parker from being involved on that committee for the time b was being investigated. So at a minimum, the optics are not good for that committee. And, and the activities by kyle parker and 7 trips. I found it hard to believe that 7 trips in the last year and a half or so to ukraine, were conducted without a 40 year without permission from some people with the Health Safety commission. I mean, it would be difficult for him to get off and leave his work for that, but that many times and that raises some issues of, you know, what, in fact he really was doing over there. Well, a pots of it seemed to be very self promotion. I certainly didnt miss an opportunity to, to post a selfie on social media. Where in the military camouflage mich administrations punches come across in a ukraine drone unit punch among other things as well as an image that he was pulsing the liberation of look honest. And so it certainly seemed that it didnt do it himself any home on social media as well. And i saw some, some posts where he was taking pictures with the a job tagging insignia which, you know, is a derivative of nazi insignia based off battalion. I think is a Nazi Organization and um, a lot of there from a lot of the actions of days off site and rationally targeted by the senate early on. Ready funds not to go to that um that organization because it was in fact believed to be a Nazi Organization. And so i didnt hear you have a Senate Staffer whos probably holding up the flag with the insignia liaison. Mm hm. So it did. The optics are very poor indeed. And finally klein. I just wanted to speak a little bit more widely about the was as youre aware that the aid package has gold in the us. Do you think that it, that it will likely get approved those 60000000000. 00 for your grade . I am hopeful, but it will not be approved because there are a lot of representatives who are holding a strand line and opposition to it, such as my congressman from here, tennessee, representative of andy ogles, of these starts, weve guessed it, and its for variety of reasons. That one of the main reasons that the, some of the representatives are opposed to that the new bill was because there is no account, theres no count of bill. Mm hm. And without them being able to get the information, wheres this money go . Whereas it hasnt gone, wheres the money thats been appropriate in the past though . And there is no transparency, transparency. And so thats a, thats a significant problem. Um, unfortunately the binding ministration started trying to tether, passing this support for the ukraine with defending our southern border providing more resources there. Which is unfortunate. But ive, ive still sounds like it is going to pass not in this present for a while. It was certainly have to wait and see climb preston international. Its any thanks very much for your take on that us and its 8 and his trips to ukraine. Thank you. Thank you. Moving on to other news now, the Agricultural Industry and the ink tales. Farmers across europe are taking to the streets, pressuring european officials to solve the problem. A few cleaning products that are flooded the market. The message in belgium in spain is that cheap ukrainian produced is putting many farmers livelihoods that risk, that misstates is, are also demanding that the you give up on his funds. The changes find a policy. We had some, some of those that the rather the monthly work from dawn to dusk, very long hours. And there is no income because our products have no value. Everything is much more expensive. Now we spend a lot, the price of diesel oil and fighters down at 3 products, a super high, similar to a lot of things because we do most you phase one from the farm is marketing dent. And weve gotten a major victory in the sale of our citys public land. The big invest is like in germany, france, and everywhere theyre a big investor, speculating on farm lands and public lands end up in the hands. We come from spain today to united with old you are p and farm is in the united message. Although the claims are reach at the national level, they are obviously different. But the background and the union are the same. There is too much bureaucracy in the European Union and in european law towards member countries. When, meanwhile, Police Farmers have blocked the border crossings with ukraine and spelled a 160 tons of ukrainian grain. This trained strikes where they stood. This is a full search case of destruction of ukrainian goods, abolish, railway stations, gifts deputy Prime Minister called the incidents theyre responsible or bolans agriculture minister also called the dumping of grain unproductive. Well, the European Commission has its keith to consider the position of european farms and stuff like supporting the brain to 3rd party countries. My options, most of them do a bit of the best way, would be to support through creating transit and transport or see ports and some products to countries where ukraine has always traditionally sent its products. What we need for this is a positive approach from ukraine and some cooperation. Earlier we spoke with a specialist in geo politics, who says that people are waiting for definitive action from the government. And the Administrative Burden on farmers is enormous and small form owners fund a huge amount of time dealing with administrative issues. While Large Companies over is to have the stuff to make their lives easier. At the same time, it is safe to say that this movement will not stop unless they are a concrete actions rather than promises. It must be realized that the demands of small farms will be different from demands of big companies. So its necessary to create basis of trust in order to stop this. Strike and trust is aaron through actions that people are waiting for x and the moving on. Now the destruction of the node, steam pipelines back in 2022 will no longer be investigated by denmark. Police say its a clear case to sabotage, but theyre shutting down the probe of a lack of evidence. And that comes hots on the hills of sweden, dropping its own investigation, saying that it likes jurisdiction versus the president ial spokesperson, criticize both those decisions. This whole mission to actually let me just cook up because the situation is close to. Im served. On the one hand, there is recognition that they was deliberate, sabotaged, and on the other hand, there is no further progress. There are various information leaks, a whole set of facts that became known off the investigation. Obviously they started to reach out to that closest allies in the course of this investigation for the initial stages of this investigation, we repeatedly approached the dates, requesting information about what happened. We what refused. We could not take part in the private. The situation in this case is so obvious that one can express absolute amazement for your visit. Well, its pretty incredible. Weve got copenhagen saying that they cant take this for to a criminal case because this isnt sufficient evidence. And yet on the flip side, saying that theres enough evidence to say that this was sabotaged. They knew that this was a deliberate act to destroy these pipelines. These multi 1000000000. 00 pipelines that were taking a cheap russian gas directory from those gas fields to germany. And this now is the 2nd west and country that is pulled out of its investigation, saying its not going to take things for that sweeping, did exactly the same just 3 weeks ago. The investigation has let this or just to conclude, that there was deliberate sabotage of the gas pipelines. However, the assessment is that there is not sufficient grounds to pursue a criminal case in denmark. As we know russia on the west have been pointing the finger at each other since this happened all the way back in 2022. And whats really interesting is that nobody in the west has been able to say why russia, for real reason, russia would blow up a pipe that he had spent years building had spent billions of dollars on providing president preaching, however, has been pretty clear. He was speaking to us during this talk a call soon just a few weeks ago and he said its the west who blow up north stream. You for sure. I was busy that day. I need it and you have to have uh, i did upload it or what . Right. Uh, excuse me though. You personally may have an alibi, but the c. I a has no such alibi. Did you have evidence that nato, or did it let you know . I wont get into details, but people always say in such cases, look for someone who is interested. But in this case, we should not only look for someone who is interested, but also for someone who has capabilities. When the blame game 1st kicked off, it was a very famous john list who pointed the finger. It wasnt this. Yeah, this why . This is a Pulitzer Prize winning journalist seymour hersh, who had an incredible tale to tell. He basically said that he had spoken to sources with direct knowledge of a military operation, a u. S. Military operation, that so us the only bas, deep diving down to the pipes punting see for explosives. He said that this was all done while a need to oppression was on going to be cup of death and nobody would be suspicious as to why these us operatives with that. And he said the reason behind this was because the us feed that the was addicted to cheat russian gas. And in fact, he said that this operation was planned prior to the ukraine rule. Thats how scad america was looking for that cheap flushing gas bottles decision to sabotage the pipeline scheme. After more than 9 months of highly secret back and forth the bait inside Washingtons NationalSecurity Community about how to best achieve that goal. To see more hers is not the only person saying as it sounds like spying no food, but all those weve had reports in the Washington Post as well. All suggesting that the west played a very large hand in this. If it wasnt him directly, there was a, a thing you quite look. I mean, it wasnt that long ago. It was, it was a couple of years. Whats a good job . I basically said we have a ways were gonna store that pipeline in victoria newton, the my down midwife. She says something very similar as well. And yet still somehow no ones taking responsibility. Yeah, thats why to me is pretty incredible way. Well, an 18 months on from that now, and nobody has been able to say, well, this is what happened. An interesting lee. This is a huge logical dissolves. So when the pipelines were up below, not mass is of me saying came into the this is greenhouse gases, this is what western experts say is causing climate change. So youd think if nothing else would prompt them to investigate that, the fact that this was such an ecological dis off, that wouldve been the reason im and of course weve got the fact that germany aust, still investigating weve had a statement from germany on monday saying that, but im not going to hopefully press, give them that we for existing to of the cases not being proceed any further on that specific. The interesting because germany is the country that really has been who are soft as a result of this. Germany, you know, the Industrial Base of europe. Its a engine of money. Essentially. Its not Industrial Based, needed a cheap energy to be able to continue pumping out the goods. That still thing that Russian Energy coming into germany has an impact not just on to and they were just seeing higher inflation. And now apparently is going into a light to recession, but it had an impact and runs occasions across western europe. But despite all of that, we know that one pipeline is still for ratio. And present. Booting says hes a very for giving months and he says that russia remains ready to use this also confuses me. But todays german leadership is guided by the interest of the collective west rather than its national interests. Otherwise, it is difficult to explain the logic of their action or inaction. After all, it is not only about north stream one which was blowing up a north stream to was damaged, but one pipe is safe and sound and gas can be supplied to europe through it. But germany does not open it. We already please. In the view of the impala minutes for the alternative, for germany going out back, says he showed the german investigation wont reach any conclusions. I didnt say gave me these investigations when the, where they had alibi function. And i tell you now with absolute certainty that the job investigation will not need to be met. Theres an obvious reason they dont want to get to result. So yes is the, there are many possible a political risks when its cold of emissions, internal external compulsions, which prevents all parties concerned from getting to the to so the match is the connecting interest on the west. I would say germany today is be said by a whole host of external and internal functions and this the pace john policy and economic policy, either migration policy and through the american capital. Now where a member of the us air force has died up to assessing himself a place outside the gates of the is really embassy. And the video, the big guns streaming just seconds before the tragedy. The mindset he wants have no part to most happening in gaza. The same and active duty member of the United States air force that i will no longer be complicit in genocide about to engage in an extreme active protest compared to what people have been experiencing. And how science had the hands of their colonizers, extreme at all. This is what our ruling class has decided. But wanting disturbing images ahead. The man who set himself on fire has been identified. You may pause as 25 year old are in bus know, his last words was said to be free, palestine, and this is in the 1st such a protest in december demonstrates itself and relates to the outside is really conflicts and us state of georgia. We spoke with a great zone editor in chief, next 3 months old, and he says that these extreme acts of protest i have done very little to get the attention of politicians on capitol hill. This extreme protest by aaron bush meal and active Duty Air ForceService Member is not having the same impact that for example, the quaker and norman morrison, who burned himself alive in front of the pentagon, had in protest of the vietnam war, Robert Mcnamara then the defense secretary actually witnessed morriss self immolation and it shook him to his core and no one in official washington that i can think of is shaken up by bush knows protest. The slaughter continues to weapons deliveries continue. But it has galvanized the protest movement here in washington. There is a vigil in one hour at the israeli embassy. There is a Global Awareness now of the anger, not only within american civil society, but within the american military. At the us, the direct roll the u. S. Is playing in this genocide and gaza and for those who are tempted to dismiss the bush now as simply some crazy guy protesting some other countries war that hes witnessed through social media. They should consider the documents exposed by the intercept earlier this month, which show that air force Service Members have actually been called up and deployed to israel to help is real in targeting and surveillance of the civilian population in gaza. These orders were marked mandatory, so the u. S. Air force is directly involved in implicated along with every other waiting of the Us Government in this genocide in gaza. Finally, the 2nd congress of the international russell filed movements in the form of multiple r t keeps off in moscow. On monday, the 300. 00 representatives from onto fits countries all taking pots in both events and the, my colleague mike, a quote you have discussed versus Roland International stage. Would you have any, an academic and political unlist said, how many toronto . I think there was this clearly, on the decline and russia from on a number of other countries have been moving in the opposite direction, rushes fairly on the rise. Weve seen that after the waves of sanctions against russia, the country continues to grow. It continues to make advances on the battlefield in ukraine. So the future as things progress seem to favor the global south and one of the Key Countries in the global south, it is the 1st flash of the factual resources of russia unrivalled. And it has a large population. So, and also russia is making a lot of statements and the noises that are coming out of moscow appeal to many across the world, many were dissatisfied with the status. Well, you talked about the world changing area. This paradigm shift is, is the, what is the west of the o . Well, this pilot, im shift us. I think they are the last people to find out there are some among the leads. And the wes who are increasing these speaking about decline and even some politicians, but they havent changed their behavior. They even those who acknowledge the decline of the wes among the inmates that are close to power or in power. Then theyre not pushing to change policy. The west is not managing its decline well at all. And if they were smart, they would re negotiate their position with other countries. They would try to a while, acknowledging the changes they would try to fit into this changing world order in a way which benefits the west. How would you describe the route, the position of you run in the middle east, especially way we would consider the ongoing tensions in the middle east. The role that the ron even needs to perform right now. Recall that some countries in the west are calling for outright war with you, ron, but to speak to us about the position if you run in the, in the middle of things here. I think you, ron has been constantly on the rights for the last couple of decades in particular, ever since 911. I think the americans have been making major mistakes in our region, and the iranians have been able to capitalize on those mistakes and to punish the americans and push them back. And also by craving alliances across the region. Iran now has its friends that are very powerful across that across the region that i think by american standards today
