And sometimes it gains these manic well. The fly from us go this monday, march the 11th. Welcome to then use our on our Teacher National an attempt to sell, so its africa to other powers. Thats how the countrys president has blasted. The Main Opposition Party for asking that the us over c elections inmate. Heres what else around the pose that have to say in his dumbing response to that request. We say to come and monitor. But now for a nonparty non state drive that model state entity to do Something Like that, its basically say we have more gauging our, our democracy to either i dont really, it doesnt matter to me who those are. We do with regional organizations, continental organizations and global organizations and we invites them. So. Busy busy we think its probably do this in g s and there seems to be another agenda that im the pin so that lar, teased all that for you can gauge on just from johannesburg. Now. Good morning to you at president s run the pose a not holding back there. Is assessment, take us through this on folding political buffalo in south africa as well. Those are the words of prisoners that im opposed to responding, particularly to the Main Opposition Party. The democratic alliance. After i had sent a letter requesting support from the United States, as well as the several foreign nationals rather nations to show a free and state election consulting time on the 29th of may prism that im a post that claims that sent democratic alliances waste as puts that african southern chief on the silver platter. And that to the letter that they sent to the u. S. Is basically saying that we are sending on democracy and this all comes as the country becomes increasingly nerve is that to election day could be mobbed by violence between condo is. These are the uniform Political Party economy. We dont fight to as well as in seat call. Team members, whats the da is also insinuating investment says that they have a chance of winning, but not if the United States does not intervene. It also points out that so that because peaceful transition to democracy, 1994 was supported by countries um throughout the boat of the said its progressive vision and worked hard to defeat a racial nationalism and political oppression. But then again, thats what is being argued covering fee is the fact that the d a avoided the wood attractive and its lisa, i mean, stayed phrased that period as race. So i mentioned that as a men political oppression that on the phone has been so thats because in a frenzy im considering that to the d a, the party did not even exist, giving the countries 1st a democratic nation in 1994 and as of africa and its citizens coming to say that to this community indicates that to the d h go into government. So that to go will be subjected to the bullying of the United States. But she has moved fund that lead to with that full appeal to our government to recognize the high stakes with south africa in the lead up to and of to month of the 2024 national and provincial elections. It is in this context that we know formula request all putting us in democracy to engage with consequence in the run up to the election a spell it says similar to that one was also saying to 2 other Foreign Ministers around the world, particularly in europe. Um, asking for help in ensuring that there is absolutely no foreign interference is of africas upcoming election. In fact, lisa as well, was also seen by the democratic alliance. But so thats because the reject all of these moves by the d a saying that the d h has seen how it would be us into feelings in other countries. Im solving t. It has the delta didnt after the destruction and k us, but still choose us to go ahead and write this to be in touch the you is some even saying that it is im fee and im cold for a some of this and, and that is totally unquote, full for the d. A to wanting to, to intervene, americans to oversee our elections, of which we never intervene in their own elections. So i dont think that is a very is a very good idea. 40 synthetic with move. So 100 percent of feel like its on sale on so that we can citizens because i dont understand the relation between the, the Political Parties and our Political Parties. I believe that as a sort of theres not enough. We can put a citizen, im suppose, to have my c as well with regards to the polity, political industry and all that. They dont reside. Yeah. So difficult to to be a good lucy with regards to that. So that for to the citizens, the thing that they dont need to use observers, because what makes them rochs to observe as that african election. So with all the scandals that they have under their belt. So even the amc has said that the das need to amounts to nothing further stating that they dont even know what the basis of these tensions of, of the d a r. But also um they say that this is not surprising to them. What do you expect from a party that wants to have International Relation powers . What do you expect from a particular leader . Im john ski and hayes and talks about the war in guys. By saying that one means genocide is one means of freedom. Those are the places and sent him is cutting to attend by the Reading Party b and c. Live from dallas berg this monday. Ortiz miller. You can get thank you. The 10s of millions of russians, including many locals in the countries in buffalo, new regions are preparing to vote for their next president. This coming weekend here on our to international will be bringing you special coverage of the nations landmark event. The 4 candidates are in the running for the countries tough job incumbents. Vladimir putin is taking another 6 year term. Hes off against a political veteran, and some 1st time contenders from the countries main opposition parties. Ortiz, in the email chart, takes us through their agendas and lots of stake. A rush as president watson is facing a National Election that will test the public support for his leadership would be a great conflict in particular focus. That issue is of such importance that one bloody reports and presented the reasons for the military operation. In a recent interview with american journalists, tucker carlson, the video racked up over 200000000 views. Up until now that has been the approval and screaming about inflicting a strategic defeat on russia on the battlefield. Now they are apparently coming to realize that it is difficult to achieve if possible, in my opinion, it isnt possible by definition. It is never going to happen to anybody. So for sale, a few weeks countries accounted for only 16 percent in 1992. But now their share is greater than that of the g 7. It has nothing to do with the events in ukraine. This is due to the trends of Global Development and world economies that i mentioned just now. And this is inevitable in the system or the suitcase and happens. It is like the rise of the sun. You cannot prevent sunny from rising. You have to adapt to it and how does the United States a job with the help of force sanctions, pressure bombings and use of armed forces . When you put a gun, the guns, i assume it is very difficult to seals United States because the United States controls all the worlds and media and many, many european media. Russia has remained defiant against western pressure and mid the conflict. And its threatened its size with china, india, and other nations of the developing global south. We appreciated the fact that our trade is set to an old time high. Uh, we have crossed 50000000. 00 done over the last year. We expect to exceed dot this year. And what is important is that this trade is small, balanced into sustainable and it provides for fermat in texas, that is the spite western powers seeking to isolate russia as much as possible after the start of the military operation. Those attempts by the west have ended in failure. Current russian president s pro, as, as a leader through this challenging period will be put up to public scrutiny in the president ial election. As the face is off against top candidates from the normally popular communist party, the nationalist l, v, p r, and the upstart new people movement. Lee and its slootsky, serves as both duma statesmen and the leader of the liberal Democratic Party of russia, which is one of the largest parties in russia. And hes programs supposed to be pay special attention to the importance of the role of many wages ended developments of the country pointed out that russia will prize if its regions drive. He promises to ensure fair living conditions. And it cool guarantees for all citizens rushing strong with its regions and they must become stronger. And people should be proud of the fact that they live in a unique country, which today is the central attraction for those countries and peoples war against a unipolar world order. Where decisions will be made only in washington on the basis of some rules, rather than norms and laws. Now to nicholas heidi, son of who is representing the communist party in the 2004 president ial elections. He came in 2nd behind vladimir puts in his party. His goal is to build a restaurant based on the ideas of renewed socialism or socialism of the 21st century. But what did he exactly suggest in his campaign . In our program, we clearly stated we have played with capitalism, and thats enough. Program answers all the questions. Many people received free apartments from the state, then why was it possible then . And why is it impossible . Now . The largest love dev on cops the youngest and final candidate on the list from the sole named new people party which presents itself as a liberal one. Last year he ran for mayor of moscow where he finished in 4th place as part of his current election campaign. The bunker promises to focus for dominantly on the future. I have a Clear Program of action which will guide the country into the future and provide the groundwork for development for decades. I offer russia this alternative piece and negotiation, but on our terms, not a role back, more funds to cities and regions, freedom of speech and opinion, openness and pragmatism, instead of looking for new enemies. But still, it appears that according to pre election, pauls vladimir puts in remains firmly in control of the russian political arena. Races survey said that 75 percent of electronically active brushes intended to vote for vladimir puts in another popular pulling agency said it would be rather difficult to compete against the long time incumbent with only 7 percent of respondents disapproving president for the exec seventies. While as much as a to percent approve, his popularity extends beyond russia to, according to a survey on the social network x as compared with other global leaders, blood reporting is the top pick, the russian president garner, 35. 6 percent of the over 800000 boats has form across the world with this president ial election coming up at the height of international tensions. It will definitely be a vital one for russian voters. A warranty has indeed got you covered for all the Key Developments running the upcoming votes across the world. Biggest nation, we have got Something Special planned as well for the election days to by the way, its hopping from march 15th to 7. Think the 1st time across a number of days. So do stay with us to find out more soon. You can also follow the build up on our website. The, the west is not free from one sided interest, and thats the view of one of the indian easy is main cultural figures. Then see, im suiting the former leader of that mohammed, the islamic and g o sat down with us for an exclusive, extended interview about how the world is rapidly changing and why russia and indonesia have more reasons to work together. Yeah, many people may not know that knew how medea has a strong relationship with russia. Yeah. Can you explain how this relationship was 1st established and what kind of cooperation or relationship was built at the time . About one. Yeah. So but another yeah. Who the yes, actually, the relationship between the home and the and the Russian Federation was established a long time before i became chairman of the, the central literature. And when i received the monday, the general chairman of the comedy central, the shipment of 2005, and we were determined to develop International Relations incorporation with many countries, both with islamic countries and the modern countries in the west, in asia and in other places there are quite a number of memorandums of understanding they do have been signed with government, including the governments of the u. K. And of course, really, and also with international the institutions such as the community of santa g, d. U, which is the organizational flitted catholic people based in roland. But right now we have one with russia as well. And the last person that has failed the relationship with the Russian Ambassador in chicago. I mean, when i see didnt president put into the initiative to form a group for Strategic Vision between the Russian Federation of the muslim world. So i think that he was contacted by the embassy to be a member of the organization. That is, and i was one of only 2 people from asia. Yeah. I was represented in Southeast Asia and there was one other person, a professor from bangladesh, which is the academy of science, the do or the phillip. So from then on the, in the 1007 i went to moscow and other places to attend the meeting. So the, so, you know, i zation room for City Division between the Russian Federation and then log in and, well, its host, im in it. And since then, once a year, even twice a year that i attend meetings in moscow in the hutch collazo, also one of the girls of the church. Yeah. And morning because on the capital of the republic of cut us down, that way itll break that thats, thats what kind of topics are discussed piece meetings, someone by the room. Yeah. In general, Strategic Issues connecting russia with these logic well and have led to continued cooperation of various fields in the economic field in particular of course, but also in the field of science and culture. In a broad sense, this group is a known governmental organizations, but seek is for manys, let me country so expected to lobby their respective governments of these nomic world as a whole, to relate to incorporate that the russian. And i think the results are tangible here that the government that the Russian Federation is one of the few countries that became and observe the oh, i see the zation of islamic cooperation and the other side. And then for the, for roger has an ambassador of saudi arabia, specifically in jenna, do that one time, we had an assembly in general. So in the evening who invited by the Russian Embassy for it. Oh, i see the zation of islamic cooperation of the embassy for saudi arabia. So there are 2 russian and buses. This one in the kingdom of saudi arabia. Yes, i want to enjoy the photos and as ation that was let me cooperation because the headquarters is in jen as motor custody. I did get the calls from your perspective after participating in so many discussions and meetings. What role can indonesia take to continue strengthening the relationship between the 2 countries when youre buying ex kylie, and there are so many things that can be done, especially since indonesia and the full most populous country in the world, much larger than in russia. As a china, india and the United States comes in the media. Secondly, in an easy country with the largest Muslim Population in the world, around 80 percent, or 220000000 muslims. And this makes in the news position and very important in atlantic well, and also for russia. So from that angle rush and indonesia, especially during the soviet and she had a Good Relationship and it was known, i think you called him moscow access. In addition to that, you gotta be gain access at the time. You see that a lot of the indonesian companies, but it rule the country now in the post. So each year or the post cold wont be there. Relationships should be improved in the speed of corporation between nations for the purpose of a mutually beneficial solution to yeah, it is. Yeah, in the an easier. So rush as a world super following the, you know, this, let me and, and now in the, you know, the Russian Federation that its failed, both males, republicans and also a scientific and technological power that russians also reaching Natural Resources, including oil, the domains in the area was once a member of the old bag as an Oil Producing or exporting country who said now and when it is in the water rushing, it is upon a false alteration. And i happened to teach Global Political islam at the jakarta state Atlantic University media, russia independent as an important seed as an observer in organize a Service Alignment countries. Russia has really opened up seed score with trips time one since been destroyed. In other words, is the openness, the 2nd based least the sympathetic relationship with face logic. Well, i held above the discussion with the an m, made a statement, the quoted by the indonesian media and signed it in the easiest relationship of the Russian Federation. Could be a balancing force, a balance in the polarized, well, a multi polar wells, and especially against bowers, like the United States. The european union, or the west in general, as a country did oppose the supremacy of world civilization so that the west is not for free from the one sided enters. So it is a huge gemini, and sometimes these, these might make well, not only against media, develops and cultivates symmetrical ration with these, against the islamic world and the relationship between the west indies, lumnick world as a whole, gives rise to symmetrical adulteration in appearance. And in the mid 3, actually, the relationship is between the seems to be there and the cd to alone between disappear west and the inferior muslim world. Some of them will because they are powerful, victorious in the field of science and technology. All social and economic fields. And this affects relationship in other fields in the, in the military field on the cultural field that im, that is what boom connor called the neo colonial is we and imperialism. But is, this is not a positive thing for the world. And then it will cause global to model that useful. Now both so we draw, show you, particularly is presented itself in mobs of ation is a country that wants to connect with all the cyber specialties lima countries. Ive seen that only with the middle east and these with north africa was due to the your in, in, in an easier portfolio. In my opinion. As an observer, this Great Potential has not been fully explored. That i mean how the relationship between seen the new year and the Russian Federation is old, vice versa, and bring maximum benefits to both bodies so that he can do it without the husband come up. So why do you think it has not been explored . So actually they have been active on intensive diplomatic efforts. I know what the Indian Embassy moscow and the Russian Federation embassy in jakarta i doing. But there is still a kind of insecurity in this post cold war in a world. Because i think the west america, in particular, will not allow and is lemay country like indonesia or the country in the middle east. They have relations with no west west. But the de facto is like, well, has good relations with the Russian Federation. Any melodic but got nothing. Yeah, this is interesting sir, because it turns out that the role of indonesia in the role of the meetings that you conducted is about more than just religious cultural factors, but also concerns the economy. If you look at it from your point of view, why does russia feel that indonesia is an important partner in such a cooperation . And finally, the easiest way to think location is not between 2 continents and 2 oceans. As we often done in elementary school, the drama ended developing region, which is called east asia. And now whether we like its own knowledge or that is the phenomenon of the rice of east asia. Or lets say that in the pacific where the shift of the epicenter awfully kind of a girl from the atlantic to the pacific model, or as i said, the Human Resources and all the Natural Resources are extraordinary. But it also has agents, especially since the majority of the population is mazda, nevada. So the consequence approaches position as an observer in the oh, i see is that it must have relations not only with that of countries in the middle east, in north africa, but also with all the mazda countries, such as indonesia and malaysian. And thirdly, this Good Relationship will be in fact uh, 2nd, global civilization. So there is a political global and they can amik shift to this region. And this is the world of the future. I think it will be full of cooperation based on weight and with solutions, but one has been wrong so far is that the flooding feel superior. What dense sort of cooling i. So the countries using the term service and oil, a visa, capitalistic terms now, but the real shows, which also has an important position as it is surrounded by many islamic countries in central asia in the bank. So with the union, with the majority of the populations, mazda and reach and resort, see full vis 6. Dont want that developed and then fall into another country. Doesnt have to be on the basis of religion that indonesia to exhibit the actual country to become a future growth area. My dream is to see the emergence of last asia and the position of the whole, the world 7 i zation supremacy is somewhat season enrolling. Now its out the nose and an easy. It could become the epicenter of growth. But then senior isaiah by a potential is there ser, setting burly, or you also mentioned that there are those who feel superior. Theyre the capitalist narratives that you brought up earlier. Actually if we look at indonesia is current position. Just how influential is it . Especially for establishing greater cooperation with russia, which actually has much potential effect. But there seem to be some obstacles right along. Im yeah, yeah. Lets get yes. We have to know each the development piece through. There wasnt a lot of colonial. Nancy. So when west the Nation School nice to many countries, its been actually in the eastern light and well set it equal in indonesia for the long time and the sea. And then the postcolonial is post independence era. Turns out that the orientation and tendency of july zation itself did not and is only formally political to form an established nation states on the basis of independence. The duration of this settlement in the parking of relations between nations. The domination has gone. And even now thats a command for the time of day the world has divided into 2 blocks from east to west, the centre west in the soviet union. Then in america and other countries where avoid is gonna, then they had to choose to be cited with the eastern log onto the west. One. Then in the news, you had a good initiative, pullmans and normal blog not managed. But in reality, no, a Light Movement could not free itself from the influence on the existing blocks in the post cold war need to. There was no longer a bipolar. Well, its of east and west that the west side to justify itself as the sole superpower. There is a bush for the mount vista. He says, yes, but its still gold champion of democracy america. This is what happened. But even in these land, well, im in the out of world. Itd be out of spring some time ago. Happened because of the push for west and the more participation in the economic field, global capitalism, australia, and like a syndrome im given in small towns and villages seem to me of capitalism goes hand in hand with globalization, myrtle globalization design is shrinking well to, to live this may have been sold by design us and initiate is to lead to single will power who said implements a capitalistic economy and liberal democracy. So countries in the west of surprise now when the new trends and then systems on the day, globalization was a country, it is impossible to leave it alone. So this is the reasoning why the relationship between russia and even nation in addition to other countries is, is important. And once again, they regrouped, we tried belongs instead of the russian, most of them. Well, so digit vision group needs to be food advance, set up. We find Strategic Vision the but it must continue. This is dina can actually strategic program. So we needs to teach a glance. Yes. Whats the on the basis of a win win solution funding based on disability of shedding and achieving mutual benefits. But ill look at that, but it gets out of time to get them all these, sir, if we shift a little bit to look at the Political Movement in russia and in indonesia now mount up in the russia will soon hold as president ial election. But the media have indonesia has recently wrapped up in selections as well. So what, from your perspective, what are the hawks for the next leadership . Both in indonesia and in russia to continue to support bi lateral cooperation to please help us with new google . Yes, im on the line. Yes. And leadership that can you know, the good of the citizens of indonesia on the basis of religion and this, of the language and culture that leads us all the data to so cool that issue that can awaken the attention of the nation is the media sort of it, they may even these nation is not small in the pension, having with students all night zation for office center. And they found Natural Resources extra ordinary. This requires that leadership. Certainly we need to leave here. Ok, and can, thats even easier with the outside world with other countries. But with us here to the principal on a phone call. No ones called 3 seconds, mainly independent, politically independent, economically independent cultural power. So i, we dont want to be co nicely. And so we dont want to be dated c a level, we dont want it to be for the benefit of the speed and the inferior. Now in this regard, i think there is an open relationship with the needs, with the russian and that we are talking about and also from the Russian Society that i think the setting is always saying the various fluid attitude. And it is still sad that it yeah, yeah. And that means there is the existence of republics, including on the basis of religion like the man i see. Bye. Yep. Bye bye. Thank you very much for your time, sir. Then i, thanks for your great insights during todays conversation. I see lambert, thank you very much. I the, [000 00 00;00] the time option retention.
