a freedom with a passenger, a curious isn't a line of violating his freedom of speech off the he's off to remove his face off because of the anti find. and let's go bronze and slogan written on it with 7 pm here in the russian capital. this is our t international thanks for joining us. based on that, we start in london behavior. it difficult to justify and to failure of leadership. that's the damning fine. they have an internal probe into downing street gatherings of the peak at the pandemic, and if heightens calls for british pm parish johnson to resign. but to a chorus of boos, johnson insisted to parliament that he's the one to fix the mess. personally, i want to say, sorry, mister speaker, i get it and i will fix it. meanwhile, you k lawmakers are surprised at johnson sudden interest in the ukraine crisis, noting that it's simply an attempt to deflect public attention from the party gates scandal. while so much to discuss the so let's close live to london correspondence . sorry i was on the east ali sharia to you 1st please. can you tell us more about what the report has found? well, horace johnson there says he's sorry he gets it and he will fix it. but many see that that statement is an attempt to brush all of these downing street party allegations right under the carpet for weeks. the government said we will await the sou gray report hiding almost behind that phrase. of course, we thought this would be a huge moment. it was built the day that the public and politicians would hold barbara johnson to account. but now we finally have this su, gray report is just 12 pages long. it's actually more of a commentary really not even a summary. for many people, the picture is still very much unclear. she was, of course, also talk about 16 alleged parties through grace as the police. and now looking into 12 of them leaving room for just 4 of them to be discussed in this report. the key line so that some behavior is difficult to justify. it's too little for, it was put into public health. there were also failures of leadership. and on page 5 of this report, it read that it's not possible to present a meaningful report. now what super is really trying to say there is that there's much more to discuss only she's unable to discuss them the moment because this report, of course, have to be heavily watered down in life of the metropolitan police, announcing that they are to going to be investigating so the public still want to know because what happened on may the 20 that bring your run. 1 through the event, very allegedly, a 100 people were invited. what happened on the night of boris johnson birthday party of june, the 19th and what happened the night before prince phillips, the funeral were allegedly to parties happened. the public want to know the full picture, the public want to know the full story. now to gray actually says the government needs to address this immediately and doesn't need to wait for a police investigation to do so. for us, johnson, as we had. 6 said he will fix it and that the government can be trusted. but can the government really be trusted? according to the latest call, 9 out of 10 british people, one bars johnson out. they want him to resign. in the house of commons. it's really no different either many members of parliament, including those, even within barnes johnson's own party. they want him out. we know or as johnson does have some backers and some supporters, they will really try and move on. but there are many more m p 's in the house of commons, so want to get to the bottom of it. see this course in full. and today's sub tree or summary. all we're dr. commentary from su gray. really just beg more questions to be honest. indeed, and johnson's response to the findings of that inquiry in the house of commons right now. really, cuz we have critical to whether he survives as the conservative party lead a. thank you. sure. let's go to isa. now, is that something? no coincidence in johnson finding a sudden passion for ukraine. do they? absolutely bar swanson as he just had there from shadow fighting for his political life at home. but on the foreign policy front, it seems that the prime minister is looking to pick a fight with russia over the stand off in the crane. of course, you've just seen the those words there from shandey about the raw curse reception bars. johnson received in the house of commons as that reduction version of su, grade report was released for as far as far as johnson's concerned. it's vladimir putin, the russian president, that the house and the u. k. really needs to be focused on rather than his own alleged lawbreaking behavior not, of course, comes off to the u. k is already committed and sent troops to the ukraine on what they say is a training missions and center funds for weapons to ukraine. we understand the pores, johnson was supposed to be having a phone call with the russian president at some point this afternoon. but due to all of that political pressure on boris at home, we understand that that phone call has been pushed back to later in the evening. as far as moscow is concerned, of course, all of the saber rattling is nothing more than a distraction from the woeful situation. the police, the prime minister, finds himself in at home and a view shed by many on the benches in the house of commons. now, in judging, he rightly osterhouse boris johnson says he's helping with the diplomatic situation in russia and ukraine. he has no credibility, no one trusts him with the best thing he could do to help would be to resign. he will travel to moscow or wherever he's going in eastern europe this week, but every one will know that he's a man with a time bomb sitting under him. now the prime minister says that sir, he is scheduled to head to the ukraine tomorrow for meetings and his foreign secretary, liz trusts, is already a raised the stakes with some quite aggressive words today, saying that the united kingdom would be willing to impose sanctions on russia targeting a businessman and companies, a russian businessman, russian companies as part of what the u. k. government say, are attempts to try to dissuade russia from what they say the intention to invade the ukraine. something that moscow has strenuously denied, but those are in the kremlin and elsewhere will be looking on with no shortage of amusement at what they say's. a very convenient raising of the stakes. while the prime minister is on the so much pressure on how indeed isa, thanks for the update. and thanks to beth allen, and correspondence that shoddy address, dusty aunties rally right now. the un security council is meeting to discuss security issues around the ukraine crisis. and the russian ambassador has taken the floor less listening intention to leave those rated only russian ukrainian border. there was the negotiation process, pressured by yourself to insure for russia legally binding security guarantees they deliberately are creating the impression that most go apparently is specifically a tension. that means that it can be more accessible for the u. s. a. the timetable for the negotiation process. you'll see that such considerations are fundamentally untrue. the situation fact is completely the opposite. our waste and colleagues are trying on the wave of on the top of this wave of his syria to boil our dialogue 30 down to so called the settlement of the situation on the border with ukraine or security demand a much broader the non inc session of ukraine to nato, the non deployment in its territory of foreign troops. all of this is just one part of the agreement that could fundamentally improve the military political situation in europe and for the world as a whole, like world. and this little table of agreement is something that we talked about in the, as donna, it's belinda b o s e summit where apart from the freedom to choose one's eyes or alliances, was also the stipulation that we see these pretty guarantees of what some states should not be carried out to the detriment of the security of other state. since our american colleagues convened to day let them show us any evidence from bogus narratives that russia is intending to attack ukraine. in the statement of my american cody, there was a significant hodgepodge of accusations of aggressive actions by russia, but no specific fact given. incidentally, i'd like to put a question not only to our u. s colleague, but also to those. where did you get the figure of a 100000 troops that are deployed as youth date on the russian ukrainian border? although that is not the case. we have never cited that figure. we've never confirmed that figure. we warn you, we do recall this and we recall they since is late and the secretary of state colin powell in this very room are waved around a vile with an unidentified substances so called evidence of the presence of w. m. d. 's in iraq. they didn't find any weapons, but what happened with that country is well known to one and all who are a few grave ukraine as well is a country. it seems that our colleagues are prepared to sacrifice for their own pernicious interests. otherwise, it's hard to explain why and convening us today. the initiators of this meeting did not even heed the opinion of the president of ukraine, who asked, though west, not to panic room, which is all ready had her harmful impact on the economic situation in the country . otherwise, it's difficult to explain why our colleagues from the u. s. in a number of other countries are actively um, being ukraine full of weapons and ammunition. we've heard of land talk about this with great pride. moreover, the weapons that it would ready use again to civilians in the east of its own country and all this is being. ready done in violation of their mental agreements improved by the un security council as the only basis for a peaceful settle of the internal ukrainian conflict. incidentally, to my american colleagues was she mentioned the fact that a 14000 people have died in the country. i would recommend that she reads the report of the special monitoring mission of the o, a. c. e. was what route and look at what was the side or how many people died on each side out of these 14000, most of these people as civilians in don bass, who died from shelling from the ukrainian armed forces. madam president, league maneuvers of the us regarding the convening of this meeting is particularly hypocritical, because it was the americans who hold the record for having true presence is outside their territory. american troops, advisors and weapons including nuclear weapons of frequently deployed thousands of kilometers from washing room. and i'm not even talking about the fact that the military adventures in the u. s. have killed hundreds of thousands of civilians have countries of places where they were supposed to be bringing p semarino u. s. and consistently including over recent years as used, forced against other states without your authorization of the insecurity cancel, consumer in their arsenal, unilateral sanctions and coercive measures, a threat of implementing it to it seems to be like the ruling of some kind of a supreme court. and they want to impose upon enemy, for example, worse with rumors today in many countries of the you and have been subject to aggression or attacks by the u. s. 191 countries of the security council have seen american troops deployed and there is data available on the internet stating that you are you are 750 u. s. faces wouldn't humor in more than 80 countries of the world. the overall numbers are deployed of roads. ready over u. s. troops. this is 175000 troops deployed abroad, with, with 175000 williams. and if you, more than as 60000 tricks deployed in europe, the volume of the u. s. military budget, i really article was a 700000000 dollars 1000000 dollars. so 70778 incentives. so russia's budget was 12 times lower. so these examples last business pose a specific threat to international peace and security. my clear example of this reference as regards the root cause to settle the crisis regarding ukraine. we wholeheartedly clapping food is that this crisis just has one dimension, its domestic ukrainian crisis in changing the situation improving. it can only be done through kia, implementing the already mentioned mental agreements, it 8 primarily direct dial over to maxim the guns. and there is no other option for our western partners. pushed key to sabotage the minsk agreement with something that you can improve your worst, your hope that they are willingly or wanting to they willingly using the willingly doing for them that might end in the absolute worst way for ukraine. and not because somebody has destroyed it, i will go with her, but because of it, it would have destroyed itself. you are huge. and russia has absolutely nothing to do with this. don't and try to shift the blame on somebody else. and robert, we are going into the need to talk about all of this in detail on the 17th of february, during the long planned annual. you unscrewed council meeting on the implementation of resolution 220. 2. thank you. i thank the representative on the russian federation. i give the floor to the representative of global maxima them. thank you madam president. madam, i'd like to drilling on the under secretary general. we're or is meeting with like a would have been listening in to the un security council meeting speaking. there was the, a russian, you, and representative vaseline a benz e r. hugh, again dismissing any claims about any russian aggression towards ukraine and he plans that russia has to invade ukraine, which russia has denied multiple occasions. he also raised questions for the council, such as, where this figure of 100000 russian troops on the border with ukraine has come from . also calling out the u. s. as hypocrites, fighting the nations many incursions into foreign territories over the years. he also said that nato was pushing ukraine to sabotage the men's agreements will be the security council meeting does come, of course, as the us and britain have flagged new and devastating sanctions against russia. meanwhile, the criminals accused us of falling hysteria over ukraine. that's something the ukrainian leader has also echoed. he's also called out to the west to tone down the rhetoric while ending his that his talk that the un representative for brushes said that the talks will be more in depth on the 17th of february. so will be closely following everything, and that for you, ah, but in the foreign secretary it has said she will set out legislation to impose fresh sanctions on russian business as well as russian property owners in london. the criminal is already pointed out that the embargoes could, again, end up. i think the, you case own companies, transfer your sanctions to something legitimate and something formalized by the un security council. in this case, we're talking about an undisguised attack on business. let's not forget that many russian companies also have larger british companies as strategic partners, strategic co investors, shareholders. and in fact, the u. k. cabinet of ministers threatens, among other things, it's big business. this is a very disturbing statement. in general, the anglo saxons, of course, are putting their efforts into pumping up tension on the european continent or less, cross live, to a former london. my can livingston to discuss this further. now, thank you for joining us on the program. it's good to see you now can and with pre, as with previous sanctions, do you think the u. k could end up being hurt as much if not more than the russian firms is targeting, especially as many are strategic partners with british companies themselves. we'll have that through the, the problem if we get into sanctions with russia. we'll be in a position where it damages many of our businesses, many crafts, tens of thousands of people would lose their jobs here in this country. and the simple fact is, this is all i think, being ramped up by our prime minister barak johnson, to distract attention from the scandal he's involved in that he held all these illegal parties at 10 downing street whilst restless. ruin knocked down the you think it's not just a coincidence that johnson seeking these talks with vladimir putin as they await the official repose on party gate. why it's good that they should have said that this talk and these chaps and so on. but you see, on time the 6 years old, i grew up in a world where we were dominated by the cold war. we were told all the time by politicians, we run, distract from what we said in the soviet union. today is russia. and then also the cold war ended, we, we, all the documents released. i, we haven't been on the actual america was the big aggressor, was trying to dominate the world. and therefore, you know, i'm used to being lied to in politics, all my life. and i don't believe a word that the british government or the american government is saying about the intentions of putin. if you do, the lead of ukraine is telling the west to sort of wind all this down. i don't feel under threats at all from greg said to posit gate and now going off to a foreign invest. if you think the bronze u. k is reputation as a welds money, how big at risk of been damaged here? well, clearly this report just been released today. it exposes the fact that having impose sanctions and restrictions on the hold of the country, you hadn't had a prime minister presiding over more than a dozen parties in his own house, 10 downing street. and then when they started to come out, he lied again and again and again, knowing or now exactly except the fact he wasn't telling the truth. and this is the most dishonest prime minister mind on time when a prime minister's court lying is the end of their career. and the simple fact is, the poll ratings boris thompson is so loud, it is tutorial, he's don't get rid of him. and he takes them into the next general election. they're going to be white town. so how do you expect things to play out for bars johnson? now do you think you'll be a success in using this ukraine deflection? know 2 people in britain don't want to get caught up in a conflict the other side of europe. and we've had a long time getting called in, you know, completely phony was and so on. all the vast majority of people in britain would be opposed to any direct british intervention against russia over this issue of ukraine. and as i said earlier, that the leadership of ukraine is not ramping this out. they telling the west wind it all down, they don't, they don't expect that one to 21 to invade ukraine. forgot to say, i can join it, be buying himself some time by planning these, but it's the ukraine and talks. it's not them if you think however, this is exactly all which is about this to distract attention from the scandals and the lies that he presided over for pretty much the last 2 years. and he's now on the master press and i think more and more of his own back pension piece are getting ready to get rid of him. and if i had to take out a bet, now we want local payton shops. i'd actually be betting that boris might be our prime minister at the end of this year. not ken livingstone for melinda. my pleasure. speaking to you today are you are kind of as prime minister has tweeted that he has cove it's just after reportedly being rushed to a secret secure evacuation spot where more than 10000 truckers and their freedom convoy support has descended on parliament hill against no job no job rules, crowds and vehicles have been blocked in key roads around parliament building and also protested great warnings of extreme called to vent that oppositions of vaccine mandate sounds. other pandemic restrictions. many said they were not against the job, just the government forcing people to take them. canadian activists, chris elton talked to us from the process. as you can see, i'm surrounded by some trucks. right now. i'm standing right in front of parliament . i've been here for a couple days. there been no problem whatsoever. but there is an absolute unyielding determination on the part of the truckers, the not leave until all the mandates about santa are gone because we've been putting up for 2 years and we've had enough. they're not following scion when they're deploying all these different mandate, just the political menu or try to control the truck and simply are going to take, they're not going to tolerate it anymore. so it's on boy, from british columbia and from the maritime, the mall, the other province of all can birds on ottawa, they fill it up to $53.00. it's the biggest protest, i think in canadian history, geographically it's a bit difficult for canadian productive. it's not the big country, but we've seen anything like this before. and i think it just lit a fire in canadians because this was finally an opportunity for all of us to get together. to show that there is a widespread movement. i guess what our government's doing through don't probably to say that this is just the brand minority of canadian with unacceptable views. and nothing could be further from the truth. their ordinary canadian, are simply tired of this death bought a government telling us how we are supposed to live our lives and even telling us our look the thing. also a police say is call thing $600000.00 a day to maintain security in the capital. during the rallies, a protest swept it off. the government extended job mandates for truck drivers. crossing the border with the us. the truck a say that threatens vital supply chains, but the canadian health agency justified the move. so i think, rising coven cases and hospitalizations. let's take a quick look back now and how the protests have unfolded over the past few weeks. it's not about the vaccine itself, it's about demanding and the freedom to choose. that is what these ordinary hardworking canadians are here for. they want to, they want their freedoms from store, ah, the small fringe minority people who are on their way to ottawa, who are holding unacceptable views that they are expressing do not represent the views of canadians who have been there for each other. ah, society itself is overtaken by fear. this envoys is all of the freed up. it's not only a truck driver, it's actually for every single person, you mean buddy down the road, it doesn't matter. it's all about your free choice. me . with the issue causing clear divisions in the country, canada is made national broadcaster with quick to point at his, supposedly to blame for the unrest concerns that russian actors could be continuing to fuel things as this as this protest grows. but perhaps even instigating it from, from the outset, but political commentator and as he contributes lauren chen believes that needs to be more focus on the real problems plaguing canada. right now, i feel like this whole russian scare is, is merely something to try to detract from the protest to make it seem like these are not canadians who are part of this movement. which, when you, i mean, you look at the ground, an ottawa, i don't think russia managed to sneak 10000 protesters across the border. i, it is frankly insulting as well to the canadians. i think this protest is a long time coming. this is not about the vaccine itself. this is about the mandate . the canadian government has tried to implement some of the strictest in the world are right now if you are not vaccinated, cannot travel by plane train or ferry and that includes just even domestically. there is a federal mandate for a federal employees as well as health care workers. there have just been many times that the canadian government has told it's people that they do not respect their freedom of choice. the government is coercing you to do something that you may or may not want to do and to be clear. canada is one of the most vaccinated countries on the planet. the vast majority of canadians who are eligible have received both doses. so this is not a question of canadians denying science or wanting to put each other's hell their wrists, or however opponents might want to spin it. it's a very different story when you tell someone that regardless of their medical status, what, what afflictions they might personally be experiencing, unless they submit, they will not be able to go to a restaurant. you know, they will not be able to travel, they will not be able to visit their loved ones and hospitals, all of which are restrictions that we have seen in canada. it's very dystopian. i think this is about control. this is about trying to get people to submit to the governments, women, and frankly, this is, this is past due for canadians. we are generally not people to protests or be louder, make our voices heard. we are very polite as the stereotype goes. but i think you can only push people so far, and that is exactly what you're seeing on the streets of auto right now on the convoys. now inspiring crowds across the world is his footage of protests in australia and the netherlands with people demanding the coven health. will's al scrapped will keep you posted on the growing wave of global anti restriction rallies. thanks for joining us here on anti international dance. open me for today, but kevin, i will be in touch with i'm actually at, as in, you're watching a special edition of going underground 54 years since the tet offensive. a turning point against us was in the vietnam region that killed 6000000 as american forces fought that war to make the world safer capitalism. in america, the youngest mayor of a major u. s. city was waging his own war against unrestrained corporate power targeting his city of cleveland. his stand against the privatization of the publicly owned mooney light company echoes fights all around the world against neoliberalism. joining me now from cleveland is that mad dennis goosenich, former democratic nominee for the u. s. presidency and author of the division of light and power. dennis, thanks so much for finally being ongoing underground dam. i should just start there by the fact that we're being warned here in london that vladimir putin might turn the light and power off in that your view, your thoughts on the fact that the nato, a briefing, we are on the brink of war in europe and the biden is preparing thousands of troops to fight awards. russia. i can tell you here from american shire, i'm talking you from a neighborhood including ohio and no one around here is thinking or talking about war. people are just trying to live their own lives, get through the pandemic of find a way to survive initial economy. and i think that people are going to pretty typical of most americans. i think our country needs to finally come to a on time with.
