If she can ping dominant people say what was have delegations involved .

The not only this is the 1st trip, so you can say stops is new term as russians president. But also its symbolizes the, the 75th anniversary of the 2 countries having to provide a good relation spot to what we can see out of the, the short, 2 day visit. Of course, the 2nd day is due on going. But to know what we can see is that the 2 countries are now not only comprehensive, strategic pop, and as but as the statement. The joint statement shows yesterday by the 2 countries is that both sides is taking each other as priority. Paul, this is something very significant in the calls of our 2 countries relations and particularly in the context of the current world of as where there are k offs and even stability and threats to the Country Security is happening everywhere. So this, the district of russian president to china is very, very important. And the importance cannot be stressed whether ill be continuing our coverage of let him or put in the visit to china with a packed schedule for the 2nd and final day of the president s trip. To stay with r t for all of that of the and well, russia focuses on building purchase in asia. The us appears to be a risk in relations with one of the regions key players, india, r t spoke to the mirror top, loves the Russian Foreign ministries Asian Department director who lambasted washington for treating other states as less our nations. The most nice uh we have any previously expressed ill view the us does not understand the indian people and the reach history and traditions. These are all post colonial vestiges and bad habits that have to be fought against russia has long been in favor of a global majority. We must fight against any attempts by the west and leaving the development of large agents states and emerging as leaders in the global di mentioned. The west had better get busy assessing its so electoral system we have seen how would this happen in the us . And soon enough, well see another episode we chose to be spectacular in terms of numerous violations of generally accepted democratic knowns. So it is not for the democracy in elections to the largest democracy in the world. When the indian people make the silver and choice, hell give the indian leadership more confidence. The indian lady she has always emphasized that it is interested in developing a multi faceted, mutually beneficial relations with the russian federation. So we have only positive expectations. One area. 6 of contention between washington and new delhi is trade washington threatens the country with sanctions. I for india in iran inc, the Management Agreement over the south eastern remaining part of trouble. Har, its only a rainy and port was direct access to the indian ocean. Being part of the north south, the transport cord are connecting a vast area from india to russia, lowering the cost of transporting goods for all participants in the region is a mirror, a couple of again says the us brokerage promise to india not to interfere with the project or id say you were writing your gotcha, we have says this negatively. And it is impossible to assess the brazen, unapologetic behavior in any other way. I think so im just recently the american says show the in the leadership that they would not impulse any sanction. So restrictions on this project which benefits a whole group of countries not only in the in the run, but also ive gotta stand. It was one of the alternative routes to help the im going economy and regional trade. A ball from that, there is another dimension to this project to do this in the around projects, its very homeless. They even started coming to work with the region to create a north selves International Task record. Here, rochester reaction to washingtons already. Unfortunately, traditional behavior is quite obvious. The suspected gunman shot slovak from Prime Minister rubber feed. So opposed his policies, including the banding of arms supplies to ukraine, as according to the countries interior minister should ice columbia and both what of each, if i can confirm the reasons why this is classified as politically motivated, pre mediated murder. Were not pointing fingers on anybody. I presented to you with the facts. And this was a summary of a stipends made by they say it was the hes unhappy with the situation and he disagrees with the government. It doesnt agree with stuff in assistance to ukraine. To sort of those a weeks before the assassination attempts to suck suspected gun. Many your ice until i was spotted out a protest in western vakio. The rally in support of the crime saw a small group of people carrying you flags in condemning the countries ruling party. Now, some background on the suspect 71 year old, your eisen tula, is a fierce critic, the silver Prime Ministers, ukraine policies, members of faith. So the government confirms that he took part in numerous pro western rallies and demanded that the Prime Minister renew slovak arm supplies to cab before shooting the top of fissile. The countrys defense minister says the shooting was not coincidental. This is what i get the, all the biggest tragedy of the past i was, is that weve discovered that the disagreement with a different political opinion, disagreement, or conflict of opinions have turned into pre meditated mode at what has to happen for a person who originally presented himself presented his opinions as passive, has to become an extremist, take a gun and chemistry want to kill someone else. I believe that the emotions of the last months was so i is the back you. This was no coincidence. Problem, pizza is not so new politician. Hes been in politics since 1992. Thats 32 years on if he didnt have the same opinion with selected media and then the criticism float. And if you, despite public criticism still won the elections, then it breaks the question, how can we criticize him if he still wants to fight on somebody floating . Its going to kick slovak president Peter Pellegrini associates of remains in the serious condition, despite undergoing a Successful Operation after the violence of time. The footage from the same shows and pen again the chaos spread through the crowd, waiting to meet the countrys leader. The silence shot Prime Minister feats of 5 times as he left the government building. His guards rushed to the Prime Minister and to a car before he was listed to the hospital from a safe location. The suspect was immediately taken into custody ortiz. Yes, and that can brings us more details from the scene of the attack. Smoking Security Forces have removed a boat from this tree that was launched as a result of an attack and assassination attempt on the side walk in 5 minutes. A rule that fits so immediately behind it is the Cultural Center in which the Prime Minister walked out of moments before the attack took place. The silence was a 71 year old male speaking to the locals. They suggest the sentiment that the silence had towards the Prime Minister or the government is not necessarily something that is shared throughout the country. These statements was in one form or another aligned with a number of conflicting ideologies. Back in 2016, many suggested his values more traditional that they were aligned with slovakian interests. Some would even describe them as pro russian, whereas in 2022 has inner circle suggests. His views changed, supported pro ukrainian, pro western and pro liberal values a drastic shift that resulted in the assassination attempt of to walk in 5 minutes. Or what will that fits up, of course, 1st of all, its a tragedy when you hear a politician is being attacked. And of course, uh, we know that some of our care is a country where theres a big polarization. Theres parts of the country which is strongly opposed to 5 minutes their feet. So and then theres a large part which is a fan of feed. So. So of course, its a dangerous situation and its also, its always, uh, a said through here that people to divide them to express their opinion. And theres just, yeah, thats misfortune. Me. The gentleman was a little bit sick and a had. But this is not the way to handle things, in my opinion. There are a number of policies that we can list policies that the assailant was opposed for the most part. But the one thing that does remain constant is the governments position to ukraine, as well as ukraines potential bid to join nato. This is something the government opposes. These policies have been in place for a while. Many would suggest theres a Division Within society. But then again, officials throughout the country have states that the Prime Minister has been elected into power time and time again, his policies havent necessarily changed. So the big question here is, where is this pressure coming from . And the pressure for the most part is of course, coming from brussels. Its coming from the United States. The walkie is a member of the European Union. Its a member of the nato alliance. And this, among many other things, is one of the fundamental reasons as to why the sealants could have potentially carried hell be attacked. One final thing to mention is this the lucky and government, and its intention to establish a Foreign Policy that is sovereign and independent from that of the European Union and nato. This is a fundamental reasoning behind the governments position, the opposition as well as the motivation behind the servants motives. But more importantly comes at a time when europe itself is questioning its own existence, its identity as well as its Foreign Policy and about europe is looking to establish that identity. It makes sense that slovakia, so itd be a hungry many countries within the european continent are essentially trying to establish that very same thing. Yes. And again are 200 of a slovak you already discussed to the assassination attempt with a member of the german. But in this time, he told us that you is doing everything to shut down, growing the sense and that cut down opposition a c. So lots and lots and some main politics. Also you was against the laws for peace in the spring. And um, you said to you is going to want to do live veterans and he was against the sentence and this, and this is contrary to the policy also that you can union. And maybe this was the reason why he was shot sullens receipt best of speech. And hate speech against the opposition as on e, as in john, a titian, and see if the stocks and i can hear in the speeches. And this is a very, very sad situation if i could chose that. Um, yeah, the main parties was in germany, but i think all over europe, they dont want to get out of the power. And this is the reason they want to this to 0 position and they want to cut down. So position parties really fission. And youre and you do something against dresser and politics that you get this pressure. And yeah, its, this is so this situation of a use seems to be drifting further from us later. This idealistic vision of the so called european garden was authoritarian and liberalism, leading to violence, against those who dare to voice mail turn of opinion. And heres our to contributor ritual marsden with the details. I remember when the European Unions chief diplomat used burrell showed students at the european diplomatic academy, the finer points of the subtle art of diplomacy by comparing the you to apply a garden in the developing world to a wild jungle. Yes. Beautiful. You said garden we have built a golden Advocacy Works is the best combination of, of political freedom, economic prosperity, and social cohesion, the rest of the world, most of the rest of the goal, its a jungle and the jungle could invade the goddess is this still actually the case because its increasingly looking like jungle eel, is that okay, just go on a safari right there. It is on e garden. Attempted assassinations of playful leaders like what just happened in slovakia this week. The Prime Minister robert feed. So are more of a lawless jungle wide, and this will vacuum interior minister has said that the 71 year old man who allegedly shot seats. So got so worked up about the government policies. Just some finishing or Media Coverage that he felt compelled to grab his gun and go out. Hunting. Pizza criticize the european establishment is intolerance when it comes to diversity of thought and specifically populist or nationalist. Anti global is by that same establishment, uses values like solidarity as authoritarian tools in an attempt to shoehorn everyone into dos of compliance with their agenda. Well, beautifying just that the impact of the establishment is cracked down on percent is also off. P, as in germany, where interior Ministry Officials are now i knew measures to tap for violence against politicians and elected officials. T
