ideology of the national mm. a a headlines right now here we're not the international as gigi pings trip to moscow directly after his re election is an indication that russia china relations have entered a new era. that is the message from the russian prime minister during his tuesday meeting with china's president, with the prime minister of palestine slams israel for being driven by an extreme race. this policy is companies just off that one of israel's pop officials said there was no indian mission. also in the program, a former us ambassador says sanctions against russia can be lifted only if president

putin turns himself into authorities at the hey this as many officials across the world have already admitted the sanctions have ultimately failed with well, sadly the west and the political establishment has ringing the alarm bells about today as it is a day to all the chinese president's visit to moscow. a big things are happening. many steps being taken to accelerate the growth of the multi polo world. ah, so the chinese president gigi peng arrive again that moscow at the kremlin, i should say, he just got down to the kremlin roughly an hour ago to go through a big ceremony with the russian president vladimir putin. a right now the leaders

are set to hold talks with delegations from both sides present at this meeting. now before the start of the talk to vladimir putin, angie jing thing shook hands and listen to each other's national anthems by russia . china relations have successfully overcome many difficulties over the years, and that defined the logic of choosing moscow as a 1st place to visit after the presidential reelection. that is, according to president g ging we'll, let's get details. now, from at the welcoming ceremony are senior correspondent, but at guest members of the press, predominantly chinese press and russian press have been split into little groups with all of the kremlin in the corridors and in the halls awaiting the statement from the president's. the leaders of china and russia, she jumping and vladimir putin. a lot people here believe the journalists, we've talked to, i believe a lot hinges on what they will have to say. we've heard many good things of the

course, the last 2 days about a new era about a new chapter in russians inside russian relations. we've also heard that relations now are better than at any time in history better than they have been in centuries and centuries. that russia and china won't afford an unbreakable bond, both economic and political, but just a touch. earlier, the chinese president was speaking with the russian prime minister, a both officials emphasizing the close relationship between both countries. while it follows a logically from their deep harris, historical ties, that's according to them have on this sanchez, 10 years ago after my 1st selection to the post of chairman, my 1st foreign 3 boss to russia. i clearly remember this was it. and it remains in my memory. the fact that i chose ros shows my thirst for him was a tough to be real actors is completely consistent with historical logic because

our countries are the largest neighbors and comprehensive strategic partners. our relationship has gone through many trials over the years and has grown stronger day by day rosner, despite the unfavourable external situation. turbulence in global markets, increasing sanctions from the collective west trade in economic cooperation between russia and china is developing successfully. last year. our trade has increased by almost a 3rd and approached a $190000000000.00. i am convinced that this year we will fulfill the tasks set by you and president putin, to bring our mutual trade to $200000000000.00. where he was speaking to the director, the r e u study center at redmond university, who says that ultimately, despite what the western establishment says, china and russia can become a model of too powerful states promoting peace around the world tongue under russia and pendant countries. the p 5 member of the united nation is for the council. our

relations cannot be hijacked by any other 3rd party or emergent hospital ergo, ukraine, and a secondary, we support un that system, including, of course, to integrate in a sovereignty which all the countries at any cases should be respect. tonawanda and russia has lots of, you know, seem to talk to guarantee their un assist in the post or what was international order, not otherwise the us and europe in a now with a new base internet in order to be re omni, depend, germany as put into danger, and even until now 2nd to be i think a time that russia we are, as i mentioned is a model of the new type of population. so they're not aligned mostly confrontation, not talking to any sort of party. this is a very crucial is a model and as the order now breaks and also an, a chinese and russians leaders price of each other, respect each other. so all that a strongly to stay with the president put in the pet and i see the chinese beam the

russians have been i will have the synergies. so i think that's the hope for the model follow what and then with and resisting international relations. well, as many analysts thought, saying over these days, president injuries visit a moscow to testify as well to the robust friendship and partnership between china and russia. at the end of the day, there were some powers of long fear such an alliance and they have been trying to prevent. it may sound like a conspiracy theory, but it's not handed over. now to our correspondent, his fif sweet chinese president changing, paying as arrived in russia to the alarm of the united states and other western countries. days before he landed, the international criminal court issued an arrest warrant against president flooded putin. and what some of seen as a politically motivated move to undermine that the ties between the 2 nations. but the bond between russia and china with strong, they share close links in the economic,

scientific and military space is the partnership in the bricks alliance. and the shanghai cooperation organization is deepening. washington has long opposed russia, china relations, which it views as a threat to a u. s. dominated unipolar world. he is a reminder of some of its previous statements around the world. we face rogue regimes, terrorist groups, and rivals like china and russia, that challenge our interests, our economy, and our values. in confronting these horrible dangers. we know that weakness is the sures path to conflict and unmatched power is the surest means to our true and great defense. you can call them our friends if they're building weapons that can destroy united states of america. and therefore, we have to develop the capability to respond the u. s. which has lawrence at least

251 military intervention since 1991, according to its own government sauces. stands accused of hypocrisy, both china and russia, and this is right out in, in the national security strategy are 2 countries that are chasing against this international rules based order that the united states. and so many of our allies and partners have built up since in world war 2. it is almost as if iraq, afghanistan, libya, chile, nicaragua, and the countless other u. s. invasions and involvement include against democratically elected governments never happened. and does it washington doesn't have hundreds of military bases surrounding china while flooding taiwan with arms. well prowess, toughness dance against china and russia when night, who identified beijing as a systemic challenge to euro atlantic security and accused the path of undermining global stability. the deepening strategic partnership between the people's republic of china and the russian federation. and they're mutually reinforcing attempts to

undercut the rules based international order run counter to our values and interests. returning to the day, washington has ramped up the rhetoric warning of the defense and security links between the 2 countries. with the u. s saying, without providing evidence that china was preparing to send alms to russia to use in the conflict in ukraine. you're very concerned that china's considering providing lethal support to russians aggression against ukraine, but it is china that has outlined a 12 point piece plan for ukraine while the west has undermined and opposed negotiations. beijing was quick to hit back at washington, st. china, russia relations. and now more important than ever, it is the u. s. site, not the chinese site that is supplying a steady stream of weapons to the battlefield. the u. s. site is not qualified to dictate to the chinese site. we also never accept the u. s. dictating will even coercing pressure on signer russian relations. the more unstable the world becomes,

the more imperative it is for china and russia to steadily advance their relations . while russia has accused washington of pressing the west to adopt a hostile approach to the 2 nations, let loose the world in order to pursue their course of domination, primarily in the interest of containing russia and china, the americans lacked her own forces, which is why they need what they are doing now, not a partial, but a complete mobilization of the western camp, which is our relationship with the people's republic of china, of course is going through absolutely the best times in the history of this relationship our leaders say. so you remember how these relations were characterized by our chinese friends in their time that it is not in a science, but in many ways it is stronger than an alliance that'd live seen the 2 countries develop stronger economic ties with trade increasing by nearly 30 percent to a record $190000000000.00 in 2022 relations even extend to outer space

with basing of moscow inking a cooperation bill, which last until 2027. as talks between the 2 leaders are expected to see more agreements. it is clear that the more the west trying to drive a wedge between russia and china, the stronger that ties become. well, a political analyst, alexander papa. she says that although the mainstream media paints a different picture, china and russia are seeking a peaceful resolution in ukraine, while western states remain opposed as has already been confirmed by john kirby, formerly of the us state department. china and russia have been engaging peace in their shadows this year, not just this year, but this year has been marked by russian and chinese successful peace initiatives. on the other hand, ah, in this year, the west has repeatedly turned down. any chance of thieves in ukraine and it bothers them, the piece might break off actually. and that's a huge,

huge contrast that everyone can see between this saw flailing. our unipolar world is obviously going into sunset permanent, sunset. and this multi polar world in a, you couldn't, he couldn't see a more opposite. ah, image. ah, you have the, the, the number one nuclear power in the world as russia. you have the number one economic power in the world is china. and they're engaged in brokering piece everywhere. was there not to wipe about the meeting ah, between our 2 chinese and the russian leader. i don't. they're not threatening one. they're not, ah, imposing sanctions on any one. they're not telling others how to live. a prominent u. s. lawyer, so the only way for international sanctions against russia to be lifted is for

president putin to turn himself into western authorities at the hague. that's all on, according to our steven rappe, who previously served as the u. s. ambassador at lodge for war crime issues. this makes boot in a pariah. if he travels, he risks arrest. this never goes away. russia cannot gain really from sanctions without compliance with the warrants. well is comment her coming shortly after the international criminal court issued and arrest warrant for vladimir putin. of the court accused the russian president of abducting children from the conflict zone in ukraine. as russia has maintained that it has been evacuating civilians that are in danger. amid intense fighting. rushes economy has suffered to a lesser degree from the west and sanctions that many analysts expected when they were initially imposed all the way back. in 2014, russia has been restructuring its domestic production and focusing on exports to non western countries that are refused to comply with the restrictions. we

just speak to talk to jack ross, miss a professor of economics at st. mary's college of california who says that international, the international criminal court move, well, he says it's a desperate bid to further isolate russia. so it sanctions policy has not been affected. affective le, russia's economy has not really been impacted seriously. it's, it's currently not collapsed. it's still selling oil and revenue and other other industrial commodities. unemployment rate is probably better than some places in europe, inflation rates, not that great. great. um and the, you know, the growth rate. well it slipped a little bit. not much, but that's true throughout the world many economy. so the sanctions have not had the effect on russia. and you might interpret these moves, you know, with the i c, c and the price caps is kind of

a desperate moves they want regime change. they made a us nato, a new thing. they can get it by getting ready for a potent and not putting up, wanted to price on his head, so to speak. you know, quote a post out here in moscow as the french writs. hi am and age is being raised to cover government coffers that are very short. more and more money is being sent to ukraine. i. e. u. defense and foreign ministers of agree to a 2000000000 euro ammunition plan for re supplying the ukrainian army will, will again discuss the situation in ukraine and the support to be given to it. in particular, on the basis of the high representatives proposal concerning the use of the european piece facility from munition in order to accelerate the transfer of ammunition to ukraine. this will allow group purchases and therefore faster deliveries at better prices. and finally, with the objective of strength thing, european production capacities, this is a concrete way to help ukraine. the funding is to be conducted in 2 stages. first,

the e. u, as a set to transfer a 1000000000 euros for ammunition, that can be quickly delivered. the 2nd stage is to funding a joint procurement pushed to produce nato caliber, $155.00 millimeter artillery shells. author and political analysts of nicola markovich says that while focusing on ukraine western elite, so turning a blind eye to their own country's internal problem. we discovered that there is money, there is money, but unfortunately it's not used for the europeans. the europeans are going through a very tight economic situation. now, inflation has skyrocketed. we've got unemployment, we've got many social problems for ukraine. they found 2000000000 and this is 2000000000 that has to be added to already at the billions of years, which have already been spent by the european union and the u. s. for the war and ukraine. so the money is there. it's just that this has become the priority of the european union. the leads in brussels are totally disconnected from the rest of the

population in 2014, when there was a civil war in ukraine to try to broker piece your opinion and never look for peace . it has been looking for war and now it's a, it's, it's getting 2000000000 euros worth of ammunition to ukraine. and this is going to cause a lot of debt, lot of casualties, and definitely it will have consequences for the rest of europe. or let's go to the middle east now where the palestinian prime minister says the current israeli government is extremist and driven by a racist sentiment. or the statement comes after a top is already official said there is no such nation as palestine. it doesn't have a language or even a history in local city how to let the i'd love the statement by is really minister smooth trish that there is no palestinian nation and that it was invented within the last 100 years is conclusive evidence of the extremist racist and scientist, ideology that drives the current israeli government. it was her as very,

extremely controversial in many se, inflammatory statement by israel finance minister, the head of the countries fall right. a religious zionism party who is also, ironically in charge of the palestinian the fairies in the country's new government . mrs. moore to each went as far as saying there is no such nation as palestinians . there is no such thing as a palestinian nation. the reason o palestinian history, there is no palestinian language. palestinian prime minister's reaction was quick obviously and furious. he accused israel of racism and extreme it. no, no levying out plaintively phillips. we are the ones who gave palestine its name and the land, its value in status. this land is ours. israel is a colonial state established by settlers. it expanded like any other colony has done throughout history. but we have learned from history. the colonialism will ends. the will of our people is not shaken by fabricated claims from the falsifier

of history. what is your statement came on the same day as israeli and palestinian delegations with mediation all the wives, jordan and egypt held at security. some attain sharma. shay? have the taking steps to ease boiling tensions on the ground. the situation and the region escalated recently dramatically with increasing casualties from both sides since the beginning of the year. at least 15 israelis have been killed in terror attacks, including the nice traversal him as well as more than 80 palestinians, mostly in idea of milton waves in the north of the wide west, the bank. so tensions are really boiling on the ground and the un you, as you all have repeatedly called on both sides to come down and on israel, specifically to try to avoid have provocative actions such as supplement expansion . all policy in house is demolition, or strong words provocative words. of course in this context of death for

international attendance to discuss the situation, jordan and egypt condense more to just claims. these really ministers remarks deny the facts of history and geography and undermine the efforts aimed at achieving calm between the palestinian and israeli sides. when you think it can be any worse, it turns out that small threats while given his opinion on the palestinians, was talking in front of a map of great israel that included jordan, the form history of the kingdom already. we acted describing this act as reckless in spite lynn that finally stage, or minion, israeli peace, treaty, and international norms. if we shall jerusalem, had to be quick to enjoy and to come the situation by saying that israel recognizes jordan's territory integrity and nothing has changed in this position closely. her hello. so the yet the, her, the statements made by minister in his rate a government, a racist inflammatory and provocative the release of these statements from a podium presenting an alleged map of israel that includes the occupied palestinian

territories and includes the hashemite kingdom of jordan. these are statements, positions, and actions that are inflammatory, racist, and reflect an exclusionary racist annex 3, mister you. we have affirmed our condemnation denunciation and rejection of this. and we have communicated with the international community to highlight the danger of such exclusionary racist inflammatory doors and its repercussions not only on the peace process, but also in terms of the message it sends about the danger of this extreme, this racist thought. there was already a reaction from israel's western allies, the foreign policy change described. the statement has unacceptable disrespectful and counterproductive. i'd have to deplore this unacceptable comment. it is wrong. it is disrespectful. it is dangerous. it is counter productive to say these kinds of things in a situation that is already very tense. could you imagine if

a palestinian leader would have said the state of israel does not exist? what would have been the reaction? had to say they, 3 weeks ago more rachel re drew international attention and international criticism after claiming that the palestinian town of how wire that had been suffering from a violent, brutal deadly attack by israeli settlers just the day before should be wiped out. he later publicly apologized and now he did it again or he did speak earlier in the program to the chairman of the jerusalem development fund, who says that the radical statements and approach, well, they've been building up the israel government for quite some time already done. so finally, assessment smallish, this is not the of nowhere statement. this is not the heat that has been developed. an ideology that has gained strength and begin stephen i, i don't trust these meetings on the sponsorship of the americans, the americans,

brewers something. ready that they both know they're not they always commit strategic mistakes and in the way they have ah, oh yeah. we can give you a lot of examples for the israeli, palestinian oh there are many cans. huh. a month, you know, they're not adopting a very efficient i'm the correct study. they know in fact that they do still solution that they are promoting and they are pushing it is becoming alive is. so these meetings, especially the recent ones on child, michelle, will not have any effect on the positive effect on the gone. but our finance and is ladies will continue to live the same reality mom as unapproved bishop

and then wouldn't be a lot of losses. you know, sometimes on both sides and did, the americans will continue to sponsor a show that will not need to understand russian air defenses have shot down a ukrainian drone over crimea, though one person injured by falling debris, a russian officials essentially saying that the drone was trying to target civilian areas. now as we understand our local officials, i say that a residential building was very badly damaged during the incident. at the local power grid was also damaged. and the motor seats, i was happy in working at the scene. now, heavy fighting has persisted in the battle for our trauma, also known as by move. it's a key city in a don't ask republic. i, russian officials saying it's forces have been expanding the area in the north and south, but also saying that that troops from the wagner, private military group are among their ranks. now, those fighters have been playing a large role in the advancing on the city as well. as evacuating locals of

correspond, romano culture if it's one refugee center. now in that region and talk to some of those who evacuated from our channels. hundreds of refugees from our thomas solids are and other towns have already passed through refugee sensors like this one. often they come here without anything, any belongings whatsoever. people bring humanitarian aid and they need basic necessities like underwear because once again, they leave their homes without anything at all. my subscribers and i have collected a few things and now will take them to this refugee center. with no, some bushel. la rockwell, so dual,

voluntarily went to evacuated roles i held out for 2 weeks from my home was completely destroyed. i had no other place to go. i have nothing left. wagner troops arrived. they looked around the rooms than they asked me to evacuate. they gave me cigarettes, food and water. i understood the attitude of the ukrainian army back in 2014. i go into my home then they come in, they stick a gun in my face and ask me who i am. they took everything. ready ready ready ready ready ready ready oh. ready oh yeah, i did the resolution as you nearby one house was destroyed, another burned down just there was rumble everywhere. then on march 15th, they began to shoot at my home. the final shot was, as i understand from a tank of it to ride through my home at peace of the shell fell right on the pillow

where my child had been sleeping just a couple of hours earlier. there was no roof, no windows, no doors. i took my child and ran a neighbor. then in the morning, the woman who was hosting us sat there was a soldier in my house. he said he was a russian from the walk in a group. at 1st i was terrified, but they turned out to be so kind. they gave a sweet and t and evacuated as refugees from areas currently controlled by ukraine, continued to arrive at temporary refugee sensors across to the next people's republic. here they given basic necessities. they are given a medicine, a local administration is doing everything they can solve their documentation, their passports, and all of that is expedited. now once they go through all the formalities, they leave these refugee centers, and some of them move further into russia, and some of them are reunited with their relatives here in jonas republic. but of

course, all of them are hoping to get home to our jo most very soon. rahman casa marty, done as for public millions of people and the eastern african nation of somalia are facing starvation is a dire shortage of food. ah, it is paula slayer. now examines the causes of the crisis in the latest episode of african. now yes, on the outskirts are the capital city of somalia, market issue ad and internally displaced the camp. there are little tens of thousands of people here. many has some them, all different kinds of the country. now people started coming here years ago, ready because of charge because of famine because of conflict in the areas. but the situation has deteriorated a lot since the recent grain crisis began a year ago, funding the russia ukraine conflict. the country is relying and has been relying on the we can grain that it gets some ration ukraine and those supplies for the better

part of the year have completely dried up. so you're looking at a famine that is going to kill millions of people. grain situation in its impact on the african continent is the direct consequence of the war in ukraine, which is an imperialist war. we should say, a war against russian people and thrashing state by our traditional enemies western imperialism. and now we are suffering in terms of our economies because our economy, se interlinked. what happens in russia is consequences for what have been everywhere in the world. and we know that our relationship with russia, in terms of this commodity of cranes and so on. it's, it seems, it's critical to the sustenance of the african continent. so the war his is directly responsible for the crisis which the world is experiencing, not just and african continents, even you don't be suffering as

a consequence of this war. and russia is really doing positive things under very difficult war situations, the russian economies under serious attack. and the russian economy needs all their resources entirely for its own sustenance. but even now, we see that they're extending the hand of solidarity to the african continent. and that is how address she has all is related to the african continent. or that's the program for now here on our team. but just to remind you, the importance of today cannot be underestimated. a china as president is currently in the kremlin, here at moscow with a vos delegation. we're talking about a whole new string of agreements being in moscow today. no surprise, the western political establishment is going mental. anyway, a lot of moving and shaking of the world. these days appreciate joining us here. this is the introduction ah .
