Hello and welcome everybody, its half past noon here in the iranian capital, tehran, youre watching press tvs world news, our top story for this half hour, political and fighting in the us house of representatives is plungeed congress into chaos, the Lower Chamber has voted to remove speaker Kevin Mccarthy. On this vote, the yase are 2 16, the nays are 2 10, the resolution is a. A without objection, the motion to reconsider is laid on the table, the office of speaker of the house of the United States house of representatives is hereby declared vacant. The republican was dismissed in a historic of vote triggered by rare challenge from his own party. Republican representative matt gates filed motion late monday to force vote on removing mccarthy gates and a handful of allies critic. Mckarthy for relying on democratic votes to pass a temporary funding measure that headed off a partial government shutdown. He launched a skating attack on mccarthy in uh his house speech. Mr. Speaker, my friend from oklahoma says that my colleagues and i who dont support Kevin Mccarthy would plunge the house in the country into chaos. Chaos is Speaker Mccarthy. Chaos. Is somebody who we cannot trust with their word. The one thing that the white house, House Democrats and many of us on the conservative side of the republican caucas would argue is that the thing we have in common, Kevin Mccarthy said something to all of us at one point or another that he didnt really mean and never intended to live up to. Some republicans have also expressed frustration over deal mccarthy made. With President Biden earlier this year to cap spending levels in return for raising the debt ceiling. Tuesdays vote marked the first time in us history, a speaker has been austed. Meanwhile Kevin Mccarthy has spoken to media representatives after he was voted out of his job, mccarthy has blasted what he called institutional problems in us congress. You know whats . Interesting, everybodys sitting there, in todays world, if youre sitting in congress, and you took a gamble to make sure government was still open, and eight people can throw you out a speaker, and the democrats they wanted to keep government open, i think you got a real divide, i think you got a real institutional problem, my fear is the institution fell today, because you cant do the job. If eight people, you have 94 of or 96 of your entire conference, but eight people can partner with the whole other side, how do you govern . The former us House Speaker was referring to the eight hard right republicans who joined 208 democrats, described them as angry and chaotic, he added that he wont attempt to reclaim his post as Speaker Mccarthy did not say whether he plans to remain a member of congress either. Our washington correspondent colin kemple joined us earlier to uh give us more details on the outster of the us House Speaker. Well we have to remember that mccarthy won his position or now his former position by very slim margin. He was always going to be controlled by the most extreme members of his party because one of the stipulations that was made for him to become speaker of the house was that only one member of the house could uh vote in of opposition or could call vote and position to his leadership, which is what happened with matt gates, who was part of what many considered to be the maga movement, the make America Great again movement, which has been uh fueled and supported by former president donald trump, so once he mccarthy made the deal with democrats to keep the government going for another 45 days, uh, gates felt like he was overstepping his boundary and called a vote to remove him to vacate. The office of speaker of the house, which he did quite successfully, in fact, so the ramifications here now is that the house will not be working for the next several days, it indicates broken government and the us, they plan to have uh vote next week as to who will replace mccarthy, some believe that steve skallist is the next person in line, other people have talked about jim jordan, but it remains to be seen who will replace mccarthy. Russia says it is intercepted and shot down 31 drones launched by ukraine over the regions bordering ukraine. Russias Defense Ministry said the drones were spotted and intercepted over the regions of belgrad and kursk. The ministery added that russian jets also averted a ukrainian attempt to penetrate into the crimea region via sea. There were no immediate reports of potential casualties or damage from ukraines latest aerial and naval strikes. Meanwhile, the governor of russias Southern Region of brionsk reported that Ukrainian Forces fired cluster munitions but caused no casualties or damage. Ukraine has stepped up crossborder drone attacks since the country launched its counter offensive early june. Russia says it has repelled most the attacks, downplaying their significance. Germanys military assistance to ukraine under growing criticism. Now protesters have demonstrated. And a public display of disconent with the uh arm supplies to kiev. The rallies were held in the cities of berlin and munich. The demonstrator said germanys decision to send more weaponry to ukraine risks escalation of the conflict with russia. Some protesters demanded that germany uh pull out of the nato military alliance, some said the. United states is benefiting from germanys intervention in the russiaukraine war. Im mainly concerned with crisis intervention and resolving this Armed Conflict on the one hand, on the other hand, of course, there are trends in the militarization of germany. After all, from purely political point of view, germany is right in the middle, and america is shamelessly taking advantage of that too, using citizens through. Policy to perhaps ultimately use them for their own goals and ukrainian citizens were also exploited. Germany is among western countries that have provided ukraine with a wide range of weapons since the war erupted in february 2022. Russia has repeatedly said the influx of western arms will only prolong the war and add to the suffering of ukrainians moscow has also warned the west that such arms trans у локалізації виробницtва tехніки необхідні нашому захису tа кожної із tих передових evident in this tweet, glorifying the оборонних сисtем, які викорисtовуюtься нашими воїнами і даюtь сьогодні україні найкращі резульtаtи на фронtі. His excitement was military manufacturers, and the dikwaine is determining that. Finally, the truth is out in the open. Normalizing zelensky style, and many would argue that was one of the goals of the us. In his proxy war with russia, except now, the ukrainian president has turned ukrainians into proxies of the military, Industrial Complex as well as the pentagon. Zelenskys sentiment was related while kiev hosted 252, Defense Industry corporations from 30 different countries. Zelenski urged the war profiteers to open factories in ukraine to cut out the middleman. Included phrases like the defense Industrial Complex, arsenal of the free world, and a special economic regime for the defense Industrial Complex. Consider what the ukranian president is promoting, award to the military manufacturers, to show prospective buyers and investors how various military equipment can rip apart human bodies in order to profit from death and destruction. These are the gruesome stats so far. Over 27,000 ukrainian casualties. Meanwhile, russias military casualties have approached 300,000. The russian numbers dwarf the ukrainian figures, which officials put a closest 7000 killed, and between 100 to 120,000 wounded. Well, the ukraine war may be experiencing setback, and that is a funding coming from the us in order. Not to have a Us Government shut down a bill was passed that excluded ukraine assistance for ukraines president zelenski, that may be bad news, but western arms manufacturers are keend to set up shop inside of ukraine to manufacture their products like germany and the uk. Perhaps Like Northern time, the war in ukraine, which russia calls a special military operation, finds itself at crossroads. The bill is passed and with that objection the motion to reconsider is laid on the table. Us Congress Just passed an 11th hour funding bell that excluded aid for ukraine. This means the us president s hands are tied in order to keep the aid flowing, at least for now. To make matters worse, the pentagon has said theres only 5. 2 billion dollars left to provide military support for ukraine. Additionally, they count that the us used for a longterm program to mode. And to increase its compatibility with nato, is empty. On the surface, that may sound like a bad thing, but if you think about it, thats great news. Maybe the war may come to an end soon. That, however, depends on who you ask. The eu Foreign Policy chief is not too happy about the us turn of events. Our support to ukraine not only continues, but increases, at least by the. And being the proposition on the table shows that we want to continue and increasing it, and to tell the truth, we were surprised by the fact that the last minute agreement has taken a decision that we have to regret, europe is reluctant for this war to end, it has believed the us line that russia poses an existential threat to it, this is part of the reason why the uk has announced that it will send military instructors to the country. It will also transfer training and production of military equipment to ukraine. With you, we feel um your pain. There is one important fact behind this announcement which was made by the uk defense secretary. The important point that the uk will send military instructors to ukraine all to happen on ukrainian soil. Theres an american saying that says war is racket and the uss big five is very well aware of that. They are bowing general dynamics, lockied martin, north rope grummon and rathion, who split more than 150 billion dollars in pentagon contracts annually, thats nearly 20 of the total pentagon budget. Ever since the ukraine war began, they have reaped huge profits and in turn have contributed to the us economy. Europe is following suit, and why shouldnt they . Their economies are not doing that well, and like the us, they want a piece of the pie, to manufacture weapons in ukraine in order to make up for some of the funds that they sent there. We mentioned the uk, germanys military manufacturer, rain metal has also announced that it will operate a Maintenance Plant in ukraine. But americans are angry, they want the support to stop. Its the United States. And nato who are the the art to blame and the fundamental cause of the conflict in ukraine and that if we can force the Us Government to stop uh sending money and weapons to ukraine, the war will end the very next day. And in germany, use powerhouse, things are pretty bad when doctors protest the high cost of living. The clinics have no choice but to protest because we have to make sure we have money by the end the month to pay all this stuff and house rent. Moving on, Britains National health service, leaders of expressed concerns over the ongoing strike action in england by Junior Doctors and consultants for the first time, nhs boss has acknowledged that the 72hour joint walkout is causing significant.

Radiographers also joined them and walked out of jobs for a day, meanwhile members of the British Medical Association or taking part in rally in manchester, urging fair pay deal. Well negotiate with any party in government. A change of government will not end this dispute a fair pay deal will. Well speak to the tories, well speak to labour, well speak to libdems, well speak to anyone who is. Willing to value doctors and aim to actually retain them, the goal of government should not be just to end strikes, it should be to keep doctors in the nhs to help with retention, with recruitment, to have a credible workforce plan that delivers for patients and theyre failing on every single aspects, bma members demanded significant pay rise for all doctors to combat 26 paycut over the past 15 years, they also expressed concerns about the ongoing trend of doctors leaving for countries such as australia, canada, new zealand and ireland.
