That what we have seen to is thats not guessing what they need from china. Russia 3 d. Whats the problem up north korea to create more problems, to the end of the kicking, explicitly waiting process. Also coming up to exit us from the desert, one bath 1000 joints long lines to leave as the organizers of the burning man festival and nevada finally opened the only road out ahead of the basic time. What i want to do it again for another 34 days to say, where is the last 3 for this . Never. But were not in the trenches and the ukraine. Were not in in the refuge account. We are, were playing a game together and with us walk into the show. You can choose your neighbors, so you better live with them in peace and harmony. The russian saying sounds awfully cynical in light of wonder where food is war of aggression. Honest neighbor, ukraine. There are some neighbors been increasingly isolated. Russian leader does seem to be seeking peace and harmony with or at least to arms deals. Us Officials Say north Korean Leader kim jong will soon travel to russia to meet with fulton at the top of the engine. Now, a potential deal to supply russia with munition for the war and ukraine. The white house has already warned that north korea will pay a price if at supplies russia with weapons. North koreas military mines on full display celebration in july ma can be ended, the korean war Russian Defense minister. So it gave show you sort of side by side with the north korean president. The parade in the capital p on yang made a big show of north koreas expanding new killer program. But what russia needs is most simple. Ammunition, notably artillery shells and anti tank missiles, as many as they can get. You officials estimate that russia had spies it around 50000. 00 salary shells per day since inviting ukraine. International sanctions have limited, most goes options to replenish its supply. And so it appears to have turned to north korea, the joan yang hole, significant quantities of am munition. So analysts are unsure about the quality of its stuck piles, but north korea can also offer role materials, particularly on, or which russia can use to ramp up its own production of shells. Another question for you cranes. Western allies is what russia might give in exchange. In the immediate term, food is a top priority for appeal yang use of cove and lock downs and strangling sanctions. Have left many north koreans on the brink of famine. South korea suspects russia has offered to hold joint naval drills with china and north korea. A mirror to the annual exercises held between south korea and the United States. But many also see a russia may offer advanced technologies that could be used to the young youngs new killer program, a prospect that would violate over a dozen un sanctions. Danielle salisbury is an associated fellow the Royal United Services institute in the you can joins me now from oregon in the us. Mr. Sales. Very welcome to the day homework thing is this tightening alliance to you . I mean, its obviously very concerning. I sent to signing for multiple perspectives, so obviously to so i think for the war and ukraine and the russians procurement of what is to fuel level. And also from the perspective of those career sections and, and the nonproliferation regime, it looks like thats a part what exactly is putting hoping to get from north korea here. Soon as i understand the pretend is most likely shopping for, for watching rehabs a few of the war. Obviously the war is, is stretching the Russian Defense industry and rushes to stop miles to the limits. And also its just probably looking to maintain significant stop off as well for other contingencies. And so its turning to uh, to a kind of an increasing a section upon us that they can rely on thoughts with technology. Yeah. But this wouldnt be the 1st time north korea sold arms to be used against ukraine. What . No, no. So we havent already seen uh sales of the battlefield rocket, some battlefield miss houses. And so im going to create the Russian Private military organization. Im gonna think weve also seen some sales o homes of artillery shells because we recently saw evidence that the ukranian military forces and catches of these on the battlefield. That russia is in a rather desperate position here. So came young only has a lot of leverage. What is he going to ask for and return to . Well, he also has the most career and the regime have needs. And this can be things that are as simple as, as uh, oil of food, if im such advisor, but also type logical needs. Im sorry, i please. So there is a risk that russia may assist those career resolve. Its a arms i possibly w m d programs as well. So you say uh, controlling, and well be looking for what technology in return for, for his, his technology that hes, hes wanting to supply that we have to bear in mind that russia is a member of the un Security Council. And in moscow has back you in the sanctions targeting for us Koreas Nuclear program for years. They couldnt this system that was stopping the regime from developing and trading weapons of mass destruction now collapse. Yeah, so it is very concerning. Um, i think since theres 2017, we havent seen any new sanctions put in place to to your own Security Council and we havent actually seen any entities added to the sanctions. Lets see the so the sanction system has kind of been on life support for a while. But i think you, for us, your words to me from being the, the kind of alongside china was, was trying to use feet with sections to, to be in our practice. We learned this whole process. You know, thats a real stuff change and, and it was kind of framing into the question the, the future of human sections more broadly. The us has made information about this needing public to dissuade north korean from engaging more closely with russia. Do you think this plan is likely to succeed a hi, i wouldnt be surprised if the mason goes ahead and there are some deals either made or seal that amazing. Whether we do here. Uh, one of those deals are, as in the asa, you know, i, i think its 5 as a, do you watch, move on to homes and essentially sang some preaching business. I might be kept secret on it. My feet down to the west intelligence agencies who can serve you well, not doing what i say. I dont really seem as much the, the, the us, the lesson dollars can do at this point. So if it is to find common ground, there is no way of stopping this, this strength and the lions from Going Forward has, i mean, i think one of the, one of the challenging, posit this as well as the shared line border when she could answer a move across all kinds of kids where theres a new technology or things like a few other furniture lines or whatever is traded in real time because of the shuttle on board. And theres probably Little People to do to interject our shipment. So all that kind of thing. Um so, so yeah, i would say theres probably not much that we can do apart from uh, what you learn at this point. And theres a bleak outlook. Mr. Failed for a. Thank you so much for your time. Thank you. Here by says it has uncovered a trafficking ring recruiting people to find for russia and ukraine. The government of nevada believes nationals living, and russia as well as back home are being signed up under false pretences, cuba as a close ally of russia. But after the allegations became known to Foreign Ministry, felt compelled to stress it is not involved in the war and ukraine and added that authorities are working to dismantle the network. And the statements by the Foreign Ministry was read out on cuba, national television, and i believe we have that statement for you. Lets say wait and bring it a 10 minute video. The video to the, to the ministry of the interior detected and is working to neutralize. Im this month old people, the human traffic and networks that operates from russia to incorporate cuban citizens living the and even some from cuba. Things to the military forces, participation the military operations in new cranes without seeing, its mainly guessing it will put on you. Attendance of this nature be neutralized thing and criminal proceedings have been initiated against people involved in these activities looking for to get out of us and stuff like that. Wed always speak now and to dr. Lewis bice, when he was a professor of sociology at Palm Beach State College in florida, in the us is also the coal president of the Palm Beach Center for democracy in policy research. And he wrote the book of latin america and the post chavez era. The Security Threat to the United States, dr. Flushing. Welcome to the day and cuba and russia have historically been allies. Why one, havana air is grievances, so publicly by the i think a, this is my view. Of course i might use that. I know hes trying to do the see, i would say, because i find how to believe that there would be uh, a Package Network that was open a door to good. Cool. What do you, what sort of yours, without the knowledge of the cuban government . So i believe thats right now what they have trying to go east to receive, to basically make believe that they have not support. Thats a possibility. All right, so what youre saying is that cuba is actively sending cuba nationals to russia or, or how can we interpret what youre saying as well, according to peace on us defense, which itself yeah, blue book, unique size leaving my buddy. Hes the cuban government, easy board. I wouldnt be surprised because then he sent me entire way to the cuban government actually own. Do you know by the soldiers to fighting different braces in after the guy you know, going out even in the city, getting the young fort worth. But that was many definitely with the company, but it doesnt matter the separate issue. And also it was many big gates ago, the cuban restaurant when i went into cornwall, and now the scenario returns. And the scenario that there must be precisely because of both these parties. All right, so youre leaning on his history like what, what real evidence is there for that . When hes very interesting because the things here hes a you know, is very, very to be because what the, what the piece of information you get there is no, everything is one way you wont be either i or my sociology associate sociology. I speak to the late that few of us i so they should be going on the guys, these cannot be held by anybody else except russia. And on the other hand, keeping the conflicting. Okay. Im giving them given the new competition. I can say that they exist between russia and the United States. Russia go the bills or both resorted to many communities. And you guys definitely, you know, maybe come handed me, one of these, these every team that easy. I bet aside your situation the, where the United States. Yes, but the United States are watching cuba as well as russia quite closely. Dont you think that Us Intelligence wouldve picked up on have an outstanding cuban soldiers to fight and ukraine . Thats a possibility, but may or may not, you know, not to not be able to think we know that from 911 on the other, the examples that the, the, you know, the, the Us Security Services and dont be given anything. Okay. And dont get be able to think about it on the face or basically the thing that takes everything. All right. I think the, im very much in the speculation here. But i want to look at the Bigger Picture with, you know, um, how has this more transformed rushes role in latin america . Well 1st before a deal to start with these war, i think i need to expand it in eastern europe, crash shop. So to expand the left in america, taking advantage of the fact that there were a new regina, that when im the one who speaks to the United States, many so a lot me got out why or the right. And so these gram continues seems barely, i would say seems barely 2000 seems particularly since 2010 me. So a is not the 1st time that the brush up, it shows these black, you know, maybe can countries but now more than ever, even they want, you know, great. Yeah. And is it just anti american sentiment that, that unites these countries though, because that is, that is not really a stable basis for, for meaningful cooperation. Is it, you know, i think it, these, uh, im gonna gather things these companies. I mean these redeem side of the revolutionary ad on many aspects, but one of the elements that got expedited is on these redeems east. Precisely the needs of the United States. These like the itd be such as the state the that the United States has exploded like, you know, maybe downtown to these throughout the they gave me draw the yes i am far we have not seen the only among the think or she seemed like, you know, maybe got such as me got are when really sway not in cuba, but also a im on a country such as but as even the impedance. Okay. But the fact that the joining breaks, let me jump in there because i, i do want to get back to the war in ukraine. A number of countries in latin america have been reluctant to condemn russias invasion of ukraine. Now, anti american sentiment assigned that as an invasion of an, you know, a sovereign country. Um, are they really on russia side here . In my view, they yeah. They, yeah. They claim you, bradley d id that you know like, but as the 40 is that they claim that they want to be mediate or switching these. But the, these that if you look at the one that ive seen about these chords, itd be clear that he definitely seemed but very sweet. Okay, have you 5, he pointed st. Lensky. Im sick for they may go for these war even though they have very strong came from russia. So in my opinion, yes, the site with restaurant even though they dont acknowledge that they wouldnt recommend that they wouldnt acknowledge that. But i think you might your opinion, they do site with rash, i guess. Right, that was those flash one of the Palm Beach State College. Many thanks. I slokum the burning man festival in nevada is often described as a once in a lifetime experience. And this years edition certainly was unlike any other before. After the deserts turned into a sea of mud, organizers have now reopened the only road leading out of the site, allowing stranded revellers to head home. Earlier, heavy rains had converted the desert grounds into a monday bath, leaving 70000 burners, as they call themselves to make the best of terrible conditions. The exodus was long and tedious as thousands of vehicles sneak their way along this 8 kilometer stretch. Desperate to get out of the northern nevada desert and onto the nearest highway. A summer storm had left them stranded heavy rains to turn the ground at the annual Counter Culture celebration into a sea of mud happens opened up on friday. The rain tore down installations, leading organizers to cancel events, and institute a driving bad as a safety precaution. When the rain came down, well just kind of went back to our tents and hung out with each other and waited until it stops. It was incredibly muddy. We had to a lot of us put bags over our shoes or take them over our feet in order to protect our fee or our shoes. But overall, it wasnt bad, nothing bad happened. It was just money. The tired revellers carrying mud covered bags at the nearest airport in reno, offered mixed feelings about this years event i had under basic time. Would i want to do it again for another 3 or 4 days to say, where is the last 3 for this . Never. But were not in the trenches in the ukraine. Were not in in the refuge account. We are, were playing a game together in the desperate i wish that there was a little bit more communication in terms of events like that. So you, especially for those of us who come knowing we cant get refunds. And just knowing that we spent a lot of time and money to get out here. The annual burning man celebration attracts tens of thousands of musicians. Artists, an activist, every Year Community and Self Reliance are among the Core Principles of the annual gathering values which were very much put to the test at this years event day protocol. Is that the festival and he enjoys this now from austin, texas to share his experience j. You were one of tens of thousands stuck in the month. When did you realize that you were not going to be able to leave as well . It was a, it was a really great experience. I think we realized when start like the bicycle stopped moving in the mud and as people were trying to make their way back to the camp, they would get stuck. And then the rain started much quicker and faster and we realized something was probably going to be changing very soon. And how did people deal with being trapped in the desert . And was there ever a sense of anxiety or, you know, maybe even panic . Absolutely. There people, initial thoughts were on my gosh, how are we gonna get home . Is the man going to burn . Are we going to have as much fun as possible . But i think once people started realizing that resistance was few tile, uh your anxiety and everything went away. And once we came to a moment of acceptance, youre able to really actually enjoy the festival much, much more that had not happened. It can you paint a picture, maybe for the people that do not know burning man and how it functions where youre not scared about running out of supplies before being able to leave, being stuck in the middle of a desert as well. That was actually a very real idea because you have to bring and everything with you. Luckily, most people they planned for a few days extra than what theyre going to stay there for. And at the time, there was a lot of of misinformation we werent sure if would be 3 or 4 days. We werent sure if it was going to be a week. But luckily everyone banded together and just started sharing whatever extra things they had for people that who maybe didnt have enough water or doesnt have enough food. And you know, so were able to share, weve got the resources that we had, especially we had a lot of beer. And as soon as we started passing that out, everyone started really lightning and it became like a lot better. All right. How did you eventually get out because you managed to mean quote unquote escape on sunday. This is where you come in and leave your seat. Yeah, so what happened was, once we realized it blow and chris rock were able to hide out to the road, we decided that, you know, what we can do is to and there was a couple of camp maids, a couple neighbors. I really need to get out, so we put a garbage bags on our feet and we just started fudging away. Luckily, before long we were picked up by some of the cars and our these, our already kind of on the outskirts of the pliers. So they werent really stuck in the center of the camp. And the people on the outskirts were able to just kind of push through and drive through. Luckily we were able to catch a ride all the way back to reno. So we got really lucky actually. You did mess the big highlight though, right . Because the festival accommodates with the burning of the man having gotten out on sunday, were you a bit disappointed or were you happy that you managed to get out when you, when you didnt manage to well it, you know, i really need to get back from my daughters birthday, which was today. So happy birthday sophia. But what happened was, once we got out, we realized that you know, that the spirit was still on. We still have friends that we were able to communicate with inside of the burning man and event. I was able to watch it on the live stream luckily, and also i was listen to the be on my, our radio. So it kind of felt like you were. Busy there supporting each other, and also we were able to just kind of talk about our experiences and help people understand what was going on is going to be okay. Youll be able to get out soon enough. So just enjoy the ride while youre there. It sounds all very positive, but there must have been something that, you know, you didnt miss when you got out. Oh, i mean, it was definitely, uh the, there was a sense of relief in the same day. Theres other lows and other highs. People are breaking down left and right. So theres, theres this sense of community and thats really what the beauty beauty of it is that there really brings together humanity in a way where if people are down, theres other people to lift them up. Everything really kind of highlights the fact that love is greater than sir. And in those scenarios, despite all the things happening in the world, humanity can still band together and go through any kind of adversity. There was quite a bit of shot in front of the online about you guys getting stuck in the desert. How did you feel about that . Uh well, uh, i actually didnt mind it. I thought, you know, as long as uh they start the air dropping of the water. And molly, you know, we might make it up. Ok, but im not sure shit. Im just joking. But yeah, it was fun. It was good. I think it was um, you know, there was a lot of people that are upset, but once you realize that, hey, youre stuck here and theres nothing you can do about it. You really just need to kind of like make the best of a bad situation. And the end up being an amazing situation really at the end. We dont have too much time, but maybe a yes or no really be going back next year. Oh, only if it rains only if it rains when i go back. All right, those days are gone.
