Very good morning to you welcome to the program live from the r. T. Worldview center here in moscow this tuesday 3rd of december its kevin over here youre 30 minute live update 1st and its a landmark day for nato leaders of the Member States are gathering in the u. K. To celebrate the military alliance is 70th anniversary present going to be there but some are expecting a showdown maybe because the u. S. Leaders been critical of nato recently ones calling obsolete but thats not the only problem the alliance is facing is nicaea and explains this morning. Happy best day nato is that 70 years of strategic economic and security stability especially if you ask them yourself nato is the most successful alliance in history that strive to join showing their historic suspects im going to problem later on and theyve been the most successful alliance in the history but not everyone is in a policy newt the thing is the Alliance Members just dont get along us. Well as they used. The advent of donald trump s 13 lease which stopped the dynamics nato is obsolete it covers the soviet union which is no longer in existence this led to questions over whether the alliance can even survive donald trump perhaps in an effort to mollify him nato has announced a new spending projections and a new formula which will spread the costs of the alliance in central budget between its members a move that might prevent any more embarrassing trump tirades aimed at his nato partners the relationship with nato has been very good the relationship with the secretary generals been outstanding i said it was obsolete. Its no longer absolute but the truth is hes not the only potential party pooper. In october this year president emanuel mccrone of france stole the spotlight when he dubbed nato strategically braindead while questioning the validity of article 5 of its founding treaty that is the commitment to collective Security System of the defense clearly nato is a collective Defense Alliance against who and what is organizing who is our common enemy what are our common issues these are questions that deserve clarification but this idea is quite similar to the one expressed by another dissatisfied nato member turkey. Turkey has not received the kind of robust support it expected from nato in recent years meanwhile turkeys president appeared to demonstrate his true feelings towards the alliance when he chose to spend money on Russian Defense systems rather than american. Pleasing model with nato member but despite these similar complaints about nato tensions have escalated between turkey and france in recent weeks with mccracken warning turkey that it cannot expect solidarity with its nato allies if it continues to carry out military operations in syria response 7 only up the ante so. Im talking to frances president in modern omicron and i will also say this at major press the wall have your own brain death checked as for the u. K. S Boris Johnson well theres not a verse or a gathering could not have come at a worse time. Or boris is clearly invested in maintaining the special relationship with the us he knows that a loose lipped troubled giving a glowing endorsement could be catastrophic donald trump is coming to terms with the shortly he offered his support for you and indeed for my colleague knowledge of russia on this Radio Station is that welcome what we what we dont do traditionally. As loving allies and friends will be to do traditionally is get involved in each others election caspita did when nato was forms the common goal was clear to stand against the u. S. S. R. But the thing that once held the Alliance Together is now the missing piece nato needs a purpose and result russia as an enemy they have no real purpose so it is propaganda to have russia as an aggressor and this is a good reason to buy a lot of. Rockets basis and so on and so on most probably they will continue to accuse russia to be an aggressor so they have a reason of existing and they would continue to buy arms billions of dollars and this is not their very good contribution to peace in the road so we asked people in london what they considered to be natos greatest achievement but as it turns out some simply were not aware of the alliance in the 1st place. People what they think are the main 3 achievements that they. Look at and they even though it. Says you know what it is in terms of achievements no i dont know what i have no idea any of on stage of me but you know i honestly dont know anything about it until the flags the other day and only my husband recognize what it was who its a good question. But the finger on the. So one is probably yeah to be honest i dont have i dont have even one. Americas rick sanchez us his guess that about the current purpose of nato if it really is obsolete. Youre a diplomat youve had a lot of experience in this field what is it that nato either must do today to stay viable or does do we even need it anymore you know its a bureaucracy in search of a mission i was right in 2016 when he said it was obsolete and so afraid was the establishment that he meant what he said on the very day he was inaugurated and they tried to ram through the addition of a new country montenegro thankfully they got it through because it turned out they didnt have to worry about the intentions once he filled his administration with a bunch of bushies and retreads of the Heritage Foundation theyve simply adopted of the policies weve had the last few decades and somehow turned it into nato is obsolete into lets make nato great again and well just strong on these countries to pay more for their defense against no putting in particular you think you know as in fact outlived its usefulness i thought so in 1990 s. Thinks so today its been obvious a little so from a standpoint of being a naturalized american and having read you know the Founding Fathers warning you cant seem to angling alliances i mean what is this but in entangling alliances are all Foreign Policy the reason nato is being kept around by the Foreign Policy hawks in washington is not because its necessary for the actual. Military operations nato itself doesnt really contribute a whole hell of a lot there are very few countries with the notable exception i want to say france and turkey but it would put it in as its not a good idea for the United States and its very close allies to have an association a military plan a class size thats what i was trying to say france and turkey could theoretically mountie independent military operations everybody else is just a hanger on and theyre just window dressing for us military operations but the are literally like roman exactly erisa want to do what ive been hearing go bad what word the word of the destruction would or would that is what it seems to be a dismissive alliance in 1991 when the soviet union and the warsaw pact would out of business nato should have as well as why didnt they let russia in that mean that literally that time ive read on many occasions booed himself and said what did you get is that what you are youre going to tell you who it was but one of the european european nato haq said if we did that the nato would be like the un just to talk shop it couldnt take action by which they meant military action all the way to listen to what you just said if youre saying it doesnt work if we dont have enemies exactly what if we had great to have had the ability to inflict military force and i dare to say aggression in places like serbia and libya whatever we want to using nato as a platform but enemies could change by the way russia could be s. O. B. s at one time like of the 1950 s. But not so much now. But better why dont you have a system that allows that ability i guess because because whose interest is that serve and all these all these are they that these these military companies and these bureaucrats who have the nice will rice balls at the expense of their taxpayers because there is a threat out there is a bear in the woods for. People including a woman who just given birth of reportedly been killed in a u. S. Drone strike in afghanistan missiles targeted the carrying 3 taliban militants who were killed along with 2 civilian passenger is the u. S. Military confirmed the strike. We are aware of the allegations of civilian casualties and working with local authorities to determine the veracity of these claims. The number of afghan civilians killed as a result of aerial strikes this years been the highest in a decade according to un data from january to september almost 900 civilians were either killed or injured nato Led Coalition airstrikes to cope with 3 quarters of the civilian casualties chris not in from the stop the War Coalition told us that all such operations he said must be holders of peace negotiations can start. Well i mean the strategy that has been pursued in afghanistan really since the very beginning in 2001 has been a complete disaster is an 18 year war that is actually appears to be getting worse now weve reached the highest level of civilian casualties for probably a decade this year in afghanistan these kind of attacks need to stop to win for there to be a negotiated solution which he so desperately needed for the people in afghanistan who suffered so many years of war and not just from the west but the previous wars a 3035 years of permanent warfare has absolutely devastated the country and it needs to end really for there to be any kind of progress any kind of possible solution for the people of afghanistan. To 11 past the others choose their morning hi there thanks for watching now we can report next week you know welcome you to new gold rush countries across the globe are trying to shake off the dependency on the dollar by buying up the yellow metal one latest example of slovakia its now thinking about restoring its gold reserves from u. K. Banks something of poland did a week ago arties dont call for explains. Its a 21st century gold rush countries around the world are looking to the precious metal to cure their dollar dependence the main switchers are china and russia but Eastern Europe is now joining in like many slovakia has its gold reserves in the u. K. And now former Prime Minister robert fico is trying to get it back because lets be honest last time the country trusted its fate with Great Britain it didnt end so well maybe its good as many you can hardly trust even the closest allies after the munich agreement i guarantee that if something happens we wont see a single gram of this gold lets do it as quickly as possible fico is at the helm of slovakias Biggest Political Party and he says its safer to keep the 31 tons of gold in his own country and away from the uncertainty of brags that the move isnt his original idea though days earlier poland recalled 100. 00 tons of its gold reserves from the bank of england and the polish National Bank was certainly happy about it we managed to increase the Strategic Reserves of gold and take steps through a patch ready to launch bonds of gold by implementing a constitutional statute or in simple patriotic commitment would not only build the economic strength of the police state but also great reserves that will save god its Financial Security this is the global trend but also the expectation of both society other Eastern European countries like hungry in serbia began recalling their gold as early as last year now the Mainstream Media has covered this new gold rush but what theyd probably like to avoid is admitting that its getting pretty close to home take germany it just increased its own gold reserves for the 1st time in 21 years even us economists are admitting the role of this precious metal is quite literally as good as gold the question is what else does the environment i think will be in and theres a saying that gold is the only asked you can have this not somebody elses liability. The d. Dollars ation of eurasia would support mr dennis brill view so would the shifter nondollar reserve assets such as gold such a change would force the u. S. To sell dollars in order to settle its balance of payments in the new neutral reserve asset the greenback has been very powerful for a very long time but if countries continue to look for other reserves standards it could mean the end for the dollars golden age as part of the attempt to break away from a in the dollar as a you know the trading currency in the reserve currency which gives the United States immense canonic and political power that along with sanctions plus the Swift International system of payments which allows the us to see who is who is violating the sanctions are not a gives us an incredible economic financial imperial power over other countries and it uses it whenever it can to get its way you know you can see all of the elements being used at once in the case of trying to destabilize the venezuelan economy for example we see all kinds of moves in that direction we see attempt to use other currencies to use gold alternative Payment System these are all trends just beginning the dollar is still dominant but they portend a list of the u. S. Global economic agenda any over the next decade. This is out International Live from moscow good morning come up with a program this choose stay off the break u. N. Peacekeepers in congo face a violent backlash and to tell to get out well tell you why ahead. Join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and ill be speaking to guests of the world of politics or business im showbusiness ill see it end. 2 people been killed and several injured as demonstrations continue in the democratic republic of congo. Just as march towards you in h. Q. In the east the country demanding they withdraw from the city they accuse the peacekeepers of failing to protect civilians from rebel attacks. Launched operations against the militant group the allied Democratic Forces in october and in response the rebels carried out massacres in an apparent bid to try to discourage civilians from helping the military. As the uns largest peacekeeping mission there over 16000 military personnel in the region the organizations operators of the democratic republic of congo for the past 20 years and its stated top priority there is to protect civilians from armed groups but locals are deeply skeptical about the presence of the peacekeepers. We want Different Military units in our country we no longer want all those soldiers who have been here for a long time. Their mission is to restore peace and to accompany the Government Forces but the population in the territory of benny has been mourning for at least 5 years there has not been a satisfactory reaction from moscow. Morris carney from the friends of congo believes that the problems are actually much bigger than a failed u. N. Mission a context in which the instability is taking place in eastern congo is one of 20 years of invasions wars of aggression are sponsoring of militia groups in the east of the congo plundering of Congo Minerals by congos neighbors over one and uganda in particular. That time during that aggression unfortunately has been backed by the members of the International Community the United States you know the kingdom im so there is a whole chain. Starting from local to international where there has been a lack of accountability where theres been a lack of justice where there has been impunity so a comprehensive approach is is needed now a question of assuring that the u. N. Troops are doing their mission. And their mission properly but there is an International System in place there. Of which the congolese people are. British athletes have allegedly been encouraged by team doctors to use unnecessary thyroid medication its led to speculation than about the widespread use of medication to boost athletic performance some drugs used to treat thyroid problems are not banned by the World Antidoping Agency but they have been shown to aid weight loss and recovery between training sessions boosting testosterone and enabling athletes to train harder suggestion than to use thyroid treatments was reportedly made by current England Football Team dr robert chuck reverts he was the u.

President donald trump has threatened another wave of terrorist by december 15th that will hit for the 1st time the supply chain of the consumer goods if a resolution is not met while merely a few weeks ago we had messaging of a phase one being close to done but now the optimism seems to be premature the u.

S. By suspending visits of u. S. Military vessels and aircraft to the city and sanctioning various u. S. Based n. G. O.
