Taken by russian led forces and his from locals, who say the thomas on the fire every day. The community is remarkable for one reason. A lot of civilians still left here with just on 5 am on saturday morning here in moscow. My name is peter scott and wherever you jordans from welcome to 30 minutes of News Analysis or nazi. And we start off with joe bidens, much hyped meeting with the saudi crown prince. Muhammad been solomon, which kicked off with the fist pump for the earth president , has likely not achieved the main goal of his middle east trip. And thats to get more saudi oil to ease pump pain for american voters. Saudi arabia is clearly in no rush to open his tops for the United States, and our price is actually rose by 2 percent this friday. Thats as high petro prices in storing, inflation are further hurting the president s ratings back home. However, after the meeting with the saudi crown, prince biden has said that the trip wont immediately impact gas prices in the us. She the impact of this visit. I suspect you wont see that for another. A couple of America Needs a saudi oil. This is in light of the ukraine, russia conference, not only do they want oil from saudi arabia, but at the same time they want to buy that oil at a cheaper price. Now on his arrival, joe bidens, welcome was his foul contrast to the welcome of the previous american president , donald trump, when he visited saudi back in 2017. What if i hadnt got was a 1st pump from the crown prince before being ushered into a room for meeting with the saudi king salmon at a press conference afterwards. Biden said that the 2 had disgust saudi defensive needs and wants to the normalization of ties. With his role, a journalist asked the american president whether or not saudi was still a pariah state to which the president chose not to answer, but there was a lot of laughter from the saudis prison. This of course, refers back to commented, died, and made when he was on the campaign trail. I with thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Now the americans voice seen themselves as the policeman of the world as the bastion of human rights. And joe biden himself has said that when he would consider which will leaders to deal with what would be of paramount for him was democracy and respect for human rights. At the country head, he seems to forgotten all this. He now, prior to his visit to saudi arabia, the u. S. The security adviser said that they were aiming for they to be no vacuum in the middle east for russia and china to take over. At the same time, of course, a lot of the concern of bidens visit has been creating an axis against iran, and particularly palestinian leaders and the palestinians street were aware of this with a criticism that prior to going to saudi arabia biden wasnt israel. And in the palestinian areas for 3 days that he found only 3 is to visit the palestinian city of bethlehem and meet with the palestinian president mahmoud abbas. So a lot of the focus of the visit here in israel, prior to going to saudi arabia 40 american president , was consolidating this axis against iran. And no doubt, hes going to focus on this during his trip in saudi arabia as well. Policy a r t to we sent him, retired usaa forth, Lieutenant Colonel tarren trout kosky thinks that opec no longer has the sway it wants to. It is sunny. Ravia is not the Global Supplier that it once was. And there are many competing sources of energy and even with saudi arabia used to be they dominated opec and they dont anymore. I mean, opec doesnt, doesnt have the sway that it used to have. So this idea that, you know, you go, you want to, well, you go to saudi arabia, well, its, its a global, fungible commodity. And so anything that they do, even minor increases even accepting lower prices, which i dont think theyll do. Even that will not make a fundamental difference, certainly in the american oil prices or, or in global oil availability. I think if you look at the numbers, you know, i think by noon just blowing smoke, i dont think he has looked at the numbers. The numbers arent, arent in the United States favor or the western side favor. In terms of seeing this, are you ready . I can solve it oil crisis. It cannot, it does not have the capacity to do that. Meanwhile, the Biden Administration is facing accusations of double standards elsewhere in the middle east. Are human rights activists has slammed wides house funds to set up a new International Committee to investigate abuses in yemen, ostensibly at the hands of saudi arabia. He believes the proposed body is a Flawed Initiative from the start. They are working on a very, very bad mechanism that can replace that ends. First of all, the starting point is that the mandate is weak and 2nd, it is not independent at all. According to report, the Us State Department is considering including representatives from yelmans president ial Leadership Council in the new committee. The group, however, does have close ties with saudi arabia who itself has been the focus of investigations over the war in yemen. It comes as a u. S. Congressional watchdog released a report last month stating the u. S. Has not fully investigated its own role in purpose and perpetuating human rights abuses in the country. Probes have also revealed to the Saudi Bombing Campaign in the country and the ledger war crimes were conducted with us weapons. In january this year, american western a was reportedly used in their strike in yemen, killing at least 80 people are we. It is among american biggest customers when it comes to sales. And now washington is said to be discussing, lifting a ban on the export of offensive weapons to saudi arabia. If progress is made in ending yemen war no agreement though has been reached so far. You many journalists, nasa b says the new Investigative Committee will be independent. The United States is coming to form or to create a committee what this committee would be doing. They say that they would, there will be, be billed from the president ial council. This president , the residual council, was made by saudi decisions. It is not independent, it is not neutral at all. So they are saying that we want somebody to, to, to whitewash the crimes not to investigate, to why it was that, that grimes, this would be if it happens, if this committee is created, it would be, i think, at this sentence, for the human rights in yemen, and maybe in the region now that the u. K. Military has resumed a joint Training Program in the former british colony of kenya. Come on, does have once again admitted theyve been deploy White Phosphorus in drills across the area, claiming the all legal purposes behind this locals are apparently concerned by the substances health impacts. Despite u. K attempts to whitewash the consequences. Ortiz Donnell Court explains great. Britains once again, conducting military exercises in its former colony of kenya, the 2 countries just signed an agreement for closer military co operation. And british troops are cleaning up after the latest drills to make sure the locals dont get hurt. The can you Defense Force in the u. K. Army come together to conduct a range sweep of the unexploded ordnance on the kenyan training areas that we use here. And to educate the people that live here on the dangers of that unexploded ordnance and to educate them so that they dont pick it up. They dont play with it, and they dont cause a danger for themselves. So everything should be fine, right . Not exactly. The queen subjects have a long history of breaking the rules and violating peoples rights in the region. For example, their use of White Phosphorus which International Law prohibits when used against military targets near civilians. International humanitarian law allows the use of White Phosphorus for certain methods for certain uses, and thats what we use it for. So we use it to create illumination at night, so we can fight to night. It also produces smoke, which provides a smokescreen for us to be able to fight. Sure, the brits technically arent breaking any roles by using it for smoke screens and light shows. But that doesnt mean People Living near their playground of war are happy about it. Im. I yo, guy, most of us, especially the elderly and children know nothing about the White Phosphorus. That is why the British Army Training unit will keep on using the substance and that no one has ever valencia to teach us about it. We are in great danger. E o e. Okay, to suffolk, went to maria close to the training grounds. Were not say im really scared because no one is listening to us by white fuss for should not be used here. Told otherwise were going to die. Now i dont know that i was on the wireless versus very dangerous, but the british army will always put on lives in danger because no one will question him. They think they are above the law were musically since last year. British soldiers even started a raging forest fire in the area to this day, theyve gone unpunished and londons not entirely admitting blame accidents do happen. Its not great, and were really sorry, and we really wish it hadnt happened. Were doing everything we can to mitigate their circumstances. And put in place measures to ensure it never happens again, thats not even to mention the canyon women who are allegedly raped and even killed by british soldiers. Despite the many complaints kenya and the u. K. Failed to take effective measures to investigate such claims to bring the alleged perpetrators to justice, ensure adequate reparations for the victims and prevent further attacks. Who knows if justice will ever be served for these crimes, seeing as its unlikely any one will hold them accountable . One thing looks pretty clear though things would be better if the british army left altogether the russian m. O. D has confirmed, its carried out a strike on thursday on the central ukrainian city of denisa. The Ministry Says a Ukrainian Military building was targeted by a High Precision missiles while commanders were holding a meeting with foreign weapons suppliers. Here father says that moscow didnt hit any military targets, but instead had several other buildings in the city. Killing 23 people including 3 children. Meanwhile, the relentless shelling of done yet sc city continues just on friday. Local authorities accuse ukraine of firing 9 shells into the city showing has become something of a norm in cities close to the front line. Our teeth, rod goes dia visited one such town recently taken by russian at forces. Ah, for about a week now, the town of bella, god of cut has been a frontier community. It is mangled, severely, mangled by the endless. In the incessant shelling and the tags, they have also been several close quarters battles as the cranium. Ukrainian troops have attempted to stem the village out of the wooded areas that rise above it in the hills above it. The community is remarkable for one reason. A lot of civilians still left here, but reaching them is even of itself a challenge. The ground, the very air bela got of cur, reverberate with war. In the shadow of a 2 story apartment building, sat around a rusty makeshift stove, we found a group of civilians full pensioners. And the 15 year old boy, i always hear a few steps from the bomb shelter. It was big as the wookey. What they did was it was at the sound of these expressions that we can hear. Now weve been hearing them for 4 months. It way with me by is arent you afraid i will use to now its difficult to get easter but with accepting this reality, sitting on this dorothy weekly separately, what they have gone through has left its mark. Would of them a jittery on the edge and sold weary, but make no mistake. The shelves and blasts are only part of the reason that treatment at the hands of ukrainian soldiers made it so much worse. As you had described as apparatus and they called themselves to punishes. I yeah, the ones cause i did they say to you go with yes to us now it protects us. Only name you said that the last 2 months have been torture you. They would walk around and loot, they would smash sharp nickel foods and drinks and then right on the walls with swear waves where it now the russians wouldnt get them want your as to be wild, up close to where does all this hate come from . What do you mean where from . Oh, great, so that propaganda are brainwashed, you know all, but the majority here on your snow across the dog bass civilians, it liberated territories. Tell the same story that ukrainian soldiers despise them, viewed them as pro russian, not anywhere near nationalistic love. They hated them, but that went food, ways through fedex was that he also woke room. I am not as to was injured to the loan. When you, when i, when he calls me again but was you was 3 little it it would her as the year to year her viola get lots of them off. How do goes that younger . Couple home willis. Mother is not all cook or special at boston finish. Pleasure. Did you. And she to you here with that rule. Super cute eunice hunker then supposed to proceed with bella. God of co was the last major settlement to be liberated at the low gods peoples republic. It was symbolic by the entire region lost the key if that may explain why they have tried her race it from afar. That is after trying to fight it back up close. Both has gotten us volumetric from what all the new our machine gunners put there at sac 1st. When youre the crunch or he only had one ammunition bells, was he fired . Well, covering his retreat, i spotted 2 of them here. I had one and his partner directs him over here on april 1st. This is where he applied 1st aids. You can see the bandages scattered round about the welcome lease was ukraines last attempt at storming bela got of her with infantry. The ukrainian troops who died here were left behind by the survivors. This has become something of a trademark of Ukrainian Forces, leaving behind their dead men, writing them off as missing in action. His family will still have hope and here he is abandoned by his compatriots. We will know his school side it was or like, if im on you are both only what they then fired back with this. Have a look at this launcher with the machine gunner got away with a concussion. I shanika wood. I knew my feeling is that there were on something initially they were walking out in the open as if they were high on drugs. Weve heard the same story before, and mario, both nationalists who could fight without eating or drinking or sleeping for days, who most likely had the access to amphetamines and stimulants. Much like here. But they didnt help around bella, god of cur, houses and basements. Those that werent destroyed are strewn with the belongings of ukrainian soldiers moll. They couldnt hold the settlement to fight her back. He seemed determined now to erase it entirely north as his other than the blue one. You shouldnt stay here long anymore when the shelling would resume their mortar seam is very good and dont forget your helmet. Or id get d o. R g for bella gorenca la guns, peoples republic. Meanwhile, the father of a moroccan fight, so he fought alongside Ukrainian Forces and plead guilty to a number of charges in a de nits court. Has written a letter to the russian president asking him to save his son from the death sentence. My son is 21 years old in 2019. He went to ukraine solely to continue studying. In 2021 due to his yar age, he was fraudulently recruited into ukraine in army on a contract basis. We didnt even know that abraham had been transferred to the front line in his, in ukraine since we had completely lost contact with him at the end of march. This year, the life of our family has turned into a nightmare because of our sons thoughtless actions. Hebrew, him sir doone surrendered to russian underneath forces near mar, you pull alongside to britains. Theyve been found guilty on multiple charges and sentenced to death by a court in the done yes. Republic which has its own separate legal system. We heard from the moroccan fights himself, said mama baba, what a t heavy i met a she didnt did here t who she had them again, looking material for 3 defendants said they were not guilty of the mercenaries in an armed conflict. London demands it. Citizens be treated as prisoners of war under the geneva convention. Now you can read more about foreign fighters who joined you printing forces over on r t dot com i was fighting in the dumbass continues. The us house of representatives has passed a National Defense bill increases. Immunity helped ukraine book significantly, coats humanitarian. A tough dentist on the bill will potentially set a new record for the countrys military budget and nearly 840000000000. 00. Now thats 37000000000. 00 more than President Biden had even requested. And the figure includes another 1000000000 allocated to ukraine. However, the new build bonds, the defense department, from funding any transport of humanitarian aid to cobble. And despite some Democratic Party members in congress, stressing the importance of help for afghanistan canister on his face in one of the most terrific humanitarian crisis on the planet. We should be doing everything in our power to deliver him an italian assistance to the african people. Not an additional limit, indeed we can supply. Now the move comes despite the International Rescue committee repeatedly warning that the current humanitarian crisis enough gun is done, could result in even more death than the recent 2 decades of war in the country. Us lawmakers on both sides of the political divide have also been voicing concern the military spending has got out of control. Well, history, an International Relations analyst, or my work keen believes that washingtons policies towards afghanistan are plunging the country into anarchy. I believe that the United States is deliberately doing this because it wants to get this done in order on the
