00:00You know, I think that the leader of the HDS would be helpful to explain the following.
00:05And because without the direct help of the military in Bundeswehr,
00:11fighting these rockets are not possible,
00:15hit them by any Russian object,
00:19critical importance of transport and infrastructure,
00:22as you probably noticed,
00:24MERS, I'm sure, about the Kremlin,
00:29so that all this will be considered as direct participation in the FROG
00:34on the side of the Kyiv regime
00:36with all the consequences for Germany.
00:39This is my video update on this Saturday afternoon, April the 19th,
00:48coming to you from Nicosia Cyprus.
00:53Let's talk about some news.
01:00And let's start things off with Victor Orban.
01:06And he was giving an interview yesterday,
01:10and he said some pretty amazing things.
01:17Some very interesting truth bombs dropped by Victor Orban.
01:24He said that the West was in a proxy war with Russia,
01:34and the West, they lost.
01:39They gave everything to Ukraine, and they still lost this war to Russia.
01:47And he also said that the European Union,
01:51they cannot admit that they have lost the war to Russia,
01:56because losing a war is a very big deal,
02:00according to the Hungarian Prime Minister.
02:04And then he also said that U.S. President Trump is way ahead of the Europeans.
02:13He is getting out of Project Ukraine,
02:17and he is saving the United States from this defeat.
02:23Wow.
02:27Very, very interesting things said by Victor Orban in an interview with OT YouTube channel published on Thursday.
02:37Orban said the whole Western world has thrown its weight behind Ukraine in its conflict with Russia,
02:44which he described as a proxy war.
02:49According to the Hungarian Prime Minister, the West has lost,
02:53but European leaders are hesitant to admit failure.
02:57He argued that this outcome will have a big impact on the entire West,
03:02as losing a war is a serious thing.
03:06Orban went on to say that European leaders are offering Ukraine to continue the war
03:12and in return receive European Union membership.
03:16He argued that this would be problematic as Ukraine is no longer sovereign and cannot support itself.
03:22Regarding the U.S., the Hungarian Prime Minister said Washington is in a better position,
03:27thanks to President Donald Trump's approach,
03:31having broken with the Ukraine policies pursued by his predecessor, Joe Biden.
03:38According to Orban, Trump, and I quote,
03:42saved the U.S. from a serious defeat.
03:49Trump saved the U.S. from a serious defeat.
03:55Okay.
03:56Very important statements from Orban.
03:59Orban.
04:00He also posted on X.
04:02Orban.
04:03He posted this.
04:04Rushing Ukraine into the EU.
04:06That's Brussels' plan, not ours.
04:09They want to admit a country with no clear borders, no functioning economy, no sovereignty,
04:16and they expect EU taxpayers to fund a million-strong army for decades.
04:21This is not peace.
04:22It's a blank check for endless war.
04:28So we're getting reports that Denmark is about to send its military into Ukraine
04:38or has actually sent its military into Ukraine.
04:43It's hard to get a feel for what exactly has gone down in Denmark.
04:53What is going on in Denmark?
04:56Have they sent their military to Ukraine?
04:59Are they about to send their military to Ukraine?
05:02Not quite sure, but we are getting a lot of reports which are confirming that Danish soldiers
05:12will be sent to Ukraine in order to train, to train in Ukraine.
05:17Russia is calling these soldiers legitimate targets.
05:22The Danish armed forces plan to send Danish soldiers to courses in Ukraine,
05:29but Russia warns against drawing Denmark deeper into the conflict.
05:33Something tells me that Denmark has already dispatched its soldiers to Ukraine under the pretext that they're going there to train.
05:49They're going there to train.
05:51That is what Denmark is saying.
05:53Now, remember that the three countries, the three confirmed countries in the coalition of the willing are the UK, France and Denmark.
06:08You also have the Baltic countries, but the three the three original countries that when when Stammer announced his coalition of the willing, the three countries that said we're in was, of course, the the UK.
06:24Of course, France and Denmark said we are in.
06:27We are part of the coalition of the willing.
06:29And then you had the three Baltic countries, of course, the three Baltic countries, they said they'll be part of the coalition of the willing and they're going to send their military to Ukraine.
06:39So three Baltic countries means you'll have about about five military officials go to Ukraine from the Baltic countries.
06:47But Denmark, Denmark, Denmark is is looking like it's the first country or will become the first country to send its military into Ukraine.
06:59And what is Russia's reaction?
07:02They are legitimate targets.
07:04So the big news from yesterday was the Bloomberg.
07:14The reports that they have they have spoken to sources who have told them the the framework, the contours of the proposal that Rubio presented to allies in France.
07:37The proposal for.
07:40The proposal for.
07:41Peace in Ukraine, if you want to call it that, let's say a ceasefire in Ukraine, I think is probably a more accurate description as to what the U.S. presented to to the allies in France, to Germany, to France and to the UK.
08:04Ukraine was also at that meeting.
08:05Ukraine was also at that meeting.
08:06I talked about this in my video update yesterday.
08:09And according to Bloomberg and you have to always be very, very careful with Bloomberg reporting.
08:18I've been burned many times reporting on stories coming out of Bloomberg, which have which were later proven to be completely false and fake news.
08:33But we are getting other outlets which are reporting similar things like the Wall Street Journal and the New York Post.
08:40But Bloomberg broke the news first.
08:43According to their sources, they've seen some of the the proposal that Rubio presented.
08:49And and and I have to say that reading the Bloomberg article, my conclusion is that it doesn't really tell us much.
09:00It really does not get get into many details.
09:03Bloomberg claims that that their sources, this is what they had.
09:07They didn't really have much detail as to what was presented, but they have the the framework, the architecture as to what was presented.
09:16And it does appear like we're we're looking at some sort of of a proposal that's for Project Ukraine.
09:28That's a mix, a hybrid between Istanbul plus June 2024 and and the Kellogg ceasefire plan.
09:39That that's my conclusion from what I read from Bloomberg and I have to always say this, it's coming from Bloomberg.
09:51So so we have to we have to take these these reports with a huge a huge grain of salt.
10:04Anyway, let me let me let me talk about the the proposal, according to Bloomberg, that was presented to the allies.
10:13It talks about a freeze on the front lines.
10:18It talks about Ukraine and the Europeans.
10:23Pushing for security guarantees.
10:26It talks about.
10:29About sanctions relief.
10:32And it also talks about the four territories.
10:39Going to Moscow.
10:42The four territories controlled by Moscow.
10:45And and then Bloomberg posted a follow up story, which says that the U.S. in this proposal, the U.S.
10:54is also ready to recognize Crimea as part of the Russian Federation, officially recognize Crimea as part of the Russian Federation.
11:04The article also says that the Europeans will not be forced to recognize the four territories as part of Russia.
11:15Russia. And of course, Ukraine's aspirations.
11:17And of course, Ukraine's aspirations.
11:19That's the words that Bloomberg uses. Ukraine's aspirations to enter.
11:23NATO will be put on hold or will or will be stopped.
11:29It doesn't get into many details.
11:33And I think the most important detail that.
11:37That it doesn't reveal.
11:41Is with the territories, which is why I say it's it's a mix between.
11:49Istanbul plus and Kellogg's plan, because Kellogg's plan was about a freeze.
11:55We're going to get to a ceasefire or we're going to push for a ceasefire.
11:59And that means a freeze on the front lines.
12:02That's what Kellogg's plan was was pushing for.
12:06And it was also pushing for some sort of security guarantees.
12:12Now, the Istanbul plus plan, it's it's rooted in in Ukraine.
12:18Of course, Ukraine, not entering NATO, but one of the most important parts of Istanbul plus was the the four territories in their entirety.
12:29As being part of the Russian Federation, and that would mean that any Ukraine military or Ukraine presence.
12:37In the four territories, Lugansk, Donetsk, Zaporozhye and Kherson, they would have to leave.
12:49The Bloomberg article does not get into any specifics as to what they mean by the four territories being controlled by Moscow.
13:02So you don't really know if if the proposal presented to the the Europeans and to Ukraine by Rubio said that we're going to have a freeze on the front lines, which I think Russia is not going to accept right away.
13:17But anyway, we'll see.
13:18They're saying we're going to have a freeze.
13:21We're going to call the ceasefire freeze everything.
13:25And then we recognize that Moscow controls the four territories.
13:29What what it doesn't say is, does Moscow control in this proposal the four territories in their entirety?
13:41Will Ukraine have to leave those four territories?
13:46Or does Russia control those four territories as to where they are right now if you freeze the fighting?
13:56In other words, the Ukraine military will be will have a presence in in Zaporozhye, Kherson and Donetsk because Lugansk has pretty much fallen under the full control of Russia.
14:11So you're looking primarily you're looking at the three oblasts where you do have a Ukraine military presence.
14:18Will they be allowed to stay or will they be told to leave?
14:21And then the full oblast is recognized as part of the Russian Federation.
14:28It doesn't say the proposal does not say.
14:32And I think that's kind of the most important part or one of the most important parts.
14:37I also don't like how the how the Bloomberg article says that Ukraine's NATO aspirations uses the words aspiration.
14:47It's aspiration aspiration to enter NATO will will be put on hold or will be stopped.
14:54I don't know.
14:55I just didn't like the the wording.
14:57It makes it it makes it feel as if.
15:00Sometime in the future.
15:03Those aspirations could be.
15:06Could be changed right to to reenter to to enter NATO.
15:12So.
15:13I don't know.
15:15Um.
15:16What else did.
15:17Did this article say to this report.
15:22Say.
15:23Sanctions relief.
15:26Russia never.
15:27Never really pressed for sanctions relief.
15:31That wasn't a condition that Russia ever ever talked about in in their terms.
15:39So.
15:42The sanctions relief.
15:44I don't think really carries much much significance as far as being some sort of a carrot for for Russia.
15:52But that's that's the proposal that allegedly Rubio put on the table.
16:00And this is allegedly the proposal that he also told laugh it off about when he called laugh it off after he had the meeting in Paris.
16:10Now, the the most important part of the Bloomberg article.
16:15Is that they admit.
16:18That this settlement.
16:21Will not be.
16:23Will not be a lasting piece.
16:25It will not be a definitive settlement.
16:27I think is the the words that they used according to their source.
16:32Let me read you.
16:33What Bloomberg says.
16:35One of the officials said the plans which need to be further discussed with Kiev wouldn't amount to a definitive settlement.
16:45And that European allies wouldn't recognize the occupied territories as Russian.
16:50The officials stressed that talks would be moot if the Kremlin didn't agree to stop the fighting.
16:57And that providing Ukraine with security guarantees to ensure that any deal holds up was essential.
17:03That's the other thing.
17:04The security guarantees.
17:05It's it's very unclear if if when Bloomberg is mentioning security guarantees, if they were actually part of the proposal or if this was something that the Europeans.
17:17Brought up as Rubio Rubio would call Kellogg as as they presented this proposal that the Europeans said, can you put in this proposal security guarantees?
17:27That would mean if there are security guarantees put into the proposal, then that would open the door for the coalition of the willing to to enter Ukraine.
17:38For Stalmer and for Macron to actually say that now they have the the green light to send troops into Ukraine to to send troops to secure the Black Sea and to try and and get to Odessa.
17:56So the article doesn't clear that up either.
18:03But it says this is not according to the source, this is not a definitive settlement, which which goes against everything that Russia has been saying when it comes to to a peace in Ukraine.
18:16Russia has said that they want to address the root causes and they want a definitive settlement to the problem in Ukraine, not only Ukraine to the entire European security architecture.
18:31They want to solve this whole thing.
18:33They want to solve this whole thing.
18:34They want a long term solution, a lasting long term solution.
18:38The Wall Street Journal is reporting that in this proposal, the U.S. also put out a framework, presented a framework to to the Europeans as to how they would monitor this this freeze or this ceasefire.
18:58Though it didn't get into any specifics.
19:01We have no specifics, really.
19:02There's no specifics in in any of this reporting.
19:05So do I believe this reporting?
19:08Do you believe this reporting?
19:10I imagine there's some truth to to what Bloomberg and the Wall Street Journal is is putting out there.
19:19I imagine there is some some truth to it.
19:24But you always have to remember that you're talking about about sources that are European sources.
19:31So you're probably talking about European diplomats who have who have seen this proposal or were at the meeting, which did not go well for the Europeans.
19:41So you've got to imagine that the Europeans are trying to paint the best picture they can with regards to the negotiations.
19:49And you probably have some Ukrainian sources in there as well that that Bloomberg is drawing from.
19:55And they're going to try to to present a positive spin on all of this.
20:04So there's probably some truth, but there's a lot that we just don't know.
20:08And I imagine if I were to take a guess, I imagine that that that that the truth of what was presented to the Europeans was much more in favor of of Istanbul plus plus June 2024 and and much more in favor of Whitcoff's diplomacy rather than the Kellogg ceasefire plan.
20:30That would be my guess.
20:33But we'll find out because Rubio and Trump, they said that in the next couple of days or couple of weeks, they're going to want answers from Ukraine and Russia as to whether they're in agreement with this proposal.
20:50And I would call this a ceasefire proposal because it's not a solution to to the fighting.
20:59Its main goal is to get a ceasefire and to to freeze, to freeze the conflict.
21:07That does look like that is the goal, as Trump says, to stop the killing, not to solve the problem in Ukraine, but to but to stop it, to freeze it.
21:19It does have a Minsk three type of vibe, I have to say, but I just I just don't trust Bloomberg, man.
21:31I don't trust Bloomberg's reporting.
21:33I don't trust the Wall Street Journal.
21:35I don't trust the New York Post.
21:37And they're all weighing in on on this proposal.
21:41But who knows?
21:42We'll find out in the next couple of days.
21:46I think Russia is going to have a hard time agreeing to something like this.
21:50If if the four territories in their entirety are to be given to to Russia in this proposal, then I think Ukraine is going to have an impossible time agreeing to this.
22:03So that's the situation there.
22:08And we also had yesterday an announcement that a minerals deal memorandum has been signed.
22:17A letter of intent, a memorandum.
22:20It was actually published, this memorandum.
22:23It's a one page document.
22:25It says nothing.
22:27It just says nothing.
22:28It says that pretty much the United States and Ukraine agree to to sign a minerals deal.
22:34Doesn't get into any specifics about the deal at all.
22:38And they're going to sign this deal next week in the United States.
22:43It's not going to be Alinsky.
22:44It's going to be my precious Schmeagel.
22:47He is going to travel to the United States and he's going to sign this minerals deal next Thursday with Scott Bessent.
22:58That's that's the letter of intent.
23:00That's the memorandum that was signed.
23:03It gets it.
23:04It gets into no detail.
23:05No specifics.
23:08Which probably means that we're looking at pretty much the same memorandum, the same minerals deal that that was presented a couple of months ago to Alinsky.
23:24And that led to to the huge row in the the White House.
23:29The minerals deal that that Ukraine has been trying to to avoid signing because it would mean that Alinsky is signing away all the resources of Ukraine to the United States in perpetuity.
23:45Now, the amount that Ukraine has to hand over to the United States in back pay has been dropped from 300 billion to 100 billion.
23:55So what the main point of the memorandum is once again, the United States controlling Ukraine's resources forever.
24:04That's the main point of the of the memorandum, but if Alinsky is desperate, which I imagine he has to be, then he might sign this thing.
24:20The guy is desperate, very desperate, and he doesn't really have any other options left other than to sign the memorandum and hope that this will somehow commit the United States to Ukraine.
24:36It's not going to provide Ukraine security guarantees, at least the memorandum that we know of does not say that they're going to give Ukraine security guarantees, the United States.
24:45But if you're Alinsky and you have no more options left, you understand that the Europeans, they're not going to be able to help you and that Trump is going to be walking away from project Ukraine.
24:56This is your last chance.
24:58You don't have many other options left other than to sign this deal.
25:04And if you're Ukraine, you're probably saying, you know what, if you're Alinsky, you're probably saying, you know what, let me sign this thing.
25:13Maybe I can pull the United States into the conflict somehow.
25:18Maybe I can buy some time.
25:23Worst case scenario, a couple of months or a couple of years down the line, you know, we're Ukraine, we're the most corrupt country in Europe, in the world.
25:35We don't have to honor this, this deal anyway, that's that we may sign next week in, in DC.
25:44So I would not be surprised if Schmeigel does end up going to DC, he will go to DC and he does sign this thing.
25:53And then, of course, you can always talk about the legitimacy of, of an Alinsky government signing any deal.
25:59Is the Alinsky government even legitimate?
26:02You can make that argument as well.
26:05So this is the last card that, that Alinsky can play the last hope.
26:14I wouldn't even, I wouldn't even say it's a card that he's playing.
26:17This is his last chance, his last hope for him to somehow figure out a way to, to either get the U.S. involved or to buy him enough time so he can figure out an exit or something like that.
26:33So Trump made some interesting statements yesterday as he was speaking to the media.
26:42Trump, he expressed his frustration with Project Ukraine.
26:47And he said that, that he's ready to walk away.
26:51He is absolutely ready to walk away from Project Ukraine.
26:54Uh, both Rubio and Trump, we are getting reports that, uh, that they are saying in, in meetings that they have many other foreign policy, uh, issues to deal with.
27:06And, uh, they cannot remain, uh, committed to Project Ukraine indefinitely.
27:12They need to either get some sort of a deal or to drop it and, uh, move on.
27:18And, uh, Trump said as much yesterday as he was talking to the media.
27:23He said, and I quote, if for some reason, one of the two parties makes it very difficult.
27:28We're just going to say you're foolish.
27:30You're fools.
27:31You're horrible people.
27:32Trump said, adding, we're going to just take a pass, but hopefully we won't have to do that.
27:38And he's talking about the proposal that, uh, that has been given to, to the Europeans, to Ukraine and has been, uh, sent to Russia.
27:49If they can't get an agreement on this proposal, whatever this proposal is, then Trump is saying we're, we're out.
27:58We're out of this thing and we're moving on.
28:01Axios put an article out with the title, Trump ranted to AIDS about washing his hands of Russia, Ukraine.
28:11And in the article, Axios says two European diplomats confirmed Rubio said Trump was losing his patience and might withdraw from the process.
28:21If a deal wasn't reached soon, the deal wasn't reached soon.
28:26That's what Axios is saying.
28:29Again, it goes back to what, uh, or bond said in his interview, uh, or bond said that Trump saved the U S from a serious defeat.
28:40That's one way of putting it or bond and or bond.
28:43He's, he's an ally of Trump.
28:45He's a friend of, uh, of Trump.
28:47And, uh, he's, he's saying it in a very, very U S Trump friendly way that Trump is saving the United States from a defeat.
29:05But the U S even though they were, they were very much running this conflict, running this war, as we now know from the New York times reporting, they have the, the ability to the luxury.
29:23I don't know how you would phrase it to, to walk away.
29:26They can do this as much as they were running this conflict from Germany, providing the weapons, providing the money,
29:34providing the surveillance, the targeting everything, the Intel, the CIA, all the, all the, all the facilities.
29:43And then the secret facilities and secret bases and everything that was in Ukraine over, not over three years, but over 10 years, maybe even going back further.
29:52The U S has the, the ability to, to walk away from this thing, the Europeans, not so much.
30:02And if the U S beats the Europeans to walking away from this thing, which they have, they've beat the Europeans to the punch.
30:09And they're walking out of project Ukraine.
30:11That's what the Orban is saying, the United States, they, they beat us to this.
30:15The Europeans could have said we're out of this, but nope.
30:18The Europeans doubled down and tripled down.
30:20Now they want more escalation.
30:21Now they're talking about troops in Ukraine.
30:23Now we've got Denmark, who's talking about sending military to Ukraine, or maybe they already have military in Ukraine.
30:29Anyway, the Europeans are, are getting more, uh, more dug in when it comes to, to the conflict in Ukraine, the conflict with Russia.
30:38The U S is, it's pulling out, man.
30:45And Europe's going to be stuck with this thing.
30:51So, uh, Axios, Axios also said that Ukraine swiftly agreed to Trump's plan for a 30 day ceasefire.
31:00But Russia has slow walked that proposal and argued they are winning on the battlefield and thus have a number of conditions for any peace agreements.
31:10You know, uh, Bloomberg, they said the same thing.
31:14Axios is, is talking about this.
31:16Bloomberg said the same thing.
31:17Uh, the wall street journal said the same thing.
31:20The New York post said the same thing when they're talking about, uh, Rubio and Trump and the project Ukraine there, they're running with the narrative that Ukraine agreed to a ceasefire.
31:34And it's Russia that did not agree to a ceasefire, which is wrong, which is fake news.
31:47The reality of the situation is that, that Ukraine and the Europeans, they were pushing for an unconditional ceasefire.
32:00That's what they wanted, which doesn't make any sense.
32:04An unconditional ceasefire.
32:05That's what they were pushing for.
32:07And they wanted Russia to agree to an unconditional ceasefire.
32:11Why would any military that's winning in all of history?
32:15Why, why would, why would anyone agree to an unconditional ceasefire?
32:19Has it ever happened in all of history that the winning military agrees to an unconditional ceasefire?
32:24No, I don't even think there's such a thing.
32:26Is there even such a thing as an unconditional ceasefire?
32:28Doesn't make any sense, but that's what they were pushing for.
32:31The reality is that Russia absolutely agreed to a 30 day energy ceasefire, which they honored and Ukraine did not.
32:41And that Russia also agreed to a Black Sea ceasefire, which they would have liked to have honored, but it was the Europeans that blocked the lifting of sanctions on the Russian agricultural bank.
32:58So that ceasefire couldn't even begin because the Europeans completely blocked it.
33:06That's the reality of, of this whole ceasefire thing.
33:08It's not the collective West media is, is dumbing it down in favor of Ukraine.
33:15And they're making it seem as if Russia would not agree to, to a ceasefire.
33:21So they're the ones to blame.
33:23You see where they're taking this?
33:25Where the truth of the matter is that, that what the Europeans and Ukraine were asking for was ridiculous.
33:32And what the Russians agreed to was exactly what Trump proposed to them.
33:38And that's what they honored, which was the energy ceasefire and the Black Sea ceasefire.
33:43But it was the Europeans and Ukraine that did not honor those ceasefires.
33:47That's the truth of it.
33:49Anyway, I thought I would mention that.
33:51How about we hear from Medvedev on all of this stuff?
33:55Here is what Dimitri Medvedev posted.
33:58American officials have said that if there is no progress on the Ukrainian case, the United States will wash its hands of it wisely.
34:08And the EU should do the same.
34:10Then Russia will figure it out faster.
34:14The New York Post is saying that Ukraine, according to their sources, after seeing this proposal, they're 90% ready to agree to, to Rubio, to the Rubio Trump proposal.
34:28They're 90% ready.
34:30Now it's up to Russia, according to Ukrainian officials.
34:35They're going to try to blame this on Russia.
34:39You know, you know what Trump is going to do?
34:41Trump is going to walk away from this thing.
34:44He's going to wash his hands of this thing.
34:46And and he's covering all his bases.
34:49Right.
34:50He's going to he's going to try to get a minerals deal so he can come back and say, I got a minerals deal.
34:54You see, I'm getting us our money back, even though there's probably no money to get.
34:58But he can come out and say that he's he's going to say, look, I presented a proposal for a ceasefire.
35:05Russia did not accept it.
35:07Ukraine did not accept it or Ukraine accepted it and Russia did not accept it or or or Russia accepted it.
35:14Ukraine did not accept it.
35:15Ukraine accepted it.
35:16Russia did not accept.
35:17Doesn't matter.
35:18Doesn't matter.
35:19He's covering all his bases, man.
35:21He's covering all his bases and he's going to say we're out of this.
35:24And if they both accept it, then OK, he gets a temporary freeze, which is what's from from reading the reports on this proposal.
35:33That's what we're talking about.
35:35Some sort of a freeze.
35:38Which the Europeans don't recognize, which Ukraine is not going to recognize.
35:43And Trump can can serve the remainder of his three, four years without having Ukraine as a headache.
35:52And then the next administration, I guess, could deal with it somewhere down the line.
35:58So that's that's the New York Post.
36:02And what else?
36:04What else?
36:05How are we doing on time?
36:06Yeah, let's wrap this thing up.
36:09There's so much news today, but we got to wrap this thing up.
36:12We are getting reports starting with The New York Times and from all kinds of media outlets, including in the Middle East, which are confirming that the United States is leaving Syria.
36:24The U.S. military is starting to withdraw from Syria.
36:27Three bases.
36:29We've seen a withdrawal of U.S. forces from three bases.
36:32The reports are that 600 soldiers are now leaving Syria from a total of of two or three thousand, maybe four thousand.
36:44No one really knows the exact number, to be quite honest.
36:47But 600 soldiers are the reports that are now on their way out of Syria.
36:53Syria.
36:54I talked about this in a video a couple of days ago, how the U.S. is going to leave Syria in the next two months.
37:02Looks like it's happening, which is very important news.
37:06What else?
37:07I can't really talk about this story because the last time I I mentioned the coup, my channel got banned for a week.
37:15So I'm not even going to I'm not even going to talk about it because I'll be taken down for a week.
37:22But on the on the government, on the White House website, the U.S. White House government website, they are now saying that the coup originated in China and you know which lab.
37:36And and yes, it's it's now coming from the White House.
37:40And I think there is a geopolitical motive to all of this, obviously, because now you have the tensions with China.
37:46So this further demonizes China, even if it's true, true or not true, whatever.
37:52I'm not going to weigh in on this because I don't want to be banned for for another week on YouTube.
37:59So this is a news topic that I guess I'm prohibited from really talking about.
38:07But I think everyone understands what I mean when I say that the coup on the White House website is now saying that it originated in China.
38:20All right. What else? What else?
38:24And we'll get to our clown world big story in Moldova.
38:29It's Easter Easter weekend.
38:32Tomorrow is Easter Sunday.
38:34And in the Orthodox faith, the churches, the bishops, church representatives, they go to to Jerusalem and they take part in a ritual where they're given the holy fire, the holy flame.
38:52And they take that that flame back to back to their country.
38:57And then when we have our service, which is at midnight, when we have the midnight mass, at least here in Cyprus and Greece, we have the midnight mass.
39:07Everyone actually can light a candle with that holy flame, that holy fire from Jerusalem.
39:14And so in Moldova, the bishop in Moldova, Bishop Marcel, he was going to get on a plane to travel to Jerusalem and the Moldovan authorities, they blocked him.
39:29They prevented him from traveling to Jerusalem.
39:32They took his passport.
39:34They would not give it back until his plane left.
39:36He was not on the plane.
39:37Then they gave the passport back.
39:39And then he tried again later on to get on another flight.
39:43And they blocked him again from traveling to Jerusalem.
39:47Moldova, what are you doing, man?
39:56Maya Sandu trying to stir up as much tension and trouble as she can with, well, with Russia.
40:05But, you know, I consider it as if she's trying to stir up trouble with Orthodox, with the Orthodox Church, the Orthodox believers.
40:19Bad stuff.
40:20Very bad stuff.
40:22Don't like it.
40:23Don't like it at all.
40:24The UN is investigating this, by the way.
40:26The UN said they're going to investigate what Sandu in Moldova is trying to do here, what they did.
40:33So that's coming out of Moldova.
40:39And let's do some clown world and we can wrap this video up.
40:47So much news today.
40:50So where should we begin?
40:54Spiritual terror.
40:59That's what they're labeling what happened to the bishop from Moldova.
41:08Spiritual terror.
41:10By not allowing him to fly to Jerusalem.
41:15Moldova really is ready to attend to the European Union, huh?
41:19Maya Sandu is aligning Moldovan values with EU values, right?
41:26She's aligning them really well by blocking the religious freedom of this bishop.
41:33Anyway, let's talk about Katy Perry.
41:38Katy Perry, the astronaut, who said that her 10-minute space ride is uniting the whole country.
41:49Okay.
41:50Okay.
41:53All right.
41:54Enough said there.
41:55I don't need to get into any details.
41:57Her 10-minute ride into space.
42:00Astronaut.
42:01Astronaut Katy Perry.
42:02She's a singer.
42:03And she's also an astronaut, everybody.
42:06It's uniting the whole United States.
42:09Yeah.
42:10I think the whole United States is united in the absurdity of it all.
42:15They're united as they're laughing at the whole thing.
42:19Jeff Bezos pays off to have a buddy like Jeff Bezos, huh?
42:25To have a friend that's worth $250 billion.
42:29You get to go to space.
42:30You get to take a ride to space and then call yourself an astronaut.
42:34Anyway, Alensky, he imposed sanctions against 20 Russian people.
42:41I believe 20, maybe 30.
42:43One of the entities or the people that he put sanctions on was a director of a cat theater,
42:51Kuklachev.
42:53I have no idea who this is, but from what I understand, this is a person who has a cat show or a cat theater.
43:01They've been sanctioned.
43:03I believe a belly dancer was also sanctioned by the green goblin.
43:08Okay.
43:10And Alensky is also now saying that China, he has proof that China is providing weapons to Russia
43:20and that they're actually, I believe he said they're actually making the weapons in Russia as well.
43:27Or they're manufacturing the weapons in China and they're delivering them to Russia or they're manufacturing.
43:32The Chinese are manufacturing the weapons in Russia and they're using them in the conflict.
43:36I forgot what he said.
43:37It's all kinds of nonsense coming from Alensky.
43:39China, of course, is denying this.
43:42They're saying that Alensky is talking nonsense.
43:44But Alensky actually came out in a statement and said that he's got the receipts.
43:52The SBU, he says, they have the information that the intelligence that China is making weapons for Russia in this conflict.
44:04Making friends, Alensky, making friends.
44:11Oh, man.
44:12You know, the guy that the two, the two Chinese guys that they, that they captured, well, the alleged Chinese soldiers that they captured.
44:20The one guy is, is Zhang Renbo.
44:24Not Rambo.
44:25Renbo.
44:26Not Rambo.
44:27Renbo.
44:28Not John Rambo.
44:29It's Zhang.
44:30Renbo.
44:33Oh, man.
44:36Renbo.
44:37Renbo.
