00:00be able to stop iran from enriching its i don't know i i did think so and i'm i'm getting more
00:09and more less confident about it they seem to be delaying and i think that's a shame but they i'm
00:15less confident now than i would have been a couple of months ago something happened to them but i am
00:23much less confident of a deal being made this is my video update on this wednesday afternoon june the
00:3311th coming to you from athens greece let's talk about some news and yesterday i mentioned that the
00:46eu has has gone ahead and put together the 18th sanctions package 18th sanctions package against
00:54russia they have put the package together it will now go for a vote to the eu council i believe the
01:03eu member states have to now approve the 18th sanctions package against russia and yesterday
01:10we had an official announcement of the 18th sanctions package from ursula von der leyen and kaya callis
01:23ursula and stunning and brave they announced the 18th punishing as political calls it the punishing
01:33sanctions package against russia and there was a lot of brain power in that room
01:40as ursula and kaya callis teamed up to announce how they are going to bring down the putin and ursula
01:52she posted on x europe is putting nordstrom one and two behind for good we also propose to lower the oil
02:04price cap from 60 to 45 dollars per barrel oil is one-third of russia russia's government revenues we
02:12need to cut this source we'll discuss how best to coordinate with partners at the g7 summit
02:21yeah so uh they wanted to get this sanctions package out before the uh the g7 summit i thought they were
02:29going to announce this on the 18th i thought the 18th maybe the 18th is when they're going to vote on
02:34this but i was thinking they're going to officially announce the sanctions package on the 18th of june
02:39because it's the 18th sanctions package but they announced it officially announced it yesterday
02:46maybe it goes for a vote to the member states on the 18th everything will be discussed and coordinated
02:53with the g7 the powerful great countries the great economies of the g7 germany the uk france japan canada
03:08the united states the powerful countries of the g7 coordinating with the european union to bring down
03:15the putin and uh and kaya callis saying that europe is putting north stream one and two behind for good
03:23how convenient we're not going to talk about north stream ever ever again ever ever ever let's not talk
03:32about it let's not deal with it let's not discuss the possibility of of uh of having it operate again
03:42perhaps so that we can get lower uh prices energy prices nope we are putting it behind us for good
03:50does that not tell you who was behind north stream the north stream sabotage that right there that right
03:58there tells you who sabotaged north stream it definitely was not russia or on the russian side it
04:07definitely was uh was on the collective west side of things gilligan gilligan and the skipper
04:18so uh 45 dollars per barrel from 60 because 60 worked out so well 60 worked out real well i believe the
04:26price of oil today at this moment it has come down uh a bit i believe it was at
04:33at 68 or 69 maybe 70 today but uh it was at 60 or at least in the imaginations of uh of the collective
04:45west of ursula and kaya callis they had a price uh cap of 60 and now they're going to bring it down to 45
04:5245 45 a barrel
04:58my sources in saudi arabia very close to mbs my sources they tell me that he called up ursula
05:08and he said absolutely go ahead opec is handing over the the keys to uh to oil prices
05:16handing it over to you ursula and kaya callis that's what my sources tell me in saudi arabia
05:21they've already given over control of uh of setting the oil price to ursula so uh yeah 45 a barrel
05:34she says that uh that oil is one-third of russia's government revenue revenues is what she said and
05:43uh kirill dimitriev who's in charge of the russian investment uh fund by the way they're targeting the
05:49russian investment fund in these 18th sanctions package packages package kirill dimitriev replied
05:58to ursula saying head of eu commission at von der leyen is ill-informed and bad at math
06:06she claims russian oil and gas make up one-third of russia's budget wrong it's one-fifth 8.3 trillion
06:13out of 38.5 trillion rubles for 2025 that's 21.6 percent not 33 percent if you're going to wage an
06:21economic war at least get your numbers right ursula vandermath
06:28it's one-fifth not one-third but kirill dimitriev is wrong he is wrong because he has not factored in
06:36that in the european union at the european commission level they don't use regular math
06:42they use analina baerbach math so it is one-third of russia's budget kirill dimitriev you should have
06:50known this so what is politico saying let's go to politico they have an article with the title eu
06:58announces punishing sanctions targeting russian energy and banks our message is clear
07:06this war must end ursula vandermath says calling the sanctions robust and hard biting because the
07:16the previous 17 sanctions packages were not robust or hard biting hard biting
07:24i love the words that they use i love their script writers in europe at the eu headquarters i really
07:30really like the the work that they're doing very very descriptive very visual anyway
07:36calling the sanctions robust and hard biting vandermath said the russian economy was already
07:43buckling under the pressure of the eu's past measures and the new package would pummel it further
07:51callus said it was clear that russia does not want peace and needed to pay the price for its outright
07:58illegal war russia is cruel aggressive and a danger to us all she added it's very personal with kaya
08:06callus that quote alone tells you that for kaya callus trying to uh just to destroy russia is very
08:14very personal wow some diplomata never make diplomacy personal kaya callus that's like rule number one
08:25russia is cruel aggressive and a danger to us all that's what kaya callus said as far as ursula she
08:32believes that that uh this is going to bring down it's going to bring down the russian economy it's
08:39already buckling she uh she believes the russian economy is already buckling under the pressure of
08:46the eu's past measures and the new packet package will pummel it further
08:54the russian economy is buckling from the 17 previous uh sanctions packages it's it's at 4.5
09:00or 4.3 or 4.8 growth it's buckling it's buckling hard this is going to be the sanctions package that's
09:09that really uh hummels russia this is going to be the sanctions package that brings growth to uh to
09:16over five percent it's going to really really punish russia this this 18th sanctions package
09:24so slovakia fico he already said that he's not going to to vote for this sanctions package he's going
09:31to vote a big no at least until the eu gives him a plan as to how he will be able to uh to replace
09:40the cheap reliable dependable uh russian energy of which the eu uh mr fitzo prime minister fitzo
09:50they have no plan as to how to replace the cheap reliable russian energy well actually i'll tell you
09:56what the plan is they're going to buy they're going to replace the cheap reliable russian energy with
10:03expensive uh far away kind of reliable us lng and expensive far away russian russian lng russian energy
10:18but that's just been repackaged and sent by third parties that's that's how they're going to do
10:26it so you're going to buy either us lng slovakia and you're going to have to have to continue to
10:32build the eu is going to continue to build lng terminals or at least that's what they say they're
10:37doing and um and you're going to buy from the us which is going to be much more expensive and i
10:44wouldn't be surprised if one day donald trump wakes up and says you know what uh we have to keep
10:48our energy uh in the united states for national interest for security interests so we're not going
10:54to export lng anymore i don't know what europe's going to do if trump decides to do that but anyway
10:59uh other than the us you're going to well you have qatar you have qatar or you're going to uh to buy the
11:06russian uh lng and russian energy and russian oil but it's just going to be sold to you from let's say
11:13the oil from india at a much higher price same oil same russian energy but sold to europe via third parties
11:23intermediary uh countries and suppliers at uh at five five times the price and that's that's the
11:30solution prime minister feeds up so the wall street journal they um they put out an article with the
11:39title russia's top peace negotiator is a historian who justified the war vladimir medinsky warns in an
11:46interview that ukraine would lose more territory if it doesn't agree to moscow's list of demands
11:53this is true medinsky did tell ukraine about the negotiations it's istanbul plus
12:01it's four territories plus crimea has to be recognized internationally recognized or else the
12:09four is going to turn to eight this is true he did say this and he is from what i understand a
12:15historian and a very good historian but um i'm noticing i'm noticing a narrative a theme coming
12:23out of the collective west when it comes to medinsky well first of all they're saying that uh that putin
12:30did not show up and he sent uh he sent medinsky who's this guy medinsky that he sent to the negotiations
12:36if putin was serious about peace he would have shown up i've already said that medinsky was in uh
12:43in the talks in istanbul in 2022 he was the chief negotiator and no one in the collective west had any
12:48problem with that back then but now they have a problem that he's the chief negotiator this time
12:53around in istanbul but uh outside of the the narrative that putin did not show up and sent medinsky
13:01they're now uh saying that medinsky is is a historian how dare putin send a historian mark
13:08rutte in my video update yesterday i talked about how mark rutte was um was mocking medinsky by saying
13:14he's he's just some historian olenski says the same thing putin sent some some low-level historian to
13:22istanbul who this who this low-level history guy uh putin putin should be in istanbul i'm gonna go to
13:30ankara and then albania putin should be in istanbul yes mr president you're 100 correct who cares about
13:38history but i like comedy i like acting um yeah so now they're saying that uh that he's just some
13:47historian as if being a historian is a bad thing they make it out to be like it's a bad profession
13:55you don't have to be smart to be a historian is how they're how they're presenting it which is
13:59completely false and ridiculous because the smartest people some of the smartest people in
14:03the world are historians at least good historic historians good historians are super smart and um
14:09and the collective west would benefit uh just a little bit they would benefit just a little bit by
14:15by knowing and understanding their history right like maybe you don't you don't uh poke the bear and
14:22start stuff up with russia if you knew your history you would understand that you don't fight with russia
14:28just saying but uh being a historian ah not not such a such a reputable uh profession being a historian
14:40it's much better to be a comedian in the case of olensky or or who was leading the the ukraine
14:50the the ukraine negotiating team it was it was an entertainment lawyer yermak much better to have
14:57uh an entertainment lawyer at high level diplomatic uh negotiations much more qualified an entertainment
15:03lawyer is much more qualified at these types of negotiations uh the collective west what was macron
15:13macron was was a teenager theater guy aspiring theater guy who ended up becoming a banker
15:20and was uh was seduced by by his teacher right who was 60 or 70 years older than him or whatever
15:30whatever happened to macron i don't know i'm exaggerating but that trudeau was was a theater
15:35guy and a ski instructor he became prime minister of canada for a long long time
15:40ursula was a ursula was a gynecologist and then she became a failed uh defense minister perhaps the
15:49worst defense minister in uh modern german history right she was an awful defense minister and german
15:57parliament members have said that she was perhaps the worst german defense minister who else uh who else
16:05obama who knows what obama was he was a community organizer or something so i mean you know i think
16:11being a historian is makes you pretty pretty uh qualified to to enter uh politics and to uh to
16:20negotiate and to be in government absolutely anyway that's the article from the wall street journal olenski
16:28gave an interview uh yesterday and olenski said that the reason that cities he was talking about sumi in
16:41this instance but the reason that the cities are not evacuated olenski said is because if a city is empty
16:52then russia it makes it easier for russia to capture that city
16:59a type of of admission from olenski if you want to look at it this way it could be seen
17:06as an admission that uh that ukraine uh uses civilians as shields they do not evacuate cities on purpose
17:15a very very very interesting statement from olenski which is getting uh scrutinized quite a bit
17:28so uh that's that's what olenski said during this interview he also he also said the reason that the
17:39sanctions have not been approved against russia the bone crushing sanctions against russia is because
17:46olenski resists refuses to to force 18 year olds to go to the front lines i believe the the age would
17:56be 18 to 23 or 18 to 24. that's what olenski also uh said kiev's backers demanded ukraine conscript
18:05conscript 18 year olds lowering the draft age was one condition for tightening sanctions on russia
18:13the ukrainian leader has claimed the real reason that olenski this might have been a reason i'm not
18:19i'm not doubting him i wouldn't be surprised if uh if the biden administration and the eu
18:26did tell olenski we're not going to put any more sanctions or give you any more money or weapons until
18:32you send 18 year olds to the front lines that would not surprise me but uh the main reason i believe
18:37that he has not gone ahead and uh and forced 18 year olds to the front lines is because it's extremely
18:45unpopular extremely extremely unpopular and uh olenski's worried that if he did such a thing
18:53he could uh face some sort of removal from office that's that's what i think is is the real reason
19:02why he hasn't gone ahead with uh with this keep in mind that putin said last year that the collective
19:10west is keeping olenski in office so that he can lower the uh the draft age and once he does that once
19:18he signs off the the lowering of the draft age putin said that's when the collective west is going
19:23to get rid of him so maybe he doesn't want to do this because olenski understands that once he does
19:27this then the collective west is going to to tell him to to get lost right that's what putin said last
19:36year one final thing that that the green goblin said is that uh hungary is uh plotting against uh ukraine
19:48he said that uh ukraine has has infiltrated some sort of hungarian uh intel agency plot
19:57in the trans carpathia region and uh hungarian secret services and intel agents they were uh they
20:06were in this region trying to figure out uh where the ukraine military was positioned trying to figure
20:12out where patriot uh air defense was positioned and olenski says that uh they infiltrated this uh
20:19hungarian intel uh group operating inside of ukraine trying to sabotage ukraine and um he said he has
20:29all of the the information and he doesn't release it yet but he's warning orban
20:34stop opposing uh ukraine or else i will release this information look at the turtle the tortoise
20:44look at the tortoise wow he's huge
20:51i don't want to scare him
20:55i don't want to scare him so let me see if i can just get around
21:04there he is
21:16all right
21:19all right let's leave him alone let's let him be wow he's big
21:24big guy enjoy your day my friend
21:36hang it out in the shade
21:40all right so um yeah he said he infiltrated this uh ukraine has infiltrated this hungarian military
21:46intelligence operation is what he called it targeting trans carpathia targeting ukraine's border
21:51vulnerabilities vulnerabilities and testing locals response to peacekeepers uh olenski was hinting
21:58that in in his uh statement he was he was implying that hungary may be looking at trying to to take
22:08uh trans carpathia that's what he was implying in his statement
22:13orban fired back at olenski and he said uh olenski attacked us because hungarians do not want to die for
22:23ukraine we do not want our children to return from the front in coffins and for hungarian money
22:31to go to ukraine so that was orban's response to olenski's accusations and keep in mind olenski said that he
22:37has all the receipts he said he has all the receipts he has videos he has documents
22:43which allegedly show hungarian military intel infiltrating trans carpathia
22:50which as everyone knows is is hungarian a lot of ethnic hungarians uh in this region
22:58panic a lot of panic is starting to set in for for olenski yeah he is starting to panic let's uh talk
23:07about los angeles and gavin newsom gavin newsom taking on u.s president trump newsom gave uh
23:21gave a speech yesterday he addressed california addressed the nation at the beginning of his
23:28address the audio was not working but that was fixed and uh the main message from newsom in this major
23:37address was that democracy is under assault before our eyes democracy is under assault said newsom newsom
23:51is fighting for democracy that's the message this is not about immigration the way this has been
24:01this has been uh positioned which is quite clever it's quite clever the way they've uh they've positioned
24:09uh this this situation in los angeles which is uh spreading to to other cities and on june 14th we're going to
24:19have uh uh marches big marches across uh over i believe over a thousand or a thousand five hundred
24:27cities in the united states in protest of uh ice so uh it is spreading what's going on in los angeles
24:37and there's a curfew as well the mayor of la she put a curfew in place
24:41uh eight o'clock at night to six a.m do not go to uh downtown la but um but for for the democrats
24:53for gavin newsom they are positioning this as uh as a fight against authoritarianism against the
25:03the authoritarian tendencies of donald trump and newsom is the champion of democracy he's not only
25:14fighting for democracy in california but he is uh fighting for democracy in the united states and
25:22perhaps even around the world he is the guardian of democracy the defender of democracy the guardian of the
25:29galaxy uh gavin newsom is the guardian of the galaxy anyway uh he uh he put out this message uh yesterday
25:41and uh politico put out an article which uh is very much what i have been saying about
25:47gavin newsom over the past couple of days which is that uh gavin newsom is now the leader of the
25:55democrat party he's the leader of the left he is the leader of the democrat party he is the anti anti-trump
26:01anti-trump white house guy and the democrat party was having trouble trying to to establish itself after
26:10the uh the elections the 2024 elections the democrat party was was in a whole big mess as a party and they
26:19really did not have any direction they didn't have any leader or any any leaders and now they've they've
26:28got it they've got it in the the man of gavin newsom politico they put out an article with the title
26:37newsom gains a step in brawl with trump it'll help gavin especially if he gets arrested the california
26:45governor governor had faded from national prominence as public attention shifted to washington and in his
26:52home state the deliberations over kamala harris is political future
27:00so this article goes on to talk about uh the the leader gavin newsom the man that is leading
27:08the party the party the democrats and uh according to politico much of the united states of america
27:15against trump that is how they are positioning this that is what politico is uh is writing in this
27:23article and um it's important for the democrats to to have gavin newsom emerge as this type of uh
27:33as this type of um anti-trump anti-trump uh politician for the globalists a lot of what's happening in los
27:45angeles is um is important because for the globalists they they need people like gavin newsom in power
27:55they're looking for leaders like gavin newsom to put in positions of power just like they they pick macron
28:03or trudeau or ursula or churchill number two the globalists are always looking for these types of
28:13politicians that they can place in government especially in uh in positions such as president
28:20or prime minister and that way they get their agenda done and of course the united states is the most
28:29important country for the globalists so absolutely what's happening in in la is a lot about uh about
28:40newsom for now it's newsom we have a long way to go but he's he's the guy that the globalists are now
28:46looking at
28:50so let's talk about what politico
28:56is saying here these elements were found during the creation of the garden in the 19th century
29:03it consists of an inscribed pistol a marble column three parts
29:11of a marble pillar and a capital they have been collected in this site by the ministry of culture
29:25athens
29:42athens that's what athens is all about just walking around and you run into stuff like that
30:01so politico president trump has catapulted gavin newsom to the front of the democratic resistance
30:09no longer is newsom responding to criticism over fellow democrats over aligning with republicans
30:16on transgender athletes or proposing to scale back health insurance for undocumented immigrants
30:22instead as trump turns california into a test of his power to impose his will on blue states newsom
30:30is the democrats standing in his way we're at an inflection point in the country's history says
30:36south carolina state rep j a moore a lawmaker who has been deeply involved in his state's early
30:44presidential primary politics i see in this moment that the government is fighting like hell not just
30:50for the people of la or the people of california or even this country he's fighting for democracy itself
30:59the defender of democracy gavin newsom and they're already positioning him for his political run
31:07guardian of the galaxy and defender of democracy gavin newsom what else is politico saying here
31:14let's sit down
31:22all right politico goes on to say but it's an issue and the governor democrats are seizing as they
31:30look to regain their political footing in trump's washington and if the feuding is benefiting trump
31:36it may ultimately improve newsom's prospects with his own base too i think this is helping trump broadly
31:43said mike madrid a california-based republican consultant who opposes trump i also think it'll help gavin
31:52especially if he gets arrested especially if he gets arrested rather than focus on immigration policies
31:59like california sanctuary limits on cooperation between local law enforcement and the federal government
32:06newsom has framed the fight as a matter of safeguarding democracy against authoritarianism a microcosm of
32:13democrats case against trump and a key gauge of their ability to stop him
32:22yeah it's on it's on like donkey kong
32:26kavin newsom against trump yeah this is exactly what the globalists were looking for
32:35in the united states they needed someone someone to to take on america first
32:40and for now it looks like they've got their man we'll see if if newsom delivers we will see the democrat
32:48party they put out an image of newsom looking very very tough very presidential and underneath this
32:56image it says come and get me tough guy come and get me tough guy that's become the rallying cry
33:04for the democrats according to the media come and get me tough guy
33:12oh my god i think the word is astroturfed this all feels astroturfed right that's that's what's
33:19going on here a lot of this is it's just astroturfed in order to to push up newsom
33:26all right some more news here
33:33some more news elon musk he posted today that he regrets what he posted on x that's what elon musk
33:43said i regret some of my posts about president donald trump last week they went too far
33:50they went too far that's what musk posted this morning morning my time probably late evening
33:59his time middle of the night his time pete hegseth was speaking to congress the defense secretary and
34:06he was asked about project ukraine and hegseth said that the u.s is going to cut aid to ukraine
34:12that's what he told congress u.s to cut ukraine aid defense secretary a peaceful end to the conflict
34:18is in washington's interest pete hegseth has said
34:25so what's going to happen with ukraine what i believe is going to happen with ukraine
34:31is that the u.s will cut off the aid the free aid they will gladly sell they'll be out of project
34:38ukraine or at least that's what the trump administration is going to say they're out of
34:41project ukraine no more uh money to olenski no more free um weapons to olenski but um they will gladly
34:55sell weapons to europe to ukraine and europe pay for it and they'll they'll continue to provide intel
35:04because intel is for the most part it's it's cheap right it's cheap and no one will really ask or know
35:13about it no the american voter is not going to really be concerned with the fact that the u.s is
35:18going to be providing intel to ukraine and trump will tell the neocons i said this a while ago trump
35:25will tell the neocons the military is going to get their money so you're happy i'll continue to provide
35:29intel to ukraine so that should make you happy he'll tell america first i'm not giving any free
35:34weapons or free money to to ukraine so that'll make uh them happy and um the mic will be happy
35:40because europe's going to be buying weapons from them i think that's going to be the the end result of
35:46of trump and project ukraine if i had to take a guess let's do a clown world and we will wrap this
35:51video up how am i doing on time yeah i need to wrap this up so going back to gavin newsom
36:00and his uh his media team they put out his press team they put out a video on social media with uh
36:10yep they did this they put out a video on social media with uh with star wars stormtroopers and the
36:16empire uh emperor palpatine reading one of trump's true social posts on uh on the protest in la palpatine's
36:28voice with stormtroopers in the background and the empire and the empire's uh spaceships in the
36:34background palpatine reading one of trump's truth social posts and one of the comments one of the
