From GERMANY- First an interview with Luisa Neubauer, one of the founders of the German school strike for climate, known as Fridays For Future. She discusses news that Germany may extend its use of coal for electricity, and the state of climate activism after the pandemic and the war in Ukraine. A report on decisions made at the G7 meeting in Germany, which focused more on the war in Ukraine and the increase in the NATO military buildup, than on the climate crisis which had been the original agenda.
From GEORGE GALLOWAY- George Galloway interviewed a group of journalists on the emerging two world orders. One of the speakers was Johnny Miller, who is reporting live from Donbas in eastern Ukraine. He explains that there are almost no western reporters on the ground in the region leading to a very incomplete view of what is happening in that region, where civilian areas are being bombed daily by Ukrainian forces with weapons supplied from the US and Europe. He says the Russian speaking citizens say that they have been under attack since 2014, and that both the Russian and Ukrainian sides are misreporting events and the roots of the conflict.
From JAPAN- NATO held a summit in Madrid, with Sweden and Finland applying for membership- the leaders endorsed describing Russia as a direct threat to the alliance, and discussed threats in Asia. North Korea accused NATO of attempting to create an Asian version of the military pact. The Taliban asked the international community for support after a deadly earthquake, but many governments do not recognize the Taliban because of their failure to fully protect women's human rights.
From CUBA- The UN Human Rights leader Michelle Bachelet called the US Supreme Court dismissal of Roe V Wade as a huge blow to women's human rights. Japan is experiencing record shattering heat and an early end of the rain season. Thousands gathered in Madrid to protest the NATO summit, calling for US troops to withdraw from Europe.

"There are virtually no places in the corporate media apparatus where you can tell the truth to challenge corporate tyranny and this US imperialist narrative of constant regime change all around the world. It is a very dangerous and slippery slope that we are on and I just think it is time that we take a step back and actually fund the journalists that we want to see." --Abby Martin
