show is called direction, but again, it's not. we don't want to watch it because it might just change the way inside the suite and shuts down its own investigation into the nordstrom blast. well, feel it surprised when our side herse alleges the swedish and the danish hands were dirty and then what he concluded was us lab sabotage. the chief of the international atomic energy agency makes is 4th visit to your largest nuclear power plants and mid year long russian accusations of be praying for skiing nuclear disaster by selling the area. freedom of speech isn't birthright. we were born with the right to say what we believe that right cannot be taken away, no matter who is in the white house that says tucker carlson sits down with the russian president for an exclusive interview, creating a frenzy across the western media. and some outlets criticizing him for doing his
1:01 pm
job as a journalist and the canadian prime minister invited and such a veterans of the countries parliament where he was greeted with applause last september. according to the russian embassy in ottawa, the live in the russian capital. i'm rachel ruble. you're watching our t international to begin in sweden, where the state prosecutor's office has officially pulled the plug on its investigation into the sabotage of the north stream gas pipelines in 2022 stock on implied, has failed to identify any suspects or leave will openly stain it now lacks any further jurisdiction for the case. the russian foreign ministry has condemned to the move in the city of c. i see this with these prosecutor's office has officially decided to stop the federal investigation site and the lack of swedish jurisdiction in the case. it says to justify the end of the investigation by saying within has
1:02 pm
nothing to do with it. and on the other hand, you happily of me, the politics who have something to do with the investigation did not receive anything from you. during the course of the investigation. well it's kind of a math houses this. let's remember house with them. captain bolton didn't know the chunk story. didn't have anything to do with style colors to absolutely nothing. and the sabotage of no streams took place in sweden so they can amik zone and their favorite subject ecology. what about it? well, this within believe that there was no environmental damage caused by the bloss. this we just saw. it is initially demonstrated that they will not serious about bringing the case to a conclusion or even investigates and the dental. so just to give a little bit of background on the situation, several attacks were carried out to destroy the noise frame pipelines back in september of 2022. now these pipelines was built to deliver russian natural gas to germany via the baltic sea. but the question of who did it and who was behind these
1:03 pm
attacks remains unsolved. germany, denmark and sweden have all carried out each their own investigations. and now sweden has conducted the investigation into these mysterious explosions, should be closed, at least from its side. according to the swedish authorities, they now finally have a good picture of what happened. the preliminary investigation has now reached such a state that the authorities have a good picture of the incident and that nothing has emerged to indicate that sweden or swedish citizens were involved in the attack that took place in international waters. they've also added that there has been international cooperation in the investigation with several other countries named lead denmark and germany. now the german investigation continues, but because we didn't, has essentially pulled the plug from the investigation as they see no more reasons fit to continue. they've handed out their findings to germany, but no further information came out. now after the attacks washer,
1:04 pm
as the you went to carry out some independent investigation on the matter, the un declined the proposal. the us and nato call these attacks and acts of sabotage while moscow calls them an act of terrorism. previously, russia has blamed the us the u. k and ukraine to be the culprits behind these bluffs. and it's really not surprising because when you look at what happened after the destruction of the pipeline, russia was essentially cut off from the european markets. and europe went to look to work with other energy suppliers, namely the united states. sweden is also confirmed that whoever was behind these attacks has done it in a deliberate x and beyond the jewel politics. the leaves that came out from the pipelines were huge environmental disaster. so who ever really turns out to be behind all of this will have a big price to pay. so meanwhile,
1:05 pm
sweden and denmark know exactly who was behind the sabotage of north stream. as, according to phillips or prize winning investigative journalist seymour hersh, who was the 1st to claim that the us was responsible for the destruction of the gas pipelines, linking russia to europe in 2022. 1 year ago he published a report accusing the c. i a and nor way of carrying out the underwater bombing. mister hurst, that the operation was personally approved by president biden. the plan was allegedly set in motion in june 2022. when the pipelines were mines by the us navy, according to hers, the needle ball tops drill in the baltic sea was used as hover for the bombing scheme, or will the perpetrators apparently waited a few months until the dust from the military exercise had fully settled. then the mines were allegedly detonated remotely in september, the pipelines passed through danish and the swedish economic zones. and the countries had been cooperating in the blast investigation along with germany. but the pro has failed to turn up any suspect, certainly. and so far as
1:06 pm
a hearse also said, the sabotage was aimed to curtailing europe's access to cheap russian gas, while preventing berlin from developing relations with moscow. at the time bite and ordered the destruction of the pipelines, the american fear was the chancellor schultz who at the request of washington, had shut off 750 miles of russian gas in the new north stream to pipeline that was ready in the fall of 2021 to be delivered to a port in germany might change his mind and let the gas flow using german economic worries and reinstating an important energy force for german industry. that would not be allowed to happen in germany has been in economic and political turmoil since we spoke to an old birds director of the trans national foundation for peace and future research. he believes sweden is politically motivated to curb to pro visit prepares to join nato. i'm not surprised,
1:07 pm
nor surprised by the single argument being used by the prosecutor named me, that sweden does not have jurisdiction to over this. i'm not a lawyer, but i can see you from legal expertise and sweden that you can claim your addiction in this area because it's an exclusive economic zone of sweden. now i would see it in a lot of frameworks. sweden has just is just about to join nato and it has accepted 17 us base, is through a bilateral agreement. i know, i think that it's understandable and that would be my products is that there's, we just go with does not want to have any conflicts or antagonizing whatever by saying that we have seen these them back to that point to the us. and also, i mean if it's us diction was a problem that possibly known the last one and a half years, things that happened. so i think larry is a political,
1:08 pm
political motivation behind this type of closing down. what is an extremely important investigation because of destruction. i don't know what streaming is, not something minimal it's, it's unique and in modern history of sweden, hans, it's evidence over to german investigators. the kremlin says that expects a reaction from berlin since it has lost the most from the blast. your money interest and then cut to jim. and it is a country that has lost and very important asset. a lot of data that has been released about who might be behind the sabotage. it's a remarkable decision by sweden and it's remarkable how it was finalized. we'll have to see how jim in itself we actually 6 years of the country has lost a lot with these at tech. and given up a lot of the tech space in germany, a soft grateful german companies are also suffering, losing that competitiveness and profitability without these gas. i want to how style really, the german activities will approach these investigation. richard,
1:09 pm
as the nord stream pipelines had been, germany is the main source of affordable energy for years. the sabotage apparently affected the country's economy. it was a series of farmers protests ongoing in the country and elsewhere in the you with agricultural workers, angered by high cost and the taxes member of european problem and for the alternative for germany, party gunner back. it says politicians have never taken interest in finding the truth when it comes to north stream. the drivers have no desire whatsoever to find out who is behind the attacks. this occasional rumors have been spread about this whole thing, b, a k. i'm creating an ad to die, but as it's not a credible, schultz has never really condemned the attacks. so whatever evidence the swedes may have the job or the,
1:10 pm
i think it might be to disappear somewhere in the draws all the charles charles, 32, i'm afraid i wish i could say something else, but i'm afraid the fact that the mester geishas, i'll see you are ready to be continued by the day is in charge of house. are these, these doesn't mean that they really have any serious bizarre to find out more. and so i'm afraid i'm skeptical not being skeptical or no, i didn't see the e who was so we'll see you investigated the job. it's a sort of embarrassment for windows made the job and say thank you all parties at noon for a long time who's behind the tax, and they just just do want to review the director general raphael grossey has led a delegation from the international atomic energy agency on
1:11 pm
a visit to this upper rose a nuclear plant under russian military protection, he has reported positively on combined efforts to ensure the safety and the security of the nuclear facility. moscow has accused to have of a deliberately targeting the planned throughout the complex are to use. it goes down off reports of the war in ukraine brought the issue of nuclear safety back into europe. spot life in the very 1st days of the military operation. russia established control over these upper rogia atomic power plant. since then the facility became the target over regular shillings gifted as the crowd. so the key, every shame continues, provocations in order to create a nuclear disaster with a zip powers. you powers on to the on august 28th from ukrainian troops used to try and to attack the territory of the pond to the drawn with shut down while approaching the special building. number one, the lord, which tools american, my nuclear fuel and solid radioactive waste. and the international atomic energy agency took up the task to put out the fire. mister glossy,
1:12 pm
the head of the i. e. a is here is his phone. that's a visit to the zip irosia nuclear power plants and the expectations. uh well, they are mildly high because he's next like of the journey is most cool. it's been over a year since the 1st visit over i fi in crossing director general of i a, a to the plant in a conversation with me. he admit that he hasn't got much closer to the goals of his mission. well, unfortunately, we have conflict in the world. this is the role of i need the national immunization to provide, in the most difficult circumstances, this bridge that allows even if it's difficult for ideas to be exchanged. and then of course, uh, finding the best uh, solutions in this case. uh, we talked technical, technical solutions because we are not discussing politics here. we're discussing technical issues. this is how i see it. yes,
1:13 pm
we are concerned that there is no direct dialogue. we hope these weekends. but what is important is that these breach through the each month and i told them, would you say that the visit you have come closer to the mission? just very quickly said no, i think in my my mission i was come on mission. would it be accomplished when there is no danger anymore when there is no uncertainty anymore? and of course, the relation between the i e a and somebody will continue forever or for at least this plant is operating. so, but it, in the current, extraordinary circumstances our, our, our mission is, is these far from accomplished. we have to make sure that there is no problem. there is no accident, there is no inconvenience. indeed, cost and to tax is the biggest, but mostly only challenge the facility faces. for months to be planned has been
1:14 pm
starving of the water to cool. it's reactors. that's off to the dam, down the river stream collapsed. previously, it was repeatedly boomed by cube forces. the plant also has been understaffed, and its existing employees receive threats from ukraine, 3 or 4 months. recently, according to the information we have, the pressure on personnel through threats continues. they're still attempting to scare people. same time i, a director general does not hold back from praising russian personnel for securing the power plant on the ground regarding the safety and radiation monitoring by the piece of the at, at the plant. we see them as of the quit. and we are, of course, uh on spend the looking at this. what i see that work is, is an effort which is extremely professional here that i see at. but of course, because of the reasons i mentioned, we got a war,
1:15 pm
there could be an effective block house that could be many things that are beyond the capacities of people here. we cannot say is absolutely stable, but we see i'm extremely professional to work here. given the size of this upper ocean power plant, a nuclear meltdown could have the 2 new lucas passenger feet pale. in comparison. experts agree. this is far from an actual possibility. for now, a fragile liquid librium that might be one unlucky strike away from collapsing. i'm a guess done of reporting from zippers. you see the canadian media are reporting that prime minister just in true though, personally invited ukrainian voss and assess the veteran hookah for an official reception. in september, last year, the russian embassy in canada has responded to the latest revelation. now it's especial, it was prime minister justin to domain bought to desktops criminal to the parliament
1:16 pm
last year as recommended by the print in canada and community. that's 5 months later, still that silent, don't you of whom cause nancy post. no condemnation equals justification. was kind of like everyone's the while here in france, a designated world war 2 or it is just simply pops up. usually when there's an excavation involved, it shows up in passing on a work site somewhere. and the same thing seems to be happening right now. it's a canadian prime minister justin trudeau except with actual nazis or rather one particular nazi who fought for our ukrainian watson ss volunteer unit. so the episode involving 98 year old yellow slob, hung up being celebrated and cheered in canadian parliament during a visit from ukrainian president buyers. when's the last haul? just is not being put to rest quick reminder of what happened there. we have here in the chamber today ukrainian canadians cleaning canadian world veteran from the 2nd world war from fort ukrainian,
1:17 pm
independence against the russians the fall. and now information has come to light in the canadian press in a form of an e mail to hong kong from through those office of the prime minister, inviting hunger to a private reception with the entry door together in toronto on the very same day as it is these visit department in all? okay. never actually attended that event about a 1000 people did go. but it's the fact that the invitation was sent out to those office that which 2 days behavior back under the microscope liberal party line was that true though? had absolutely no clue, it was all wrote as false. so you know what that means? speaker was solely responsible for the invitation. in recognition of this man and his holy accepted that responsibility and stepped down. this was
1:18 pm
a mistake that his deeply embarrassed parliament and canada. this initiative was entirely my own individual in question being from my writing and having been brought to my attention no one including you, my fellow elementary ins or you create in the ukraine delegation was privy to my remarks prior to their delivery product through himself in front of the boss to prevent trio from taking a direct hit from the scandal or even the liberal parties, electronic chances for taking a hit or even canada more broadly for taking it because the incident that definitely go on international and apology is out every holocaust survivor and veteran of the 2nd world war proof what the nazis and an explanation must be provided as to how this individual entered the hallowed halls of the canadian parliament and received recognition from the speaker of the house and the standing ovation. in view of the scandalous events and the canadian parliament,
1:19 pm
which involved honoring a member of the criminal nazi escalades, the information in the presence of president zalinski, i have taken steps towards the possible extradition of this man to poland. it was wild to see this terrible situation in the canadian parliament when everyone stood up together and applauded a former nazi a soldier of the scholars here division. granted, simply disgusting. canadian ukrainian congress such as a ukrainian bobby group put forward honk his name for the reception was to go and zalesky. i wrote it now says that the parliament protocol office wouldn't have the whole list invented by the prime minister's office with a fine tooth comb before the invites, were finalized and ultimately sent out. and it's all being characterized as yet another screw of applied to go with the opposition, demanding to know why to go was not for coming about all of this at the time. so true to live again. for months he's been saying that only the speaker invited
1:20 pm
before my not see to the ukraine prisons to visit it, go to global embarrassment. and the russian propaganda when to through this became another random liberal, under the bus fully failed that now with lunch with this office invited the form and not say to meet the crane president. keep in mind that the canadian press, notably the ottawa citizen, already underscored canadian defense department reservations, when they showed up in 2018 to train ukrainian as off battalion fighters ultimately to eventually fight russia. i noticed that they were covered and not nazi tattoos. and in that case, and also in the case of to those, they seemed more worried about the public perception that the problem by nature of their own actions. so there are some presidents spokesperson has confirmed about vladimir putin sat down with american journalists tucker carlson. here in moscow on tuesday, dmitri pest kind of explained why president put and accepted carlson's interview request. and you want me for you to talk
1:21 pm
a color. some stance differs from the west and media. it's not for russian at all. no. is it pro ukrainian, rather it's pro american, but at least he's done some makes the countries to one of those traditional anglo american media. mr. carlson has promised to release the video soon. meanwhile, his teaser announcement posted on the x platform has already garnered more than 80000000 views. it also marks the 1st time the russian president has sat down with the western journalist since the outbreak of the ukraine complex. almost 2 years ago, most americans have no idea why prudent invaded ukraine, or what is goals are now they've never heard his voice. that's wrong. the americans have a right to know all they can about a war. they are implicated in and we have the right to tell them about it, because we are americans to freedom of speech is our birth right? we were born with the right to say what we believe that right cannot be taken away,
1:22 pm
no matter who is in the white house. on joining the law now live in the studios are 2. so charlotte dimansky, charlotte absolute was a huge interview for any journalist to score, let alone a western journalists talk to us about the reaction. well, incredible reaction across the main stream, media, mainly of cynicism. and they saw idea of slandering tucker, carlson, who was schooled this huge career defining interview, describing him is being approaching stooge a cnn which is full employer for many years ago. describing him was approved in supporting celebrity and a fall right to and that's still rate. we both know that when you say somebody is, all right, anything the connotations are pretty well known with that it's, you, untouchable, you, baby one step away from being evil and involved in, dictate to ship. let's have a look at how some of the mainstream media, particularly us, have been covering this visit as proven is trying to court the mag of g o p in the
1:23 pm
united states. in fact, one of the leaders of the mag g o p is in moscow tonight. it's the man you see here with a mag, a leader, donald trump, tucker carlson, tucker. carlson is lying from the streets of russia no less. tucker, coughing is not a journalist. it's not even close to her calls and doing the propaganda work of basically russian state media for them. kaufman is lounging about and again, preaching his wiki conspiracy theories about the lying media. dragging the us into support in the ukraine in vol. you know, you may be wondering what the evidence is that tucker carlson is approved in stage will be evidence the one of the mainstream media have been given. and while i sold this across pretty much every platform, whether this was in a video content on tv or whether they slips in an article is an old clip from took a call some show when he was a host of folks. that's quite a long time since he left folks. and this is a click that comes from
1:24 pm
a today's prefer via to the start of the ukraine conflict. and this is the evidence that they say shows tucker carlson is a pretend stage it gives putting a chance to sit down with a big supporter to might be worth asking yourself since it is getting pretty serious. what is this really about? why do you, why hate putting so much withdrawing from center? there was a nother very loud and influential a right wing voice, but sideways putting over and over and over again as well. also we've got your list through writing calls and as well saying that he's in, nobody's saying that he's trying to reinvent himself and trying to make himself relevant. a thought last coming coming from jim saki who's a former white house press secretary under the bite and administrator. and she's now a host on an american main stream network. and she's also like, and his visit to mosca is being something. it's a link to what's going on in the us,
1:25 pm
the republicans to the mug of movement and saying that this is a little like a grand scheme of making sure that donald trump gets into the white house in the event. but let's have a machine to me where function saki have say, of course colson is now just a nother far right, conspiracy peddler with the show and the internet is no longer on foxes. we all know. tucker carlson has to twine remain relevant as you've already said. the clip of him saying that he was into things like last person, gauntlet, tens of millions of years in just a few hours. the whole mainstream media is talking about and he doesn't have to try and be relevant. she is relevant. yeah, it's a sounds like sour grapes to me. i mean, cnn hardly gets any be or isn't here talking across and gets 80000000 views. he got a wonder when the interview comes out. it's going to break the internet, but, but it, but it hasn't come out. we don't even know what the to discuss yet. that's why it is interesting. given that we have 0 idea of what content is, we don't know what talk a cost in aust. we don't know what the audience is,
1:26 pm
what it, despite that the mainstream media has already destroyed, is that this is a propaganda database. promoting preteen. they've decided judge in jewelry, this is a done deal. i was really interesting is cnn, again, really grinding an axe here, say this is going to be pushing the preteen propaganda to the rest of the world. colson will effectively humanize the ruthless russian authoritarian whose pass. now responsible for accomplish stuff. well, 7 is enough to invest selling, which puts in gunship. he's done just propaganda to the american public. and now what i find really interesting is that there's been a lot of questions over this idea, but no other west enjoying this, this happening to be was like me, a preaching since stopped to the when you create a separate lot, let's the bbc, cnn, and others have said, look, we will try it, we haven't gone to it. but now the not happy that tucker coughing has gone by the interview, which does sound like solid. great. you can't have it both ways. you want me to
1:27 pm
work west and during this to come here to do a sit down interview, which we understand could be up to 2 hours long. so probably very wide ranging and then say, well, we're not happy with the person that he chose. so if it's very unusual and interesting that i'm an all, not ideas that you and this, we know you put requests and it was a time they don't always bring, let any facts costs. it has asked me for landscape for an interview. got a response for that. it's the normal calls to us that we do. yeah. is this a while to watch the character assassination going on here without even knowing what kind of interview it is um and, and also some former politicians even going so far as to call tucker carlson. right . or what can you tell us about that? yeah, that's what this is one full and the republican congressman. he's actually posted a poll on the social media side x asking people if they think that tucker costs and he's being paid for bali, the criminal and he's basically on that pay will. others have suggested that he
1:28 pm
should have all the going back to america. we've even had current politicians in the european union seeing that he should be sanctioned as a result of sitting down and interviewing the leader of a nelfa country. suggesting that could take the form of economic sanctions or even a travel bond. it is pretty incredible. and let's just be clear at tucker costs and has had a very long career. it's been fairly distinguished. he's worked with some of the biggest board cost is in the world, and he has asked the tough questions in his career when it comes to the claim for he has criticized president pushing. he has criticized russia. he says the so wasting his head is because he doesn't feel the american public understand the war and what's going on and give him the billions upon billions of tax payers money form america has been popping up key if he thinks that they need to understand. and need to know where that money's going. yeah, you would think that people would understand that, but now we have the west calling for a journalist to be sanctioned for being
1:29 pm
a journalist. i just was my mind. all right. are to charlotte defense case. thank you. of the most um, distressing news from southwestern of pakistan or at least 28 people have reportedly been killed in more than 2 dozen injured and a pair of bombings at election offices on the eve of a crucial parliamentary votes. the 1st attack in passion that killed at least 14 people and wounded doesn't summon critical condition. according to police, both parties announced a later blast to the killed 10 more people. one of the dead is reportedly and independent candidates in south and south west pakistan. no one has claimed responsibility for the attack so far. we've heard from locals who saw the explosions. deactivate. i got a call from a colleague den of glass to place inside the party office. i came and saw everything was destroyed, forgot to say through the district protector, say protector, country. today i was facing friends of mine to the minus side,
1:30 pm
so we have reports of one day to arrive into a hospital. why treated and wounded in accordance with that condition? why treating them in the trauma center and dr rate and fee it, so we have per pet and the god willing we will maintain our determination and continue our way. we will continue our election activities without any c. d. 's last will not stop us from. i work out i have to all the attacks commas. pakistan makes the final preparations for thursday's. the general elections when the world's 5th most populous nation, will elect a new parliament. the new chamber will then assign a prime minister. the elections have been marred by grouping inflation in pakistan and political turmoil over legal proceedings against former prime minister in wrong con, local journalists. it brings us the latest data to uh, one blast today. and spike's funds far as promote as far as the 1st blast by the mas machine in sophistic cono's a.
