the, the, the, the g 7 release is a new plan to help you crane by curbing rushes energy revenues. but the figures show high european dependence on russian l. n. g. chad demands us troops leaving air based on the country. that's in the letter by the african nations air force chief becomes the 2nd nation in this, the whole region to give the boots to us military for new charges the same. i just want to give you a sneak peak of behind the scenes of taking place here. most kind of needs to be one of the main parts of the movie and our correspond to it gets a closer look at indian film making in central in moscow with the movie set to hit the big screen in september.

the are watching are to international. i'm rachel ruble live in the russian capital. the group of southern country is, has dropped a joint communique aiming to bolster ukraine's air defenses by cutting rushes energy revenues and the confiscating it's a frozen assets. over the past 10 years, western countries have imposed increasingly harsh sanctions on russia. but moscow still remains a top global supplier of gas oil and select the minerals and the mining operations . for example, in 2023 alone e u countries and doubled in force of russian nuclear fuel compared to the year before r t contributor rachel mars and things deeper into the reality of europe's ability to curve brushes, revenues the g 74, and ministers, and that didn't copy italy this week and was a big items on the agenda was dropped a level letter to their girlfriends. ukrainian president vladimir zalinski,

basically consisted of telling off the rest of the entire world outside of here, the plumber that still has no divided by. there's man, just stop buying things from russia. we will continue to apply significant pressure on russian revenues from energy and other sectors. we call on all countries to reduce their imports from russia, which are supporting its war. we will continue to take steps to tighten compliance and enforcement of the oil price cap. we will respond to price capt violations, including by imposing additional sanctions, measures on those engaged in deceptive practices while transporting, rushing oil. so they're sticking it to put in by using their own citizens as blue dollars, basically sticking it to those citizens, right in their cost of living with no one's insight di inflation as a result of energy being factored in, relation to the cost of everything in the supply chain and by sticking it to their citizens, they figured there's taking it to pretend. and now what they're saying is that

they're going to crack down on that. the dirty cheaters, violating the price cap of $60.00 a barrel for russian oil that they impose. basically through peer pressure, like in high school on there, the club of allied nations back in december 2022. so this is the same price tap that a bunch of countries have been conveniently, lapse about by purchasing oil from 3rd countries like india. for example, oil that just may have had a russian identity before it immigrated to india, then mingled with other oil molecules there and then have the absolutely nerve to just come ashore and they, these western nations like for example, european countries where a citizens are supposed to be sticking it to put in by taking short showers, going on almost 3 years now. so all these g 7 countries signed onto this love letters is the last. do you all the same time playing footsie under the table with russia? g 7 number japan, for example, hit a 7 year monthly record of russian liquefied natural gas imports just last december

. and just last month, those in ports were nearly 43 percent for december of 2020 to talk you. as for ministry said earlier this week, the japan on was staying the course on joint oil and gas projects with russia on site to lean islands that are critical which enters the curity. the meanwhile, for all the noise they make about sanctions, violators and band and count violators. it's not like they stopped importing gas from russia. they just replaced their russian pipeline gas. it works with russian l . n g, a $1000000000.00 worth of russian architect liquefied natural gas into the every month to be exact. in 2023, the block was actually still importing 15 percent of its pipeline gas from russia. well, that's down from 45 percent. that russian gas comprised of its imports before that conflict in ukraine. it's still my tongue. was a bit or shocked to people who are actually listening to brussels. brag about how they were sticking it to put in by depriving of energy revenues that they were

still importing any pipeline gas at all. now add to that the n g o global witness reporting last year that the you really just pivoted to importing russian liquefied natural gas instead of pipeline gas with russian elegy imports into the you jump a 40 percent. since the onset of the conflict, even more than in each of the previous 2 years. yes, no one told french president a menu and my call back in march of 2022. sounds like people using russian gas to heat their homes, their cooks, and by gets in france, may as well be personally carpet bombing ukraine sort of policy. finally, russia has already started to cutoff gas supplies by closing the north stream. one pipe line of work that's a very clear message and they wouldn't use gas as a weapon. the will we will need do without russian gas completely. they don't clean so fast forward to present day by the way. french elegy from russia is up 75

percent in the 1st few months of this year compared to a year ago. and remember a few months ago that michael said he expected a gary in prime minister victor or a bond to act like you european. when it toms, do you craze interest and fall in line with the establishment agenda? well, it turns out that it's french and not hungry. that was actually russia's top customer for elegy last february. not sure who's been taking all the long, hot showers in france, but the country is paid 600000000 euros to russia for gas supply so far this year. as for germany, it's been getting russia gas from its neighbors kind of like if your next door neighbor came over with a jerry cam and hose and took the gas of your cars. take while complained a what into moral dirt bag. you wearable who use sites, getting it out, and the netherlands and belgium being the dirt bag dealers are brushing gas in this case. anyway, it's average germans, we're paying for this price, the birds you say going in any case,

phyllis and stuff is we urgently need to ensure that germany has cheap energy again . and i wonder why other countries, for example, have no problem in forwarding russian oil or gas of, i'm a decent germany does this to, by the way. but germany is currently doing it in a particularly stupid and expensive and environmental li, damaging way. we get the oil via india, and we get the gas towards the liquid gas by a belgium. it would be more obvious to use the pipeline. then it would be much cheaper. it really has announced that it will replace rushing gas with other countries gas like azerbaijan, for example, by 2025, which actually azerbaijan has been in 40 gas from russia itself since 2022. so it looks like europe will have to police mingling molecules again in that case the russian foreign ministers seem surprised with the lease announcements suggesting that he believes in ports of actually been heading in the opposite direction from

his rhetoric to solicit. sure, certainly they probably claim they got rid of the russian gas, but in fact, exports have been growing to many countries, including france and literally literally recently happy lead restored digital shows the plan to reduce the share of russian gas and their consumption from 90 percent to 0 within 3 years german chancellor schoultz did the same, presenting it as a victory to his voters, saying germany has dramatically reduced to dependence on russian energy resources and will soon be completely independent. but nobody mentions the price they're paying for this space. russian elegy imports also reached a record high in april of 2023 and it happens to send out its supply for re export to italy and france. so it really does look like it's the g 7 is adamant, as they say about policing breaches of the russian energy band. it really doesn't look like it will cost very much for them to travel to investigate. they can pretty

much just stay home, open up the tomato and have a good book. the international monetary fund warns that confiscating frozen the reserves couldn't the stabilize the entire global financial system. to prevent this risk, the director of the i, m f. c or pin department offered camer emphasize the need for strong legal justification before any action of seizing rushes and mobilize reserves is taken. the chad has demanded. the us leave. it's air base in the country, and that's according to a letter sent by the nation's air force. chief r t is notable, you can get, it has more. what we have seen is a copy of one of the lead to the, sent to the french embassy in tad, to situate to an ex, outlining how to of a stop. it just a means demands that you is to provide the written agreement and justification that

to you as close as it should be on the as you can see a base in the mean that jots air force has ask them every can to provide the documents or but that's what agreements justifying that presence at a g, cause a advice in response to 2 agreements screwing on logistical support and the personnel between our 2 states. but shots, as voice did not receive justifications or the presence just as the force of the us defense at the share to immediately stop the activities at the g cause a base. this development is key for the to the read that. so this is the, the 2nd country is the reason to keep america out. in lots of this us, the united states was forced to stop. we submitted c operation of a miss. a lot is off, i need, it goes to the, the american presence in the territory of the republic of news here is a legal, it violates all the constitutional and democratic rules which would require the silver and people, notably. so it's elected officials to be consulted on the installation of a, for an army, and that's territory. the government of new year taking into account the

aspirations and interest of its people. besides was full responsibility to denounce was immediate. the fact the agreement relating to the status of military person of the united states. and similarly, an employees of the american department of defense in the territory of the republic of can you hear the spokes person, the staging that the agreement is not only profound gmc, and it is, but it does not lead the aspirations and interest of the new jersey and people because of the sleep, it forces me to pay both related to texas and american military aircraft, which must be paid regularly and which cost me jamie, in 6th period. billy is of a frowns and then the competence of new segment authorities have no information on military to which is carried out from american bases in new zeta. and i'm a wave of the civilian and military personnel as well as the american equipment deployed on these areas. soil, it's been cleared for quite some time. now that's easy, it does not want a permanent foreign ministry. praise is on, on its territory,

even though the u. s. had agreed to eventually withdrawal. right now, it had been hanging on to its last best to contact here. was outposts in width and africa for quite some time, well, continuously blaming russia for its detailed race since in africa. the russian federations uh narrative drowned out the us government in the past years. they were excel and the russian federation of stoked a lot of the instability across the so how they did this through misinformation this information campaigns. so i see how we will double down and our efforts is through our own information campaign, but matched with our assurance efforts. a russian federation is really trying to take over the central africa as well as the south. within africa, the russian federation wants to establish a ground game that resembles a start,

say, partnership program, but it doesn't have the values. it doesn't have the values of democratic values above what we bring sides. that is the intrinsic values for stability, security and security of security and prosperity with our african partners the pen to go to has been criticized even for abandoning its soldiers in new z. h would many people asking out as a group of american soldiers who defense department officials insisted were in the country simply to change, to advise and to assist me is this ministry that didn't be get sent to search. a tribute was can put a match, the risk of missing, then they had it missing the plan to carry out or did the missing. and why would the manages, equipped with the heavy whip and flipped bluetooth vehicles in and talked to territories in new z. it's exactly that incident that's been re ignited a longstanding arguments over the spalding and often opaque will for to by american

troops around the world. even then, members of the congress from both part, you said they knew little about the american military presence in the z. the bite in administration and the state departments are engaged in a massive cover up. they are hiding the true conditions on the ground of us diplomatic relations and knowledge under effectively abandoning our troops in that country with no help in sight. i didn't know there was 1000 troops in nyja. this is an endless will without boundaries, no limitation on time or geography. we don't know exactly where, where it's in the world militarily, and what we're doing for you is knows that the war on terror is a big failure in africa fall from reducing the violence that it only makes noise about. in fact, the results of you is, assistance in africa speaks for themselves as a recent report in the indicated, not so long ago, the diamonds on the african continent is far worse. then when the u. s. military came in to help the african continent to revealing that,

to this from terrorism in africa have skyrocketed to more than 100000 pacific during the u as well in terra. and at this point, the u. s. may hit salvage something in tad, but if it exists that lots mississippi really be a tragedy for chad, the same way is that is not a tragedy for new z. loose that abraham is executive secretary of the african legacy foundation grouping. and the former spokesperson for the market off the libyan government. he says the african nations are becoming more aware they cannot reach at peace with western involvement. this is a wonderful continuation. i read away kennings of african liberation, spit. it goes back to when africans took up weapons and putting together, struggling to liberate their lands for on the occupation by west and force is as early as the fifty's and sixty's. now,

africans realized that to gain full sovereignty to truly have control over. busy their natural resources, their economies, politics, they must get rid of or phone and manage the presence west and the corporations that's controlled. freak any economy, the politics, even media. and this is not a southern thing. this has been boiling up for the last 10 years. at least, i would claim, since the destruction of my home country, of libya in 2011, which made many african nations. the realize that you simply cannot have peace and not understanding with the west, which libya tried to do the west. as soon as you try to gain control of fuel economy, fuel, natural resources, if you're only if you're golden, the west wouldn't come when file when for us to take it back. fine,

i'm sure funding on training. see but the into the sauce region. chad is the heart of that, i'm from child, the nyja to natalie and both, you know, 5. so a problem stand faced by african countries up to this moment. and then of course, the west comes and says, we want to protect you from this program, allow us to have miniature prisons, so deteriorates opprobrium. they find this and then they come in with been, you know, power to solve it. the reason, of course, what they want is to take the control of the economy of resources, of the geography, to leave the globe and wars from other people. his lands. now to the middle east where there's been a powerful explosion and other military installations, south of the iraqi capital kelso military base around 50 kilometers south of baghdad was reportedly hit in an error striked original media as well as security

personnel reported. one person was killed and 6, others wounded cal's so military installation has multiple units including iraqi security forces. but mostly fighters of the popular mobilization force, known for their operations against isis commanders have launched an investigation saying the blast has also caused some material damage over to india, where the 1st phase of the countries marathon election cycle is complete. india, as general election will be held in southern stages over the next 6 weeks, and r t is hosting special coverage of the major event. the holes in the 1st phase of the 6 week long general election in india closed on friday evening with voters casting their ballots across 21 states and the territories that actually the commission said the average turnout was 67 percent

this year. india has nearly 1000000000 eligible voters as more than 10 percent of the world's population. the elections will ramp up on june 1st with the results to be announced. 3 days later, the large scale election requires more than a 1000000 pulling booths and over 15000000 workers to oversee it on us. and the call he known as the silent village in jonathan cashmere has also found its voice. 90 residence book, born with hearing and speech apartments also have the opportunity to cast their votes and the elections people. they're mostly voted for basic amenities such as roads, water, education, and health care facilities. next, earlier we spoke with sarah marcelli adina adage and all school of international affairs, he says, the world is watching the indian election closely as the result could have a global impact. well, i think because india is the rising power. if anything big that happens in this

country is naturally of global consequence. so like you said, i mean close to 1000000000 borders. more than 2200 political parties. you don't. housings of candidates lying for positions. this is just human goods, right? i mean, so i think one is just the field size in the dimension. many people are model or india of how it horse together and how it is rising and how it's democratic process has been so successful and so robust and so credible, you know, so what all these reasons i think of this election is going to be close me watched, no matter what the outcome people want to see can be a succeed. you know, most of the international community has a positive view of india. and when they conduct something on this to uh, in almost a full proof minor with hardly any feed your i think that's like moving in the us

lots and mentors for the work. i think uh, india is actually much more united than the western critics. i tried to make, you know, to be there's this whole negative that india is becoming very polarized and divided and all that much time liberal news media keeps on hopping on that. but if you see the realities quite different, i think the country is getting more unified and mobilized is more than nationalistic consciousness. people want to be seen as indians 1st and the only then we tell the religion or cast or language they belong to. i think this, i'm all the, and these party what they've done in the last 10 years is really galvanize the society. you know, we're, that there is a broader indian mess. so didn't, didn't consciousness. so the idea that, you know, be a highly be why did i think that is being challenged, even in the election, you'll see people are moving across the lines of custom, religion, and even language. you know, so it shows that there is a sense, especially in the national level election at the state level elections. maybe the, a lot of faxes coming. but now we're doing this for the national parliaments and

the general elections. there is just brought out a sense of india as a country and the we are all the indians and we need to do something for that as of this country. i expect mr. moseley to get a 3rd. so most of the pundits and these are follow just the people who study election signs believe that he would win and his party will retain power. but you know, uncertainty of outcome cannot be that would be to very, very transparent and free and fair elections. and the uncertain packets of the country that are the parties that we uh and you, we always need them all position in the country. you know, you should not be a one sided up here. so people want some balance. so let's see about overall i think the risk is quite clear. india is becoming more nationalistic, and is becoming more democratic. and india is likely to stick them out in the morning. we are closely watching the events unfolding in india as hundreds of millions of citizens take to the polls to choose their next leaders. we can always had to our website

r t dot com for the full schedule of the election. as well as more details and analysis of the ongoing votes. israel has a set up a settlement construction in east jerusalem after the war broke out in gaza. that's according to a recent guardian article. the publication came as a 3 families in the shape to ron neighborhood at east jerusalem received eviction notice as ordered by the jerusalem magistrates courts are too spoken to one of them . a highly yet hosted with the renewal of a 9 and 48, the evicted 531 villages and most of their, our children, women and elders. so unfortunately, there were no cameras there. no such technology back that and nothing but today the world watches guys have been killed live on here and does nothing about it. you owe me. there's no sense of security. every day we have a catastrophe, like not every day we have a sudden back like the knox, a word 96 to 7 and day by day it gets worse. she had been living here for 50 years, sounded from the settler. com send evict to me from my home and that could buys my

good entry hospitals always go and doctors, we have to go into tennis and i told you, phil is really government has a program for a service along with the i'll just my house and all the how this is really government doesn't one piece or the 20 most in state, these really government only wants a jewish state. well, how to send me a according to the article settlement building across east to jerusalem has accelerated with the israeli government, standing behind all the largest projects. more than 20 projects with thousands of houses are in the pipeline, but continuing expansion of this really settlements is regarded as illegal under international law. but israel disputes this earlier this week, the jerusalem magistrate court order the eviction of 3 palestinian families from their homes according to the ruling they are expected to vacate the house before july. the reports say the house includes 3 apartments that 20 members of the 3 families live in, somebody of whose family also gotten eviction notice says he wants to appeal. i

love to see despite all the pressure and jerusalem, i see, i don't know how's demolition. some of the tasks of our home, some of the confiscation mole lands, beautiful. the taxes from all aspects, all were main stuff. their kids didn't start recently when they started 50 years ago, and it's really rad, be clean. so you bought this land in the year 8 in $7.00 to $6.00. isaac, so we don't need an excuse to kill powers, teenagers, and they don't need an excuse to expel post the names from their homes. how much of the citizens were ready. so they went under the table and today they brought them all the noise, our own garza, and today they explode the opportunity to do whatever they want had and separate us from orlando. and that there can be nose who will appeal to the central port. them is the piece of work cannot interfere after the supreme court decision. and god willing, we will confirm rolling to freeze the decision until the ownership of the line is proven how common it was meant. they are a government of texas tremendous. so maybe there's nothing on them do it or unlikely for this government as i got used to the faxing down to say into something

in the back. i mean, but things are changing in the world to them as the magic is strongly against them . additionally, or so all the claims that got their complete lives, they used to say are now exposed on the table. i'm so i thought of proving that we are a press get off my head. we have been under oppression for a 100 years and one on the saddle of terrors. beautiful silence, and foolishness of this page. and so i say the future is hours if he's good, while patients can be beautiful. we've been hearing this times, which is not google journey. when a little in the nation, musicians have held a demonstration in front of the u. s embassy in jakarta, demanding a cease fire in gaza and showing solidarity with palestinians. indonesian officials earlier said the american veto on palestine is un membership, betrays that piece are to correspond that rebecca, not the to pull who was at the protest, a fight against israel's oppression. has come in different forms in indonesia and this afternoon in front of the u. s. embassy and the capital of jakarta. music

represents the voices of the people to deliver their support for the people off the palestine. the solutions coalition for gaza was just formed a few days ago by more than 20 in the nation with stations who shared the same view and the importance of immediate ceasefire in gauze up. the southern movement came after the non stop attack by israel, supported by the west to the palestine. and now iran, these most nations feel the need to voice their support and also demanding the world leaders to do something for the ceasefire in god. and for them, the best way to deliver their voice is, is through what they're best at music, you know, and just say, call them that we did mom and unconditional cease finding that especially considering that the us supports the time,

which is why we as standing right in front of its embassy image. that is another reason for this is that the us is one of the most competitive applies in what's happening in palestine. once they can turn the table down, be the actions taken by israel and america around me getting was if i think that's why we think that since we don't have diplomatic relations with israel, this is a place where we can lay out the mon, i'm one of the yeah, the same as it as positive, the global community comfortable. i feel the necessity to speak. how can i talk? and then the attacks on palestine have been going on for more than 6 months. every day we see the pictures and videos on social media. we can see the brutality that goes beyond any human reason. most amazes me. it sounds like somebody close a month as a will. don't take any action to stop. they told me that maybe it is not a concert, but some of the sections took place to sing a song or read form. because through this lyrics, through the words, they wanted to express their support and their solidarity for the people off

palestine shouting free palestine in between the shares a message of solidarity and also for some music is the best way for them to express their point of view. in politics and also to connect more with the younger audience is also their listeners and sending within a nation constitution. this is what the afternoon is all about, shouting and also demanding world keys and also for them to ask to stop the oppression in any forms in israel. what are they going to be the full reporting from jakarta for r t i? it seems that brooks is about to get bigger with colombia expressing its interest in joining the block as soon as possible. but countries desire to join bricks was expressed of the joint statement following a meeting between the brazilian president and the columbia and leader columbia in.
