12:18 am
on the front lines of the war in ukraine. moscow says it forces a making gains in the northeast of the country. it says that russian troops have taken control of a village near ukraine, 2nd largest city of har. keith, russian forces have been advancing in the area since key re crime control of the city. in september, russian defense ministries also saying 20 ukrainian soldiers were killed and harrison in the south. and more than a 100 near the front lines of copy can cross nearly muranski. meanwhile, the reports of russia saying that the ukrainian forces of shell parts have done yet 40 rockets will fight in a tank. that last 2 minutes a done, the prosecutors building and a library were hit. they miss ronnie has more from ukraine in capital case. it's been another day that began with an air raid siren the threat of a ballistic missile. once again flying over the country. overnight there was a number of missile strikes that reported in the morning. we heard reports of
12:19 am
artillery shells being fired on areas in su me and up and down the 1300 kilometer front line on the east of the country. there continue to be a number of skirmishes. many of them don't even make it to the headlines, but at the moment the major fight that has become part of the information war as well. is that for the battle for the city of buck moved? now we that keeps making the headlines and with about 5 days to go until the one your anniversary, people are watching very closely with happening in and around the area of that city of buck moods. and largely because vladimir putin, the russian leader, had said that he wanted his forces to take control of it before the anniversary. and that has now become not only an important strategic city for both sides, but a symbolic one as well. worn ukraine and us china relations have dominated the gender on the final day of the munich security conference. you leaders call for urgent access to more ammunition and financial aid for ukraine as well. by james
12:20 am
topped at one ye, us secretary of state lincoln to resolve the damage to ties between the 2 nations. they held talks for the 1st time since washington accused china of sending my balloon into its base. were trying to see me that plan also announced that budget would propose a peace plan for ukraine as we near the 1st anniversary of the war. surely wish i know who times they may be, some forces that do not want peace talking to succeed, to not want the water stop anytime soon. law. what they care about is not the life and the death of the ukrainian people and nor the increasing damage to europe. they probably have bigger strategic goals than ukraine. this war can't go on any longer . but those are and diplomatic editor james phase has been following developments and munich that meeting between secretary blinkin and wine ye, the talk chinese foreign policy official was interesting and important, but it was brief and it was pretty tense. i don't think it in any way of puts china
12:21 am
and the u. s. back old. much better footing and certainly a new date has not been set for a proper summit between the 2. remember secretary blinking was about to go to beijing when that spy balloon was shot down over a north american ass space. no new date has been set up for that meeting up. perhaps more important in terms of, of things that of emerged during the summer. because the chinese say they've got some sort of piece plan from ukraine now. european and us officials rather skeptical about that. or they say they're not really going to think that's an important development. so they see the details of the chinese suggesting the details might come out in the coming days as we approach the anniversary at the end of next week, the one year anniversary. much of the activity here at the mean security conference as it had been about the war new credit and that one year anniversary. very keen, i think both the u. s. and the europeans to get everyone on the same page. still
12:22 am
keep all these allies together and stop any cracks. emerging in the, the alliance. china maintains it's neutral, in terms of whiny crane, have called for dialogue and the conflicts. now the possibility of a peace plan. and it's also, we have found it no limits, friendship with moscow that only fatal to providing technology to russia's military, benefiting from the kind crisis, particularly when it comes to the import seth, russian, gas and oil. katrina, you reports now from beijing. china and russia may not officially be allies, but they increasingly appear to be marching in step one, you want to be asian of ukraine. agent continues to count its partnership with moscow as one without limits. enjoyed military drills like this one has become commonplace. drug wise about china, russia relations have maintained a healthy and stable momentum of development corporation in various fields and
12:23 am
indecent cod, fruitful results. one of those fruitful results is a potential upcoming trip by president. she didn't ping to moscow in spring. the chinese leader help let me put in as a close friend and the to have met in person 40 times, including in beijing days before russia attached to ukraine in 2022. but there's more to this than just friendship. western sanctions have prompted trade between russia and china to saw, especially in energy moscow as beijing lodge, a supply of oil and a major supply of pipes and liquefied natural gas. and china really is a big winner in terms of having more access to cheaper now. russian gas and russian oil, there's also a realization in beijing because it doesn't really have the upper hand. now in terms of, you know, a source for of investment for russia, that it can more or less call the shots. despite providing moto with significant economic support,
12:24 am
beijing insists it's neutral when it comes to the war and ukraine. it's called on the 2 sides to engage in peace talks. but us researchers say chinese state or firms are providing russia with sensitive technologies to equip it's war machine. the data explicitly says that these parts are being sent to russia for the use of the s 400 and emma system helicopter. so we know that they're very clearly stated for that use. we also understand that in general this bilateral trade is growing. and so we believe that there might be some, some connections in both china's effort to bolster its military capacity, as well as russia's efforts of also military capacity with chinese goes in parts of aging calls. these claims hyped up fiction and says it's ties with moscow are based on non computation. they do refusal to condemn russia. invasion of ukraine has frustrated western attempts to isolate the country. extra say, international focus on the wall has proved useful for china providing an ongoing
12:25 am
destruction from its own military activities in the south china sea and around high wrong katrina you out 0 agent will the you the g 7 and australia of agreed to cap the price of russian crude oil is $1.00 is refined products like diesel. so wash and crude now sells a discount compared to global benchmarks. before the invasion of ukraine, nearly half of all of its oil exports went to the opinion. as western nations and post sanctions and restrictions russian oil has poured east. by the end of 2020 to the e. u was buying just over a quarter of russian supplies. the u. k. in the united states, which had taken in 9 percent, quit buying it entirely to fill a void. russia turned to asia, offering steep oil discounts. china was an eager buyer, and its share of russian or supplies grew from 2125 percent. but most notable has been india. it went from importing nearly nothing from russia to buying
12:26 am
a record amount in december $33.00 times as much as the year before, with an average of $1200000.00 barrels a day. russia is now india's biggest supplier of oil. and the analysis is that that is only going to increase 0 pain countries work to reduce their reliance on russian gas they've turned to energy produces from the united states. the white house is back efforts to expand exports, but that's also anchoring climax, this white counterparts from washington in the united states that was paying for consumers that the pumps but joy for the big energy companies. weston sanctions put an end to russian exports. and because of the consequent global oil shortage, the price of gas doubled. the profits of u. s. energy companies, sword as they cashed in by ramping up production. have you noticed big oil just reported as prophecy? record profit?
12:27 am
last year they made $200000000000.00 in the midst of a global energy crisis. i think it's outrageous by an administration ease the shortage, by tapping into the strategic petroleum reserves. the energy industry had already made its move to increase production. the day off to the invasion began lobby a sent a letter to the white house in order to increase production and export to the energy industry. aust, will major concessions. these include the, the right to draw on federal lands, swift approval for export licenses, and a green light with some pending pipeline projects. within days, most of these concessions were granted from experts caution. again, seeing these concessions merely as a surrender to the interest of big oil pointing out they'll also national strategic issues at stake. some of these things sure may have been motivated by the industry,
12:28 am
but a lot of these are just strategic considerations on a national level as well. particularly with regard to energy supplies to europe, things of that nature. there are, there are multiple moving parts here. one of these moving parts is the u. s. liquefied natural gas, or l n. g industry. the us only began producing l n g 6 years ago, but it's already a leading export alongside giant cutter and austria. environmentalists say that comes at a price to the vironment, while l n g has been promoted as a bridge fuel that burns cleaner than oil. they insist the amounts of methane produce during the fracking process pose as great a threat as the production and use of fossil fuels. l n, g exports will swell the already handsome profits of us energy companies. these can and will be quantified. but the human cost of the wall that contributed to these profits is beyond measure as its impact on what the us
12:29 am
administration called its green policy to combat climate change. my kinda, i'll just era washington. your thing is our life and i can still add, kenya is calling for free trade and an end to the conflict in the democratic republic of congo. we'll have our reports from the african union. sandy's also taking a look at pickable is pickable or the well that fastest growing sports. ah ha, the weather is lovely across southern pacific blue skies. clear weather here all the way right across the mediterranean. pushing across into spain and portugal further north where we have got to wear the systems rolling across our area of high fresh

12:35 am
a solid fuel rocket that takes less time to prepare. years of diplomacy, sanctions, and international cynthia have done little the slow progress hurry, full set al jazeera residents of the io town of east palestine, a demanding answers after a freight train carrying hazardous chemicals derailed nearly 2 weeks ago. the bite and administration is responding with disaster relief, but is also facing criticism for not declaring a state of emergency. former president donald trump has been accused of politicizing the event he set to visit the town next week, as he continues of his campaigning for office. all the freight train owned and operated by norfolk southern derail and east palestine. earlier this month, carrying hazardous chemicals, some of which leaked into the air, water and soil authorities carried out a control explosion to burn off. some of the chemicals nearby residents were evacuated. the 2 chemicals of greatest concern are highly flammable,
12:36 am
vinyl chloride, which can cause headaches and also a rare form of liver cancer and a beautiful ac relate which has been linked to restore it tree ailments. while federal agencies say the town's war to supply an air, a clear 3 and a half 1000 fish have died in nearby creeks and some residents of reported headaches for spiritual problems in dizziness or courtney miller is an activist and resident of east palestine ohio. she joins us live visor from pittsburgh. thank you for taking the time to speak to us. and can i ask why you have chosen not to return to east palestine, though i think the official guidance is that people can go back to homes. they did say that people can go back to their homes, however, they did air test and they did a water test. they're saying that there's nothing wrong. but the problem is,
12:37 am
is they know that there are dioxin and you can't find what you're not looking for the dioxin that are in the water and in the air, they are causing rashes on people, people are coughing up, blood people are getting sick, and these dioxin can you take like infants like on more children because they're just not looking for it? they're not looking for it. so obviously the air is clear and the water is fine. but then why are all the fish dying? why are all the animals dying? why are the people not in has mass? what we had coven 19 come in and we had a curfew. it was a 10 pm curfew that everyone out to be in their houses. everyone had to wear mass, yet they low this train up and they have all of these chemicals in the air because it was a controlled burn. so the said had it exploded on its own,
12:38 am
it would have gone outwards instead of upwards. and there could have been shrapnel gong everywhere. they just told people to go in their houses. they didn't, they didn't give us any warning. they told us just a couple days later that we could come back after those who could evacuate those who couldn't evacuate their people that are getting sick and animals that are dying . and they told us that sima would come in then they wouldn't come in and we just keep getting runaround. nobody is giving us any information. and then the 1st question can, i could ask you, then you mentioned just to just to understand this, because 1st you have the trained derailment. and then authorities carried out to controlled explosion that was meant to neutralize the effect of these chemicals. yet this so much that people don't know though it is remarkable that they've been,
12:39 am
