in order to and i quote weaken the russian state it's all in the leaked papers the foreign and commonwealth office is looking for an implementor or consortium to scope design deliver and evaluate a program of interventions that will enhance the skills and capacity of russian journalists this project will support a wider regional her majesty's government program to connor the russian government's narrative and domination of the media and information space so there's even more there since what these papers paint is a picture of the british government perverting independent media twisting their reporting to suit britain's needs and wants targeting those with we call will or opinions the young and using them to subvert older generations get them to turn on the kremlin or on russian values. by capitalizing on close family ties

a week in advance and the knowledge that the system was not prepared for more than a decade electric reliability council of texas and to fail to take any preemptive action that could have averted the crisis and were wholly unprepared to deal with the crisis at hand. but even those who do have access to heat and power in the area are asking serious questions now of providers. i am pretty much $9.00 a kilowatt electricity but i was very conservative with my electricity so i had no idea exactly why but it ily so much it's that only going that i absolutely cannot afford it i'm not exactly sure you know who can go back to the point where some people have totally turned up their power because they can't of course not they can't afford it it's a basic necessity for a living do you think to tell it he should now cast doubt. meanwhile more than

$4000000.00 power outages have also been reported as the storm picked this but estimated $18000000000.00 worth of damage across the region $15000000.00 people have reportedly had disruptions to their water supply to all those 70 have died across the u.s. from the unusually cold conditions and the governor of texas has pledged to bring the spiraling energy bills under control if you can we are moving quickly to alleviate this problem and we'll continue to work collaboratively throughout this week and solutions to help texas families and ensure they do not get stuck with skyrocketing energy bills are the politicians are also stepping in to help to congresswoman sheila jackson lee delivered pizza and water to residents and who stand a killer scott amos again told us ordinary people shouldn't be picking up the tab for the failures of government and power companies to prepare for such disasters. of course this is a natural disaster for texas because they don't have the infrastructure and they're

not ready and prepared for this type of thing but again why should the working class where the middle class have to pay for that this needs to be deregulated because the government needs to step in there is no way they should be monopolized so that they can charge whatever it is that they want to everyone as far as the employer structure and preparing 'd they have time they've known i have but they chose not to invest in it and so this is what happens is the perfect storm. or another telling oprah thing is how the sputnik very covert job alone to her moscow and ahead of the performance of the bolshoi theater she told us just why she did it. since i am in moscow to work at the bolshoi theater i had an opportunity to take this putting the shot and took it in europe's put think b. is considered one of the most effective it is amazing that russia made its vaccine available to whoever wants to get it as

a foreigner i had the opportunity to get inoculated for free many people even asked me whether they can come to russia and get vaccinated it went well for me i didn't experience any side effects. it comes as the vaccine helped bring down the number of daily new covert cases here in russia and on saturday a 3rd national shop was registered to show jewel for distribution next month at a maria keurig and compared the situation with the e.u. and hope sputnik 3 will get to that blog soon to. ground the game when it comes to europe it is a huge problem that it is failing to vaccinate all citizens as quickly as possible it hampers their return to work however here in moscow everything is up and running on quite a regular basis shops theaters everything is open we musicians feel shocks to have all the theatres as well as other cultural facilities closed i can't understand why there is the slowdown in europe mightily in france are very preoccupied the area

afraid that it will complicate a post covert recovery i'm in favor of sending sputnik the supplies to europe and elsewhere if it helps overcome the problem of vaccine shortages and allows everyone to get vaccinated. more than a 100 maffia members including top crime bosses illegally obtain social security payments in sicily with more than a 1000000 euro the palermo financial police than saying 145 mobsters and their relatives some belonging to the tories clans like the. face fraud charges they're accused of stealing 1200000 euros since 2019. so you see that it's been part of a very important investigation that we conducted together with the prosecutor's office of palermo which provided us with a list of 1400 individuals charged with mafia type crimes this operation reaffirms that the mafia does not feel any remorse illegally cashed in the financial benefits

intended for citizens in need. well we're not surprised to hear the locals they're outraged by the government watchdogs also failed to do their job. and i would have a go no scarlet is a true shame a scandal the people who live in miserable conditions are stripped of what was basically their livelihoods it is a disgrace for the whole nation. regarding accident it's a disgrace there are people who are in great need of financial aid but they fail to receive it for some reason and then you find out that the math here has managed to obtain this instance or benefits it happens because there are no checks in place. this checks have to be carried out before payments in order to avoid this illegal dispersement this check should have been done when this request for the citizenship benefit were process or perhaps it would have taken a few months but it would have prevented the payments from ended up in the wrong hands. it's

oppressive be more humble well let me sum this up for you real quick just quit acting like a jerk would jump and generally speaking it's great advice to follow while navigating through life all together but when the public found out some weren't happy that all those negative traits had been dumped on one particular race sadly the irony of confronting racism by telling you to be less of your skin color will be lost on many i don't know about you but i can do in coca-cola products any more emerging cook cola telling employees to be less black or be less jewish is the except to bill and unethical to tell anyone to be less of their race religion ethnicity 6 you orientation it's the drug i'm ashamed to have coca-cola on my resume however some users pushed back and hailed coca-cola of its efforts they should have changed this to talk specifically about whiteness and not be less white

but good in coca-cola for doing this work. only bigots sematic coca-cola for the less whites training that the only ones who won't even examine what else is there because they sent to themselves in white the pity proving the training's very premise the majority of that content looks to be on point it's that last slight which is an issue because of the rigidity of corporate america coca-cola is just the latest in a host of companies to help on the world bandwagon from changing profile pictures to show support for the black lives matter movement to rebranding the whole product lines deemed to be well behind the times.

all the human rights abuses so frederick kohl berger works as a guard in a concentration camp near hamburg despite having already been prosecuted in the us germany has said it will not charge him claiming a lack of evidence the u.s. judge's decision was partly due to the fact that he still receives a wartime service pension berger said that he was forced to work at that camp and described the ruling is ridiculous the camp he worked out was set up in 1988 and operated till 945 more than 100000 prisoners were held there mainly from the u.s.s.r. and poland almost half of the detainees died from after rector of the simon wait until center in jerusalem gave reaction to the case to my colleague jacqueline. anyone who assisted nazi germany says the forces dirt right and persecuting people who are categorized as enemies of the rights deserve to be tried if so you have to

understand the changes that were made in german press that you should see. about 12 years ago the germans decided that anyone who had served in a death camp let me see a concentration camp with the radisson mass murder in other words guess chambers guess koreans could be prosecuted based on a service alone and this is been the policy but to keep that he served in i ain't gonna do that description which is probably why the germans and that opening up the prosecution against him and germany of course is still paying his pension for wartime service how is that possible it will even get a pension for a service in the war germany as a special pension to people who want it during world war 2 it out unfortunately the german authorities then to distinguish between people who were for example innocent civilians who might it will get it above the attack or some other action ok if

to control the electricity while it seems the support for wind energy is falling nationwide according to a recent poll and opposition is particularly high where those wind farms are located of course people should be able to have their same when it comes to what is built where they live but we must ensure that conditions are good to expand renewable electricity production in sweden many claim that those turbines would ruin the landscape army so to back again says it will damage tourism. when it's not blowing. we will not have any electricity. and then the city has to come from somewhere else and then we're back in big pollutions is not a good idea with when morse adore it effects the tourist because. sailin

repeat the mistakes committed under obama. discuss these issues and more i'm joined by my guest mark allman in oxford he is the director of the crisis research institute and in budapest we have george 7 well he's a podcast or at the gavel which can be found on you tube and gentlemen crossed up rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i always appreciate it ok let's go to markers in an ox for continuity in change that's what we always look at when a new administration comes in and we see a lot of continuity and change. only on the rhetorical side of things we hear we hear that the all the biden mr asian is essentially going to back away from saudi arabia's genocidal war against yemen but he says it will. when you do support

the sovereignty of saudi arabia we we on the 1st day of the biden ministration we have troop movements from iraq into syria so that tells us what's going on here just a couple days ago nato has made it very clear that it's going to it's. troop level training level in iraq of course we have the dealing with iran the administration doesn't seem to know which direction it wants to go but certainly it is anti russia and china and that is just the top bullet points go ahead mom. you know i think the interesting thing is that during the trump years. former biden officials for obama officials often accused him on spending all his time simply trying to wipe out the legacy obama as it was the trump foreign policy and maybe today we're seeing the most sense by this trying to undo everything that trump did so that for instance although it's as you say true to say in the. in the saudi

question he is pursuing a rather ambivalent course because yes he's saying we would like to warn them and stop yes we're going to stop providing certain types of support for the war effort but on the other hand we support the saudi state but he also explicitly allowed his spokesman to say i'll only be dealing with the king of saudi arabia he's my counterpart not the crown prince and similarly he waited a month before he spoke to benjamin netanyahu in israel both the crown prince of saudi arabia and the promise of israel were very close interlocutors with don't trump so what we might be seeing is also a discredited in the electoral terms because elections coming from israel of netanyahu the americans by the new american especially hoping this a different coalition will be called without netanyahu but also perhaps more strikingly in the way by began his period of president and some of the boma did with regard to mubarak in egypt remember shortly after because president obama very demonstrably met members of the muslim brotherhood when he gave a speech in cairo university and in a sense signaled that the united states was no longer.
