direct their programming manage that 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 of 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 among russian speakers and revoking the spirit of the baltic way we will use young russian speakers it's agents of change to influence their parents and grandparents generations and amplify and distinct you rebel tick identity through family center direct outreach events propaganda by ad land and sea a number of russian language outlets were mentioned specifically some radically adze government and whose claim to credibility has been that independents claim that will be now much harder to make if indeed they pocketed british money that came with strings attached and judging by these papers they weren't so much strings as cables we are currently delivering audience segmentation in targeting support

for 2 of russia's leading independent media outlets medusa and media zona and a range of independent investigative journalists in conjunction with data analysts at king's college london the british government allegedly adjusting the independent media's editorial and commercial strategies imagine if russia was caught a devising and directing independent media in britain the scandal would have been deafening naturally moscow ones aren't. the foreign office documents leaked to the internet reveal that the british government financial support and directly manages various informational outlets as worse created and network of influencers and russian social media there are hundreds of documents revealing the london propaganda machine we are region and waited for london's reaction maybe it is all lies the documents detail dozens of potential programs and strategies it is impossible to verify how many were brought to life how many journalists were

drafted into this propaganda offensive and how deep this corruption girls how much damage has been done what is clear is that combined with other recent revelations linking russian language media outlets to foreign governments hostile governments title independent media and independent journalist is going to spawn much more skepticism than trust. reporting here for a 2nd tell you we've requested comment from the u.k. foreign office as when they get back to us we'll let you know what they had to say in response. the family of a boy who allegedly froze to death in texas is suing power companies for $100000000.00 the new 11 year old died on tuesday at his family's mobile home he was sharing a bed with his younger brother at the time partly under several blankets desperately

trying to stay warm that home reportedly been without power for days investigators are still looking into the cause of death but the family lawsuit says the boy died of hypothermia despite having knowledge of the dial weather forecast for at least a week in advance and the knowledge that the system was not prepared for more than a decade electric reliability council of texas and entergy failed to take any preemptive action that could have averted the crisis and were wholly unprepared to deal with the crisis at hand. it's a sad tale but even those who do have access to heat and power in the area are asking no serious questions of the power providers i am pretty much space $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 that only going that i absolutely cannot afford it i'm not exactly sure you know who can bend to the point where some people have

totally turned up their power because they can't of course the not the biggest can't afford it it's a basic necessity for a living do you think utilities should not car sprout. meantime more than $4000000.00 power outages have been reported as that storm picked there's been an estimated $18000000000.00 worth of damage across the region $15000000.00 people reported disruption with their water supply to more than 70 have died across the us from the unusually cold conditions the governor of texas now pledging and to bring those spiraling energy bills we've been hearing about under control 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. the politicians are also stepping in to help to case in point congresswoman sheila jackson lee delivering pizza or water to residents of who stood a killer scored

a most against his ordinary people shouldn't be picking up the tab for the failures of governments of power companies to prepare for such disasters. of course this was a natural disaster except it's because they don't have the emperor structure and they're not ready and prepared for this type of thing but again why should the working class with the middle class have to pay for that likely to be deregulated because the government needs to step in because 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 they have time they've known but they chose not to invest the money and so this is what happened it's the perfect storm. to tell you about next to renowned italian opera singing is the sputniks the covert job while here on to moscow and ahead of a performance of the bolshoi theater she told us why she got it. you know it's with

the output of the votes you know since i am in moscow to work at the bolshoi theater i had an opportunity to take this politically shortend took it in europe's politically 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 but many people even asked me whether they can come to russia and get vaccinated it one well for me i didn't experience any side effects. well that's good to hear the vaccines helped to bring down the number of the daily new covert cases here in russia 2 and on saturday more news to tell you about a 3rd national shot was registered and showed jewel for distribution next month other maria curie again comparing the situation with the e.u. and hoping that support levy will soon be available in the block. what i'm the problem with it but you know. 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 are afraid that it will complicate the 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. one of 500 stories from italy nothing to do with kobe doe more than 100 math fear members including top crime bosses of a legally receive social security payments in sicily worth more than a 1000000 euro the palermo financial police say $145.00 mobsters other relatives some belonging to the most notorious clans now face fraud charges those accused

include the head of the mafia family and janine a lot of chela known for his a lavish lifestyle of being released from a 7 year jail term. is 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 $1400.00 individuals charged with mafia type crimes this operation reaffirms that the mafia does not feel any remorse they illegally cashed in the financial benefits intended for citizens in need locals are outraged by the scum outing the government watchdogs also failed in their view to do their job. you know whatever going north it 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 a settlement or rather to go and that's it and 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 the system should benefits it happens because there are no checks in place. for all your number of this checks have to be carried out before payments in order to avoid this a legal dispersement this check should have been done when this request for the citizenship benefit the process or perhaps it would have taken a few months but it would have prevented the payments from ended up in the wrong hands so. there's a backlash against coca-cola now after the employee revealed its training teaches the workers should be quote less white r.t. correspondent he goes down of course. club soda flavors caffeine and ton of sugar it's a well guarded secret for sure but there can't be much more to bring up an iconic coke but how can we make it even better coca-cola thought well how about we make our white employees less white but put down your stones at least for now this has

nothing to do with blackface but rather a training course for workers the video circulating on social media is from a publicly available learning series and there's not a focus of a company's curriculum better together global learning curriculum is possible learning plan to help build an inclusive workplace in the program and almost step by step guide on how to get the vice of whiteness out of you be less arrogant be less 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 both q. but i can do in coca-cola products any more emergent cook telling employees to be less black or be less jewish is the except to bill and unethical to tell anyone to be lists of their race religion if in the city 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 for 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 light 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. to eat healthy used to be all about carbs fats and proteins not anymore though racism bigotry and intolerance literally on the menu and you better watch out

residents being deported to germany for working at a nazi concentration camp in world war 2. berger's removal demonstrates the department of justice's and its law enforcement partners commitment to ensuring that the united states is not a safe haven for those who have participated in nazi crimes against humanity and all the human rights abuses frederick kohlberg of them worked as a guard at a camp near the city of hamburg despite having already been prosecuted in the us germany said it will not charge him claiming a lack of evidence the u.s. judge's decision was partly due to the fact he still receives a wartime service pension burgess said he was forced to work at the company's day and described the ruling as ridiculous the camp he worked out was set up in 1938 and operated till 945 more than 100000 prisoners were held there over the years mainly from the soviet union and poland almost half of those detainees died efraim zuroff director of the simon wiesenthal center in jerusalem gave reaction to the

case now than to my colleague jacqueline. anyone who assisted nazi germany sr the forces there right and persecuting people who are categorized as enemies of the rights and deserve to be trashed is that he didn't say whatever he wants it's irrelevant he said to class and trace those class intrusions the actual built to to persecute innocent people who the server actually decided were enemies of the regime and. as a person who served there he was a participant in the crowd at their racks and germany of course is still paying his pension for wartime service how is that possible 1st of all gets that less than accurate it with he did get a pension suit through his service in the war germany as a special pension to people who were wounded during world war 2 in 1988 the blue star cast

legs the city up and down and soar but you can't do it with the sun and you can't do it when they win so you can't base. nation's electricity on something you can't control you have to control the lid to a city. well it seems support for wind energy is falling nationwide if you go by a recent poll out opposition is particularly high it seems among people who have to live near these projects to 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 argued to expand renewable electricity production in sweden many claim that the turbines would ruin the stunning land kit landscape and any sort of excess it will damage tourism as a result 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 morris at all it effects the tourist because. sailin which is the red north of where i'm living is the biggest. recreation area in scandinavia you come to sweden because it's a. exacting place with forest and. environments and if you put do windmills all over 250 to 3 animators have which is blinking all the time like an air port. is not interesting anymore to come to these places. you choose artificial intelligence systems now temporarily blocked the world's biggest chess channel for quote harmful and dangerous content

a success indeed this was the time of endless wars will the biting ministration 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 oxford 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 biden mr asian is essentially going to back away from saudi

arabia's genocidal war against yemen but he says it will continue to support the sovereignty of saudi arabia and we we are on the 1st day of the 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. i don't 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 mark. 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 lost 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 all the it's as you.
