now and talk with the headlines and r t hidden treasures, the secret financial dealings of hundreds of the world's richest and most powerful people are revealed in the biggest delake of offshore data at the united states itself has emerged as the leading tax haven also this i with an energy crisis looming over europe in skyrocketing gas prices, e u. member states to point the finger of blame at brussels, green politics and also russia and fury in austria, from afghan refugee rate, a 7 year old girl and his sentence and months behind bars and gave him therapy and family and friends of a young afghan football and he fell from a plane while trying to free his country voice, their grievances,

remembering under the grimace, episode of the truth and through the entire afghan nation love to he was our hero. no one can feel his place in the teen and in our house. ah, hello, they're welcome. just gone mid day. moscow. you watching archie international. now opening a pandora's box and you expose a on tax havens has shown high were some of the world's richest, still try to hide their wealth. the leak of financial data is one of the biggest in history and even reveals high worldly, to stash their cash in secretive offshore companies. on quarter gave more details to call him back. people definitely were anticipating something as big as what happened in 2016 when the pat, when the panama papers were released. but actually this one hasn't made as much

noise. the guardian sure had a click body picture of vladimir putin's face right at the front of its article, even though in the pandora papers vladimir putin was not even named. so that's a bit a bit interesting. but the investigation primarily deals with more or less obscure people. i mean, we have some examples being the king of jordan. so offshore properties, personal properties, the purchase of several theatres, by the general director of russia's channel one he was said to have been a silent partner in this operation. but he's already commented publicly that he hasn't concealed anything about his business dealings in connection to this. one higher profile mentioned though, the ukranian president vladimir zalinski in 2019 he was elected and most in large part on his platform of promising to rid the country of corruption. and ukraine is notoriously, hasn't a problem with corruption. and according to this investigation, he actually transferred 25 percent of his stake in a foreign ad in an offshore company to his personal friend who is now the top

presidential advisor. so, so far he hasn't commented on that seems a little bit shady, but no confirmations. usually when we think of tax havens. right. i mean, you think of maybe a financial center like hong kong or some sort of obscure caribbean island. but the pandora paper is actually paint a very different picture. they're showing that they, they actually revealed that south dakota has become the new hot spot for tens of millions of dollars that used to be in offshore accounts in the caribbean and europe. and this is despite of jo biden's promise to no combat corruption. earlier this year to day i'm issued a national security study memorandum of the fight against corruption to establish cumbersome corruption as a core use national security interest. the united states will lead by example. and in partnership with allies, civil society and in the pro, with sex as to fire, this courage of corruption in fact, delaware, whereat mister biden, hales from i've got some pretty good. the tax breaks, the company's them they. so if his big platform is to deal with tax evasion,

as many leaders do, where are the americans on that list? well, that's a good question. they're basically not there. i mean, we hear report after report, obviously about like a lot of american businessman and big corporal corporate owners of 8 avoiding taxes . and yet this report for some reason only mentions a couple of very obscure american billionaires that i personally never heard of. and so, yeah, the, the big question is, you know, where are all the big american names? i mean, what about the richest man in the world? jeff bezos, his company, amazon paid 0 dollars and 0 cents and federal income tax. not just in 2020, but also in 20182017 you'll on must paid also 0 dollars and 0 cents and federal income tax. in 2018 donald trump paid $750.00 back in 2017. so it seems a bit fishy, that there are, there might be nothing important our a value to mention about these elf sure assets. now we also did hear from whistleblower, edward snowden. he let out

a tweet about the report on this leak. so let's take alice, the humorous side of this very serious story is that even after 2 apocalyptic offshore finance law firm leaks, those industries are still compiling vast databases of ruin and still secure them with a posted note mark, do not leak hats off to the source this is just the beginning of these sir reports and these leaks about these pandora papers. more of them are promised for the coming weeks. so we're gonna have to keep an eye out for them. or the investigation, also name somebody, it says is a former cleaner. first slide image to tin and also the mother of one have his children. svetlana could have a nor geek is alleged to be the owner of a monaco apartment bought via an offshore company. and the relationship with the russian president has never been confirmed. a friend of the president also appears in the papers, although not mister putin, himself, for the papers also reveal that the u. s. state of south dakota has emerged as a new destination for wealthy people to avoid tax or though experts we spoke to say

that they are not surprised. the very thing that the united states criticized switzerland in the past whore it is now doing the famous numbered account look, the real lesson here is if you will allow the distribution of wealth and income to be as only equal as it now is in the world. to day you create the incentive and the means for those that the top to continue to accumulate from one generation to another. there is an amazing tax evasion taking place around the world. and there's also a lot of unaccounted, unaccountable capital sloshing around the world. you know, using various off shore havens and, and governments tolerate this and, and banks make a lot of money off this. and the u. s. by the way, i is itself a major tax haven. it's

a incorporation laws are among the easiest in the world. so the u. s. is actually our prime participant, and this kind of a really crazy, monstrous, no tax avoidance. now, europe is on the brink of an energy crisis. is prices continue to hit record highs . one, gym and electricity purchase. the reason shut down its power plant simply because there was no more coal and with when to looming, there are also shortages of gas across the year. with more now on hand, the block is managing the crunches shown at kapinsky. there is a lot of finger pointing going on as the block faces this unprecedented energy crisis. that winter crunch is looming and according to some, this is a problem that has been years in the making. let's have a look at some of the main issues across europe at the moment. and we'll start here

in france, where there has been a price increase this month of 12.6 percent in gas tariffs that follows several months of other rises. the prime minister shall cast excess, they will not be a freeze and they will not be any more increases. but of course, that doesn't mitigate the months of increases that people have already seen on their household bills. then in spain, where price is they have tripled in the last year. i mean, we know that the spanish government is made emergency measures to try and mitigate the worst impact on the poor. but small business unions are just saying, this is an impossible situation coming after the cobit crisis. businesses just cannot take any more. and then in italy, prices a sector. so by 40 percent, italian government is announced to package over 3000000000 euros to try and aid that. and then in germany, we also heard last week that one,

the power plants had to completely shut up shop. and it's not the 1st time at all to do the same a number of times in september. why? well, because it couldn't get enough co. this crisis when it comes to natural gas, has pushed more people towards buying coal, depleting those stocks as well. so it seems like this is a double whammy. so what's behind this looming catastrophe? well, the you cannot agree on that, but some member states see that this is a problem that he was cause itself because it's pushed too fast too quickly to move to greener energy and at the same time as moved away from fossil fuels. and essentially what it done is, is last the entire book exposed in the g price is currently soaring across the u and putting unprecedented pressure on both energy companies and all our citizens. when designing energy and climate policies, we have to ensure their social acceptability. otherwise we risk their failure. well, the e you flatly deny is this it with jackson. it says actually this crisis shows that

the problem is there is too much dependence in the you all know fossil fuels. and the reality is that the only way to mitigate crises like this in the future is to move harder and faster towards green energy instead of being paralyzed, those slowing things down because of the price hike. now, in the energy sector, we should speed things up in the transition to renewable energy. so the affordable renewable energy becomes available for everyone was the e. u is scratching its head over what to do. it's also looking potentially for a scapegoat. and some have suggested that russia is to blame for this crisis, saying that it is holding back on natural gas reserves. russia says that's not the case. in fact, russia says it's willing to step up to the hour of need of it's you repeat neighbors and increase the supplies of gas to meet those needs. those demands. but what needs to happen for that to take place is the certification of the nord stream

to pipe. this is a pipe that was completed last month and would see natural gas be able to be delivered directly to germany. but before that can happen, that certification needs to take place. that is something that you find out. some illnesses are likely to discuss this week as they meet to discuss this entire crisis. but the idea that you finance ministers are discussing bread and butter subjects like energy bills and how people are going to pay them really gives you a sense of how this crisis is. and as they scratching their heads, looking for a solution, there are tens of millions of households who are concerned about this winter is going to bring the difficult choices that they will have to make in detail the heat that homes or feed their families all the while it is wondering how it will keep the light. so on this outrage, what he's seen is

a lenient sentence for an afghan teenager, he sexually abused the 7 year old austrian go. now spend just 10 months behind bars . i'm receive therapy after enticing the child into the basement of an apartment block and assaulting her. ah what we discussed the incident and have justice is handed down with a panel of guest. most people seeing it's far too lenient because the guy, even if you spend 10 months in behind bars, he's a huge danger for the public. he has a lot of problems and they cancel the car to solve was in 10 months behind the bar

. they said, and he will get psychological treatment after that, she will get it, but he will be at lodge when he's all told to prison. and i don't saying he will just be cured because he has a few hours, was a cycle therapist, sexual assault and abuse, are not excusable. there has to be better prevention, they have to be the status of education in school, but off grownups as well. and i think punishment is wrong way but. 1 punishment alone doesn't test. so we have to have a more holistic attempt and we really have to prevent that. these cases happen again with a similar crime. did occur in austria in june when 3 afghan asylum seekers raped and killed a 13 year old girl despite their immediate rest. one of the suspects did manage to escape austria and sneak into the k on a date of refugees under a fake name where he claimed asylum. and as another wave of afghans arrived and off

fear, the chancellor sebastian curse is taking a tough stance on crimes committed by migrants. authorities have also said that they will forcibly support those who request these requests for silent fail. according to un data for 2020 austria does have more than 40000 afghan refugees. the 2nd biggest number after germany, we asked our panel about the issue of violence by refugees taught at general, probably a problem. it's especially a byron problem. it's also the sort of people that come, it's not the poor starving rural people coming, but it's people with some cache from the cities. they're mostly cummins asylum seekers here. and they often are in, in crimes and petty crimes in our own countries. if you look at the case of migration, 1st of all, if we don't ask the natal states for example, we don't conduct and was like enough german or like in syria,

people wouldn't have to leave their countries if people come and live in our. busy countries of course they have to have a good education if we take them and then we have to give them the possibility to work. and of course. busy we have as well, if people can't traumatized from wall. oh, countries where there's law there that let us political oppression. we have to give them some kind of therapy as well. it's not enough just to give them some money and say others integration program nice to come. well come, they should really be brought into the middle of society. and that's a long way to go. you see these people, they are 5 to 10 times as many crimes, specially crimes related to women as the average australian citizen. the problem is not so easy to handle. it's not like we shouldn't instrumental lies the case to say it's just the afghan people,

all the migrants. i think we should go deeper. one of the greenest at the sight of the evacuation from afghanistan, it's when a young football a fell from a plane while trying to flee. he was seen as one of the countries brightest sporting talents, and a special tournament being held in his memory. ah and worry was one of many acting. he's trying to flee the country as the plane deigned altitude, he fell to his death. ah, but his lackey was more than a brother to me. we train together for the last 4 years. god bless him. no one can feel his place in the team and in our house halem i was kid, i'm wearing belong to zaki. but it's mine. now. he was a better footballer than me. we even called him messy. the entire afghan nation

loved him. he was our hero. ah, b with zaki was one of our best players, a wonderful body, and a strong forward on his team. today they're playing with outsider and we can feel the difference. in london, my son, zachary was a national player, a very talented boy. but i never came here before this my 1st time and he is not with us today. i miss him so much. oh, me. while he doesn't says his presence in afghanistan is by telling me what the book is calling a looming social and economic crisis in the country. that is a deadly explosion in couple kill several painfully. the funeral will have the latest from the capital to soft brack. ah

ah ah ah join me every 1st bit on the alec salmon? sure. well i'll be speaking to guess from the world of politics, sport business,

i'm sure business. i'll see you then. ah ah. hello again i from today the u. k. government is deploying military personnel across the country to help ease the fuel crisis. petro supplies do remain tight with many stations running out, and also angry drivers, forming huge keys there. so let's get latest now across to london, to speak with our correspond there. sherry edwards, dash the ag, good morning t shadi am the army has been brought in from today. what is the situation like in the u. k. at the moment, and would you say that things are improving? well, put it this way as day. 10 now of the petrol crisis situation and the united kingdom

is still seeing many cars backed up outside of petrol stations. people waiting hours to fill up that tanks and even the public transportation is being diverted away to avoid all of this gridlock. things have gotten so bad now that the minute tree has now been deployed and dropped it in to try and get the fuel to the petrol stations. now it all comes off the days of the government arming and oring whether or not the government thought that the army was really needed to help alleviate this a crisis. obviously, it's finally conceded, but still argues that the country is stabilizing, and the petro situation is getting better, i think, is also really important. we can actually call in the military at a time like this full, that extra support to give that confidence and have this so. so as a misha, that's there as a precaution, because as i say, the situation is stabilizing. no one's going to pretend his completely back to

normal. i wish it was, but it is. it's getting it that way. so the government says that this shortage is easing the problem is getting better, the prime minister also reiterating cited job. it's comments just that, that the, all the being deployed is simply a precautionary measures now around $200.00 military personnel getting involved in this operation. will that trying to focus on is london on the southeast region? they argue that these, all the west affected. in fact, the petro association says that the london, in particular, the capital situation is only getting worse. in fact, 22 percent of all petrol pumps in the capital, a pretty much running on empty, and the pressure association doesn't believe this. army operation will be nearly enough to get all of the fuel back into the stations and get this supply shorted under control for myself. personally, i'm a little bit worried because in my journey on the way to work this morning,

my call was flashing red at me, meaning i need to get to a petrol station as soon as possible. but of course, i'm not the only one a tool, millions of people are now affected. in fact, it's such a hot topic that discussing the pectoral situation is as common as discussing the weather here in the united kingdom, which goes to show just how many people affected, particularly those people working at the petrol pump stations. if you're going to feel a 6 or 7 narrative, you're very lucky. always peaks and troughs. one minute, one day you're, you're fluffy and you'd be taking 3 times as much as you normally do. next i, you run a fuel and you're sitting there looking for each other and things like some which isn't true. it just doesn't get sold because nobody comes in days. have also be defined by a bit of a blame game on the one hand gentleness of being attacked, saying that the media is really reporting on

a big headlines and then on the individual level as well. people pointing the finger of blame directly at those people panic, buying out all of this pattern. but can jonas be blame for simply reporting the news? no. can the public really be blame for simply buying depleting? result is neither seems remotely irrational, especially at the crocks. all of this is the very fact that a 100 a 1000 laurie drive is how now has now had a mass exodus leaving the united kingdom. there are many reasons for that, particularly things like breakfast with these laurie drive is staying in the country that they are from. so this seems to be a direct result of numerous things, particularly, like breck said, and it doesn't seem that it's going to be a quick fix for the united kingdom. doesn't does it? okay, thanks. a shadow that was shabby, edward stashed you with the latest on the fuel crisis. new k come to live that from london. i overnight, several paperwork killed in

a blast. a couple 2nd biggest mosque. taliban says he has detained 3 people allegedly responsible. meanwhile, these foreign policy chief towson says blog needs a presence in afghanistan to prevent what it phase is a looming social collapse. afghanistan is experiencing a serious humanitarian crisis, and a socio economic collapse is looming, which would be dangerous for afghans to region and international security. so the question is on, if we should have a minimal e u presence on which all member states agree, but when and how we're working on possible options, taking into account the security situation. just to bring home, how dire the situation here in afghanistan, east millions of people here, especially in kabul, heat their homes in the harsh winter months with, with plastic. the entire city stinks of burn plastic in the winter months because wood is precious. oil is expensive. people here have no money to pay for food for

food, never mind healthcare, all of materials to burn, to heat their homes with. and the situation is that at wall a, the ease coming in international 8th, much of it, many countries are they boy, age organizations are making it conditional. so they're saying either you meet these obligations, you meet these criteria. you have women in government, we won't give you 8 and given how desperate the humanitarian situation here is that millions on the verge of hunger and of, of the cold of freezing at the taliban has said that essentially these conditional aid office attached about to a black men and that they won't be pressure you out my advice to the world neighbors, muslims, and particularly afghans is to leave of ganeth unto afghans. the world cannot build of canister no way. we have reached our goal brothers,

but it requires its protection. it is not the end, the world is still plotting against us. the world still tries to impose governments on us under this or that name. they wish for destruction, paralysis and damage of these law, mac emerett of, of gaston, ball aid has been coming into afghanistan. these the bare minimum needed to stave off calamity for another few weeks, perhaps another few months because the war here he's continuing united states and its allies may have withdrawn at me. no longer be them fighting the taliban. but the taliban is at war with isis. it is a war that is intensifying all over the country. we see evidence of that every day . the explosion on sunday it's cobbled 2nd biggest mosque is just the latest estimate that even the most secure sites are a vulnerable we saw in the aftermath of that raise. juvenile rates carried out by the taliban all over the capital capital where they were hunting down. i says sales,

isis, k, operative in other areas of the country. we have seen dr. birds. we have seen bombings, attacks carried out by isis against the taliban. and the, the thing here is us, aside from causing all the, the suffering amongst the civilian population. there is also the foreign policy consideration for, for western nations, the taliban, as the devil. they know the devil that they can work with. if reluctantly, i sis may use the humanitarian crisis here in afghanistan. if the taliban is unable to deliver, to recruit more desperate people, and that is what perhaps europe and the united states are essentially trying to avoid. gast here, there in couple. now, algeria has closed its air space to french military plains is arrive over these is between the countries intensifies and present. micron seems with added fuel to the fire t,

with his comments on the out cheering more of independence that was fought against france. was there an algeria nation before french colonization? fast to question algeria, post 19. 62 is built on a memorial rent that declares france the whole problem attention intensified last week in france for chase. the number of these is it grounds to citizens of several countries including ouch area, and response, the north african nation recalled. it's ambassador to paris on saturday. what, according to the french president, algeria has totally rewritten this official history based on high, truthful his country. now we discussed this with these stories and all figured holland, and he does say that president micron. she'd be more careful with what he says. he has no right to make those comments publicly. he should keep those ideas to himself . it would be as if the leadership and algeria would say that frances, ultimately dominated by a clique of billionaires in that democracy in france is

a kinder, shall i think that that would be inappropriate comment. but i don't think it would necessarily be appropriate for the algerian leadership to make such a comment. mr. microphone, obviously, as noted as facing a very difficult reelection campaign, he obviously feels that there is a premium and i value to be gained by whipping up anti algerian. sentiment since algerians comprise a significant portion of the immigrant population in france, the french establishment is still exploiting africa. algeria to its credit, has tried to break away from this exploiter to system. and that's one of the reasons why mr. moore chrome, back by the french establishment, is now attacking algeria with fennel. happen, job, sedate sat for this? are you watching out international ice, the happy come play more from us in 30 ah,

i mean, ah, i'm african redundancy. we're going underground. digging up the stories buried by the so called mainstream media coming up with the show hot on the heels of an anti jeremy colbin labor leaders conference comes boris johnson's conservative party conference. this week, the tories a leading and polls just why an energy crisis. one of the highest per capita deaf 2 covered responses and welfare got to the poorest. we follow the money and 24 hours ahead of lawrence johnson's defense secretary speech at the dory conference and following defeat in afghanistan is the u. k. importing taliban style attacks.
