a to invite everybody's lloyd, that wasn't a glitch. that was the feature that the people who designed the internet is always got in. as a feature headlines here, what are tea and europeans brace for storing winter gas bills. while brushes president says record prices are partially down to failed policies and the european union to try to smear perry is in miss herring. just, we're just home school boys in school in the street become us parents face and f b. i crack down for speaking out against mosque wearing and that of the critical race theory. also in the program, a new york ethics commission probes its own decision to allow former governor andrew cuomo to rake in $5000000.00 for his book about the pandemic. though on the
4:01 am
program we hear from the daughter of a care home coven victim, in that state. his whole entire investigation feels like one big show to me. are family members. a for us we the nursing home with families there, they're dead. they're not coming back. first is exactly, it's 20 years now since the us coalition invaded afghanistan with the country now and meltdown. families are resorting to drastic measures. when your stomach is empty, you can't think about the dark side. so i'm forced to sell a few of my kids to feed others. there's no option left with plenty of headlines for you today. and this goes a program. welcome to it on rural research. europe's energy markets all reeling from extreme price volatility with natural gas. now, edging back from an old time record, and households though,
4:02 am
are already feeling the pinch just ahead of the winter season. ah mm. so russia is europe's biggest gas supplier, and president putin has said the current shortage is partly down to the usa and mistakes. he accused brussels of short sightedness for insisting on a switch from long tongue gas contracts to spot trading. let's try to understand
4:03 am
exactly what that means. neil hobby discussed this issue with ortiz eco to donald vladimir putin talk to russia's energy minister, and basically gave very clear instruction as to the country's actions and how russia will navigate this. well, this market crisis, because as of now you've seen the gas prices on the market and well as of now again, it looks like the winter is going to be very, very costly to the end of the line. european consume him. so the russian president, what he did, he called on the minister to seed through that russia remains a loyal partner and doesn't make things any more difficult and pod than they already are. and that the gas prom rushes will national gas export in company that gas from remains a faithful partner as well and follows the contractual obligations strictly prevalent, desperately. as today she has prom believes that it would be more profitable for it to pay a fine to ukraine and increase the gas volume pumping through the new systems. but
4:04 am
there's no need for that. there's more pressure in the pipe, less c o 2 emissions into the atmosphere. everything turns out cheaper and at $3000000000.00 a year, it is necessary to fully comply with the contractual obligations for the transit of gas through ukraine. although it is more profitable to sell it on the exchange, but there is no need to put anyone in a difficult position, including ukraine despite the difficulties in relations. second, there's no need to undermine gas prompts confidence is an absolute reliable partner in all respects. so i think maybe understandably, with gas prices rocketing up, some people in the west, the pointing fingers at russia and, and basically suggestion is that they're exploiting as it's getting colder. and that price gouging the, that the trying to just milk, as for will they can get what to put enough to sever the thing is i, the european lawmakers might have shot themselves in the foot hair. and well, conceptually, nuclear, the wallets of the end of the line,
4:05 am
consumers of ordinary europeans. so here's, here's the thing about natural gas. it's not oil. you can just, you know, get it one time stored in a barrel until you need it. and then you will access it. no, it doesn't work like that is to was be to speak to self speculative demand and excitement in europe. you propose stock trading. it can be done, but of course this can and should be done not in a spot in europe, but on an exchange in st. petersburg. but in general, exchange trading is not very effective because it carries a lot of risks. is not a watch shorts and ties or a car, or even oil that can be produced and stored anywhere gas is not sold like that on the market. so what the european lawmakers came up with, they decided that they would switch from contractual from contractual trade when they receive a gas steadily throughout the year. at the current market price, they decided that they would be buying the gas of the market and they would be, would be doing so in the summer when the demand is very low. so it's essentially
4:06 am
dirt cheap, but they would only ask for the, for gas in physical, you're physically receive it in the winter when they, well, obviously need this gas, but what they didn't well add into this equation is the fact that the simple pipeline infrastructure is simply not robust enough, it is too old and dated in ukraine. so gas from, even if it wanted it simply can't squeeze this much natural gas in such a short period of time. so the nodes for him to project would have health because the infrastructure is much newer and they can put more pressure into the, into the pipes. but well, nodes dreamed who has been long opposed for political reasons, including by ukraine and poland. well, with a quote with ukraine, the irony is, well, is beyond comprehension here. so it's really unclear as to how many more steps and reciprocated russia will take and is ready to take it,
4:07 am
but have been prevented. i think at, i think we've understood that in may june, july, that with the economy i starting to recover with the ability of citizen to live with a bit. we needed more than if the european commission came out to publicly stating where we need more gas and we will lift the price of the 40 percent or market dominance. i think a gap from way to have a look at this reprice and i believe they would have to small gas in europe. and so therefore, we wouldn't be in such a dire situation today. the energy crunch has certainly exposed divisions within the u over green policies. gary and prime minister has blamed soaring costs on an over reliance on renewables saying you regulations should be changed. we spoke with german economist and publisher. i cannot this is would be perfect for. busy the
4:08 am
german and energy policy to change to a green policy, but it wouldn't suit all the other european partners because they have a completely different thoughts on germany and their energy supply. for example, the french and especially the polish want to keep the right mailing position for germany. they don't want germany to be energy sufficient or energy independent with russian gas. they would like to be to keep the hand on the energy supply for germany. so with the north screen to pipeline, the energy supply would be a would be secured. and that's why these european partners don't want educational authorities in the u. s. are asking the government to use anti tara
4:09 am
loss and involve the f, b i against parents who protest against the way that children are being taught. the national school board association sent an open letter to the biden administration. these acts of malice, violence, and threats against public school officials have increased. the classification of these heinous actions could be the equivalent to a form of domestic terrorism and hate crimes for you to dare to try to smear parents as domestics. harris just reflects just how tone death, school boards and school administrators have become about the please of parents on behalf of their children. the u. s. attorney general has stepped in writing to the f. b, i on criminal attorneys and announcing plans to combat what he called a disturbing spike and harassment, intimidation and threat, so violence against school personnel. my colleague mil harvey spoke with auntie
4:10 am
contributed lauren chin, who thinks that many of the accusations have just been blown out of proportion. the board's letter does site some specific incidents, but if you actually look at the video footage from those incidents, most of the quote violence that they cite is actually things like parents refusing to wear masks. oh, keep a com no, no, no. do you need the guardian do for about critical race theory, which is pretty much we'll be picking who, how to hate each other? how that this was at these meetings a lot of what they side as actually being domestic terrorism or violence actually is just tantamount to some harsh words being said in terms of actual violence. though i believe there's only one or 2 specific incidents that were actually led to an arrest that were mentioned in that letter. i think trying to get the f b i involved at all, frankly, just reeks of political activism. instead of actually trying to put students 1st, and i think parents are completely justified in seeing this as an attack on their rights as parents,
4:11 am
the parents aren't shutting up for now though for the same the attorney general has got a conflict of interest in this case what do they mean by that? the reason why the age is taking this letter from the school board association. so seriously is specifically because his daughter through marriage has ties to a firm that actually specializes in critical race theory, training or something akin to that. his family potentially might benefit financially from c r t actually being implemented in more and more schools throughout the country. how politicized a school life become these days seems like it's increasingly political. and there have been viral videos that have been leaked of students. sh filming their teacher is going on tirades against tromp systemic racism, america in general. we've even had teachers themselves posing to their social media accounts. i think a lot of parents have started to wake up that no, you cannot simply take for granted that in education, the public school system is the same as what was happening when we were younger. recently, dozens of parents of launch campaigns against covey restrictions on the teaching of
4:12 am
a subject. cold critical race theory has led to angry protests targeting school board members who they accuse of violating the children's rights everything. we spoke with april chapman, who was a mother to 4 children in the u. s. state of georgia. she says many parents of simply hud enough. in today's culture, it's the government think they, they, they believe what is proper and right. and what should your children should be taught? and so parents are experiencing a very difficult time trying to, in that change in their local communities as it relates to what's being caught in the government school. people are starting to wake up and they're starting to recognize that wait a minute. this is not the public education system that i am familiar with, or that i grew up in. and it's time for me to take my head of the fan and pay attention to what's going on because they don't like what's being propagated and pushed and down. frankly, it's downright indoctrination to what their children are experiencing when they go
4:13 am
to school and they're supposed to be learning. violence is never acceptable. so it, there are instances where parents are crossing the line and threats turn into physical violence. been absolutely, those incidences should be handled on the basis of their own individual merit, but that's not what we see happening here. they're taking one or 2 isolated in some instances and trying to make it seem as if parents who are be him leopold. former new york governor andrew cuomo is under yet another investigation. this time from the states public ethics commission over its own approval of his book on the pandemic. cuomo, who is missteps of blame for thousands of cobra deaths in care homes, is set to make $5000000.00. from the memoir, the daughter of one of those care home victims gave us her respond to the commission's announcement. the commission has voted to approve the retention of independent counsel to conduct inquiry into the legal and procedural operations of
4:14 am
the commission. this whole entire investigation feels like one big show to me. you know, the ethics commission already allowed homo to keep the $5100000.00 he made off of his blood money book of lies. so frankly, i don't see the point and having the ethics commission investigating sells, i want to try to be optimistic. and on its face, it's a small victory, and it's a standard browser that a lot earlier, but i'm a realist in a month. encouraged by this move, our family members a for us leaving nursing home families their, their dad, they're not coming back. so number one, he should apologize. number 2 is she give every said that he made off his book to his many, many victims, and number 3, what i hope and he will voluntarily, he should do this, but i hope he ends up in prison. what he's done, cuomo, book deal is just one of a series of scandals involving the former governor. he resigned in late august, often numerous allegations of sexual misconduct. now, earlier in the pandemic,
4:15 am
the governor was praised for his decisive action to prevent the spread of covert. but in february it emerged that new york authorities had massively under reported death to nursing homes. it's another over 9000 patients had been prematurely sent back to care facilities, leading to thousands of preventable infections and tracy albino again, things quite most lucrative book deal just to add insult to injury. in the beginning, when colbert emerged to new york, she was telling us to go out, you know, don't panic, the panic is worse than the virus. and then at the last minute, he panicked and he made really, really poor decisions. he hasn't been held accountable yet. his resignation as governor is not accountability and us nursing on families don't really want answers, but he needs to be held accountable. what he's done, he's destroyed our lives. one was book. once again, is a blood money book of lies,
4:16 am
and it was written on the graves of over $16000.00 innocent senior citizens. and it's not only reason to write a book on how you conquered a pandemic in the middle of a pandemic. but it's still right evil, actively omit jets from public health and record to make money off of a book deal to my father's death may have been an inconvenient number that he left off the report to get a $5000000.00 book deal. but to me, my father was my whole world. so i had to be in the program here on i see several russian prison officials are fired over videos or literally showing inmates being raped, tortured story unmoved in about one minute's time. ah,
4:17 am
4:18 am
oh, it's a stories here when our t clashes between school teachers and police are continuing in the greek capital. it's over a new education low. a hundreds of teachers took to the streets after the upcoming strike was declared illegal by a court gathered in front of the creek parliament and were pushed back by police with wharton. unions are up in arms over the government's new measures, which could result in hefty fines for educators who refused to have their work assess him well, today marks 20 years since the u. s. and its allies invaded afghanistan, toppling the taliban regime. and now in the wake of the west and pull out many
4:19 am
questions are still being asked not least why the taliban is also to hand over osama. bin laden was rejected by the bush administration. that, of course, led to 2 decades of war lives lost, and at the end of it all the militants. back in charge ortiz, senior correspondent, but at god's dia, reports now from kabul on the cost of this $2.00 decades, will the afghan war. and it's just shy of it's it's 20th anniversary, the, the war a vengeance that was launched by the united states as revenge for 911 and quickly morphed into something else. one of the most protracted conflicts in modern history, an exercise, and, and nation building before losing all lame and tylenol towards the end. neither the united states nor any of its allies still knew what it is that they hoped to achieve. here. the end result is that it was unanimously considered an abject failure. metalli banners is back in control. and more absolutely than it was before
4:20 am
the united states invaded afghanistan. and the question that we're hearing now in the halls of congress, in parliament's, in europe, and the press in there on television internationally is, is who the we blame. we need to consider some uncomfortable truth that we did not fully comprehend. the depth of corruption and poor leadership and nursing arrange that we did not grass a damaging effect of frequent and unexplained rotations by president ghani of his commanders. and that we fail to fully grasp why there was only so much for which and for home, many of the afghan forces would fight. this has been a 10 year, multi administration drawdown. not a 19 month or 19 day neo, these scandal is no n yet over the americans calling it been ghazi on steroids,
4:21 am
the republicans as well as ordinary americans that she, the end of the war is humiliating for america. they want someone held responsible, the biden and miss administration, as well as the pentagon. so far they have done their best to absolve themselves of all accountability for what many americans again see as the catastrophe. they argue that the fault is with many american administrations that, that preceded them. and that is ignoring the tremendous financial cost of the war. some that could have made the lives of americans and many of their allies at the taxpayers so much better and so much easier. ah ah ah
4:22 am
ah ah ah, you're the wealthiest country in the history of the world, and yet we have the highest child poverty rates of almost any country on earth. from the perspective of a civilian, there is scott evidence here on the ground in afghanistan of any of that money other making its way here. aside from half finished clinics, him and broken roots, testament to record breaking levels of corruption that, that so brilliant siphoned off into the bank accounts of corrupt officials into the pockets of private contractors. though the evidence of these billions being here is
4:23 am
in the hands of the taliban, the guns that they wield, stamped with made in america, the vehicles military vehicles left behind, industrial quantities, the town about her, of course jubilant. they have dismantled everything with the united states. built here, the human rights, the tolerance, the democratic institutions, and the matter of weeks. and they are jubilant. they have after 20 years of, and so wretched and rebellion, believe they won. mm. by virtually any measure. this war was a failure in some respects,
4:24 am
it even made things worse, from a humanitarian perspective, or a 3rd of afghans near an offer on the verge of starvation, with no hope inside the drugs manufactured and export to that of, of gustavo, kill countless youth worldwide from a geopolitical perspective, the taliban considered an international pariah since its inception is now having to be negotiated with it. i counted with even the un bob from a security perspective. yes, al qaeda either gotten a stud, may have been degraded but, but something worse has taken its place and that is isis which has bound to the challenge to afghanistan, dominance by the taliban. well, in the meantime, afghanistan's bank civil most run out of cash and people are running out of food less than 2 months since the taliban take over. but foreign aid is also in short, supply with western donors rather reluctant to deal with this new government. in
4:25 am
the meantime, aid groups of warning of a major humanitarian crisis. and i know this is not easy, but that needs to be some solution to the financial flows into afghanistan. to ensure that at least the salaries can be paid and that essential supplies, power, unable to being 2 of them can be procured. the absence of that will seriously exacerbate vulnerability for ordinary afghans. we spoke to an afghan mount, now i should say, are living in a dire poverty. he has admitted though, to the indefensible act of actually selling his own kids. he said he sold some of his kids to feed the other ones. they go up to cambridge anxious to get, had a good business and a happy life and couldn't do smaller, but then the war began. shall we migrated here? my savings were exhausted formula that some people got some aid here much, but the others did not. my pockets are empty now and i have no option left but to sell some of my kids in the war and to fight for the survival of my other kids with
4:26 am
the money i get that way we get into the human face. when your stomach is empty, you can't think about the dark side out of a g. i'm forced to sell a few of my kids to feed others. there is no option left for which on the previous government did not help me. but i hope this new one will support me. i'm not asking for support for myself alone, but for all these people living here quickly, they are all from my tribe. but in michigan, all of us refugees here are one families. i asked for financial help for everyone. i could as yoko money for senior russian prison officials have been fired in a criminal probe was been launched off the videos appeared on line, showing inmates apparently being raped and tortured. investigators have rated offices at the prison and seized computers on the other hardware. a 7 criminal cases have been opened and roger's penitentiary service has promised to punish any staff found guilty of violence against inmates. why that just about wraps up this news program for this half hour here on archie
4:27 am

4:28 am
not having a face, and i had a low expectation to life. i accepted accept the fact that i made that we had no fears. dell change pre fashion, 4 shots, different stories behind the bullets. the way of life of randy that is leading a traditionally nomadic lifestyle in the tundra is similar to a parallel reality. which shopper contrasts with the usual realities of megacity. while the men drive the hoods, women carry the weight of the household work on their shoulders, but no one would ever put housewife on this cd. it's not considered a profession or an occupation that you'd get a salary or a pension. however, in the vast expanse of russia, there is a spot where a housewife could secure a regular employment status. it's in the far north. that is just one tricky bit
