good luck with sailing on his word, the austrian chancellor, sebastian kurtz quits amid allegations of embezzlement and bribery plunged into darkness. the lights would go out in lebanon after the 2 of the biggest power stations in the crisis. hit country run out of fuel causing the national grid to collapse. us lawmakers demand sanctions on russia, north stream to pipeline, blaming moscow for a price of surge on europe's gas market. and that despite the figures retreating from an all time record after president putin's pledge to boot supplies in an

explosive accusation, the prime minister of molly blamed forces from a long time ally, france for training error groups in the north of the country with their arms groups trained by french offices, we have evidence of dots, and this is the situation we are currently witnessing, bali and we don't understand it. and we concentrated ah, all right, broadcasting more direct from our studios in moscow. this is our to international. and i'm sean thomas. certainly glad to have you with us. by now, the austrian chancellor, sebastian kurtz has this evening resigned and it follows a mounting fall out over corruption allegations made against both the politician and his inner circle circle parties. peter, all of it reports or hi, drama, in austria, on saturday evening, survosity and courts standing down as the austrian chancellor,

its amidst allegations that have been made against him, of having embezzled public funds, and in that money being used to pay bribes to journalists and pollsters, during his assent to power, now mister could denies all of the allegations that have been leveled against him. he stepped down from this position as chancellor, but will remain as the leader of the austrian people's party. now it looks most likely that the foreign minister of austria, alexander schellenberg, will be promoted to chancellor in the wake of sebastian court stepping down, his name has been put to the president of austria, will be up to him to decide if mister schellenberg gets the nod. to become the at the next chancellor sebastian courts and putting forwards, alexander schellenberg named said he was the right person to unite the parties in the current ruling coalition to try and keep some semblance of normalcy on going in

austria's leadership right now. now sebastian curse, as i say, as the night, all of the claims may been made against him. there was a lot of calls for him to step down from the chancellor job on friday. he decided not to do it then, but as decided saturday evening that there's no way that he can continue. my land is new beach to go. my country is more important to me than myself. what is needed now is stable conditions. i would therefore like to make room in order to resolve the stalemate, or the fact that sebastian courts will remain as the leader of the center, right. people's party of austria suggests that he does have an intention to try and clear his name and then run again to be chancellor to make a return to that top job. or what we do know so far is this what we're hearing, both from the party or sebastian courts, his party and from mister cords himself, is that the idea of him stepping down from being chancellor in no way. is that

supposed to indicate any admission of guilt or wrong doing on behalf of sebastian courts? in fact, what we do know is that he saying that he see stepping down to avoid chaos in standstill in the government now because of the position he holds and still holds ab, actually, even after he stepped down. as chancellor, mister cords has parliamentary immunity from prosecution. however, that doesn't stop investigations and we have seen the investigation into mr. cook escalating in recendes while days really, which is wednesday last week while sebastian courts was at a dinner of a you leaders. his offices in vienna were being rated by police in connection to the the charges to the allegations. certainly that have been made against him. it looks like alexander schellenberg will be the next chancellor of austria as the outgoing chancellor. sebastian courts. busy attempts to clear his name, amid allegations of bribery and corruption. we discussed these developments with

doctor hines, gartner, professor for political science at the university of vienna. he says that given the circumstances, the austrian chancellor's only option was to step down. it us any better. busy is because he came up under pressure of his party to resign. and the coalition partner to green parties that they would not to all together is in the same coalition versus chance not chancellor, because he's not qualified for his job because of all it is allegations and accusations. so either the coalition would buy a faulty part and then to people's party would not be in power at all anymore or he steps down and that people spout amazing. paula, this is sean patrick santos. i'm back. i send you a chancellor. and of course, john saw flow much on so sebastian, quick, swedish steel bullard to strengthen that back count. so he beat remained. the

strong man and alexander, showing shine faggots, are very loyal to sebastian quits. so and it might be a sebastian courts hold it clear to forty's. busy expectations, especially the, came in at eci accusations and can't, it might well be that he comes out somehow clean and armed again and, and deal with a fraud. the electrons in the problems continuing to mount for crisis had lebanon. the country has now suffered a total power outage after 2 of its biggest electricity plants ran out of fuel. the state electricity company has confirmed both plants have been offline since friday, with officials stressing it is unlikely that they will be back in operation before monday. the country plans to use army fuel reserves to power the plants, but that's not expected to occur any time soon. local journalist linda coming

hottest through the latest developments. nothing is improving. the economic situation is still spiraling downwards at the power situation of lebanon, the fuel crisis keeps getting worse. and now it's true that hughes in front of gas stations have significantly decreased, but now with a shortage of fuel that we are facing nowadays, this is quite, i mean, it could, it could resume. i mean, those cues in front of gas stations could definitely resume at any moment. this is what every single citizen in this country is ferrying. but it even worse than this power outages are looming in the rise. and we're talking about a complete blackouts in the country. we know that some villages in lebanon have completely plunged into total darkness with no electricity at all, not even one hour. some of them don't even have access to generators. now it's important to note that with the economic crisis, a lot of people cannot afford generator any more. i'm one of the lucky ones here

who has electricity nowadays. but again, how much is that guaranteed? i don't know that they might even continue to decrease generator supply to people nowadays because of this fuel prices, because a lot of them are now forced to get fuel from the black market market because it's, it isn't accessed. it isn't being given to everybody here at the moment. so it's quite catastrophic to say the least. politicians in the u. s. are seizing on europe to energy crisis to demand sanctions against russia, north stream gas, paula, a gas pipeline. spike market at chaos easing after president putin's pledge to boost supplies. some lawmakers are blaming moscow for a record price search. president biden. and chancellor merkel committed to taking action. should russia attempt to use energy as a weapon?

yet both of tend to blind eye to the putin regimes deliberate efforts to press europe into accelerating the russian nodes stream to pipeline certification process by manipulating europe's gas markets and leveraging a severe energy crisis on the continent. the recently finished north stream to gas pipeline has been the target of yours pressure ever since construction began last year. it became under sanctions from washington. but this summer most of those measures were lifted, falling in agreement between the u. s. and germany. it now needs that the final green light from berlin moscow sees the ongoing threat as an attempt to scupper its relations with european nations in your list of 30. but then we'll go to still, the us openly say that cooperation with russia is contrary to europe's energy security interests. they want to directly embroiled in this area and reduce our independence up. and it's now going german chancellor has been vocal in support of russia as a supplier partner speaking at an e u. balkan summit in slovenia,

anglo merkel stress that moscow has always struck a stock to its contractual obligations. the fog is a gift. this, if you ask me whether there have been orders that russia has taken and then failed to fulfil, as it stands. now, that is not the case. so various, there are no orders that russia has said no, we will not deliver those to you. and we are not pumping gas through the ukrainian pipelines, rather, russia can only fulfill orders that have been contract it out. so the question is really, isn't being ordered. speaking earlier in the week, president put in blame to europe's gas crisis on an overly hasty transition to green energy, coupled with brussels decision to switch from long term gas contracts to volatile spot trading. the gas price had been steadily increasing since the spring but shot up in the past couple of weeks bring a huge financial strain on many european households. ah,

in with we spoke with maximilian cross and m e p for the alternative for germany party and also with karen can i solve a former foreign minister of austria? they gave us their perspectives on politics in clashing with energy security. about 7 years ago. that could have been more supply to do your mom. that's why i planned that was never billed them. he's house 3000 stream. free went to being constructed in the summer, 2014. and so now it seems as if all the i

older criticism available isn't the directed against the most free men to. it simply doesn't make sense of a real matches taken in terms of making a guess as much as well as that the contracts allow when we speak of anna to weapon, a lot of people, even. so those who have been born here, then 73 will always think of old what, for instance, opechi arab countries to sleep the night in seventy's, we had at 7 instances non supply and non export on this. what we can call it in like an, an, a 2 weapon if you want to use that matessa. but in the current context of the many context, long term delivery, nasty, very complex. it's exist between the russian federation and there is new countries . and beyond that, it simply doesn't make sense to use it. if you western europe and rush out become

an into the partnership over economic change over energy supply than europe gets new opportunity is ended. you worlds, or europe, is love any longer, completely dependent to united states. so d, america, europe, america, playing d, a politics to preserve their global leadership rule as the only superpower and they don't care about consumer prices of energy security in europe. they care on their arm and since the whole others pro american politicians, fear of a whole industry of this is very powerful. so what we have there is no rational reason there is no, there is no rational reason because of russian behavior because of economic interest. molly has accused french forces of training extremist group submit a deepening feud between the 2 countries. this comes after 16. molly and soldiers

were ambushed and killed by terrorists and the african nations north. on tuesday, the prime minister has pointed the finger at paris, accusing france of deceit. as jesse malin government still doesn't control the region of cattle, though, on grapes, trained by french offices. we have evidence of that in our language. there is a phrase you search for needle in your room, but someone who is also looking for a standing on it, you'll never find it. and this is a situation where currently witnessing molly and we don't understand it. and we can't tolerate it. french troops have been in molly since early, 2013 fighting illness militants. but more than 8 years into the intervention, the security crisis has only worsened with new terrorist factions. emerging jotting tanks continue to devastate to the sa health region of north africa and with a growing backlash against the french presence. emanuel micron has agreed to pull most of the troops out last week. the french president slammed the government saying by mako has 0 credibility. after 2 military coups but molly's prime minister,

fired back, accusing france of abandoning his country. it did lose the loss of firstly, the terrors came from libya and who destroyed the loop in state. it was frances allies. those terrorists came from abroad and then they expanded. secondly, when the marlene government asked france for help in 2013, the authorities only wanted as support and intelligence, but no troops on the ground france complied with that request in a few areas. but when they reached could, they blocked the malia military from entering crating an enclave. and what the next, in order to establish new government. the french contacted members of answer arched in an organisation considered to be an international terrorist group by the u. s. it is the modern wing of al qaeda. they also contacted the leaders of the so called national movement for as of odds freedom. paris said it would help them divide molly and give them their own state as of its freedom were exiled by the modern people. because they were angry at them, they had in mckinney fossa, their moral image and totters because they were plotting the terrorists. they went to political power as they were minority, even among the tar appellation for they weren't a military power because they had been exile. france took them from,

became fossa and brought into kit up and doing so fronts united, the national movement, fuss about freedom with a number of groups considered to be terrorists to create a group. they called the coordination of odds movements in doing so, france united the national movement for us of odds, freedom with a number of groups considered to be terrorists. great group, they call the coordination of odds and movements, and france gave canal to this organization. we spoke to tom harb, the co chair of the american mid east coalition for democracy. he thinks african nations that need to handle their own security, but the french intervention has only made matters worse. it would friend to name some law called because this is the variable a region, maybe that had the odd braylan from a settlement of the tribe. i think a relation is gonna be korea and more to put our model for there are for de malli people than anybody al, i know before i should the preferred their country about big data. also keep an eye

on the nation because we don't want let that 1014 in northern africa and in the middle east, where i think it's spread out through the region. the african nation. they need to create the force eventually to put an end and 2 to 2, or press the organization because they are real one and their own company before they don't want anybody else hide cove, it might be a global disaster, but not for some big pharma bosses they've just made the forms rich list. we've got that story ahead shortly. you watch much international.

ah ah so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race is on offense. very dramatic and development only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very difficult. i'm time to sit down and talk

with oh, where i will come back. this is our t international. let's turn to the world of sports where issues around russian, doping controls are. once again, making headlines. the world anti doping agency has this evening officially revoked the status of moscow's anti doping lab out. he's on quarter comments now on the twit new twist in the long running store, while the decision to revoke the approval for moscow's national anti doping laboratory comes amidst allegations that russia was not complying with the international standard of laboratories, code of ethics yesterday, by way of a circulatory vote. the world anti doping agencies executive committee,

endorsed the water disciplinary committee recommendation to revoke the approved status of the national anti doping. the bar tree in moscow to carry out blood sample analysis exclusively for the purpose of the athlete biological passport. due to noncompliance with the international standard for laboratories and it's code of ethics. this means the moscow lab is ineligible to conduct blood analyses that can be handed to anti doping organizations honoring the world anti doping code. but this laboratory actually has been suspended since january of 2020 the year before. it was accused of altering and deleting information that needed to be handed to water as part of an investigation into an a legend state sponsored doping program that russia apparently was being investigating investigated for. but what a has given russia 3 weeks to appeal this decision. but we also heard from roo sada, which said that this decision really doesn't make any sense since the laboratory itself was suspended for a while. now. this is french or the boards are,

it hasn't been accredited from a long time ago and hasn't been working. i don't quite understand where this information comes from. we deliver old doping samples abroad and we only to rec with moscow laboratory in the context of sample storage. we don't analyze anything because the most color boards are, is actually storage place and nothing else. i think it's some kind of a mistake. the final decision comes after legal battles that took place in the court of arbitration for sport in switzerland last year. and that is the place where a potential appeal hearings would take place if russia decides to do this. but as for these allegations, russia denies any wrong doing so we're gonna have to see how this plays out. or thousands have taken to the streets of a, of the italian capital in protest against coven restrictions. please use water cannons and tear gas to force back hundreds of people protesting against a government validated certificate system known as the green pass. demonstrators are furious at plans being introduced to stop the spread of covet from mandatory

health passes to workplace access restrictions. the rules will come into force from october. 15th government says the moves necessary to keep the virus under control ahead of an expected rise in cases this winter. those failing to present to pass or negative or a negative test result face being suspended from work. protestors claim it's an infringement on their rights. for millions, worldwide have lost their livelihood. since the start of the pandemic times have never been better for big pharma. the main shareholders of materna, one of the leading producers of coven vaccines, have now made it on to the forbes rich list. one of them is timothy springer, in early investor in the u. s. firm, his fortune has shot up nearly $6000000000.00. next we have montana's chairman and co founder, no bar, a young worth 5000000000 with board member robert langer not far behind in 200 and

22nd place. none of the 3 were in the top 400 before this year. and the staggering wealth of us pharma bosses has prompted some questions in the media. firstly, we're global calls for covet booster shots financially driven. secondly, why are corporations raking in the profits from taxpayer funded research? and thirdly, why are they refusing to share that life saving? know how with the rest of the world, those points are being widely raised online. of course, the company made money of the vaccine, but the u. s. g greatly helped fund the final product, and no one should have become the richest american during a global pandemic. come on. even though modernity, saunders made the forbes for hundreds, 3 just least pharma companies are refusing to share the vaccines with the world immoral. how about a list of names of people who have died of cove? it because they couldn't access a vaccine in pods because of madonna's reluctance to share its vaccine technology

to help increase supplies. while we are society. the only values billionaires cove, it is the best thing that ever happened to them. no ones that they want to keep it going with unnecessary boosters and more faxes. next year. access to madison's specialist doctor moga, come out jani, talked to the program earlier. she thinks that the scale of big pharma profits during the pandemic is nothing short of a moral down. i never made anything that were, you know, doesn't have any products in pharmacies and the price for that reason. that solvent 19 maxine, same was my own thing and they just made me basically and the moment we added the found that me, why can we date to be stronger minor, if you don't have crowns that got on by seeing pharmaceutical companies can make you know, other than lexi than and make billions of dollars. so it seems like a bunch of companies on that general make billions of $1.00 if the world was

the one. in not nobody said no profit, but to have this up seen property while that it was people's lives are shafan, is not just the moral, it's insane. after more than a decade of preparation, a 6th generation russian combat drone is now undergoing its final touches very little about the s 70 hunters. stealth aircraft is publicly known, but archie, you wish up of all of them got the unique opportunity to meet the machine. a strong stealthy and slake and a 70 b one. prototype of the used unmanned aerial vehicle of the a hot nico hunter program created. and they see who does i be or is undergoing ground tests. they're 70. i heard nick a hands a jury made it's made in 20 minutes light back in august 2019. but it became even more famous when he had been good. 3 faces in

a joint flight with an up to the minute generations of it to 75 to as a lead rob 9 to get denied shot. let's take a look at the giant dimensions. mm. the length of this as 70 b. one. prototype is 14 meters. the height is 3 meters, 30 centimeters. the wingspan is 19 meters. being area is 110 square meters, according to publicly available information in the future must produce drones of this program will be even bigger. officially the as 70 of the how to program is a combat unmanned aerial vehicle designed to perform a wide range of missions. it will be produced using self technology. daytona performance, such as weight, speed, range, flight duration, payload, math armament, range, or so the ceiling are all strictly classified, but there are still some hints so fast as it has a jet engine,

meaning it can provide as speedy delivery. i would have a carrot, it's, it's huge, it's wings pon is bigger than that of the food chain rating. so for to 7. so do you say signed with able to lift unimpressive payload of munitions? and more importantly, the can use regular evasion. weapons designed for the rest of combat aircraft. in contrast to other drivers, smalling signs, weight of light, weight compet materials require munitions specially produced for bug. otherwise they would fall apart in the air when launching convention goes on missiles. taking this information into account, we can accurately assume that base machine is hardly intended for low lice can ashes, but rather for a serious armed confrontation. the closest thing to the honda is its older brother, the 5th generation fight, as if to 7 the as 70 is powered by one after about a turbo jet engine rather than the to you on the soup. if to 7, the, to france cameras of the drone, savage, the eyes of the operator pilot, who controls it remotely from a ground control point. currently there is manual control here,

but in the future it will be abolished. and then monte croft will fly and perform tasks entirely in automatic mode. at the moment the crew include 3 people at pilot operator and navigate operator. and the communications operator. models quick looks all assume you in this complex provides everything necessary for these aircraft to fly and performance tasks and everything else earth. when does the controllable aircraft systems control of his position in the air from control of its trajectory? control of all logical connections also to enable the hand to take hope for the 1st time. all of its systems were fast installed and tested on the soup to 7 aircraft inside. this is the as 70 hunter, but it is obviously mind for safety reasons. warsaw, the advantages of the as 70. the developers say that all existing combat trousers have a short range. in contrast, the range of the as 70 hunter will be much larger. and of course, the advantage will bates intelligence size and payload capacity. even though the

thanks to its size, it has the combat capabilities which in the future will be used by our armed forces . you a visa, the a hot nick project are produced at an aircraft plants, a novo superiors. currently, a construction of another, a 70 prototype was taking place here. it will receive a slightly updated design and will differ from the b. one sample both in size and partly in internal content. several more prototypes ought to be crated before the machine is put into moss. production and we'll certainly keep you updated when this happens. you lash above all of our asi, it is a free. i'll be back in about 29 minutes with another phone. just let you know such international. ah ah, but years ago the taliban were different today or more violent than ever before. 20

years ago. the really kind of to stick with central place for so pop, pop today did not have none of principal at all. except that they are using this principle claim has their own interest. but years ago, there was some sort of kind of dialogue with the others to see what they can do. today. they are so kind of restrict, you're limited to check your chicken gun cabinet. wanted to call question and from from inside question, don't just completely concentrated on west cult with the way of life of reindeer herders leading. and traditionally nomadic lifestyle in the tundra is similar to a parallel reality. i while the main drive with women carry the weight of the house.
