loggerheads with the government after a report reveals hundreds of thousands of crimes against children committed by the clergy. we speak to one of the victims. when we came to france, i was 8 and 9 years old. so i spent almost 2 years there until i was sexually assaulted by bernard. pray not what is shameful is not apologizing for an atrocity committed in catholic institutions on hundreds of children. ah, my brother, kathy live to rent from our studios in moscow. this is our 2 international. i'm john thomas. certainly glad to have you with i know we start with our special coverage of a trail blazing russian film cruise returned to the earth from the international space station actress eula. pet is sealed and director claim ship. panko spent 12 days on board. the i assess making the world's 1st movie shot in orbit. ah

ah. so it's another cosby milestone. soviet union sent the 1st person into space and russia is now picking up the baton by striving for another 1st making a movie in orbit. here's the moment the crew parachuted down on cars like soil several hours ago. oh. so beautiful. it was cool. it was like a roller coaster and we were just enjoy it. everything was sparkling outside the window. we had a lot of fun with when our flight was nearly over. i didn't want to return. no. such a thing happens once in

a lifetime. mm. space is cool. now the returning crew will now have to undergo a 3 day rehabilitation process there. spacecraft named after the 1st person in space, you're a good garden, undocked from the international space station at 415 a. m, moscow time. so the descent took 3 and a half hours. so it is unique moment. for russia, it's space industry and the world of cinema. you can see our full coverage of their historic landing on our, our, to youtube channel right now. here, some highlights, ah, ah, the soviet union was 1st to send a dog into space. then they sent the 1st man and woman,

and now russia is aspiring to get another 1st and that is filming a feature movie in orbit and actress. and a film director spent 12 days of the international space station shooting scenes for that space drama. let me introduce you to the crew of this historic flight julia pettis sailed. right here is a russian film, the star and stage actress. she has appeared in dozens of films and tv series, and she's also a founding member of the charity foundation. gulch should knock, which helps children with disabilities. she's also the mother of 2 daughters. right now to the film's director, who also works as a producer and a writer as well. a movie make a through and through mr. clim ship panko. now he's the father of 3 and was recently behind several successful movies in russia including that of salute. cm more salute 7. now on a lighter note, she pancho's already set a bit of a record in space because he's not a small man. in fact,

he is the tortoise russian to ever get into space and go to the international space station ah, in his little groups else is on us. you ruling middle grade smith. i got so much with ah, it's sabrina naso, mutually put dial. it may be leonor, nor good,

nor gustavo. yeah. sheet museum company we are usually is not just suki at the vin omnia by you, lynette. unethical. noticed all these or yourself, would you like them or were you is which you, you should know them. you're going to some, when you most could voice, are pretty easily crew. forced muscle. ah, no, she versioning. mitchell feed. yeah. he goes to what of the jump being yeah. annoyed value with the nash, my little mutual. i mean, you buy yet to partner with

when you look at out your panko and pedestal, during this pre flight training, of course it was an expedited 4 month course, but they all went through all. i guess you could say the checks and balances that are required for a cosmopolitan trading. they all passed with flying colors, but when you see them experimenting there in 0 gravity, i mean it looks a bit of a bumpy ride, to be honest with you. but let's take a look now and what set to be the 1st ever feature film made in space. now the movies working title is that of the challenge. now it tells the story of a surgeon played by pet a sealed who is sent to the international space station to perform life saving hot surgery on a customer who's actually played by real life commander. only get ski who is as we speak, guiding the film, proved back home. now there were 3000 applicants for this lead role,

and not all of them were professional actresses at all. well, obviously space travel can be a very risky business that back in 2018. there was a saw you is rocket failure. that happened right off the lift off. and luckily the crew kept that cool and they came away unscathed after an emergency landing. as we understand that have been no accidents since. now, one of the trickiest aspects of space travel is not the landing. and here is how that is done a with,

[000:00:00;00] with, ah, well, with there is a lot of

a growing anticipation tension over here. and of course, a lot of excitement, i can tell you that a lot of people are here. filming cruise that many, many journalists, and of course, family members of those are the actress unit pretty sealed. and to film director and film producer cream, she panko, they are family members and friends are also here supporting them their return and am here joint life by the yeah. mother, mother alpha clean as well as his sister. thank you so much for being here with us . i know you've been here for a long time already. how do you feel? no, well, style in you, but we were tied in before they went on the flight. it's challenging emotionally. we support them and watch them on their screens behind us. we are very excited and when to send positive energy to them so they can withstand everything. it was an absolutely amazing experience. we had a cool from the i assess from space. it's just like a science fiction movie. i think this whole experience is a great moment of joy for them. and of course for us,

what we're looking at here is v m. s a teen space capsule, the parachute in full display for you. now you've got to imagine off to 12 days and space of the international space station that they got to be feeling a bit of relief right now. because at this point, they know they being through the most dangerous part of the trip, they successfully flew up to the i assess, successfully spend 12 days. they're operating at 17 and a half 1000 kilometers per hour. where with very difficult issues at the gravity they made, i guess the 1st feature filled in space can't wait to see the editing job when they come back down to terra firma, another film crew making its way home now isn't just the special for just being the 1st to shoot this movie in the pre flight training, it took only 4 months compared with a minimum, 2 year old deal for cosmo in order to do it properly. julia had a sealed and claimed panko passed that medical and fitness exams with flying colors . and another 1st for the trip is that the sort use spacecraft is being operated by

just one commander this time without the help of a professional flight engineer. and it's all seen as helping make commercial space flight ever more viable. as far as we understand, tom cruise is very disappointed in this because in the past year also, tom cruz announced the next the mission impossible movie will be will be working with nasa and a lot of musk and that we filmed in space. but guess what, tom cruise yet just a bit too late. the russians got that 1st. it's not a matter of having some cases for everybody. i've had a sylvan ship hanging. well, we put on to 2 private jets. they'll be whisked back here to the moscow region. where for a few weeks, they have to be monitored. that health has to be checked or touched down. we've got a downright hip re select navy sky came out of the landing capsule. then he was followed by glimpses claimed she panko. and finally, we saw you and everyone was smiling and we figure out over here that the landed

safely and that everything went according to the plan and everything was fine. now we even watch over here a weaving to the crowd of people that were reaching him there at the landing site in the remote area of catholics. and also it was quite a relief to see a union smiling when she got out of the lending cap. so of course, it is quite a journey for them. they spend 12 days in space, filming the 1st feature movie that was shot in space. it is really a historic moment for everyone here. a resounding success here with arte international and for all those involved in this amazing feature film project. the 1st feature film being filmed in space while the russians are now back on terra firma. and it's a basically

a case of mission accomplish spaces . cool. now let's get into the news that shaped the week. president putin has it rejected claims that russia is using natural gas as a weapon and driving a prices. speaking out the russian energy week for him, he also pledged to supply more gas. if europe requests it, he also stressed that the importance of the now completed nordstrom to gas pipeline under the baltic sea, which is still awaiting the final green light from europe. sort of this year to look as far as north stream to is concerned. what opponents of the project have claimed that this is not a commercially viable product and rushes pursuing geopolitical motivations. well, you know, this is yet another piece of nonsense. just please pay closer attention to what i'm saying. this route is 2000 kilometers, shorter and quicker to our main consumers in europe than via ukraine. d. c. 2000 kilometers more efficient. it's cheaper because transit is cheaper and it's also cheaper for customers. she because the transit fee has to be included in the end

price in particular for european customers. we are doing this despite our political differences. this year we have increased supply by 10 percent. again, we would very much like them to be grateful. instead of only criticizing us more, no. so artillio, katrinka was at russian energy week here in moscow. here is his recap of the opening day. first, a quick look into the context of lot of my food in the latest remarks during the russian energy week. the global post coven power demand has been on the up, and that led to major changes in the supply chains, 2 major disturbances and even shortages. now, the prices for natural gas futures in europe have absolutely skyrocketed. they went down a bit. but in the meantime, russia was being accused of politicizing the matter and for years this country has been under fire for its infrastructure project in the field like the north stream to. however,

this crisis led to reassessment and this is what the russian leader has been talking about for a while. and he also brought up what he called mistakes and the european energy policy that led to the christ goes to the higher prices on gas in europe, or consequence of a deficit of energy and not vice versa. and that's why you should not shift the blame over the last 10 years step by step. the systematic flaws were introduced into the european energy system, and they lead to a massive energy crisis. for any market, stability and predictability are important. and russia flawlessly fulfilled its contractual obligations to our partners, including our partners in europe. we, in short guaranteed uninterrupted gas deliveries to europe. we have every reason to believe that this year we will reach record levels of gas deliveries on the global market. when prices are volatile, when they're going through the roof, what can help with that extra supplies? president prudent said that there was not a single occasion when russians entered you,

joined gas from refused request from europe for additional natural gas exports. and what mr. brewton was asked a straightforward question whether moscow has ever used the energy sector as a political weapon. his answer was straightforward. no, want to ask you about it directly. has russia been use hang energy as a weapon? rushes, not using any weapons. if you've been paying attention as for the economy, where are we using weapons and what conflicts are we taking part and for the economy? this is not something we tend to use. this is what i call a politically motivated talk. there's nothing to support it when it comes to saying that we use energy as some kind of weapon at the end of the day. i guess the question is, how can you expect europe to believe you're a reliable energy partner when you're not supplying that energy via the pipeline that i see was if you're a beautiful woman. but i'm saying one thing to you and you're saying a different thing to me as if you haven't heard what i said,

mister president. i mean, what was the same point when she went to london? you said that you are not supplying gas through pipelines to europe, but actually you are mistaken. you are mistaken in all of those who feed on the information they receive. we are actually increasing our supplies to europe because prom increased supplies by 10 percent. and overall, russia increased them by 15 percent. we have increased gas supply through pipelines by 10 percent and increased l. n. g supply by 13 percent. we are increasing that we're not decreasing our gas supply to europe. the number one ingredient in mr. perkins recipe for the volatility in prices. not to come back any time soon. that is a long term contracts when gas prices aren't fixed, but they depend on the current market situation and the oil prices. by the way, what's a major cause for concern for us? some very important european politicians is the transit of russian natural gas through ukraine beyond 2024. well,

lot of our putin said that russia is ready to keep that in place, as long as it knows how much gas europe is willing to buy in the future. i. e, he wants these long term contract again. what russia ones is stability and predictability still become large. international catholic bishops in france are at odds with the government. after a damning report reveals hundreds of thousands of crimes against children covered up by the clergy. we hear from one of the victims after a short break. this is the weekly, on our international ah ah, ah, is your media a reflection of reality

in the world transformed what will make you feel safer? tice, elation for community. are you going the right way or are you being that somewhere? direct? what is true? walk is great. in the world corrupted, you need to descend a join us in the depths or remain in the shallows. join me every thursday on the alex salmon. sure. but i'll be speaking to guess when the world of politics spoke. business, i'm show business. i'll see you then. oh,

we'll come back to the weekly right here on our to international. now the top catholic bishop in france has apologized and backtracked after claiming church secrecy as above the law. he was earlier reprimanded by the interior minister for saying that when priests learn of crimes during confession, they are not allowed to tell the police. this follows an inquiry which on earth more than 300000 to sex crimes against children in the french catholic church since the 1950s. we spoke with the founder of the victims association, who himself suffered abuse. the level hill falls when we came to france. i was 8 and 9 years old. oh my parents wanted me to join this scout group. so i spent almost 2 years there until i was sexually assaulted by bernard prina. when i found myself alone with him and the door was closed, he hugged me. it lasted around 15 minutes and he was saying something i couldn't understand because i didn't understand what was happening. and i remember having my head completely crushed. i was completely crushed against his belly and i remember

the fiber of the fabric. and the collar he shut in and ma'am is smell is the childhood trauma is engraved in my memory full of very precise details. according to a french commissions report, there are have been nearly 3000 perpetrators among catholic church workers since the 1950s. more than 300000 minors were abused mostly boys, aged between 10 and 13. a vast majority of the crimes have passed the statute of limitations and cannot be prosecuted francois de vo. again, claims that covering up these atrocities is a matter of church policy or shall cushion was off. so i told my parents about the incident, they took me out of the scout group further, but then they will harassed by the whole local community. now, a catholic neighbourhood who accused my parents of harming the church, they protected me from this. they tried to get the priest to leave and they

succeeded after 8 months of fighting. but i had to live with the reality that this had happened to she. i couldn't hide it from my family. i couldn't wall myself in. when i understood the magnitude of it, i told myself that the day would come when i could confront this evil force and kill it. and that i would not miss the opportunity i should mention because i'm certain that these atrocious crimes swarm their organization on concealment of it are evil. is it of it we have in front of us? the vatican with all his power was to my strength, is that my opponents of understood that nothing will stop me, sir. i have nothing to lose the investigating commission. i must fulfill them. his responsibilities is required, goes with them. pope francis has expressed his great sorrow over the findings. he called the report a moment of shame for the whole catholic church and for him personally. but francois devote thinks the show of remorse from the pontiff is not enough. plough aunt susan bus, excuse me,

what is shameful is not apologizing for an atrocity committed in catholic institutions on hundreds of children. the pope has never ever sent a single message. never tried to contact us, but it's his responsibility we're talking about. it's not about his shame. we don't care about his shame. one cannot commit crimes and simply say, i'm ashamed for the crimes i have committed. it doesn't work like that. the pope received cod along sovereign but he did not receive the victims. he did not receive the victims associations despite the media coverage. divine justice is based on the statue of limitations for sex crimes against minors. is that your religion? is that what you are explaining to us? you are a shipwreck of spirituality and a source of shameful humanity. pope frances, that's what i say to you. may jam britain's tabloid press is beating

a retreat after claiming that kremlin spies stole the formula for russia's sputnik v vaccine from the u. k. the story in the sun was widely picked up by other outlets, but now at least one rival newspaper has retracted its article and apologized to come to our attention that this was full of the information about the inventor of the sputnik, the vaccine gamma la national research center for epic, meola g and microbiology is publicly known. the article also contained false information. as an apology, we are happy to set the record straight and published the following statement from the russian direct investment fund. the son newspaper branded, it's a report as exclusive saying, an anonymous british government source had proof that data for the russian co shot was taken by mouth goes for an agent. the cremeans spokes person has responded to it all by describing the paper as being famous for it's deeply on scientific article. the developers of splitting the v say they used the same scientific method that they had applied in earlier research to quickly make the vaccine against

probably 1900. the 1st registered in the world, russian scientists are currently working on joint clinical trials with astrazeneca on the combination of the 2 vaccine. meanwhile, the british security minister, when questioned on the validity of the report, was hesitant to back the sons claims. i can't comment won't comment on the specific case, but it would be fair to say correct to say that we face threats of this type that are different. they're more sophisticated, the more extensive than they ever have been before. we are now independent journalist lucre bay says the british, red tops are up to their usual antics of attacking russia while competition and the british press is terrible. yeah. so especially for for a capital or it's like that. so no wonder that they are trying to show that the other one is not right, especially in this case that so a clear fate use you know,

you say the king is dead while the king is still a lot. so that's a typical fight. you know, it's a tabloid for which shot the scandal is the info l scandal sells paper and also of course on the internet. and they don't really care about the truth of it and use. and so even if it's so wrong, well, brush a hugely bad. so why not say one more time? you know, that sort of all form stupid argument that could be in their mind in the western press. i'm a journalist in, in the west and in the western press. it's not one time it is with people. it's every day. it is detailed news, big news always russia is wrong. it's the message. this is fake news, giving only one part of the story. and there are so good at that in the european press or that does it for me, this or i will be back in about 32 minutes of another. look at your weekly,

this is our to international. when i see black america, i see part of my so i was growing, you know, like america spoke to me when white a stride. you did not those who say black lives matter is a movement. we are importing from a marriage up. no, nothing of who we are. i lived in a world where white lives mattered. and i was not wide like missing. and i wasn't known from black america. i learned how to speak back to whiteness. aboriginal people here more every day. we are out loaded system. now will be the police were out with she states, i'm scared that more children are going to grow up in the country that think says

no racism, but they're more likely to end up in the criminal justice system. then there are other fellow friends in daycare driven by drink, shaped by frontier. some of those with there's sinks, we dare to ask it's been decades since the fall of spain's fascist regime, but old won't still have entailed your and you can go into done them in the forty's

because when we find out the law michel freedom. okay. able to miss a powell said, cutting me on the bus at the station. me know that i just, i think with thousands of newborn babies were torn from their mothers and given away and forced adoption normally. not about i use them for faster than my own. robots. i feel like i mentioned to this day mother still search for grown children
