ah ah, taking heat out of the market. european gas prices fall after vladimir putin orders their russian energy giant gals prom to opp supplies to europe also had in the program today a key figure from january's capitol hill riots. he was caught on camera encouraging people to storm the building was quietly removed from the f. b i's most wanted list prompting questions about his background and of the faith of julian assange is debated in the u. k. high court. the whistle blowers, supporters demand his freedom. one m e p told us it's time the government stepped. it is probably needs a political process rather than a traditional process. the politicians need to stop petitioned or have left this

man. oh, where are we are counting the program from today? welcome to moscow on to the news our on our t. i'm you know, neil, our top story this thursday. europe may be in the grip of an energy crisis, but gas prices have started to fold. it came after vladimir putin tool, the chief of the russian gas jain, gas problem, to ratchet up supplies, to european storage facilities. next month, or earlier, my colleagues, daniel hawkins and elliot tranquil discussed, walked the russian president at the se, upholstered. okay, i ask you that once you have finished pumping gas into underground storage facilities in russia to start work on increasing the volume of gas in your underground storage facilities in europe, in austria and germany, what exactly did the russian president, the site, the cause,

this plunging gas prices, well, this is how the market's work. they almost immediately reacted to the russian president's decision to make gas from the russian energy giant increased the volumes of natural gas in its european underground storage facilities. after such facilities are filled in russia, the prices for european natural gas futures went down by 3 per cent. and the russian energy joined expects its storage facilities in russia to be filled by november the 8th. so right in less than 10 weeks, the volumes of natural gas in the european storage facilities will start growing. and this is indeed a true relief for european consumers ahead of the winter season. but perhaps more importantly, following an incredible surge and gas prices in the last several weeks. now,

during the meeting with russia's senior government officials, latimer potent once again weighed in on the roots of the energy crisis in europe. america, isn't it? as though the situation on the european gas market remains unstable, the reasons are a decline and domestic gas production in europe and a reduction in liquefied natural gas, primarily from the united states. but they removed a significant amount from the european markets by the way, gas from replenished us and even delivered more than the americans withdrew. at the same time, the demand for gas has also grown due to a drop in energy production from renewable sources. and the closure of conventional generation facilities. obviously this is why the balance has arisen. do you see a lot of consumers in your premium sovereignly for following this service news? what else are you hearing from the european side on these latest updates? well, we're using the word relief, but the question is whether anyone in europe will actually notice the efforts on

the part of russia and praise moscow form the help and the approach that it has chosen for the time being. because actually, in the past few weeks, we've only been hearing many critical voices in the critical of moscow blaming russia for using it's natural gas exports as a geopolitical tool. some of the nations are continuing to act as the staunchest enemies of gas prom and a natural gas exports from russia. probes, investigations are being launched in particular. the european commissions competition department is currently gathering evidence to see if gas suppliers are manipulating the market during the energy crisis. they're not specifically mentioning gas from, but it's clear what they're driving at. only recently,

poland coal on the european commission to open an investigation and to whether gas prom broke 80 rules in failing to make extra gas volumes available on the spot markets. but there you have a lot of more prudent has sent a clear message. the volumes at the european storage facilities will be boosted with russian natural gas. the prices have fallen and perhaps at this point it will simply be unfair towards russia to fail to notice that these efforts on the part of moscow or otherwise that can all be explained through pure politics. summary action that we have received, german m. e p. maximilian cross because russia is doing more than it needs to and the reasoned, isn't political game. what russia now is doing that it is supplying gas or what is contracted, what it's obliged to do. so,

without expecting anything in exchange, let's say the occasional whole team to so every one hotels, the russia wants to use gas, a weapon to reach political aim is now proven wrong. and that is the political message. and i hope that at least europe and media will, will inform the people about it. what we have today in the opinion, that's all about gas. it is about blaming russia and preparing for another could warn you, have heard the jim administer $57.00 who is talking about even having the tommy option against russia. this is a pressure is a statement that we haven't heard, even in the end of the cold war. we are back in the 984 in the late

seventy's rap people openly using crap and things that, that help them to gain confidence, emotion. now it is not often someone disappears entirely from a list, so infamous as the f b i most wanted, but that's what's happened to a man said to be one of the key figures in january capitol hill writes in washington, he was caught on camera telling people to storm the building and then or string them inside. it's got some including members of the republican party raising questions about who exactly the mysterious figure is, kill us up and picks up the story. an individual featured in videos calling for people to enter the capital building, even before the january 6 capital riot and was seen on the day. january 6, ushering crowds into the capital building has been identified by law enforcement as arizona resident re apps re apps in arizona man seen

invite le circulated videos telling trump support is on multiple occasions to go into. the capitol also seemed to have acted on his own. i don't know, like a rebel, as i said, we need, we need, you know, i'll say we need to go in the camera let go. ah, not surprisingly, he was on the f. b, i's most wanted list and was referred to as suspect. 16 for some time f, b i w f o is seeking the public's assistance in identifying those who made unlawful entry into the u. s. capital building on january the 6th. but now suspect 16 has been scrubbed from the f b i website. now if you take a look at the way back machine from archive dot org, you can see that from january 8th, 2021, all the way until june,

30th suspect 16 was pretty clearly highlighted, but suddenly, on july, 1st, he wasn't on the website any longer. now if he'd been arrested, he would still be on the website just with arrested under his name, like others who have been apprehended. but he's not, he's just been scrubbed. this has prompted lawmakers to ask questions about whether or not there were f b. i provocative tours who may have helped events on january 6th to go the way they did far as we can find this individual has not been charged with anything. can you tell us without talking about particular incidence or particular videos? how many agents are assets of the federal government were present on january 6, whether they agitated to go into the capital and if any of them did a so i'm not going to violate this normal of follow the rule of law. i'm not going to comment on an investigation that's ongoing. now the capital breach database has no entries or listings for re apps to some. that's

a pretty big red flag. the ongoing mystery of re apps, he repeatedly appears in videos encouraging and inciting an invasion of the capital on january the 6th. yet for some reason has not yet been indicted were charged, even as people with far less involvement have been re ups is a free, mum. he has never been arrested or charged nearly 10 months after july. the 6th, the fbi i in justice department still refused to comment on where the apps has ever been served. a search warrant the f. b, i's record when it comes to things like protests and provocations is not exactly squeaky claim. people can look up the history of cohen tell pro infiltration and other dirty deeds if january 6th is such a pivotal date in u. s. history as it's being presented. surely questions like those surrounding suspect? 16 demand answers. caleb mauppin, r t new york. now they faith,

all the wiki helix funder julian assange, is to be decided today by the you case, high court. it is the 2nd day of an extradition appeal hearing brought by the us. now he is wanted by washington on 17 charges of espionage and one conspiracy to hack i government computer now, if convicted assange could face a prison sentence of 175 years. ah, for the 1st day of the hearing, it was marked by a master rally outside the court with scores of protesters demanding julianna's sanchez release. on expressing concern over the whistle blowers, health, shabby, edward dusty was there for many people here in central london have been defending. doing this on standing in solid darcy with him to some 10 hours throughout the day

. we've had from some key players within the campaign as wow, who'd say that they will not stop campaigning until june? this orange is free? i was doing what's the condition with his change. so this raises his earliest fall, but not the u. s. has abused the laws the agreements with this country. it's a using the extradition agreements with this country in order to have this hearing today. this has to come to an end. julian has to be freed, we had from seller martin a very emotional and teary response from her. she actually said she was taken back by just how then he was intruding in the court room and she served if he is extradited to the united states. he simply will not survive and is tantamount to

killing him to of course, why he has enjoyed the last near decade now has been absolutely grueling. we only have to look back to his time in london's ecuadorian embassy, where he was that the nearly 2 and a half 1000 days, which equates for around 7 years when he was seeking a political asylum. he was then dramatic. j. r holds out by british police back in april of 20 and 19 and flung into bell marsh prison, which is of course, the united kingdom's most notorious prison. for many people outside the port room, say that unit is actually being made. an example of this is all about setting a precedent, so the other journalists don't follow suit. and some people, i would argue like those in the heads of sage, or in certain organizations potentially like this, cia, they decide, you know, solid is the terrorists of these people. these point us is outside the courtroom. they hail him as a hero. a

troop out is to pull the u. s. of now with a pretty good decision dated january with the fact that the united states can reach their long harm out into the world. a is not even an american who has never worked in the united today. the ed charge or writing char can with i hope that, you know, it's just probable us called we trust. they think they say they talk about the fees extradited it. this is what pretty severe. but if he's extra died today will kill it effectively. so this absolute legal labrenz, the june massage, continues to protest, his hair standing shoulder to shoulder would shoot in

a song could have done. so for the last decade we had some really powerful words again from selim morris. and she says that his rights are our rights and if he loses, we all lose not really touches the crux of this court cases far beyond. a the story of one man is far beyond the story of june. the sergeant asked for many, is about the fundamental tenants and principles of the rights to express herself the rights to publish and the rights to gain access to journalism. the shall to you was there throughout the day and she got the chance to speak to many people, including irish m, e p mc wallace, who told her it's on just to hold the sounds in prison on treatin like a criminal. it's an, a remarkable testimony to his friends that he's still alive. they have done everything to break him. julian, the sons has never committed a violent in his prison is really only for people does not care for both

of behaving. was an hour a day of civil society when i was nobody else should be in business all this to you saying that this is a graduate towards just 40 and that's on. do you think that there's any real reality or any from it that would be a federal needs to be expedited to the united states? you want people to use a risk risk to the u. s. department in the us military industrial complex because you to expose the fact that they haven't been involved in war crimes talks or god knows was as the things now it isn't prison in america that's going to kill them. device that the americans will not let the goal will not allow him to get out of the tension. i mean, i'm the truth is where if georgia assigns life is going to be spared is probably need a political process rather than judicial process. the politicians need to stop test

and go ahead and let this my live still ahead in the program, my country on the brink of starvation and an old enemy once again wearing its deadly head. the taliban is feeling the pressure enough. scale us down just 2 months after reaching the reins of power. that story and more in the 2nd ah, join me every thursday. alex simon show and i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politics sport. business. i'm show business. i'll see you then. me. ah

ah ah ah ah ah all hello again. it's been almost 2 months since they can't take us withdrawal from

afghanistan on the taliban returned to power. and the brutal reality of life for many children in the country is clear to say. my name is who my 7 years old. i'm here to collect bread. sometimes people help us. sometimes they don't. i don't have a father. i take care of myself. there is no one else to feed us. there's 6 people in our family and i'm the eldest boy at home, so i have to support them. i can't work because one of my hands is paralyzed. adults told me that my hand will not work. i dream continue my studies at school and becoming a doctor. one day people turn it down some times and they say there is no work, no money. so they can't give us bread. my name is nancy, i collect plastic race and sell it. i am here at the baker to collect a few non bread. i have 3 and will now go home. my father died there is no one at home to earn money. i have my mom, a younger brother and sister, and the only one who takes for at home till a family. i want to be a doctor, but there is no one to help us. it was better before. at least we could find bread

easily, but things are in good today. now we don't have anyone to support us if there was, i wouldn't be here for you in know, estimates almost 3000000 children under 5 risk dying from malnutrition. that's the mid the precarious state of the economy, which has been heavily dependent on foreign funds for years. around 40 percent of its gross domestic product has been international 8. however, for the telephone now in control of the country of food crisis is not the only problem it is having to grapple with islamic state. the tele bonds, long time enemy has repeatedly staged the turks on the new government on religious minorities. and not the pentagon express concern the terror groups based in the country have intentions to attack the us. within 6 months. it's all a far cry from the success of the troop withdrawal from a gun. this done,

but president biden hailed at the time i think the intelligence community currently assess that both isis k and al qaeda have the intent to conduct external operations, including against the united states, but neither currently has the capability to do so. we could see isis k generate that capability somewhere between 6 to 12 months. i think the current assessments by the intelligence community is the al qaeda would take a year or 2. our mission to degrade the terrorist threat of al qaeda in afghanistan and kill osama bin laden was a success. i believed that our presence in afghanistan should be focused on the reason we went in the 1st place to ensure afghanistan would not be used as a base from which to attack our homeland. again. we did that. we accomplish that objective. a former pentagon security unless michael maloof told us the u. s. withdrawal has made it even harder to remove ices from afghanistan. isis is now

imbedded in a highly remote mountainous region. would make it much more difficult to try to extract them. and ice with k has as demonstrated to taliban, which is what sir. against that while they may think that they run f canister them, they actually control events. and they've demonstrated that with their suicide bombings, the united states is unable to get any basis in the region. the over the horizon concept really doesn't work. all that well. and, and the ordinance is flowing against isis or all kinds of targets. now has to come from the gulf, it was bite and who wanted to get out and the and bite and also. busy went against the best advice of his, of his national security team to, to, to stay there until certain conditions could be met. an expensive failure

. that's the dumbing verdict on the u. k. government test and trace coated program according to a report compile by m p. 's, they say it's main objective of curbing the virus was never achieved. and a chest destin trace has been one of the most expensive health programs delivered in the pandemic. haven't been allocated and i'm watering 37000000000 pounds over 2 years. it has focused on delivering programs, but outcomes have been muddled. and a number of its profess ames have been over stated or not achieved. and a chest destined traces continued over alliance on consultants is likely to cost taxpayers hundreds of millions of pounds or test them. trace was launched last year at the height of the pandemic. and course britain, the equivalent of 20 percent of the national health services annual budget. the programs flagship tracing system is an up which alerts users,

if they have come into prolong contact with a coven infected person, it advises, but not legally obliges them to self isolate. for 10 days, though, admitting there have been some issues, the government still insists. there are more pros than combs pediatrician. doctor john prentice believes the authorities have never learned from past mistakes on test and traces no exception. i think they'll shovel the money at it and say everything is fine. the commons accounts committee is wrong. so you select committee is go to rome and they'll just carry on burying their head in the sand, which is basically a kind of common characteristics that run through the government. thinking that if you throw money at private companies, you're going to get something that's expected. and they should have learned by now, since you know, the case, they should have invested in n,

h s liberal trades and local public health teams. these are the kinds of things which people have been saying for a month now, very little evidence they've done that. just how green does our energy need to be that all of the big questions looking to be answered at the eurasian economic forum, that meeting gathers together some of the biggest minds of the business world around it opens its doors today in the italian city of verona. with more on the agenda ahead, your chart t charlotte davinsky. well, as the new world order is stumbling, this economic forum will be an opportunity to discuss the rise of what some are describing as a multi polo world. it will be a place where discussions will look at the relations between those in the european and asian continent and how they can best thrive in this new geopolitical, this new social, economical world. and of course,

there will be the opportunity to look at how that can be best achieved. of course, the energy is going to be very much on the agenda. of course, you know that recently there was the worse lot of turbulence in the energy markets that our protagonist of the sir sector, of course, are everything that is considered considered the, the carbon emission and so environment is also in the agenda. so 2 days of discussions, 8 big forums will be held to look at the big issues that are biting across the global world at the moment. they will be discussed by diplomat spike politicians by big business who will be asking the big questions and seeking to find the answers as they looked unpack what is happening in this modern world, including as countries are seeing relationships free between them. the other issues

are going to be discussing will be things that are really hitting hard at home here in europe at the moment, such as the energy crisis. they will be looking at some of the criticisms which have suggested. the reason the european union is in this problem is because it is moved too quickly towards green energy and to fast away from the traditional fossil fuel energies. they'll be looking at those criticisms and seeing how the european union can achieve its aims. over the next few years, while also ensuring that there is energy security, and of course they'll be discussing tre and how that is going to play out in a post. cuz it worlds easily. it was strongly affected by a covey but reacted very well. people very disappointed and reacted the and now the government, the took the measures and from their make his under control in italy. we're very proud of these, but this is another chapter of

a very long struggle. it's not over. and so we, we still have to fight and react in italy rush and the rest of the world. this forum is seen is a key way to promote dialogue between governmental agencies and civil society. it's being held here in the beautiful italian city of verona. and it's also an opportunity to showcase the strong economic ties between russia and italy. ties have roots through the century with 2 days of exciting discussions ahead will be bringing you all the latest here on our tea this month. history was made in orbits with the 1st ever movie filmed in space and incredible technical feat made with very minimal crew. 400 kilometers above our heads. next, saskia taylor sit stolen with the creative force behind the stella project. director clim chapin co. the fascinating discussion starts right after the break.

ah, so you see this statistic that 90 percent of the wildness held by 10 percent of the population and they added millions of dollars to their network. since the pandemic, one would look out onto the american landscape and look at all the wonderful innovation, these folks have brought people to their lives. oh wait, hold on. life expectancy is down, infant mortality is up to wealth and income gap is widening to genie coefficient. looks terrible, death of despair are exploding. so i think it's natural to conclude that all this money printing is not feeding ameristock or say, is back, that is fading at tack. a stock or state rule by the least qualified for all those driven by dreamers shaped banks control center. those

with there's sinks, we dare to ask oh oh. so i have to ask you the 1st thing, is that better up or down? yeah. well it's very different. well it's a very different atmosphere in the.
