with the united kingdom. ah. hello there, good afternoon. thanks for watching r t this sunday life. my will use h q moscow. my name is kevin, over here as usual with our a. we can round up some the big storage i brought you of the last 7 days. it was started with what was happening right now. it stay to the g. 20 summit in italy, then the groups 1st in person gathering. since the start of the pandemic need, as they have already discussed, the recent energy crisis cove at 19 and endorsed a deal on the global minimum corporate tax for more on there. what else we may be able to expect or not a so to ro my, your correspondent peter, all of his, their bells ringing behind you. does that set tone any real progress elsewhere? or is it largely talking, shop fate?
7:02 am
think it all depends on who you speak to, how much progress is being made at this g 20. if you talked to the protesters there were out in rome yesterday afternoon into the evening. they would say that more action needs to be taken when it comes to climate change, not just words to the effect that action will be taken. however, if you spoke to the leaders themselves, they seemed pretty satisfied with what has been done so far. in fact, on sunday morning, they were all smiles as they posed for a photo plant, the trevi fountain in rome, tossing coins into that famous landmark. one of the reasons that particularly happy is the tax deal that's being done. it was a u. s. proposal for corporate tax at a flat rates, a minimum flat rate of corporate tax around the world. and if you listen to supporters of the u. s. president and joe biden, himself, he would tell you that that is a big success. hair it that g 20 lead is representing 80 percent of the world's g. d. p. allies and competitors alike. made clear that support for strong global
7:03 am
minimum tax. this is more than just the tax deal. it's diplomacy reshaping our global economy and delivering for our people. well, what the agreement means is that it's a minimum of 15 percent tax will be levied against corporations world wide. the idea being that those countries that will see that corporate tax rate increase will be able to use that extra revenue to fund social projects in order to help people out of poverty. there are skeptics of the dealer that say that this will only benefit richer countries. the united states, for example, has a corporate tax la and corporate tax rates of 21 percent. at the moment they set to raise not to 28 percent with no real idea about where the extra generate extra revenue generates. it will be spent also, and organizations and charities that deal with attempts to eradicate poverty. not particularly convinced by this move, oxfam and facts have criticized it, calling it a mockery of fairness the world is experiencing the largest increase in poverty
7:04 am
indicates and a massive explosion inequality. but this deal will do little or nothing to halt either. instead, it is already being seen by some wealthy nations as an excuse to cut domestic corporate tax rates risk in any race to the bottom. coming out on sunday, we may well have a case or wants that forward to steps back when it comes to sorting out the awkwardness over orchestra. that was the ad, the defense pack that was signed between australia, the united kingdom on the united states. what it ultimately did was squeeze france out of a $66000000000.00 us dollar a deal to provide submarines to australia. now, on a friday we saw for you as president joe biden meet with the manual micron. the hatchet, very much buried. a handshake smiles. thank you. no, no, thank you. doing the rounds there. what we've heard, come out on sunday though, is key to one of the crucial points that was made by the u. s. president joe biden
7:05 am
said he was very, didn't say sorry, but he said that they acted clumsily from the u. s. point of view, and they hadn't been made aware of certain factors in the deal. well, scott morrison, the australian prime ministers, come out and said, hang on, joe, you did know everything about what was going on. the, the, the australian side saying that the united states side will new fine, well that they would be aging france out of this deal. certainly the message was delivered to washington whether that message was passed on to president joe biden will probably never know, but it does seem that there will remain a little awkwardness over that orcus dale for some time to come yet. got you, pete sampras, johnson of you showed of air in the line up, a bullying smiling as ever. but boy, he's got a lot to do with it home as well as that france thing. a kick in awful, still smouldering on her to love you as if i want, sadly, then a chestnut speak about she later. so you k, paramedics of raised fears of an unprecedented crisis facing the ambulance service, with one local department, even pleading with the public to think twice before calling as there are simply not

enough people to cover the workload. south central ambulance service is declared a critical incident, t 2 extreme pressures across our services. all staffing volunteers working extremely hard to respond to cause. but the volume is overwhelming. that are absolutely situations where people are promoting many, many hours, both to get in to the hospital. and then once they've been in the hospital waiting to see a doctor, cause it has a detrimental effect on anybody who's waiting for hours either in london. so sitting in an emergency department and nobody working in those services wants to see that happens, but there is a huge amount of pressure on the chest. at the moment. meanwhile, ambulances are being forced to stay in queues for hours outside hospitals, which are struggling to coat themselves with demand for beds. a number of medics of posted pictures of the current situation on social media. one paramedic was demanding urgent action after showing 25 ambulance cruise waiting to enter
7:07 am
emergency department adding. it's not even winter yet. while early this month, one patient died of waiting more than 5 hours in the back of an ambulance. we are right on the edge and it is the middle of october. it would require an incredible amount of luck for us not to find ourselves in the midst of a profound crisis. over the next 3 months, u. k. governments put the country in something akin to a war footing than to try to deal with a coven cases and gets ready for the winter flu season. troops have been trained to dr. ambulances for start, some 4000 of them are on stand by to help the n h. s. cope with a winter season. earlier to the defense secretary said, soldiers are also ready to assist with administering vaccine. testing for coven, and other general supports in hospitals. well, new daily coded cases in the u. k skyrocketed in july and they remain high ever since doctors fear those numbers combined with the flu season, could overwhelm the health system and it has chief so so what the prime minister to implement it's small stringent plan b for winter. that includes faxing passports,
7:08 am
and compulsory face mouse. although sofa, the government's been holding back on it. there are other things that the government could couldn't, could be doing. and yes, they should be absolutely seriously considering mr. at this point in time before things go too far. hospital i working has been on what we call black lab, which means that the, the beds are absolutely full of patients for a number of weeks now. and we are not coming across the whole system. many hospitals are very full with patients and we know that hospital actually been at the most efficient if they're not absolutely pull up with patients. and it does mean that it knock on effects on those patients who are waiting for urgent surgery who require in particular intensive care beds or high dependency care on not being processed not being cared for in a timely way. and we know that is the case that our 5700000 people on waiting lists within the us at present,

which is probably going to get worse before it gets better. sick news in the week, the fed a whistle blow, julie massage remaining in limbo after a 2 day expedition appeal hearing at london's hog taught. the u. s. is challenging the you case, previous decision not to extradite him to america on health grants is wanted by washington on 17 charges of espionage and one of conspiracy to hack a government computer if convicted his son, shoe exposed, alleged western war crimes, could face a prison sentence of a 175 years, although it could be months before a final verdict of the cases reached me . i. the judges just said they will take everything into consideration, but no ruling was handed out immediately. the entire day was devoted to hearing arguments before by the prosecution for the grounds of appeal,
7:10 am
why they want to appeal to judge's decision not to extra by the phone. and there were 5 grounds of appealing to the 2 main topics, or of course, san jose health. and the assurance is a diplomatic assurances given by the united states in terms of health. what the prosecution i've been trying to do is accuse a key medical, extra witness professor compliment of being disingenuous of misleading the court by concealing the identity of a son, just partner stella morris and the 2 children. we finally heard the yahoo news story, the investigative journalism that was done a few weeks ago where 30 us officials confirmed what we already knew from anonymous testimony that the c i was discussing, plans to potentially kidnap or poison julian as orange in london. and so this was brought up in the context of why couple men, why professor coleman should not disclose the identity of a song, his partner and their 2 children, because he feared for their safety. when it comes to the assurances that the united states is giving. they say that drilling function service sentence in australia, but australia has not even indicated if they will take you in his arms. this is
7:11 am
a process that takes many years. the truth is the drew and his arms will most definitely be placed in at least administrative segregation. and if not, he'll be sent to a special housing unit. so there's a wide array of tools that united states can use to break him once he's on us soil . and they most certainly will. during both days, the hearing assigned to support his rallied outside the court building. they want his immediate release and chanted, journalism is not a crime. others express growing concern over the whistle, blows out. the facts of pink floyd co founder, the long parmesan support. roger waters told us to rec, but he believes the whole case is a huge miscarriage of justice. this is an absolute nonsense that this man has been locked up for a single day. whether it's in the ecuadorian embassy or in marsh. this is, this is one of the most valuable human beings that we the human race have. amongst us. he is deeply, deeply important to the potential for this race to survive on this planet in my
7:12 am
view. that is why julian sanchez in prison because he's interfering with their coming plant. are still the planet sort of rape it to death and then destroy. it is a disgusting miscarriage of justice. look at guantanamo bay, asked shaka, alma, my friend, ask anybody who has been in the hands of the u. s. judiciary. and at any point, possibly since the 2nd world war with a did not agree. and you will find that there's no justice to be found in the united states. i'm so angry and i'm so bad and i'm so disgusted with the united kingdom. oh, i did a radio program last night. john ship, tim was on it and he was extremely eloquent. and i asked him how him, how he manages his grief and, and he was absolutely,
7:13 am
he was so moving to listen to, he says willy, he puts it to one side as it goes through his life. and his life is entirely devoted to the freeing of his son, so he can go home to his wife and children. and john says that late at night he may retreat into his melancholy. and i felt my heart lurch in my chest. as i listened to this man saying, and i felt his melancholy hit me like a, i'm a blow on my chest. we are not going on anywhere at all. and our voice is going to get louder and louder and louder until julian sanchez said, free. i can promise you that it's not often someone disappears entirely from the f b i most wanted list, but that's exactly what happened to a man is said to be a key figure. in january's capitol hill writes in washington,

7:15 am
unsurprisingly he was on the f. b i's most wanted list and was referred to as suspect. 16 for some time. s b i w s. so is seeking the public assistance and identifying those who made unlawful entry into the u. s. capital building on january the safe. 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
7:16 am
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 or 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 saw, i'm not going to violate this norman 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 epps who 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. ribs is a free man. he has never been arrested or charged nearly 10 months after july. the 6th, the f b i in justice department still refused to comment on with the eps has ever been
7:17 am
served. a search warrant the f b i 's record when it comes to things like protests and provocations is not exactly squeaky clean. 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, shirley questions like those surrounding suspect. 16 demand answers. caleb martin, r t new york. just let you know briefly present to, to the but to speak the live news events, the g. 20 summit in rome shortly as. and when that does happen, we will go to it. but meantime, a managed takeover in a state of emergency all combined or monday, the north african country of sudan that says it's top general dissolved, the country's civilian cabinets and arrested. the prime minister who was eventually released the overthrow spout wide spread outraged across the country with protests on saturday in the capital cartoon. with the military open fire to disperse the crowds and reportedly killed, at least 3 people couch is de facto rule,
7:18 am
urged people not to regard the events as a qu, saying the previous interim government had simply been completely and effective. images a chaos in sudan, lead to global condemnation with washington piling on the pressure. we've already made clear i that we are pressing pause on a significant aspects of our economic assistance to sudan. and we will look at the full range of economic tools available to us in coordination and consultation with regional actors and other key countries to make sure that we are trying to push ah, the suit, the, the entire sudanese political process back in a positive direction after this significant and warming setback, what i like, what is looting to the u. s. t. a department earlier announced it'll stop hundreds of millions of dollars in economic gay to the country in response to the military takeover. but just who will be hurt the most by that decision with more on it are senior correspondent in this day and age, almost nothing is sacred off limits. you can weaponized anything, trade,
7:19 am
culture information. it doesn't have to kill. all it has to do is hurt. in light of these developments, the united states is pausing assistance from, from the $700.00 are $700000000.00 in emergency assistance appropriations of economic support funds for suzanne. this was badly needed money for one of the poorest nations in the world, but it came of all sorts of political strings attached thick cables of them. as a door assistance often does they are weapons behave do with your dold or will cut you off. the problem is the people who get cut off usually aren't the ones that misbehaved. like when the us froze of ghana stands bank accounts. president biden is not hurting the taliban, or the current regime. this is really hurting every day. afghans and the united states will push them into further poverty. take my word for it. while in
7:20 am
afghanistan, i didn't see a single hungry taliban fighter. i saw thousands of civilians, the boy out in the streets, willing to sell family members for food because they weren't getting salaries because have gathered tons, bank accounts had been froze. it was right. that live is fantasia alluded to date to the g. 20 summit. literally, the 1st in person gathering their potent spoke her of idiolect. yesterday's addressing them again lest this then impact on every one of them. it is russia to see me just as other countries, unless you mean when you get dounia is experiencing the negative consequences of climate change, self esteem, so which is why we have oh, so unless miss buck were corrosion of soils, likable, and the melting of permafrost was you know, of human society and a desertification. so no way to get a lot of what i see that i scanned, the average temperature in russia marrow is growing faster. bullish on the global
7:21 am
earth said asleep. no, you chose, it has increased for artistic escort, almost spite was now half sure degree. and the last 10 years of school and in the arctic, even with the speed is even higher with just the way we measure muddled up. so russia is, are acting rebel named syria on the global level, around we proactively through one. and we are nuclear with the implementing all our commitments was on the l u. n. framework conventional junior climate change and the paras agreement you, william, said use and to were making their vis you consistent steps to increase the energy efficiency of our economy. the crash unity optimize the lap that power sector. but he, you know, which india and had to decrease against my products and oil production. he's got we ordinary energy, low carbon. she would energy technologies in our being actively developed. and russia is a little wooden historical and the share of almost some of the carbon free sources
7:22 am
such as and nuclear power plants. and soon the hydro wind districts have a solar power plants, but not over 40 percent or somewhere. and he's got the total energy mix, it will let all of it loses the will and then considering gas, which is the cleanest hydrocarbon fuel. so give me a little bit before i got to one of the best parameters in the world. really, the kind of when you are in that lead rush is one of the leaders in global di compensation according to an international experts usually wouldn't his new jaws submitting him? not the last 20 years. we've had an annual, we had a decrease of 2.7 percent shown stability moon lava. we knew that issue in your area is that the normal price was energy consumption unit and now we have a program. it's built up to 2035 version of immune to increase the energy efficiency of our economy. i be speaking, which will be an important step is to achieve our objections. you just did you set the reward to achieve carbon neutrality of either at or by the 2016 that we observe
7:23 am
. and we have made a public commitment heck, him to speech and disregard ernest as do it. and we're not only after carbon neutrality. now what, what we aim for just the eastern shore. we're good that the total sum of greenhouse gas emissions. oh, i see. yes sir. less than in the ease. and where's the ledger? over the next 3 decades, william of here, hand it was play dough gospel, which we expect to have a long term with plans and loc, some collaboration with our neighbors. if alleged the new playlist of you q. and to little news to you on the basis of technological neutrality principles. we considering different technologies for power generation in the week. and as for our solar power, dunham, she pleaded us, we should jump up in the art was she didn't carbons, orchestra rosena footprint as we are now, is higher in this industry than in the nuclear,
7:24 am
the st electricity by 4 times. but national new and strategic environmental project, it needs to be promoted where we're keeping you can expect things that we need have a rating of such projects. nickel goes off in terms of their impact. so their contribution due to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions for it even what i act, it was my through she, me and the projects included and such a rating for i see such as the project. 34 forest conservation in russian latin america. but middle nuclear might even be more effective than investments in renewable energy sources. a sure your problem in some countries and what would you please? and a shift solving was the none of the global warming problem not actually is something let requires more than just producing emissions. yes or i see company to at the least improve our absorption capacity in russia has until an important potential in this regard. do we have or was the me, muddy forests, the tundra,
7:25 am
all knew me, agricultural land, what they sell and sees when you're going to shift in the past so that we intend to improve the quality of governance wish. and the forestry sector assurity to really towards store with forests and to mitigate and expand other to flow territories, emergency product, virgin land, you know, we've been with you with a little bit of these efforts. open up with new avenues for international corporations as well. and if you wish for decades to come law by them, it was easier. and this will be an important contribution on the climate track that the much just keep it all around. the new 30, implementing climate and in nature conservation measures at the g 20 level. you should be the basis for formation. it probably won't be much interesting unified, fair and transparent. the rules for climate government. sure that they need to be based on recognized models of accounting and go up by monitoring and
7:26 am
climate absorption measures. we need to have a comprehensive approach with the close linkages. he was who stepped me to develop the economy and the well being of our people as our colleagues, that thank you, president post and talk and then i'm just slightly up some it before we go off a here he was talking to the g. 20 and roman via tele links yesterday, but he had a lot to say this time about climate change and the worries for russia, he said average temperature is going more than other places. here in russia said the country was taking steps to address it in low compet energies investing in the nuclear hydro and wind and solar. he said 40 percent of the total energy mix was low compet, energies, nuclear, hydro, wind, and solar. he also went on to say that russia is one of the leaders in d colonization, according to would export. over the last 20 years, he said massive progress has been made. and the next target's been set for 2035, for the big game of being carbon neutral by 2060,
7:27 am
he also reiterated that the long term plans for collaboration with russia's neighbors to act on a basis and to bring in technological neutrality principles. so everyone's working together around the world. and what is it cause a big global problem? president putin contributing there to the g 20 in rome, just left 27 minutes past 2 in the office in moscow. that's the way the week conduct and some of our stories on that big live news event. we wanted to bring you kevin, in saying, thank you for watching this channel. we are. are to international ah, ah, ah ah

7:30 am
and for the world to discuss that now joined by an a to leave that senior fellow at the quinta institute for responsible state cross in washington, d. c. dr. lehman is great to talk to thank you very much for finding the time. hello. now i'm sure that the closing of the native lays in office in moscow and russian mission to brussels didn't come as a big surprise to you. there weren't functioning any way, but i think there's something noteworthy about the 2 sides, not even trying to keep up appearances anymore. what do you think? yes, i mean, it's another step downwards. and it also illustrates the absence of coordinated thinking in washington because clearly this nature decision would not have been taken without the agreement of washington. the biden administration at the moment seems to be anxious to reduce tension with russia, hence the visit of newland moscow. and the fairly cool re.
