tell us that those countries can't ignore it because it threatens national security issue. but if we take the nato n e u countries, virtually all of them subscribed to certain doctrines and maintains cyber task forces. they are a cyber army on behalf of a country that's their job. european gas prices search to all time records as the continent faces a double whammy of powers shortages and freezing temperatures. sure, please. the current tension in europe is the united states full. russia had to respond as every step. that's every step. the situation was getting worse and worse and potent criticize his america and nato's eastwood expansion, noting that moscow's ready to deal with hostile actions as russia's defense chief forms that private u. s. military contract is in east and you, craig,

a preparing provocations involving chemical components and the british prime ministers, approval ratings, plummet sewell story globe. and as the fallout grows over revelations, have repeated violations and covered rules last year. at the same time as health workers lining up to accuse him of exploitation. the page, you know, there's nothing to address the pie. there's been no, no ester, i'd seen from the government to, to tackle retention within the black board. ah, life mart internationally moscow welcome to a world news at midnight with me, kevin. now in 1st the natural gas prices in europe continue to break records the commodities now around 6 times more expensive than earlier this year. peter oliver brings us up to speed. record breaking day when it comes to the price of gas in

europe. that has topped $2000.00 per 1000 cubic meters of gas for the 1st time ever. it's come about after gas brawn, the russian energy giant didn't book any gas transit through poland on the moll euro pipeline in its most very basic sense. that meant no extra gas would be arriving in germany. now, gas prong continues to live up to the contracts. it has with european nations like germany and others, but what it's not doing is sending any extra on to the market. what that means is there's an increased demand and well, not the supply as i said. so that means that prices have gone right up. in fact, they've gone through the roof this month alone. prices have risen by 40 percent since the summer. they've gone up 300 percent in that they start to take a toll on energy companies and number of them deciding that this is just too rich for their blood. and they've had served while they folded. they've had to file for

bankruptcy. the latest to do that is neck and, and strong. here in germany they supplied power to some, 13000 homes across the country. they'll not be doing that any more as they decided they just can't be part of this with the energy price. so high now, i said that gas brown continues to, i live up to the contracts which it's signed. however, that hasn't stopped european leaders from suggesting that russia is using energy is using gas supply in an attempt to try and exert political influence over some countries in europe. rogers used energy as a tool for political influence, the for instance, in moldova. and while it is strictly speaking, fulfilling its commitments on gas supplies, menaces, current refusal to increase export volumes to europe, or to refill gas from own storage facilities as a means to exert pressure on the e u. and specifically to secure the regulatory licensing of no string to the kremlin spokesman to me to repress golf as says, this isn't an issue or for the russian government that this is an issue between

europe and gas. prominent questions on this whole subject well shouldn't be directed towards the kremlin, they need to go to gas pro mm h q to mr. to serve. know what is the reason for the decrease and gas deliveries? fire the mile your pipeline with gas. now going in the reverse direction, is there a link between a suspension of supplies, the germany and the north stream to pipeline is absurd? no, there is no link. it's a purely commercial issue. and it's up to gus prompt to explain the reasons. well, when you look at the prices, it's clear to see why this is such a big issue with $4.00 to $4.00 and a half time increases across europe when it comes to gas prices. as i said, huge demand for russian gas in europe at the moment. it had been hoped that the, the nord stream to gas pipeline would be able to, to slake some of that thirst for gas. the plan was that that would be able to provide as much as 55000000000 cubic meters of gas every single year,

directly into germany, and then on towards the rest of europe. however, it's found itself snarled opener and bureaucratic process when it comes to certification. here in germany right now, we're hearing it may well not be approved until the 2nd half of 2022. this is after we had thought it would be up and running by. well now that was after the united states lifted sanctions against the nord stream to company earlier in 2021 that had previously called the let cause delays on that project. private u. s. military contract as may be preparing a provocation involving chemical components in east and ukraine, is the warning for rushes defense. chief 3rd says ministries annual meeting president potent also spoke them outlining worries about nato's eastern expansion and saying the block will be responsible for any escalation. justice just please who the contention in europe is the united states fault. russia had to respond that

every step at every step, the situation was getting worse and worse. and today we're in a situation where we have to make decisions above vladimir putin and defense minister showing go outlined the security and defense situation and russia where things stand the piece of modernization. they also mentioned that the degree of modernization, as in russia's military, is one of the highest in the world. but they also spoke about the challenges facing russia. missed the show go, for example, mentioning the more than a 100 american private military contractors who are currently on the front lines in the civil war in ukraine, which is very close to russia's borders, how they're instructing ukrainian military personnel there. and also miss the show . you mention that they have information that perhaps are american private military contractors are preparing a chemical provocation where those are so a nato continues. it's military assimilation of ukraine's territory. it's been

established that there are currently more than a $120.00 employees of us private military companies present in the finance region . they are equipping firing positions and the residential buildings and public facilities assisting, ukrainian special forces and radical arm griggs, to prepare for active hostilities. some canisters of an identified chemical components were delivered to carry out provocations in the region as your. with regards to international themes, vladimir putin himself spoke about the continuing encroachment of american and native forces towards russian borders. he reminisces about the past, for example, spoke about how close her relations were between rush and the united states. a scant decades ago when cia offices go, we're opening advising the russian government, telling them of what steps to take, what policies to pursue, where now emerge military personnel was stationed in russian nuclear silo,

overseeing things there, how cosy relations between the united states and russia were at the time, but then things began to collapse. bit by bit the united states, he said, and perhaps high on victory, a presumed victory in the cold war. we began funding, separatist and terrorist movements and organizations in chechnya for example, which led to misery and countless debts. he said new things since then had grown worse and worse. we have sheep continued the waves of expansion, nato expansion towards russia. despite the fact that nato promised russia, but that wouldn't happen after the collapse of the soviet union. the situation since then vladimir putin says, has continued to work with nato, a considering ukraine's application to join, which potentially means american missiles stationed in ukraine. the flight of those missiles would be at 10 minutes flight time to moscow. they were hypersonic

missiles, 5 minutes launch from ukraine to reach moscow, which for russia is entirely unacceptable. it leaves no time to react, which is why russia, as low as drawn its red line, which is why russia now demands security guarantees that noted, nita won't expand that infrastructure into ukraine. this is a matter in which russia's prepared to take the most the severe measures that may put in also said that even if security guarantees are given, that they can't be trusted. because the united states has a habit of manipulating or, or using international law to, to suit its purposes when it needs the un, it uses the un, it mentioned that it remembers it when it doesn't need the u. s. and forgets it exists. and similarly, the united states pulls out of internet lobster, follow other treaties at will from the intermediate nuclear force,

the street here from the european skies treaty with or without explanation. and vladimir putin says russia stands ready to guarantee its own security. would you? but those union you case, a western collies continued to push their clearly aggressive line. we will respond with the appropriate military and technical measures will provide a tough response to any unfriendly moves. and i want to stress, we have the full right to do this. let me appleton also said that the russia doesn't want any bloodshed at once. stability at once peace and corporation, but that it will take steps to ensure its own security, as he said, is that it is russia's right as it is the right of of every state. you also are made sure to mentor the brush or doesn't want exceptional special conditions for itself all at once. ease for it, security to be guaranteed. i had a talk to the defense ministry, put a brand new submarine from the pacific fleet through its paces,

launching an underwater caliber cruise missile. the weapons successfully struck. apparently it sir, practised target on mainland russia after travelling more than a 1000 kilometers from the sea of japan. of legged, british prime ministers approval rating, his nose dived to a record low forest. johnson currently has just half the support he had at the start of the pandemic. most people pulled now believe he won't be leading the government and he is time. the main reason seems to be the almost daily damning revelations and photographs suggesting that downing street staff conservative party workers, and even the pim himself violated coven restrictions last year. the latest picture published by the guardian shows boris johnson with his family and staff, sharing wine and cheese and danny st. garden, when the rest of the country was under strict laws against social mixing during the 1st lockdown. but despite the photo evidence, johnson rejects,

there was any wrong doing do you normally have wine and cheese air, where meetings with people at work, there's of meetings of people at work, talk about this is where i live and where i work are. those are meetings of people at work, talking about work and adding to the british prime minister's woes and an open letter by national health service staff for accusing him of and his government of exploiting them. it's after he asked medics to help deliver the fastest and biggest vaccination drive to stave off. the surging on the chrome variant, the health workers say they're being asked for more or more but a getting nothing in return. we would like to ask each and every one of you why, despite our incredible efforts, you continue to exploit us on behalf of the whole n h s workforce. we want you to acknowledge the damage. you have cost apologize and let someone else fix your mess. the in a chest needs to be removed from the political playground. people's lives aren't again. we spoke to one in a chess nurse who scaled back her work because of the immense pressure she told us

. she sees no effort by the government to tackle the issues medical stuff or facing where we're already seeing like widespread shortages, but all having a massive impact on patient care. and not only that, i think working under those conditions where you are short staffed, then impacts the work as, as well and, and it's kind of like a cycle, it becomes unbearable. and so that i think is a massive reason why i just stay and people walk away and drive. i myself have left the road. i was in a contracted role. i've left that now and i just do agency type nothing. the paid. you know, they've done nothing to address the pay on the 3 percent that they given, you know, inflation this year for them. so it's not felt by, by the stuff you know, why would they stay under this pressure doing miss thought the what if they're not being paid valley and they don't feel valued?

there's been no, no s that i've seen from the government to, to tackle retention within the work. i way i know so many colleagues why the facts that we haven't had to pay addressed. the fact that we've with now asked to increase the amount of in a booster jobs that we're getting and that is going to have an effect then on the services that we can offer. it's a lot, a lot of pressure at the moment and people are tired, they are devalued. that demoralized and i can't see anything that this government is doing at the moment. we're dress box of homer and pay for the case. liberal democrats told us last week to fade for the conservative party and local elections was another blow to forest johnson's leadership permit. those plummeting poll ratings. no one really believes that the garden party was in fact, a work meeting. the deputy prime minister made it worse by claiming we knew it was

a work meeting because everyone was wearing suits. it's caused me to kill and boss could have avoids all of this by simply saying, we're not going to legislate for a lockdown. we just ask people to co operate in a lockdown because no one's perfect. and it stopped double standard, which has caused a lot of grieving people who couldn't even go to their parents or friends, funerals, to feel that they have been treated like fools by the prime minister. and that's not a sustainable position. first, johnson has been the most successful party leader for the conservatives since margaret thatcher. and he has definitely been regarded as another electoral asset to write a desirable leader when it comes to adding votes. the bi election, which the consultants lost to a liberal democrats. after 200 years of holding a seat begins to call into question the one thing you could always depend on boris

johnson to deliver, which was victory without slots track record a victory and with a continuing ongoing problems and accusations of hypocrisy for assumptions and trouble. right, you want out into national, coming up death from above. it's the next generation of warfare. as rushes, formidable new military drone displays, it's prowess way the targets, both in the sky and on the ground. especially with all come up on that piece of access. i'm sorry more after the break. ah, ah, is your media a reflection of reality? ah, in the world transformed what will make you feel safer?

isolation, whole community. are you going the right way? where are you being led somewhere? direct. what is true? what is great? in the world corrupted, you need to descend. ah, so join us in the depths will remain in the shallows. join me every thursday on the alex salmon. sure. i'll be speaking the guess of the world politics. sport, business. i'm show business. i'll see you then. ah ah,

oh joe biden pushes more americans to get vaccinated is covered. so mc crohn. varian spreads rapidly across the us. and while the white us is described to stop warning that's got to speed on this, callum opens new york city yet i that didn't quite materialize. a gathering to the extremely stock warning that was predicted won't happen then. sure, people are reacting to joe biden speech. let's recall that jen, saki, the white house spokesperson, had warned that joe biden was going to get a stark warning to the on vaccinate it. that's not exactly what people heard from the u. s. president. take a listen. i know vaccination requirements popular for me. not even proper for those who are anxious to get them. my ministrations put them in place not to control your life, but to save your life. now,

during his speech, he did brag about the new vaccination centers that have opened and the new widespread ability availability of coven tests. now, one interesting thing to note about joe biden's remarks is he did actually make a point of acknowledging and thanking the previous administration for quote, making sure america was 1st to get the vaccine quote 1st to get the vaccine as the words he used. it's interesting because generally the problems of cobra in the united states are blamed on the previous administration. in this instance, he's actually acknowledging some achievement on the part of donald trump, his predecessor. now at one point the speech did get a little intense. here's what we heard, dangerous misinformation on cable tv and social media. you know, these companies and personalities are making money. it's wrong. it's a moral. i call the purveyors of these lies misinformation to stop it. stop it

now. now obviously, all this information should be opposed as a threat to public health, but how much help is this coming from joe biden, whose disapproval rating is now at 55 percent? well, over half of americans disapprove of his job is president. i, it's important to know that even independent voters in the united states who don't consider themselves to be democrats or republicans are moving away from joe biden. 66 percent of them disapprove of his leadership. there was a pole taken in december that showed that 67 percent of americans don't want joe biden to be on the ballot in 2024 while 59 percent. say they don't want donald trump to be on the ballot. so i guess the president of united states did his best. he gave a speech updating the public and calling for people to get vaccinated and take measures to protect public health. but that doesn't change the fact that the, the background is the sinking approval ratings of the biden administration and

quite a bit of disappointment among the american people kind of opening new york city. thank you. so finally for now is some of the have taken stock and funding ed for all of us. and also for the russian defense ministry that means staying ahead of the technology game. so we're going to leave you this. i was a bit of a special from a r t 's. julie shepherd oliver is looking the military's latest drone system. ah, with we're showing this british for the 1st time odyssey film. the moment a guided missile launched by rushes, a run unmanned aerial vehicle and moving at target.

ryan, if the rushing on is fast multifunctional recognizance and strike you, id is pass. a number of stringent tests has now been ordered by the defense ministry of russia and is in mass production. ah, ryan also performed successfully in ministry operations and syria. iran is the production name, but in the russian army it's in a hold it which translates as pacing holes around or in hot it's true. has a maximum take off weight of more than a ton carries a payload of $250.00 kilos. it's 8 meters long and has a wingspan of 16. me says it's klein. duration is more than 24 hours. it's almond can be placed on 3 attachment points. it kind of use corrected and then guided bombs and guided missiles in terms of it finds and capabilities a ryan can be compared with the american and key one, see great ego. these really harm is 900 and the chinese winged land,

but the tank is joined by iraq, tom and then in russia for its participation in the now gordon, a car back and steering conflicts as well. it's where it's used by neighboring ukraine in the don boss. is homicide. that voice carrying capacity is also half as much. welcome to drone began in 2011 to come for the 1st time in 2016. and in april 2020. it ended said this with the russian army. stay in a hotel turn has been a real combat in syria. it is in service with the russian army while it's younger, yet larger brother, along with other trains are being developed by the concept company here in moscow. i really need that 1st domestic unmanned aerial vehicle belonging to the international nail clause, which stands for medium altitude, long endurance, u, a v. as mentioned earlier, it can stay aboard for more than 24 hours. initially its mission was to conduct aero recognizance then night. in a wide variety of climates including in the arctic and in the desert. today,

a ryan is not only for reconnaissance, but also for strike purposes. one ground control center, they can handle several aircraft at once. the complex comprises of their rural air, crow 6, they were up to 6 large drones in one the complex, at the same time, the complex allows you to maintain your fleet controls and ensure the use of all drones in the air. what the now we're working on a new modification that will allow one control point a bit to provide symbol changes control and coordination to 20 aircraft. are you? in fact, this is already small technology also, and the complex includes a ground take off and landing point b, a ground control station and ground support facilities. this machine can lift to 150 kilos. these are optical electronic systems, video cameras and radars for strike purposes it, he's as both standard small caliber albums and weapons designed specifically for

drain by standing near by the check what it engines on. you will hardly be able to hear it around a different is distinctive feature is the low acoustic signature, which makes the device almost silent. so on a flight, 1000 meters above the, as the enemy can be taken by surprise. in order to it can fly for such a long time, the device must have a perfect ira. dynamic platform. in particular, a wing of high aspect ratio is designed on as planted, engine has low fuel consumption. iran is powered by a piston engine, which is also assembled internally by the manufacturer. that our complex has an open architecture in which allows integrating almost any payloads due to winning weapons in accordance with the customers requirements. because we produce post domestically or abroad and perform the most important thing in the u. a. v is software, both on board and external to 90 percent of it is produced in the crunched on the

group of companies. and this is the most vital and expensive work. this is a unified ground control center 4, medium and heavy. you avi's from here, the aircraft is prepared for flight systems or trucks and if necessary, it's mission is controlled during the flight. also, the control center has the function of a built in simulator. so operators have the opportunity without lifting the aircraft into the ad to train the control of its target loads, communication between other vehicles and interaction with other types of troops. we'll add the ground control center, which is capable to guide all the trends produced by the crunch type company. therefore, they call it a universal control center. a lot of official intelligence is used here. and this is how the rear, what happens, a ryan is during his combat mission flying over the firing range. dover is controlling, if remodeling it is about to capture and find a target did

by the way they do by ashley, november 2021. the company rolled out a new automated workstation, if several such workstations are installed and a ground control center, it will be possible to control as many as 20 drones at once. and finally, another challenge for ryan's manufacturer is, is the very tight lines that the minister of defense, the says for the company. that's all in order to increase the production volume of this and other larger size. drones. a new planned is being built and dibner enables it to launch is scheduled for the end of this year. so it's obvious that business got off the ground and very soon flying robles will god and protect us. u dash above oliver aussie ah

ah ah working room or should in the back. she popped in she said, well i'm getting ready to go shopping for christmas. and we, we circle butler. there was a good buy. another shooting another safe part of american life shattered by violence. the gunman was armed with an 8 hour 15, semi automatic rifle. when the issue comes home, it's time to act when we're aspire was on this issue. the other side wins by default, lady that lived over there. i was walking one of the dogs, which is why do you wear again? were you scared with nothing. you could take it off it. i think the people need to take responsibility into their own hands and be prepared if those kind of weapons

were less available. we wouldn't have a lot of the shootings that we certainly wouldn't have. the number a desk when you listen to a sequence of tones and you think x is going to happen, you know, why happen a distinctive breeding response in gauge that are relevant to how we experience reward and pleasure. while listening to some people looking at this is a kind of a kind of choreographing of our expectations. so i was diagnosed with cancer in 2005 when the doctors told me the cancer was incurable. i knew i had to make a change. so i decided to travel to one of the most toxic places in america. florida. one of florida is biggest industries and best kept secrets, is phosphate in the biggest player, it is an $85000000000.00 industry. this mosaic,

there are reports of millions of gallons of contaminated water now lowing into the florida aquifer name for all there's a chronic. oh, well you know, i don't want to hear that word polar thing, but that's what it is. i'm in 2013. my all, our family dog, my brother was 21 years old, myself and my father were all diane, rob, rob, jeff, the problem. did they brought a 100? wow. yeah. whole wrong. and they could play it. right? yeah, yeah. maybe they'll actually we're that our help is more important than with an insidious.
