and a chest was completely wiped out from a ransomware attack. if you are coming in to a clinic, because you had a test or you had an operation, they can find your records. they had to go back to pen and paper. i mean ah ah, we doesn't and then you must give us the guarantees it is up to you and you must do it immediately. president po, to lashes out at night, has eastwood expansion, as he answers questions during his annual news briefing. he also responded to, to a question about the energy crisis, noting europe's paying record prices after did ching affordable gas contract with metro and but no, said the european commission, we must use market terms. the market will regulate well here's how is regulated

with $2000.00. 1000 cubic meters. you're welcome. also coming up to the u. s. s. k. off. so weights the world without its leadership, despite many countries, still reaping the consequences of american involvement. and we report for more tony theo pier were claims of fake news and bias in western mainstream medias. being blamed for, exacerbating the term all ah hello and welcome to have international will use it a p. m. from moscow with me, kevin owen, 1st and the annual end of here media briefing by the russian president vladimir potent wrapped up earlier. it lasted for a total of 4 hours. though ortiz, senior correspondent, or a gas div brings us the key points. this is an opportunity for,

for journalists from all manner of outlets small, large international for, to gather together and to ask, puking, ah, the most pressing questions that they have. but that includes a journalist from small provincial outlets in russia. people forget have vos, russia is 11 time zones at spans, and there's a lot of questions the journalists want to ask. so we heard questions ranging from, from issues with mortgages and provincial towns to big hitting questions. lou did questions even from foreign journalists, asking vladimir putin if he can guarantee that russia won't attack you crave. so will you guarantee unconditionally that you will not invade ukraine or any other southern country? now, shaggy civilization erections will not depend on negotiations. they will depend on unconditional compliance with russia. security, in the sense we've made it clear that any further movement to the east is unacceptable. we're not threatening anyone. we didn't come to the u. s. a. u. s.

borders no, they came to ours. not an inch to the east, that was a nato guarantee in 1990. so what became of that, they fooled us. we've seen 5 waves of nato expansion and you keep demanding some guarantees from us. you must give us the guarantees it is up to you, and you must do it immediately right now, instead of talking about it for decades. he also spoke about the other thing that marcia has been charged with a suspected of manipulating. and that is the guy gas market in, in europe. he says, well, what we're hearing from various outlets is baseless and senseless. germany for example, is buying gas at $57.00 times below market price. we're and then they're using that gas to perhaps celadon, to poland, which is paying an entirely different price because it insisted on trading with russia at market prices. now, the gases or the above $2000.00. well, it is ruinous,

ruinous for both you citizens who have seen their household built for electricity go up for 500 percent ruinous also for businesses which year which are seeing an even larger rise, the road to him with bright and what they are lying to us they're confusing, every one gets promised, shipping the entire volume requested by its counter agents. in accordance with the existing contracts, they're even increasing the volume by around 20 percent. they're increasing shipments to europe. and i believe the gas from is the only company that does that . u. s. supply as a not supplying the european markets enough. europeans used to think they had premium markets, but they were left behind. we're talking about liquefied natural gas. americans are transferring their shipments to the premium markets to latin america, brazil, china, south korea, japan and the price is kick, we were saying we must not destroy long term contracts. but no, said the european commission, we must use market terms. the market will regulate it. well,

here's how it's regulated. we have 2000 dollars, 1000 cubic meters, and you're welcome to the other thing that popped up here was a shoe of recent scandals and russia involving jails. prisons and the torture of suspect, said inmates by prison authorities. these were both, both incidents were most shocking because there was graphic footage of it happening . there are more cases where we haven't seen footage. this is something that has been a sore point among russians for, for many years. and vladimir putin was asked, what is being done about this. he said that the, the russian government is taking action. there are number of criminal proceedings against her former prison institution, the staff members, as well as the fact that peter, this isn't a problem only in russia. this is a problem in even in developed countries. and it is very difficult to put an end to it. then them solution in this case is necessary festival to rely on states for of the investigation. 17 criminal cases had been initiated and obeying under

investigation you have named only one or 2 people, but there are a 1000 or more than a 1000 dismissed and their criminal cases opened against them. yes, there is a problem. we need to work with it and rely on a conscientious, fully fledged investigation of those crimes. and these clearly crimes that have been committed, we need to bring it to an end so that everyone understands that punishment for these offences is inevitable. i was sir lucky enough, also to be able to ask vladimir putin question, my question was about canceled culture phenomenon as well as woocommerce that have so pervaded western politics. sometimes in very extreme forms. for example, for example, the incident with with j. k. rowling. and how the axes that she made famous with her harry potter movies have turned against and asked lead me up, who knows what he thinks about the social justice culture and whether it is coming to russia as so been this national officer, the peculiarity and strength of our millennial society lies in the fact that russia

has evolved as a multinational and multi confessional state. and we've learned to respect each other. and this means to respect the basis of our traditional spiritual culture, him and all the peoples of the russian federation of a certain internal moral protection against such retrogression. and well, this must be fought not by direct instructions and shouts, but by the support of our traditional values. not the biggest crowd that attendance today because of her pandemic safety measures there's social distancing in effect here. there's a mass mandatory masters, of course. there was also humidifiers and all sorts of antiseptics prayers, inaction today, but there were much bigger crowds and previous years. nevertheless, this, the session lasted for fear for 4 hours, 3 hours, 56 minutes. i believe though, people defer on how long. exactly. and this is this year's vladimir prudence press conference here in the and potent on to 55 question series annual press conference

. and one of them was on the recognition of afghanistan's new authorities. alexander boy gave us more details on their it's a question now for there was but for the united nations, because there are a couple of resolutions dot recognized taliban as, as a terrorist organization or as an organization involved in terrorist activities. and for that to be removed, that there has to be an international consensus and actually looks like this consensus and maybe within the range because for all the disagreements that sound the ukrainian, the issue of the russian authorities happened quite complimentary. the reason why the russians have sorta played along with this new situation is that they believe that the regional consensus will be much helpful in if not bringing peace to afghanistan down at least making sure that, you know, terrorism doesn't spread beyond its borders and bigger goal would be to how the

eurasia, it's sort of to do, raise the center of erasure from the poles there. you're half china and want to pull. you have rush on the other pull. you have india there as well. so there is a hold that is the local players, regional players can agree of not supporting various quasi actors there that perhaps out with due time the, this taishan can calm down and develop in accordance with the local customs. traditions and you know, social conditions rather than trying to build, there is something that could not be supported from, from the grassroots. he also talks to the question about anti russian sentiment. let's just listen to what he said about that. go good to go. what's going on is the creation of an anti rush or on this territory with a constant pumping in of modern weapons and a brain washing of the population. now, can you imagine russia to constantly live with this, with an eye on what your weapon systems are being delivered?

and then on the cover of weapon systems, radicals being pushed to resolve the issue in dumbass. in a military. he clearly sees the conflict in ukraine as a consequence of the sustained take its long attempt to contain russia. as he put it, he strongly feel that there is a strong tendency in the west to try to mess up with russians development or china's development. and it was once again calling for putting it aside and allowing each country to develop in accordance with its own history and culture, its own value system, its own goals and its own abilities. we spoke to professor richard verna, re banking and development economist had told us the wes should review their policies on russia. crane is an important neighbor of russia. russia is the most important, maybe a few grain. so that relationship is actually clearly quite important. as for these

2 countries and also for europe, it is unfortunately sort of the, for the point of tension and friction between the us and made so interests on the one hand. and then the 2 political interests of, of russia on the other. whereby we have to keep in mind that it's been really nato that has constantly moved eastwards since 1990. it seems that the russian position and certainly in terms of the economics of it has actually strengthened. and of course, also in those days, the sanctions imposed on russia have strengthened the russian economy because thanks these restrictions, russia is actually developed, it's domestic economy more and expanded as a k. so sort of in port substitution of that 60 b, the long term beneficial for russia. so what we see that russia seems to be getting stronger and stronger in all this. so i think the west should just to review that

policies the future or the world that american leadership might be grim and chaotic, according to secretary state down to the blinking then. but next is our t's nicky irons been fighting out there are quite a few countries reeling in the aftermath of washington's help. have you ever wondered what the while it might be like without the united states? i think chaos. that's what it thinks when we're not engaged. when we don't lead, then one of 2 things happens. either some other country tries to take our place, but probably not in a way that advances our interests and values. or no one does. and then you get chaos. yes, the us have use this magic touch to bring peace and harmony to many a state far and wide. one fine example operation enduring freedom, better known to you and i as the us invasion of afghanistan. following the

september, the 11th attack, the u. s. entered the country with a mission to hunt down the summer, been logged and unpunished. the taliban government to the law was most of the country since $996.00. the promise was one of retribution, the goodies defeating the bodies. we must rid the world of terrors, or children and grandchildren can grow up in freedom. we are not nation building again. we are killing terrorists me in the, in the they call it collateral damage to you and i. that's the innocent people in the

wrong place at the wrong time when 10 civilians, including 7 children, were killed in an air strike. the military initially defended it only a month later, did they acknowledge it was a tragic mistake, and yet none of the military personnel involved will face any kind of punishment. then consider the hundreds of other similar cases exposed by wikileaks. in reality, the kind of peace, the u. s. has brought to the country, has left its people so terrified, they've run for their lives and the 6000000 off guns. i've either been displaced internally or have fled the country altogether. fueling a refugee crisis that continues to reverberate across europe. by the time it withdrew, it had become america the longest war, and yet in its wake, it left an alarming news to wet. i washed money out of with

the gold on then there's iraq, as america ended his time in afghanistan, it's next step was to announce the end of active combat for its troops in iraq. though the picture won't change too much, some $2500.00 service members will remain on the ground even in the coming year. it was 2003 when the us approach the un to make the case for invading iraq, citing saddam hussein stockpiles of weapons of mass destruction. and we will remember how that ended. and yet, more than a 1000000 iraqis are estimated to have lost their lives as a result, along with thousands of american troops and the outcome, widespread sectarian violence and the rise of islamic state. and then there's syria. after humming and hiring the u. s. centered syria in 2014 shifting from working quietly behind the scenes to support rebels to overt displays

of us force. i have resisted calls for military action because we cannot resolve someone else's civil war through force, particularly after a decade of war in iraq and afghanistan. the images from this massacre sickening, a crime against humanity and a violation of the laws of war. big promises were made like defeating isis. by late 2014, the $500000000.00 spent training. what was supposed to be $5000.00 anti isis assyrian rebels, had managed to successfully train about 5. so once again, why that is goodwill on both sides and the really good chance for success. the u. s . has secured the oil among the many u. s. military for raised their promise, always the same one of stability, peace and freedom. but with the growing list of foreign interventions, 10 sour perhaps is kind of the u. s. consider a career change from the global policeman. tony blinking has a very difficult job and that is to try and put a good face on a,

on bad policy on an administration that you know, promised the moon the can even launch. we haven't had a foreign policy success in decades or invasion of iraq in 2003, of course, predicated on over a decade of, you know, sanctions based containment of saddam hussein. that change the entire middle east, which in turn gains the entire world. not for the better either. so, you know, the united states as a, has a problem. we are in a position where we have the, the power, the, the accumulation of power to, to make this stand and continue to make the stand. and right now, there's not too many nations that can stand up and prevent us from doing it. it doesn't make it right. we've seen the consequences of this. but for the moment, the united states, you know, is a, is a superpower. lacks

a moral compass. still to come in and reels on the sway of extremely serious allegations from fake war coverage to child sex claims against former cult produces. what kind of the details? official break ah, when you listen to, if he thinks of tone and you think x is going to happen. you know, why happen? distinctive bringing responses in games that are relevant to you. how we experience reward and pleasure. listening for some people looking at this is a kind of a kind of choreographing of our expectation. mm. oh no, i was wrong when i just don't move. i mean

you move yes to shape out this thing becomes the african and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground. join me every thursday. i'm the alex silent. sure. and i'll be speaking to guess from the world politics. sport. business. i'm sure business. i'll see you then. mm. oh. what again, the authorities, me few peer a demanding that western mainstream media stop spreading, fake news. they claim the unbalanced coverage of the civil war, and that it's biased towards the rebels fighting the government. people have taken

the streets around the world to support the elected ethiopian government rallies have also been held. ne, cnn's los angeles bureau over it to the people demanding the u. s. and it's western allies stop interfering in the war torn country. but his pull a slayer has the latest from the philippine capital, the government and people of p o p. o of range over the wasted media coverage of what is happening in the country. the more any yeah. wearables belonging to the tiegram people's liberation army, p l. a. have been in the world in a bit help wall, trying to overthrow the democratically elected governments. instead of remaining neutral mainstream western media has chosen to take sides majority of your current any therapy, as well as a broad, strongly feel that cnn has covered the conflict over the past year in a manner that is highly biased and detached from context. and you know, times in 6 on the piece, if he falsely claiming that it was the government of prime minister at the ultimate

cnn has in fate a much better. 8 news anchor with the largest ethiopian television channel has monitored and reported on the false reports. the channel continues to spew out. for example, when t p, a live mart used to abby suburban, you know, they are at this 60 kilometer away from abby's. c. edna reported that i'd be saab about is under siege by t p, a. lift these completely tech neils and that they used tech picture another. the chip in, i less transferring we plan to, to great region, but impractical. the to pin i had lies is not doing that to use factually, but cnn's furnace method in order to attack the each your pin economy. how does he ever published a video clip on facebook with the heading thousands of to grands of wasted in

ethiopia? it shows a video of vigilantes and states that they are looking for to grands. but what it doesn't mention is that these 100 aunties were holding a close from the government to go out and protect their own neighborhoods against to grands who were coming in, looting and killing people. on november 26th, the french state owned international media office, france 24 reported that some t p l. a fighters had reached debra, seen that some 50 kilometers from edison at the back. it was simply untrue, as picked up by fact finding organization in the capital city. yeah. wants to sailor falsity. but it's, it's, it's becoming that the really fucked how to becoming boarding experts agree the mainstream press is talking with one voice, suggesting a coordinated effort behind the scenes and not only the media. they enjoyed the

rights groups like amnesty or human rights, which they also collect these reports in the sample assembler reports. and then today congress man data plan union. and then they use it to impose sanctions, european government. if it's clear that when the media is woefully and deliberately choosing to misinforming audiences, it's unfortunate because during war time no payment is credible. reporting is urgent. policy via r t at is about the you in high commission of human rights as both the government and the rebels are committed. war crimes on crimes against humanity during the crisis. and if you'd like to find out more on the main street, ladies in time to meet the parent who might be profiting from it, do have to cite t dot coms here. and that's just one of the major controversies, sir,

enveloping the scandal hit network cnn at the moment, a long time producer for disgraced prime time host chris cuomo is pleaded not guilty over child sex trafficking charges court documents reported by folks news allege that joe griffin tried to pay off witnesses and offered a woman $30000.00 in january. it's claimed also send $4000.00 to a family member of a 9 year old. he's accused of assaulting. griffin was indicted this month and allegations of attempting to lew miners for sexual activities and co scales, as young as 7 years old to go to his home. he faces a maximum life sentence in prison. if convicted cnn says the charge against your griffin. a deeply disturbing, this is not the 1st sex scandal ad cnn recently this month. so network father chris quote, for allegedly for alleged rather misconduct after you helped his brother andrew, who was then your government to fight off a sexual harassment case set in stone. lehman was recently accused to have sexually

assaulting a bar tender and last year's c n. n. legal analyst jeffrey toobin was allegedly called performing a sex during a work related video goal. i think attributes learned chan suspects the scandals will dense in ends ratings. the charges that john griffin is facing, they are not capricious. they are not merely based on a. he said, she said, situation. there are evidence of payments at text messages that duly people to believe authority, specifically that he has been at paying underage girls of for sexual favors, as well as trying to involve their mothers to varying degrees. he is engaged in grooming, and some would argue as well sex trafficking, many mainstream media outlets not just seen on themselves. have, i think, been a little bit hesitant to talk about this issue. even though we can only imagine what the reaction would have been if this had been someone, for example, on the fox news team or the trump team that had been discovered doing the exact same things overall as cnn's credibility has been shipped away, especially over the trump administrations years,

a lot of people just no longer believe that they are a fair and unbiased source of news. and it's just not a good look for a network that is already struggling to keep up a positive public appearance. and sadly, the only time cnn has been, i think, really disgust widely lately has not been for their amazing journalism or content. it has been because of these, these negative new stories involving their personnel. if the feds are alleging that not only did john griffin engage in these terrible behaviors, but he also then try to pay off a witness to remain silent. i don't think we have much reason to take john griffin at his word. and i think the fact that he has engaged in these things shows that as a person, there is not much he is not willing to do when it comes to preserving his own freedom. thomas workers have run to new york of what they so the company's reckless disregard for safety and union busting policies is going to wave a criticism of how it treats stuff up to 6 died when it was collapse during the tornado. recently in illinois kellum open recalls, so we're here in time square,

and as you can see behind me, there's a large demonstration of amazon workers and their supporters. now the main talking pointed, this demonstration is worker's health and safety. here the new york vase, amazon worker, is one adequate protections from coven 19 as they go to work every day. but the whole country is reacting to the incident where we saw a tornado that hit an amazon warehouse, killing 6 amazon employee that was earlier this month. december 10th, and the country is still reacting to that horrendous news. many questions are being raised about jeff days else. the billionaire ceo owns amazon and whether or not he's really concerned about the safety of his workers. this is what some of the protesters, amazon workers and their allies had to say to us when we spoke to them earlier. those workers were not allowed to leave. they weren't allowed to have their phones . we saw the screenshots,

amazon is letting us leave. the van driver said they were told that if they didn't come back with their vans empty, they would not have a job. the next day. they were saying we need to go. there was a storm and the manager say no, you have to stay. you are not allowed to eat. that's like a 100 years ago with the triangle shirtwaist factory. lacquers work between 10 and 12 hour shifts. totally isolated on the outside world. and we are here. so there man, among things hasn't paid. amazon has shown itself to be incapable of protected workers, lives incapable of doing anything but putting prophets over people's lives, over safety. how many more people in our class after di, how many people have to die to like, be working this inhumane like this at the speed in these warehouses to get these packages out there? this is impossible. i absolutely was not able to go to the bathroom, not able to take a break, not able to, to have time off of sick pay. no,

nothing like of course people are going to dine now. protesters, we've also been highlighting the fact that while the pay of amazon employees is considerably low, jeff bezos, the billionaire ceo, seems to have avoided the tax bill and is not really paying his fair share of taxes . he recently spent a light, a lot of his own personal well on a trip to outer space. now the protesters here say that the conditions in amazon warehouses are unacceptable. worker's rights are not being protected. many people calling out this huge international corporation. caleb mob artsy new york date it was. i saw it's he's so world news at 8 pm from moscow with me. kevin, i would thanks for watching on a very good evening. ah ah

well, technology is a very big industrial and there's a lot of opportunities for hackers. movie lives, not him, but he didn't bring the law in the country you're dealing with. why arrest him that the major cybersecurity challenge is the sovereignty of laws that cyberspace is no borders. new sovereignty we ended up with, for example, the national health service in the u. k. that a chess was completely wiped out from a ransomware attack. if you were coming in to a clinic, because you had a test or you had an operation, they can't find your records. they had to go back to pen and paper. with the cam, dana christmas is on and with it being too late to ship. if you are looking for a last minute gift, you're going to have to do so in person. but retailers were worried, fears of any variance occur.
