protest have been driven by long simmering resentment over disparities and wealth was the most violent classes erupt. and mattie in the south, east of the country, reporting from their next senior correspondent regarding the of, with details of the destruction that's been unleashed. it had been said to say that the peaceful protests and kazakhstan caused all that much economic damage. it, it was of the peaceful protests. it was the riots the mayhem and the looting afterwards. that of a scant days has caused more than $200000000.00 in damage to the country. mostly here in the city of amity and those are preliminary estimates. the real damage is expected to be much, much more kazakhstan has said repeatedly that it believes these wasn't spontaneous . it was organized, looting with more systematically hitting shopping centers and businesses at the shopping center, c, c t, v. cameras court. the may him in this shopping center and elsewhere. looters,
4:07 pm
of course, went for easiest pickings 1st that his electronic shops, jewelry stores, as well as atm. this, for example, was a food shop, not a lot left aside from a few broken gadgets. shelves were cleared in minutes, security could do nothing but watch and police were engaged in fatal fire fights with armed gangs elsewhere. and the looters went to town. there's very little doubt that this was plaid because the people that came here and did this, brought the right equipment. it takes a lot to get into cash machines, but they manage to do. it's taking the cash cassette. whose historical bullshit. i don't want this to be happening. of course it was scary. we stayed home with almost these were not all people. we were all resting after the new year's celebrations. we were, some foreigners,
4:08 pm
were doing all this is we were waking up or people just went out to the square to peacefully protest and then left and then it all a ruptured. look over the got there. i heard some kind of running around voices. so i looked out of ela, would most likely they knocked out the doors of some shops. there are many electronic stores on the street level and, and then they got into the car and left. there was no police which wasn't any civil out. we won't, they destroyed everything. people were in danger of being killed. it was scary. it's good that we live far away. it didn't reach us. everything was awful, that there is no street lighting yet. and people are not turning on the lights in their homes. people are afraid. there were different people on the streets. at 1st the protests were peaceful monday. he should have sobers cosette. what can a pensioner say? i'm sitting at home. i'm afraid to go out. it's good that we have peacekeepers now . it was a terrifying time for civilians. many hid in their homes, turning off the lights to avoid attention as gangs lay waste to the city of alma
4:09 pm
t. there was nothing they could do no, when they could call for help. until the peacekeepers cave ah ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, at the now secure airport of almighty evacuations are underway. russians and other nationals are being evacuated abroad, charter flights and military cargo planes. what they went through can only be described as an ordeal. rational book, and yet it was scary. of course, there was no informational communications. russia helped me a lot of it. i'll get back to paris. i have to explain that how bad the situation
4:10 pm
here is. they don't report it on the news. france is not organizing anything yet. i do not think as they say in france, that it is bad that the russians have arrived. this is assistance to the country, the situation, and the citizens of russia. yes, more than that now. it's a more or less normal situation. thank god. we were waiting for these planes to evacuate us. we're stuck with face. the crowd was armed. we'll leave it in the hotel next to the square. we said however, she was burning flash grenades were frown, so it was very scary. it's scary because i was born here and it has seeing all the events that happened and that happening. but everything seems to be getting better . of them is the physical socrates could have put down the rights on their own. but how long would that take? perhaps there would have been even more casualties. all in all about a 100 people are being evacuated on this one military flight,
4:11 pm
but altogether about a 1000 people have contacted the russian consulate and thus to be evacuated out of our mighty alone, just just one city and they will be evacuated over about 10 or so flood what authorities have told us that they expect more people to contact the counselors into request evacuation among them for a national. there's no more fighting in alma t though occasional fly flights are still being reported outside. the city now begins a long process of healing for a population that truly believed. nothing like lease could happen to them. ah. okay, away from that next and what could be seen as a caustic opener? ahead of crucial talks this week, u. s. secretary, stay down to leap lincoln's claim, let him a po to wants to restore the old soviet union, and russia is
4:12 pm
a gun to the head of ukraine. former defense secretary leon panetta said a few years ago that what he believes drives putin is a desire to restore the old soviet union. do you agree? i think that's right. to make actual progress. it's very hard to see that happening when there's an ongoing escalation. when russia has a gun to the head of ukraine, with a 100000 troops nearest borders, the possibility of doubling that on very short order. moscow in washington, currently embroiled in a diplomatic and political crisis, the u. s. accuses russia of a build up of troops at the border of ukraine. moscow in turns pledge to defend the don bus region if there was any military escalation there. some are concerned that the u. s. is trying to curb brushes legitimate activities to this is of course, a reflection of the general us strategy. they have their national interests in every country. russia can't have its national interest. but all the while the
4:13 pm
united states has its national interest all over the world. i have no doubt that the west, as in the case of but a roof will use the situation. first of all, in terms of propaganda and moscow, ahead of wednesdays talks between russia and nato says it won't come to prussia from washington. it follows reports the by the ministrations were here on tough sanctions against russia. if it invades ukraine, russia will not bow to us pressure and will not accept any concessions. the unilateral approach proposed by the u. s. nato can't be used as the basis for discussing security guarantees. these high level talks to avoid further escalations over ukraine are set to take place between the united states and russia on monday. but before anyone has even sat down at the negotiating table, the u. s. is already threatening big economic sanctions. biden's administration says that russia is planning to invade ukraine, even though moscow has time and time again. it is said, it is not planning to do so. so it did sure seems interesting that the white house
4:14 pm
would say it's going into these negotiations without optimism. while it seems like it's ready to torpedo the negotiations before they even began. we're going into these meetings with a sense of realism, not a sense of optimism. we are willing to see whether or not rush it comes to these talks with a spirit of seriousness, willing to discuss these issues in a concrete results oriented way. was like you were saying equilla them she themselves up somehow now, will these talks are set to be held on the backdrop of heightening tensions with ukraine. they're also set to take place alongside a proposed treaty by russia for security guarantees between itself and nato. moscow's proposal primarily seeks to stop the for the further eastward expansion of nato into the former soviet sphere. this is something that russia said it was guaranteed many years ago. back when the former soviet president mikhail gorbachev was in power. however, the us state department has called moscow's proposal. a list of non starters and
4:15 pm
nato officials have also echoed that sentiment saying they will not outright reject any countries that are looking to join the military alliance. so with nato officials in washington, seemingly unwilling to consider russia's terms, it remains to be seen how effective these talks are going to be in a big week. coming out, we'll former pentagon security ellis, mike maloof told me bring can statements paved the way for moscow to be built fall by the west once again. well, i think he definitely lay the groundwork for a negative approach. it. many of his allegations follows a particular narrative that they have to maintain to show that russia remains the bad guy just, just like they blame russia now, for bringing in troops into cars. extend one is part of a, of a general military alliance that exists there. these guys just have this problem with russia, and they want to try and contain moscow from all,
4:16 pm
from all sides. russia has legitimate spheres of influence in that region. there's no question about it. they got russia, russian ethnic people living in those areas. the same and dom, boston ukraine. those 2 elements are not unrelated as far as i'm concerned because it's my belief that like we saw in ukraine in 2014, with the a qu, from the west, instigated by the west. we're seeing the same thing in catholics down right now. in preparation for these talks, coming up, anger rumbles on in europe this weekend, of the new covey restrictions being rolled, that across the constantly across it. when the week he continues with me, kevin, only after this primitive
4:17 pm
ah ah ah, what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy even foundation, let it be an arms race is an offense, very dramatic development. only personally and getting to resist. i'll see how that
4:18 pm
strategy will be successful. very difficult time. time to sit down and talk. ah, i watching the weekly life with me. kevin, on both sides breaking news, were telling you about earlier in the program for new york, at least 19 people have died in a huge blaze at our high rise bronx apartment block 9 children are understood to be dead as well. another 5 dozen people were injured with 13 remaining in the critical condition and all spelled out his color. moping is seen the so go over to now, can i look at that building behind you really horrific some awful accounts of what's going on there in the last few hours here. sure. we're right here on the scene and it's this building behind me that you can see that went up in flames. new york city is mayor eric adams is saying that this is the most serious buyer in
4:19 pm
modern new york city history. this was a situation where as you just heard, 19 people are dead. 9 of them are children who died. 13 people remain in critical condition with a massive amount of injuries that have taken place. now, as you can see behind me, even though the blaze has at this point been put out, there is still a huge immobilization of the new york city fire department. over 200 fire fighters were mobilized for this emergency efforts. and people from around the community are just shocked. now, it's interesting to know that there was another serious fire in new york city just yesterday. and we are, we are seeing kind of a rise in these dangerous and deadly fires taking place across the city. now, all across social media, in the aftermath, in the immediate aftermath of the fire, we saw some heretic, seen as you can see right there, we saw you know, flames pouring out of windows in the building. we thought people trying to get out of the building was an emergency situation. many floors of this high rise apartment
4:20 pm
building are just completely, completely burned out. and in addition to that, many people are pointing out. this is hitting a particularly low income area. you know, the bronx is the poorest, the county in the entire united states, a lot of low income working people, a lot of immigrant communities. and they've just been devastated. people are asking questions at this point about safety in the city and maybe the state, the cities, fire and safety regulation need to be updated because of what's been happening recently. it's been quite a devastating scene. we're getting ready for sunset here in new york city, but there are still crowds of people still all kinds of firefighters on the scene. a local community residents are looking on and wondering how this could have happened. a very serious fire that happened here in the bronx. terrible start to the new year, or i will keep us posted thanks for that kind of open the but to for the we can from fierce protest or up to the major cities across the country. and so prices was
4:21 pm
police over mandatory vaccine passports, and other coves restrictions to thousands demonstrated nationwide over the weekend with right police resulting in some cases the buttons and take us to try and restore order. ah, protestors took to the streets of songs on saturday in the cities of paris. nice and i've been on to protest against the covert pass. the seems turned violent with police using tear gas and battens against many of the protesters a similar throw back to the scenes that we saw in late december. now this is despite the fact that on monday you had as many as 400000 people testing positive for covert in france. it comes as the french president emanuel micron used vulgar
4:22 pm
language against people who've chosen to be unvaccinated. his comments were to clyde across the french public and across the political spectrum, and he made them as the national assembly debated a law that would see unvaccinated people being banned from much of public life. it is expected that that law will be introduced in the coming days. this comes as massive protests against covert continued across europe. in vienna. there were fumes and a lot of noise as protestors demonstrated against the vaccination and against covert restrictions. here in germany, in the city of magda burg, thousands of people took to the streets. i
4:23 pm
that seems to line and with the police using tear gas and battens to try and disperse the crowd. there were scenes of protests in many other cities across the country, including the capital berlin. at the same time, the german hotel and restaurant association has issued a statement saying that these latest restrictions are a disaster for businesses and have a negative impact, particularly on restaurants, who rely heavily on wilkins. and they have urged the government to provide urgent assistance. the need is being guided by the latest message from the world health organization stating that although the latest variant, omi khan is list via, than the previous variant of delta, particularly amongst those people who have been vaccinated in no way. can it be classified as mild? just like previous variance, omicron is hospitalized people and it is killing people. in fact,
4:24 pm
the soon army of cases is so huge and quick that it is overwhelming health systems around the world. it is expected that there will be more protests in the coming days, as governments across europe continue to tighten restrictions and introduce mandatory vaccines to try and stop the spread of covered. we'll assume that when you think a green energy, you may think of solar panels or wind turbines, whoever, amid a fuel crisis these days, the e u now wants to include natural gas, a nuclear power, although that particular plan to truck to plenty of criticism with germany calling it green washing, shawna davinsky. good morning. a new year and a new spat is brewing between you members. bickering has a rapid with state, split over how energy from nuclear and gas susan should be classed in the future. the you won't to categorize investments in some of these projects as being green, but others argue this is essentially green washing label and nuclear energy as
4:25 pm
sustainable is wrong. this is a high risk technology. it is questionable whether these greenwashing will find acceptance on the financial market. at all that we think nuclear technology is dangerous. we still think the waste issue is resolved. we expressly reject the assessment on nuclear power under the commissions proposal investment, the new nuclear energy facilities should be classified as a group if they meet certain technical standards. now that lead to accusations that the commission is destroying the credibility of the european eco label for financial investments with germany leading the charge of nations against these proposals, but could put it in direct collision. of course, with the blocks of the heavy weight that is france, 70 percent of energy here is generated from nuclear power. so convinced the president michael and nuclear is a way forward, he financed
4:26 pm
a 1000000000 euro investment. expanding the industry will go home in order to guarantee frances energy independence to ensure our countries electricity supply and to achieve our objectives, in particular carbon neutrality. in 2050. we will, for the 1st time in decades with real launch the construction of nuclear reactors in our country and continued to develop renewable energies on the house. the support from some eastern block nations with slovak is prime minister agreeing that climate and neutrality just call be met without you energy. but australia is furious over the plan, saying it will take the commission to court. if it moves ahead with them, we will examine the present draft carefully and have already commissioned a legal opinion on nuclear power in the taxonomy in these plans are implemented in this way. we will sue because atomic power is dangerous and not a solution in the fight against the climate crisis. meanwhile,
4:27 pm
germany is also coming under pressure over its anti nuclear stand from the czech republic. berlin has just all the clues of half of germany's remaining nuclear power plants as part of a plan to withdraw completely from the technology. prague describes that as being a radical step. our government will have to work patiently and hard look for allies in europe and convince partners. finally, it also has to move forward with the construction of nuclear units and to encourage investment in other reasonable renewable sources. that is the way out of the energy crisis. the alternative is under development and poverty, and nobody wants that. all of this comes as europe is in the midst of an energy crisis, with some expert suggesting that the crunch will last roy the way until 2023. that move by germany in closing nuclear react is also could push up prices even further
4:28 pm
. prices in german neil was twice as high as they could be. there is an energy crisis that the prices of the rising. rising cost means that the industry need more energy and that heating your home becomes expensive. we need cheap, stable energy to petition. run our country a lot focused on the interest of gym and industry in german customers. but that's the holo ideological agenda and date to your logical agenda. the 1st is that day thing. they don't need gas because they want to do everything with the nubile. it's a kind of magic. they believe that they can do that against. as the 2nd audiological agenda and a follower is that there are hard core anti russian. one solution to that crisis could be the approval of the nord stream to pipeline that would supply gas
4:29 pm
directly from russia to germany. however, with tensions high between the e. u. in moscow, the green light for that project is far from certain, leaving the e u. scrambling to find the money to pay increasing energy bills, while members remain bitterly divided over the future of energy policy, jollity, belsky, r. t. paris. and that the weekly from out international thanks for checking in with us this weekend wherever you are around the world for a live recap of the news of the last 7 days calling for you from moscow on kevin blue, blue ah
4:30 pm
ah, ah, a ah with while our officers are facing in increasingly dangerous environments. we are seeing a growing debate about so called warrior cops. the term that i've heard in the militarization of police. this is an admirable vehicle. we acquired the 1033 program. very free program is a government program that funnels military property that is no longer use to local law enforcement with building an army over here. and i can't believe people. i see .
