or does this, i'm show business, i'll see you then. ah, has always turned to the latest round of moscow security tools with the west rushes envoy to washington wounds. the remarks by us officials are an attempt to scatter the negotiations. also this our cut your past due start jumps. if you want to stable this winter. a major british energy company feels the heat for it supplies while fuel costs rocket. i think i've completely lost the floor for my wife when she paid it to me for you did our in house because we're trying to get the cost down. you just thing i what else i said today i will talk talent, quit the b, b c. this time that, that from present,
6:01 am
he's left off to 46 years telling i think you could no longer accept the wake agenda that was affecting the shell. they were very keen that we should have a balance of men, women. this is the case for many, many years. my rule has always been that we should just have people write the program. and y'all have a cheese dream, a defending his australian open title face is a new challenge with authorities weighing out whether to support him after new revelations broke the rules. i misled them over his whereabouts with hello. good afternoon. it's 2 pm here in moscow. you watching international russia native delegations have begun talks in brussels, in an effort to reduce tensions on the continent. it's the 1st time the nato,
6:02 am
russia can. so has convened a more than 2 years. the, well, these are some of that. i just think she's from the meeting that began earlier today, nato secretary general has emphasized the importance of dialogue for european security. however, the block has been reluctant to accept moscow's request. the whole expansion towards russia's board is particularly concerning. ukraine rushes envoy to washington has fallen to the recent remarks by us. officials could actually offer any progress. so let's get more details on this now. and go straight to brussels and speak to our correspondent charlotte davinsky. charlotte. good afternoon. i'm with these talks and i wonder way, what is the look for them? do you think? well, it's difficult to say we saw the delegates meeting this morning shaking hands indicating that this is a very business like meeting between nato and the russia council. as you said,
6:03 am
this is a meeting that hasn't taken place for more than 2 years, and they are now in the nitty gritty of those negotiations. but in terms of optimism, as we've already seen from talked earlier this week in geneva, the what held between russia and us representatives. not really anything concrete coming out to that meeting more. so i and suggesting what the red lines are rather than finding and compromise on a way forward. and in regards to those talks which both sides described as being frank and business. like the suggestion was, there was a little, there wasn't that much optimism following them. we do not see any significant reason for optimism. the only thing that deserves positive assessment is the way the talks were conducted with openness, thoroughness, and directness. but this is not something that can bring satisfaction because what is important is the result, not the process. it was not what you would call
6:04 am
a negotiation. we're not to a point where we're ready to set down texts and begin to go back and forth. and of course, since those talks in geneva, we've also had this bob from the us over russian disinformation. this is an allegation that came directly from the white house press secretary, who turned around and said that with all of these meetings taking place this week, these high level negotiations on the future of relations between the western russia . there is likely to be this russian dis information, and that the u. s. was ready for it. that of course provoked furious responses for moscow. we are preparing ourselves for the facility unlikelihood. no one should be surprised. i should say, if russia spread just information about commitments that have not been made, or if it goes even further and instigates something as a priest text for further the stabilizing activity. and so we would continue to urge everyone not to fall for any attempts to pushed in this information out there
6:05 am
. after the numerous statements made by the white house press secretary, it is sincerely regretable that the american leadership is represented by people who do not know the subject well enough, but it's telling them we advise you colleagues. not just to get to use critical thinking and carefully double check, but at least the most important story, sir, is not to show your incompetence to the whole world. and to add to the tensions already surrounding all of these meetings this week, we have this threat of possible sanctions against russia. also now coming from the secretary general of nato. again, stilton, who said that if these talks fail, the need to is ready to have crippling sanctions, financial sanctions against russia. in addition to that, we've had a new line coming out from the united states. this is from the deputy, the under secretary of state for political affairs, who says that the us is already discussing how to hold even further the nude stream
6:06 am
to gas pipeline project from russia to germany even longer. of course, that pipeline is still waiting for the green light to be able to pump that gas directly from russia to germany. and suggesting that the u. s. is reggie and open to half negotiations with finland and sweden about possible nato membership that has a significant ramification. for these talks, given that both countries so many decades now pursued a policy of neutrality that listen to what she said. what we are doing now is working with the germans, working with the e. u to slow, they are consideration of implementation of the pipeline yet suspended, if russia aggressors against ukraine. i'm the coolest. there is all the media interest in what's going on at the moment. and perhaps headlines suggesting that russia is, you know, at the moment sort of swaggering around with the gun over the head to the
6:07 am
negotiations and also telling president putin how he should be dealt with. doesn't exactly aid the issue. and charlotte, russia, as we know, has made some pretty serious demands, hasn't it? do you think that it is plausible that nato could actually agree to stop its expansion forwards, rushing orders? well, they do has said quite clearly that it is benito and nato allies to make any decision over what countries can join the alliance in the future. washington is held that line to saying that it is not for russia to have a retail on countries if they want to really join the alliance. but we know that this is a red line for russia. that proposal suggesting it was a red line, was an app back in december, and that was again something we had reiterated that the talks in geneva earlier this week. but the idea that nato could expand even further into former soviet
6:08 am
union countries is something that russia cannot accept because of the impact that would have on the country security. and there was this request, this demand viet, again, from the deputy russian foreign minister, that they will, i in class guarantees that countries like ukraine in georgia will never ascend to the nato alliance. we end up with lose dog half promises, misinterpretation of what happened, that different forms of negotiations behind closed doors. we do not trust the other side. so to say we need iron clad waterproof bulletproof legally binding guarantees not assurances, not safeguards guarantees. now, of course, are also these allegations that the united states and nato allies have been banned
6:09 am
the around for several months now. the russia is building up its troops on the ukrainian buddha, and it is ready to invade. as soon as the snow melts, that is something that moscow has repeatedly denied. and in fact, moscow who said that it is key ev, that is acting as an aggressor at the moment as saying that he's failing to abide by treaties which are governing the ongoing conflict in the don't bass region in the east of the country. meanwhile, we've also heard some lines coming out from ukraine as well over their ease. the fact that they noted these discussions and cells today, one ukrainian m p, who is part of presidency landscape governing coalition, said that once again, this is talking about ukraine without ukraine. and that might be a point that is brought up today, given that the u. s. is said over and over that the situation in ukraine cannot be discussed without ukraine being that so delegates will be discussing lots of
6:10 am
difficult topics in the next few hours. but the sense is that there is unlikely to be any significant if indeed any movement forward from these talks. today, we're expecting a press conference from both sides later on wednesday, and we will be across that here on the international show. ok, thanks for charlotte. charlotte davinsky, they're in brussels where that nato russia storm it is taking place to that. now peace activists, me mom has told us that the u. s. has broken his promises to moscow again and again . coach law has been promised that the major wouldn't take offense eastwards and not putting in military installations closer to the rest of the border. that if you know from the 1997 on, there have been several waste of expansion towards the east, including farm of union rhetoric slight developing states. and now that's why,
6:11 am
for russia, it's important to have guarantees not to expend further. as you know, in 2008th grade and georgia has been promised that they become a member of nato. and this is an acceptable, this is the red line, i think, for most of our proposals made by russia law december to have been presenting the guardian has been coal aggressive. if you look up for both i think they were considering and no or many that just now a bit of advice for the british house, whole struggling to have their homes this winter. a major energy firm is told customers to cuddle their pets. and d star jumps to stay warm bills are expected to double the share, while incomes will face a big squeeze shadow which dashti has more on the advice that scott customers fired up. are you weighing up, eating or heating?
6:12 am
is still the predictor to sort of 2000 pounds a year will threaten no more as one of britain's biggest energy suppliers has come up with no one idea. the 10 ways to save on heating cost, not only laira, but get the hot rate going with some storage on. and if that doesn't work, how about a cozy little cutter with a cat? okay, i don't have a cat, but i do have this guy. another central suggestion is to leave the oven door open after cooking, the capital of your kids love and eat a hearty bowl of porridge. and of course, make sure you have a decent pair of sulks or slippers. apparently, all these are simple cost effective ways to keep warm this winter, but the company can't be serious, can it? i think they've completely lost the floor on that one. i have to say, don't close with. we're not stupid. i are, we are near today trying not to i hating on really freezing in our in house because
6:13 am
we're trying to get the cost down. you just think my, what else was today if that's real advice and you know, i'd be slightly and salary by are either hopefully by now why with the event that i need to study my energy done for an extra jumper on seminar. so yeah, i want to be in solid bio for any other company, but i wouldn't listen. so i would say, for example, that would suit me. the advice and the customers comes as many households are extremely worried about rising energy costs. and despite the company apologizing for the l, judge, suggestions, politicians have criticize the cold, haunted approach. it is lawful and insulting. but then with this government lack of an energy strategy, you almost expected those comments will be right by people who have to choose between eating and heating it's. that's the state of the country. we're now and i find it quite depressing. being told to put on a instead of turning on your heating, if you can't afford it, at
6:14 am
a time of such difficulty for so many families is plainly offensive. 2022 has already been given the total year of the squeeze of the one since the 2008 financial crash this year. wages will only grow one at the same time. 7 bill jumped by 50 percent around 2000 pounds when britain's new energy price cap is sent in april. this means in real time, people actually get a pay cut. and the situation is for the cost of living catastrophe. i think the health and information we had the way to use that you could possibly have in business with support from the government and be forced to close our doors. we're only we're trying to close our way back. so we're in a hotel and everything else. we use quite a lot of electricity and it has to fi and i am terrified of the impact of businesses in the country. not just me. i. when i mean small business is
6:15 am
struggling. i just have to stop. we pay the bounce back government and supposedly gave us, but we've got to pay them back to order something. and i'm not going to do that. it's time to money and we were in debt anyway from the lock that i now they energy cost to sort of both electricity and gas. louis, sorry, i don't know how we supposed to pay them because we have no income and she's not alone. in fact, one and 3 people are worried that bills will become totally on affordable this year . and i'm thinking the government to for the bill. labor also piling on the pressure for the government to ditch tax hikes and scrap v a t on feel altogether. conservative ministers council, the 0 carbon homes program. they bond on show when development, they launch the eco selection program, the tornado. within one year, they were, you see, you case gas storage capacity. and one particularly silly moment the current
6:16 am
foreign secretary claim solar panels were risks to domestic reproduction. all of these decisions have made this country more dependent on volatile wholesale energy prices than we otherwise would have been right now. we notice means as extremely situate, extremely difficult situation to british household. we also risk making archways, the british industry and competitive a talk, a combination of spiking prices, tax hikes looming energy, big bills, and the government's a power reluctance to address these issues. may actually see ridiculous ideas like cuddling pats help people overcome this, and the upcoming winters become a reality. shot. edwards dashti, arte london now the bbc's facing a fresh wave of concerns about pushing woke issues. one of the british broadcast is longest serving present is pull the plug on his network radio show last month off to 46 years, blaming,
6:17 am
and obsession with diversity. nigel reach told us he was too frustrated to remain with the bbc's woke agenda. it was a difficult series to record because of what one could call b. b. c woke the bbc suggested, or phone quietly insist that we include certain types of guest. obviously we, they were very came that we should have a balance of men and women and this has been the case for many, many guess better reasons. one has had be under pressure or want to be persuaded that one must house persons of color or ethnic minorities. and this particular set is i was also told that we must have disabled people taking part. and so i went along with and i went along with the persons of
6:18 am
color, etc. and i think they were all extremely good people to have all the programs that i have. so react against this prescription that you love. but we should have certain types of people on the program. my rule has always been that we should just have people who are right for the program who are trying to do it. and never mind that color is all that religion is having. so that is the basis of there have also been whistleblower allegations about a climate of fear at the b, b. c over reporting on race and transgender issues with an inside is saying the broadcast was employing overwhelming censorship. bbc officials, so have repeatedly denied catering to political bias within the organization, but he's failed to stop some of its top faces from leaving. one of them is political broadcasting, veteran and remark, who chris after 21 years saying he want to be free to speak his views,
6:19 am
while robin akin. another highly experienced journalist said he was fed up with the company's quote, institutionalized left isn't your race again, claims the broadcaster is putting pressure on reporters in various face, certainly in other areas, and this is in the entertainment area. so i'm, i'm, i was working and, but obviously in this political field, i'm sure that these precious do come up all the time as to the people. that money's going to interview and the things that are reporters and correspond since own concerns. so i think that is going on and there is also, so i mean the media, i would have changed out or exists since or since i stuff back in the 960. i mean, the tickler producer i was working for the last series that was 50 years younger than me and she was very much into want to michael right on causes. i'm so
6:20 am
on. so inevitably she pushed those and i, i resisted that to a point. but anyway, it's all over now. ah, tennessee for star never joke of h is admitted breaking isolation rules after catching caveat. last month, the world none. the one author confirmed errors in the travel form he used to enter astray. the grand slam, which does start next week, but he says it wasn't his fault. my agent sincerely apologizes for the administrative mistake in ticking the incorrect box about my previous travel before coming to australia. this was a human error and certainly not deliberate. a new twist in this story, of course, has been developing since he was detained at the border on wednesday. we'll get to that in a little minute. the latest developments in the story is that he has had admitted to misleading the australian authorities. however, he says it was an administrative era human error on the part of his age and he
6:21 am
ticked the wrong box on the paperwork. now that box refers to his travel in the 14 days prior to entering australia, we can only guess the said he hadn't traveled anywhere, but in fact, that wasn't true. he'd been in his native serbia. he travelled to spain air to train, and he had also then gone to australia via de bye, of course, that travel to australia probably wouldn't count that. the main thing is that he travel to spain at the end of december. now that's important because the argument now isn't going on about the medical exemption, the medical exemption of course, or was because john, which isn't, are vaccinated against co, with 19 australia of course has some of the strips of st rules in the world as regards code regulations they said when he entered the country on wednesday, they didn't meet those requirements for medical exemption. he was detained in melbourne, and afterwards on monday, a judge ruled that the roster alien government had unfairly revoked that visa and ordered it to be reinstated. that meant he could remain in australia when he was
6:22 am
free to leave the detention center. but now we have another story about his p. c. r t says he said that he, when he in serbia, he attended a basketball match. on december, the 14th, there was a lot of reports about people testing positive for covert on december. the 16th he said he had taken a test and, and the day after there was an event with children and their, the p. c. r test didn't come back in time or for him to have known the results of that it did come back positive, but at anti gen test that he took before then came back negative. so he thought that he was ok to go to events. then there was a, another interview that he attended. he had admitted that he was wrong in doing so, but he did want to let the journalist down the medical exemption. of course that was the original follow. he caught spots a huge diplomatic fall out. there were people protesting in the streets of melbourne outside his lawyers officer. show a support for this national icon in sybil. we can take a look at some of the process that happened in melbourne on monday. ah
6:23 am
course not only a serbia hero but all across the world in tennis. also there was the words of alex wark, the immigration minister, who said that he retains the right to cancel jock of his visa at any point and that's regardless of any ruling. so the ruling on money would not count if alex walk decides to excite those powers. as it stands, joclett is still training in the hope of defending his title at the australian open of breaking that grand slam record book is very much in the balance of the moment that one year after the capitol hill riots, the u. s. justice department, her set up her new domestic terrorism unit and it will combat threats they claim have doubled. in the past 2 years,
6:24 am
i decided to establish that domestic terrorism unit to augment our existing approach. this group of dedicated attorneys will focus on the domestic terrorism threat, hoping to ensure that these cases are have a properly and effectively coordinated across the department of justice and across the country. that was testimony we heard from mark olson, who is a deputy attorney general with the national security division of the u. s. department of justice announcing the formation of this new entity that will deal with the issue of domestic terrorism. now this comes as part of the senate judiciary committees hearings about january 6th. that was the capital riot, and the aftermath of that we see an investigation. now, in the testimony we heard today, we heard department of justice officials talking about how white supremacist anti government activists and others are the primary domestic terrorism threat. and in some of their language, they even compare them to his lama stream it. here's what we heard from my
6:25 am
perspective of spending a lot of time focused on the radicalization of international terrorists and islamic extremists and extremes of all stripes. this group shares many of the same characteristics. people who feel like their way of life is under attack. many of those people i would, i would guess last year had carried those exact beliefs and thoughts as they marched their way to break into the nation's capital. now, republicans described all of this as a, with chance setting the stage for a clamp down on the sand in the united states, serving a political agenda that will only further divide the country and increase division and polarization and u. s. society here some of the republican reactions. unfortunately, one year later, the majority party seems no closer to answering the central question of how the capital was left so unprepared and what must be done to ensure it never had since
6:26 am
again. instead, they are using it as a partisan political weapon to further divide our country. now, republicans have also raised concerns about why this single riot that happened on capitol hill is getting far more attention than the year of rioting that preceded it. and the protests around the country, almost every major city had rioting, property, destruction going on in the lead up to the 2020 election in the aftermath of the killing of george floyd. and such, there's a, there's a feeling that democrats are using january 6th to serve political ends and that these ongoing hearings and investigations and potentially this new unit being formed to investigate domestic terrorism, serves a political and for the democratic party. but we did hear this announcement of the department of justice has said that this formation of this new unit is taking place . so that's what we've heard from testimony and capitol hill, about the u. s. department of justice and their ongoing efforts against domestic terrorism,
6:27 am
terrorism. the domestic terrorism prison has been the main way that this administration has tried to frame. what's happened on january 5th, in this case, the true enemies of the administration on the far right. and those are the intended targets of this move. there's a real sense on the political rights that they are being treated unfairly, that, that they're being targeted that the government isn't just going after tara, but that the government is acting as the police. and that's simply hold a popular political property on both on the political right. especially if you are, trump, supporters is, is dangerous actually watching naughty international. thanks the company this afternoon, just approaching half past 2 here in moscow, back again in about 30 minutes. ah,
6:28 am
no one else shows the wrong one. i'll just don't hold any world to shape out. disdain becomes the african and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground. oh is your media a reflection of reality? in a world transformed what will make you feel safe, isolation for community. are you going the right way or are you being
6:29 am
that somewhere? direct? what is true? what is great? in the world corrupted, you need to descend a join us in the depths or remain in the shallows. yes, me oh, look receive that will i lisa typical. there is only 9 but already a university. students that away and rational. a new month appointment. let's see. yep. you got the there's doors to deal with the human. come come no recalls with a brochure. and of course with them. well,
6:30 am
you're special, but i was the, yeah. my i was thinking what the plan was to get on the she was in your mind shifting this. i'm doing it for doug that he was not chicago. i knew it with with his teacher was reason is balise. we'll coordinate. 6 july, an annual festival in st. petersburg dedicated to dust i ascii. ah, the great writer thinker and psychologist, people turned to his work to understand russia and russians, and perhaps even themselves. take what they sing on, maria. she put basic mathematic vehicle in while you need it to talk with.
