ah, nato has been trying to wind the clock box a cold war time that's from a russian press briefing after high stakes. often, brothels, nato understands the principle at the end of visibility of security selectively. if nato applies a policy of containment against russia, moscow will have to take a calendar with while nato rejects russia's red line of not letting ukraine join the military alliance, saying the blocks expansion spreads freedom and democracy. also to come. britain's prime minister apologizes for attending a low down drinks party in the back garden at noon, but then back in 2020. it was the 1st time he admitted his presence. but now he says he thought it was a work event. with

you're watching archie international. my name is peter scott taking over the home from kevin know and welcome to the program. russia and nato have been embroiled in frank, an in depth talks in brussels. they've been held in an effort to reduce tensions on the continents. and it's the 1st time the nato, russia council is convened in more than 2 years. his ortiz shall depend sky with more difficult talks in geneva, and brussels. and they are not over yet with the 3rd round and vienna on thursday. this time with you, organization, for security and cooperation in europe. what we heard from brussels is that both nato and russia are clear, the remaining deep divisions between them and further deterioration will be unpredictable and have serious consequences. now one of the big issues, if not the biggest is ukraine and whether or not they could become a member of nato. russia says this can never ever happen. it is

a red line due to the impact that would have on russian security. so what will happen if talks with ukraine and ga, continue from nato. nato understands the principle of the indivisibility of security selectively. in the eyes of nato, it exists only for members of the alliance, and nato won't take into account the security concerns of others. we firmly believe that the principle at the end of visibility of security should take into account the interests of all, and that attempts to build security against russia without russia's participation are doomed to failure. if nato applies a policy of containment against russia, moscow will have to take a counter macbook with you, or throws russia also called for nato to stop sending training instructors and military equipment to ukraine as part of its demand. so de escalation, just to give you an idea, the u. s, which is a natal member, has applied within $2500000000.00 with security assistance to ukraine since 2014.

and this year native force is a duty take part in many military drills in ukraine. for russia, this is a serious issue, and the continued expansion of nato doesn't. it says solve any issues. for sure in you, nothing. your nato expansion doesn't solve any problems of security. it moves division lines, work for doesn't remove back. so we accept policies of the countries that have decided not to engage in the alliance. and they know that we support policies of non alignment, and this is in both our interests to be pursued further. today we once again discussed in detail nato's ease for expansion. ask you, i've got a very nato says it's open door policy allowing countries to decide if they want to be members will not be closed. eyes on their side, reaffirmed naples open door policy and the right for each nation to choose its own security arrangements. so these are the other princesses, nathan lodgement is aggressive. absolutely not true. and nathan launch month has

been a cornerstone for the spread of democracy and freedom across europe. threats over sanctions. we're also being reiterated by nato and the u. s. if russia invades ukraine, something it continues to deny that it is about to do. and while discussions were underway, here in europe, a detailed plan of those possible sanctions was being unveiled by democrats in the u. s. senate. all available and appropriate measures would be considered to insure the north stream to pipeline from russia to germany didn't become operational. it said, while companies that russia has that offer secure messaging services would be targeted . both a said to be measures to target severe costs. so, russia's economy, some said it was a wind to get russia and nato together, the negotiating table, but it seems both sides leave these talks, having made no further significant strides towards unity. charlotte even ski

r t in brussels. will luke re bay who's an independent journalist, shared his views on the talks, and particularly concerns over ukraine, becoming a nato member. press conference on salt and back to 60 channel if nato was very sure for 5 minutes didn't just a few questions. she said one interesting things that he had one interesting thing that he had already mentioned before. no ukraine is only a partner of the alliance now. and it is not covered by article 5 of the treaty, which is the dangerous old. any member is defended in case of all the others, and it would be crazy for nato to get ukraine on board and within the alliance. believe me, several countries and not the small ones, don't want you grain. of course, there is an image that needs to be projected all humanity, but it's not the case. and people realized in europe that it is very dangerous to

have ukraine. and if only because of some of the all pets in the west of the country that hey russia and i could do anything to start all over in the u. k. britain's prime minister boys johnston has admitted that he did attend the downing street party in the back garden at the heights of the 1st national cove it lot down in 2020. he apologized to britons, who at the time weren't even allowed to go. and each of those homes while arguing, he thought it was a work event. i appreciate the, the point that he's making about the event that i attended. i want to, i want to repeat that. i think it was a, a work event is politicians form perhaps both sides of the aisle or concern they'd like to see not just an apology from bars, johnson but resignation as well. because this seems to be a common theme. now of course, because our minds back to roughly the spring of 2022 years ago now we had the whole

country. in fact, most of the world locked down almost completely and we've seen in the u. k. again and again. revelations of politicians, particularly conservative politicians, those close downing street having christmas parties, for example, while people couldn't see that dying relatives, or in this case a garden party in may of 2020. when many people were, for example, not seeing relatives being stuck away from loved ones who are suffering and other restrictions on their lives. now the image that the country has is that those are the top, the elite don't seem to think rules apply to them. and for many politicians, the only way to regain public trust is if the man responsible for all of this, the prime minister parish johnson finally resigns. his defense, his defense, that he didn't realize he was at a party ha ha is so ridiculous that is

actually offensive to the press with the whole country was locked down. he was posting boozy party in town express the see now going to to to decent thing and resign yet mister speaker. it's i talk to the right honorable gentleman to choose how he conducts himself. yes, me. now what we've also see in our repeated examples of boris johnson previously pleading his innocence and saying that actually nothing had taken place . that was against the many rules that once again, the rest of the country through a number of messaging techniques and the some psychologists have put it. and other medical professionals matter formation, consistently putting out messaging to the public to stick to the rules. the government, apparently seeing at the time anyway, many figures within the government that they themselves didn't have to stick to the

rules. but in any case, we've seen nothing but denials. up until this point they viewed was a party, said you, it was against the rules. they knew they couldn't admit it, and they thought it was funny. the prime minister has been called right handy. why does the envy investigation right now, but just admitting it? i been repeatedly assured, oh good isn't the 1st time of the 1st revelation? of course, a big political fall out from the revelations of political parties taking place a christmas party taking place at downing street last christmas. and that led to the resignation of allegra struts. and she was a spokeswoman who was caught on camera pretty much laughing about the situation she handed in her resignation. perhaps a political sacrifice, abortions who could keep his job. but as more and more of these revelations come out, there are few or fewer people who be willing to throw themselves on their swords. and eventually the question will be will prime minister himself finally step down?

earlier we spoke to norman baker, a former home office minister, who believes that johnston as well lost all credibility to color, were beating his pathetic to minnesota, where it meeting it was clearly a social event. so you know, he just, he just hang on a for grim life and hoping something will turn up at him. his time is over at easter ged to go now was your sense of decency about him? the public i, there are, are furious that this, this cut through every understand what happened here. this is not in our, on our cane, westminster issue. this is something which affects all the people, all the people who have been prevented from seeing their loved ones from dying. preventive and go to funerals. not able to get married, not able to, to see relatives in care, homes, me while the prime minister is having a party of the 100 people and in the backyard of downing street, people understand this issue very well and they are furious. it's

a grudging apology and he's only apologized because he'd been caught. red handed up . so now he's been saying everything was hunky dory. he was falling. all the rules going to worry about and the prime minister's lost all credibility. he's lost to right to be prime minister. he's to resign, and he threw an immense damage to reputation as country or other men's damage to his own party. and i think his own party will take action in due course. and while boys johnson's feeling the heats, there's a bit of advice for british household stories, warned their homes this winter. a major energy firm has told customers to cuddle their pets and do star jumps to stay warm bills are expected to double this year, while incomes will face a big squeeze. shoddy edwards dashti has more on the advice this got customers all fired up. are you weighing up eating all heating is still the predicted 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 to any laira,

but get the hot rate going with some star jumps. and if that doesn't work, how that 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. be careful of your kids love and eat a hearty bowl of porridge. and of course, make sure you have a decent pair of silks 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 i've completely lost the floss on that one. i have to say a people say we're not stupid. i are we, we are literally trying not that i eating on really freezing in our, in house because we're trying to get the cost down. you just think my, what else besides today, if that's real advice and the i'd be slightly and salary by our i'm and i believe i

know why with the event that i need to start suddenly my energy done. i put an extra jumper on seminar, so yeah, i wouldn't want to be insulted by any other company, but that doesn't say i wouldn't listen. so i would say got fixed on contract. that would certainly the advice and to customers comes as many households are extremely worried about rising energy costs. and despite the company apologizing for the l judge, suggestion politicians have criticized the cold haunted approach. it is laughable and insulting. but then with this government's 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 the time of such difficulty for so many families is plainly offensive. 2022 has already been given the total year of the squeeze of a one since a 2008 financial crash this year. wages will barely quote one of the same time bill

just by 50 percent around 2000 pounds. when britain's new energy price cap is 2nd 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 hosting to the nation, we have the way to use that you could possibly have been business local support from the government. so we've been forced to close our doors. we're only we're trying to close our weight back. so we're in a hotel and everything else. we use quite a lot of electricity and it's hard to find. i am terrified of the impact of businesses in the country. not just me. when i mean small business is struggling, i just have to stop, repay, bounce back, let the government and supposedly gave us,

but we've got to pay them back. so all of a sudden, 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 the solar and both electricity and gas, so 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 the bill. labor also piling on the pressure for the government to ditch tax hikes and scrap v a t on feel altogether. consent to ministers council, the 0 carbon homes program they found on show when development they lost the co installation program. they tore it up within one year, they were, you see, you case gas storage capacity. and it won't particularly silly moment the current foreign secretary claim solar panels were risk to domestic food production or all of these decisions that have made this country more dependent on volatile wholesale

energy prices than we otherwise would have been right now we know this means as an extremely situate, extremely difficult situation to british household, but also risks making large ways the british industry and competitive a talk, a combination of spiking prices, tax hikes, the looming energy big build on the government's a parent reluctance to address these issues. may actually see ridiculous ideas like cuddling pats help people overcome this, and the upcoming winter has become a reality shock. edwards dashti, r t london still to comb here and oxy international data protection is back in the headlines in europe. as the blogs police agencies told to deleted trove personal data more not, not to this short break. ah

ah ah price fixing is the problem. if you want a free market, you've got all lead the market be free, you can have half of the market free. and then half the market fixed, the you end up with the problem that we had today joined me every thursday on the alex simon,

sure. but i'll be speaking to guess in the world of politics, sport, business, i'm show business. i'll see you then. ah, welcome back to the program. now one of america's most prominent newspapers has been criticized for running a controversial article that claimed sexual attraction to children is determined in the womb usa to day, subsequently, a raised at sweet thread on the story amid major public outrage. with more knots, his art is caleb, more pin usa today has created a huge amount of outrage for an article they published regarding scientific research into pedo files. they argue that a essentially a being a pedophile is not synonymous with child abuse. and that the way the u. s. public understands the issue is not correct. this is what was said in the very

controversial usa to day peace. the evidence suggests it is inborn. not all people who sexually abuse children are p to files. some p to files never abuse children, extra se, and some people who sexually abuse children to know sexually prefer them. we use them as a surrogate for an adult partner. now the twitter thread that was generated by this article from usa to day got so intense that it was actually delete it. but here's some of what was said about this article before you say today, deleted this tweet, and the accompanying fred after getting ready owed into oblivion. they are hardly the 1st to attempt to normalize pitifully, and won't be the last. why is usa to day trying to gaslight the general public into believing pedophilia is normal and pedophile are dangerous. usa today decides to use mental gymnastics to defend pedophilia didn't go well. now this is not the 1st time such claims have been made. there was a university professor who got similar attention and sparked similar mass outrage

among the public when such statements were made several months ago. i, at this point sir, many are observing that over the years, public opinion in the united states is certainly shifted when it comes to issues about sexuality and lifestyles, et cetera. but this is one issue where it looks like much of the public is not willing to budge. the use police agency euro pole has been ordered to delete a vast store of personal data that is accused of keeping on lawfully. it comes after decision by the blocks dates of protection agency and privacy advocates of already likened to europe halls activities to must surveillance and compared is can this time dates a harvest in america's national security agency which was exposed by whistleblower? edward snowden, europe. all hord reportedly runs to the equivalent of hundreds of billions of pages of printed text. it stores data on at least a quarter of a 1000000 current or former terror and serious crime suspects. but it also has

personal details of people with no established links to commonality in now has to erase certain information held for more than 6 months. the day the data has been collected from criminal investigations carried out by national police authorities in e u. countries for europe or denies it has abused this mandate and says decision will hinder its data processing capabilities to support law enforcement. the dps decision will impact on euro pose ability to analyze complex and large datasets at the request of a you law enforcement. a cybersecurity expert we heard from says the decision won't make much difference as there's already an abundance of personal data available on media platforms. he says, speaking, i believe that it is impossible to consider our need a copy to the private, heavier relation that we do on line is check in the for the, for the purposes that the collection is essential to provide the better said he send the true to the user experience box,

we can nothing your the side effects for these reason, the rule over privacy, which dogs and the privacy regulations of facia. i believe that the media blackmore platforms are collected too much data. and we, we, we have seen many times in the abuse of such data. many we the b, b, c is facing a fresh wave of concerns about pushing woke issues. one of the bridge is broadcast as longest serving presents as pull the plug on his network radio show after 46 years play mean i'm session with diversity. nigel read photos. 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. work. the bbc suggested or quietly insist that we include certain types of guests,

obviously. and they were very keen that we should have a balance of men and women than this has been case for many, many years. but of course, reasons. one has had been under pressure or one has been persuaded that one must house persons of color or ethnic minorities. and this particular series 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 color, etc. and i think they were all extremely good able to have on the program that i have. ready so that reacted against this prescription. if you that 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. never mind what

their color is or that religion is or what have you. so that is the basis there have also been whistleblower allegations about the climate of fear, the b b. c over reporting on race and transgender issues. with an inside a thing, the broadcaster was employing overwhelming censorship. bbc officials though have repeatedly denied catering to political bias within the organization. but his fail to stop some of his top faces from leaving. one of them is political broadcasting. veteran andrew mar. you quit after 21 year thing he wanted to be free to speak his views, while robin 8th kin, under the highly experienced journalists, said he was fed up with the company's quote, institutionalized left ism nigel reads, claims the broadcast that is putting pressure on reports in various 5th certainly in other areas and this is in. ready 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 on all the time as to the people. that money is going to interview and the things that reporters and correspondence and so on can say, so i think that is going on and there is also, so i mean the media have changed out or exists since, since i've stuff back in the 960 i mean, the tickler producer i was working for the last it was 50 years younger than me and she was very much into watch michael right on causes. i'm so. so inevitably, she pushed those and i, i resisted that to a point that so anyway, it's all over. now. coming up next odds, he documentary reveals the secrets of one of the most famous russian writes, as fyodor dostoevsky, whose books 140 years since his death is still in sync with reality and continued

to resonates around the globe. but for now, you bungle for the date with the latest and that's my main pizza. scott, and i'll be back again with another bulletin in around 30 minutes. ah ah. new emotions, medieval institutions, montana, godlike technology. and the combination of these 3 very you could say, historically distinct seeks fixes within our psycho physical makeup. i have rendered us pretty dangerous to ourselves to the, to the planet. while our officers are facing an increasingly

dangerous environment, 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 app vehicle we acquired through the 1033 program and very free program with the government program that funnels military property that is no longer used to local law enforcement with building an army over here. and i can't believe people. i see those thing that agency elder care can think of terry for me it began a feeling that ahead you have to deal with joe higher practice who you putting in uniform cover beds is a powerful thing is sometimes is like money in play tricks and people mind they think they've done the bad knows what was out the door very bad. john. good news. yep. job security is world desperately needs with

when else seemed wrong when all through, just don't move any new role, that is yes. to shave out disdain. because the answer to an engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground. yes ma'am. oh oh, risky, but will you, alyssa? typical there's only 9, but already a university student that away on slash a teams and you must appointment. let's see. yep. you got the last, there's doors to deal with or get it. and i and number 2 able to go with

the he may come can no recalls. he really shows control such programs. now brochure, nebraska porcelain williams. i was the, yeah. my i just said the best way to get what the plan was to get up to him was in your mind getting this, i'm limited with that he was as much color as your newest america with of soon lose with when you more to judge the blanca you produce teacher was also reason this one is a good you like an annual festival. this petersburg dedicated to dust. i asked a great writer, think around psychologist people and turned to his work to understand russia and russians and perhaps even themselves see what they seen on what are you sick with changing a reader,

transforming them as they read that dust i ask is unique ability to stay off ski wants to tell us, you can better yourself. he makes you face your true self with beyond conventions, rules of schemes, beyond the boundaries and time. dostoevsky is a global brand whose classics, everyone knows. i'm never out of dial. oh hm. narrow street. the bustling piazza madura countless arches. fyodor, a dust i ascii once walked here in the heart of bologna. he visited italy 3 times when fleeing from lenders and found inspiration. it was in italy that he finished his novel. the idiot. no more. she put.
