ah ah, top headline right here, went off international tennis superstar novak geography has been deported from australia report uphold the decision to counsel his visa. meaning he will miss the australian open, which starts in less than 24 hours or 2 in the stories that shape the weak, your naughty international, high stakes top. so for ukraine, between russia and nato have wrapped up moscow accusing the advantage of trying to wine back to the times of the cold war. nato understands the principle of the indivisibility of security selectively. if nato applies a policy of containment against russia, moscow will have to take a calendar with also in the program, cuddle your pets, and do star job. if you want to stay warm this winter. a major british energy

company feels the heat for its advice. while energy prices continue to go through the roof, i think i've completely lost the floss on that one. i have to say when i was she paid for it to be crazy now, because we're trying to get the cost down. you just think that what else i said today with no shortage of big headlines this week, aeronautics international. let's highlight some of them right off the today's top story. so tennis star know back dr. bitch has now been deported from australia. it's after a court upheld a decision to revoke his visa. he will now miss out on participating in the australian open. the statement, the australian prime minister said the protection of the countries borders was paramount. i welcome the decision to keep our borders strong and keep australian safe. strong borders are fundamental to the australian way of life. as is the rule

of law. our government has always understood this and has been prepared to take the decisions and actions necessary to protect the integrity of our borders. daniel is that it his out is so if a joke of it's for this australian open for sure, even if he was so peel, which is expressed or intent not to do already, it would be too late for the thought to be open, which as you said, takes price in less than 24 hours. now the decision, although 3 judges only a federal court of appeal, was unanimous. the reasons for their decision, they will give a little later. but they have upheld the decision by the australia immigration minister alex walked to revoke. at joker, which is visa based as he argued on the health and well safety. all the australia and the safety security of the countries borders saying that his presence in the country would stoke in his appeal. and he vac sentiment, and even according to him incite civil unrest. the australian providence, the scott morrison, they're speaking very clearly mentioning the safety of board of the security board

us quite what this has to do with borders. a lot of critics cannot see, including the serbian president who was very scathing about the treatment, a joke in which received australia earlier today. it was very easy for us rental for it is to so from the very beginning, the okay. only vaccinated on inoculated people could enter australian territory, but it didn't say so. they were saying completely different story, including this medical exemptions i think was for william australian authorities can relate to themselves with this kind of procedures are pressing against a mold, your courage. what i know is that novak is always the 1st one to stand for the players, but none of us stood for him. be strong. rules are rules, they say then lose their own court, then find a way to cancel his visa anyway. so what rules were they referring to in the 1st

place? oh, i forgot election soon. stay strong. we can make 3 takeaways re from this court's decision. 3 peas if you like, politics, principal, and president. it's hard to argue this is anything to do with a, a rational concern of safety. joke about susan's being perceived as somebody who's infectious is going to infect people oppose a public health risk. he had, he actually turned out to be the winner if he were to attack the australian open and actually winner as number one, he's or he'll get $3100000.00 us dollars. so he's missing out on a huge potential pay day here. tell us more about the reactions to this will learn the paid edge of it. she's serv. his dreams of winning a 10th australian. the open 21st grand slam our. our shattered reaction though now we have to give credit has been very polarizing. we've had people saying both, okay, people have made sacrifices australia has had on the lowest cobra death rates. partly because of their very strong rules. their stringent looked on rules, border policies, rules the rules are, should be no exceptions. here are the people who have said, okay,

this really about following the rules. he has followed the rules for entry. his filled in his forms, his provided evidence of his medical exemption is code infection. is this really about that, or is it personal? and certainly people on the street serv certainly following the 1st court decision . we're very passionate and very angry about the way he's been treated. ah no document himself has said he's extremely disappointed with this decision, but he is going to respect the court's decision. is going to comply a corporate with the court suddenly, authorities and, and return home on, of course, back at home, joker, which as we heard there from the sub in the president has in views. i'm not exactly perhaps as a martyr of sorts, but certainly the perception has been that he has been mistreated. he has been targeting single doubt as

a scapegoat. so make an example of that spin the sentiment in his home country of serbia. yvonne, i am revolted and angry because i did not expect they would treat the world's best tennis player like this. he did not deserve. this is angela. norma would novick is going through is the frustration of our entire nation disorder. if they had said from the beginning that only vaccinated people can participate, it would be all right, look, but at one point they tell him one thing, another time, something else. this is pure politics. the issue here are the principles we live for, at least as europeans freedom, fraternity equality or, you know, i think really the somethings up we can agree on quote why andy murray. he's a step in and said really from the situation and there are no witness. this is bad of everybody. this is bad for joke rich, this is bad for tennis, for the viewers had paid good money to see what are the world's top sports dos play and who of course, already returning their tickets. we're seeing mass requests. the refunds are based on what's happened here, and of course bad for the australian government with the opposition saying that

they've dilly dally. they've created confusion and controversy with the rules on the ship resign really? there are no one is in there, sandra, jock, which of course heading home are very disappointed short time ago. i spoke with professor of sociology and a former sports and media lecturer. ellis cashmore who believes australian government has made joke of which a martyr by supporting him. this is a manifestly political decision as the world knows not morrison has the federal elections looming in about 4 months time. and he's been awarded this morning with a response from the australian public, which seems to endorse the decision of the australian government to deport jock of it. what a thing that the australian government has missed that it said before, alex hall, the immigration minister said i don't want to make a martyr out of our hero as a joke of it by allowing him to play. but. busy by deporting him,

by excluding him from the to the tournament, he's done exactly that because anti vax is around the world. now, we'll be looking at jocko village and saying this guy's been persecuted for no other reason than the fact that he is exercising his individual liberty, his choice not to be vaccinated. and of course, he will become a martyr. after the 1st victory, in this case, i went joker, which was released from the detention center a we spoke to his dad and uncle who both agree that the stars should be allowed to compete in the australian open. i can say in my name, i personally mean isolated, you know, as a, this is a whole him, you know, the other side, as you know, he has the corona in december, you know, and the, this is not a medical reason to get the luck sign before that if she has the full time but all, and he has a real,

really heavy and we are so sorry. we like to australian people. but the southern government did very wrong things to know. number one, in the, in the, in the dentist, one of the best force men ever, you know, this is, this is what he said. he said, let me show you, samuel, i can't describe the feeling. we never thought our son, the best tennis player in the world, would have had to go through this, especially in such a far away land, where he had already proven himself was the best 9 times. it's incredible that this has happened to him and it has happened and it was in no way related to sports. it's all politics. he didn't deserve the visa refusal in the 1st place. we never had to deal with such politics, or politics is tennis. of course, we expect no fact to win his 21st grandson and his 10th australia knows perfectly. so because, i mean i 10 past the hour here at moscow. good to have you with us for the weekly

program. now the kremlin is insisting on concrete responses from the united states to was proposed of security guarantees. moscow says it'll outlined those measures in writing next week. it does follow in depth talks between russia and nato. although russia said those negotiations, highlighted dodge is continuing differences with ukraine being the main stumbling block, a correspondent, charlotte, do. whisky has more details. how do you solve a problem? like russia, easiest on the false weight is for a shot to de escalate. it is so that has to make a start trice, the escalation and diplomacy, or confrontation and consequences. that was the way from the u. s. a. nato, after they held a series of meetings with their russian counterparts. on one hand, they repeatedly said they were there to find solutions on the other. that solution was some have suggested one sided. russia has to make giant strides towards who do

you think it's a military presence. anyway, mean crane. if there is to be a d escalation of tensions for the russian delegation, the double speak was too much. we are fed up with the lose dog ha promises, misinterpretation of what happened, that different forms of negotiations behind closed doors. we do not trust the other side, so to see we need iron clad waterproof bulletproof, the legally binding guarantees not assurances, not safeguards guarantees. russia was also accused of not being serious about finding solutions to ease the frictions as it continued to deny its planning to invade ukraine. moscow saddened for clear proposals before the meetings took

place, outlining what assurances it wanted from the west foot own security. not crucially inconvenient nato slamming the door on membership to post soviet countries like ukraine, moscow old so hate out that meters idea of security. it won't extend to non members in nato expansion doesn't solve any problems of security. it moves division lines, doesn't remove them. so these are the other trends, this is nathan lodgement is aggressive. absolutely not true. and nathan launch month, how's in a corner soon for the spread of democracy and freedom across europe may till regurgitated the line that it is not a threat to russia. moscow didn't agree the u. s. and nato continued to conquer militarily, the territories of the countries included in the alliance and place offensive weapon systems. there ema, this directly poses a threat to the interests of the russian federation, was a final stab was made at finding common ground in vienna at the organization for

security and cooperation in europe. i supposedly neutral ground where unfortunately, the language from country representatives was anything but it seems. reads risk of war in the always sea area is now greater than ever before. in the last 30 years, the europeans also went down the smear campaign route, following a massive cyber attack and government sites in ukraine. the eas top diplomat tinting one can figure out who is behind this strike. the hackers have not yet been identified. and while the west continues to state it is spread democracy in put security to countries, rushes foreign minister disagrees rules. the west went too far. let's be frank in violation of all international obligations and common sense they chose to

escalate this situation. well, you see the west condemns violent actions against civilians. they condemn human rights violations. but when bloody codes are carried out by those who swear their allegiance to the west, the west embraces them. this is what happened with the ukrainian qu. many people died there, including at the hands of provocateurs and his crew was approved by the united states and the europeans just accepted that as fact. and no one is going to investigate the my down atrocities a mammoth week of talks has ended with well, a lot of hot air, no concrete proposals to move things forward. the only thing that they saw eye to eye on really was just how far apart they are, and that if talks fail, the consequences could be catastrophic. gelatine. ski r t. amsterdam. we discussed the possibility of nato's expansion into former soviet states with a panel of guests ukraine and even ga will. they would not be allowed to become

a full fledged member of nato because they have internal divisions within their own countries. and that is stipulated in the atlantic alliance of nato itself. so until those con, frozen conflicts are resolved. and they cannot be admitted as a member. but you have the united states and nato moving nato forces up to up to the black sea area, just opposite and wanting to go into ukraine and actually do military maneuvers with, with ukraine. and as well as georgia. and provide a so called defensive weapons, which easily could become offensive weapons. and this is, this is what moscow sees as a threat. it will be crazy for nato to get it ukraine on board. it's a failed state. it is a funny, full time and dangerous democracy in the making as the american say. and it

could turn into real war effort. ukraine joins later, not because russia would do anything, but simply because the whole has in here would do something stupid. the alliance should be responsible and not take anybody and within the alliance, believe me, several countries and not the small ones, don't want ukraine again. of course, there is an image that needs to be projected all unanimity, but it is not the case. and people realized in europe that it is very dangerous to have ukraine. and if only because of some of the whole hats in the west of the country that hey russia and i would do anything to stop the war. it's good to be with us for the weekly here on the sunday, british energy provide a found itself feeling the heat this week over to the vice to custom was on how to stay warm. it told people to cuddle their pets and do star jumps. it was part of a response to energy bills that are predicted to double this year. r t r t is

correspondence shot he had was doctrine now has the advice that was got so many people, so fired up. are you weighing up, eating or heating as bills are protected to sort of 2000 pounds a year for 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 starch. i'm. 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. be careful of your kids love and eat a hearty bowl of porridge. and of course, make sure you have a decent pair of socks 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 floss on that one. i have to say

a people say we're not stupid. i, we, we are literally trying notes that i eating on really freeze 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 you know i'd be slightly and salary by our i'm and i believe i know why with the event that i need to study my energy done next to jumper on seminar. so yeah, i want to be in solid bio for any other company, but i got to say, i wouldn't listen to everybody's, i got fixed them contract. that would suit me. 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, suggestions, politicians have criticized the coal 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 the 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 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 in the situation in the for the cost of living catastrophe. i think the hosting's an abomination. 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 hacked fi and i am terrified of the impact of businesses in the country. not just me. when i mean small businesses struggling, i just have to stop. we pay the bounce back later. 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 of solar and both electricity and gas t. 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 all together consent to ministers council,

the 0 carbon homes program. they bond on show when development, they lost the eco insulation program. they tore it up within one year, they were, you see, you case gas storage capacity. i don't want particularly silly movement. the current foreign secretary claim solar panels were risk to domestic food production . now all of these decisions have made this country more dependent on volatile wholesale energy prices than we otherwise would have been right now. we know this means as extremely situate, extremely difficult situation to british household, but also risks making archways the british industry and competitive a talk, a combination of spiking prices, tax hikes, the looming entity big build on the government's apparent reluctance to address these issues, may actually see ridiculous ideas like cuddling pat, how people overcome this. and the upcoming winter has become a reality shock. edwards dusty artie london soaring

energy bills and the only issue the u. k. government is facing these days, as well as families of those who died during the height of that you case 1st covered lockdown of now slammed a so called apology from prime minister boris johnson, as quote, an insult. that's after he admitted in parliament that despite severe restrictions on all gatherings back then, he attended a boozy basha, downing street, the opposition and even senior tories have since been piling pressure on the p. m. with some even calling for him to resign service that he was. i don't think he can continue. continue to fall, complain minister, asking people to follow the rules and guidance of his government. he did when i went into that god and just after 6 on the 20th of may, 2020, i believe implicitly that this was a work event. well may, 2020 was a bit of a challenging monitor britain. and much of the country was paralyzed by the 1st national lockdown. indoor meetings between households were strictly prohibited and

a maximum of true people could meet outside in a public place. well, we managed to speak to one man who during all of these national locked downs, had to struggle to arrange his father's view. this is about rules and about who the rose applies to become abundantly clear that the prime minister thinks that they didn't apply to him at the same time. but i was at my father's funeral. he was taking part in a, bring your own views, part number 10 downing street. my dad's team will be allowed to invite up to 5 people at the geno. say that meant it was just myself and my 4 siblings. and that could attend. there was no physical contract, so we went to hug each other. even the vicar holding the ceremony wasn't allowed to shake hands or anything like that. and as soon as the ceremony was over, we all had to go back, came again. they were author issuing bindings for people, meeting outside people were being fined money for meeting up people being harassed

by the police. if they hung around and parks for too long and the ultimate question, half of the prime minister is, why does he believe that the rules that he helped create that he made didn't apply to him? johnson's stated excuse has fought a wave of means online. even major companies like ryan air, have been posting mocking images. that was not the 1st part he gave scandal involving boris johnson. the end of last year pictures emerged on line, allegedly showing him taking part in several social events at downing street during the 2020 nationwide lockdown called for the prime minister. the step down have certainly been on the rise, is so ridiculous that is actually offensive to the press. you see now going to do the decent thing and resign. how stupid does the prime minister think the british people are right now? he's making fools of every single mp. oops, it him earlier. well,

the prime minister finally do the decent thing. i'm resigned for historian, peace be forced to show him the door issue for once, kind of primus for do the honorable thing and resigned. 79 percent of people in school on think that play medical should step down. and eventually you can do, you know, as, go with the story because he's being cool. there any most reside in my judgement and all the evidence that's concerned in the face for the last few months. now, i think it's abundantly clear that bars johnson doesn't have an ounce of self decency in him. leading by example, as a really key element of thought leadership and his claire. the not only this bars strong, some not have thought more leadership at the moment, but there's no pathway for him to get back. and that's why, for as long as he remains prime minister, i think we're going to stay in

a state of limbo in this country and ultimately is putting more people at risk. when you say these words out loud, that the government has done everything they could to save lives. the say little weights, these words that they can just hang. and yet the messaging throughout has been terrible. the following of that only scientific vices has been at best patchy, and at worst they've gone against scientific advice. and the result has been nearly about a $175000.00 dust now, which is deep upsetting. ah, prince andrew, the queen's 2nd son has been stripped of his military. i said all him at a high profile sex abuse case. he will also no longer be known as his royal highness in any official capacity. it does come after us judge refused to dismiss a civil lawsuit from a woman accusing him of sexually assaulting her when she was a teenager. a buckingham palace released the following statement. with the queen's approval in agreement,

the duke of york's military affiliations and royal patronage is up in return to the queen. the vehicle continue not to undertake any public duties on defending this case. as a private citizen. the case in question was given the go ahead on wednesday, it was filed by virginia defray, who accused the prince of sexually assaulting her when she was a minor. and she says she was trafficked by convicted peter fall, jeffery epstein, and forced to have sex with the prince. it seems property. the printer has denied all of the allegations. now the allegations 1st surfaced around 2 years ago, a back in 2019. the prince gave a lengthy interview to the b, b. c. in which he said he didn't even recall meeting his accuser. however, after that interview, he stepped down from all public duties. but till now, he had still been linked to 8 british regiments, including holding a military rank of the iconic, granted the gods. now, earlier, more than $150.00 british army veterans wrote a letter to the queen asking her to strip andrew of all of his ranks and titles with the military saying that at the end of the day he had failed to meet its highest standards. former home office minister norman baker believes the queen has

made the right move. i think we're going to have a summer or a year old in pharmacy revelations, it under require to provide evidence to the american coach wants to bring him as possible. so that's, that of course required, right, to say the legally people are jo proven guilty in this country. i didn't even america. and therefore, you could argue that you should operate until the cold case is you also in your rooms and met myself in proper, really unjustly tasteful, to carry on with that. he started rolled onto the remote in one of the within to get to the queen. and was not as though he's being fined or anything like that. and simply having given to him by the queen, taken away,

the bulk of russian peacekeepers in kazakhstan, have now left the country. and that's after that brief mission that was declared complete with vladimir putin saying it was time they came home zamiah's, sister, it is obvious that people who've been protesting for gas price reduction. and those who've been fighting with the armed forces for several days with weapons in the hands surrounding them in places of deployment, completely different people. they have different goals. the fact that with the health of the c s t o, it was possible to restore the situation is very important to this is the 1st such operation of the c s t o to allow has exist on to solve it socio economic issues. and it calm dialogue with the people in general, we need to go home. we've completed the task here. the cadillac authorities requested help from the c. s. t, a military alliance of the deadly unrest was sweeping the nation. it was originally triggered by protests over searching fuel prices,

but it was many troops. our troops from armenia, bella roost, could have guessed on russia and just on all taking part. and they arrived in cuz its don on january the 5th and we'll talk with god in key buildings on infrastructure and with order now reportedly restored. the last peacekeepers are expected to leave in the next few days. now, despite the troops being in the country, at the request of the catholic president, some western media and politicians were quick to claim otherwise, alleging the russian contention to particular was that to stay in order to seize territory. well, he is a washington put at one lesson of recent history is that once the russians are in your house, sometimes very difficult to get them to leave to say the least that moscow was a little bit unimpressed by the u. s. secretary of state's remarks saying it revealed more about washington's intentions in eurasia, or with us. just going to wrap up this. i was addition of the weekly here are not international thanks for sharing the time with us here at moscow. the top stories

of the week and of the day to return to the top of.
