with also with russia, making it clear a wants potential ukrainian nato membership off the table. the german chancellor plays down the likelihood of that happening that has he had to moscow off the cold or the ukrainian, the president in 1st impression. everything here is covered either in the snow or ice chilling report from the coldest, inhabited town in the world. ortiz, concertina rush, coff discovered how locals live in a place where the average wind temperature is minus 50 degrees celsius with or that is a tuesday, february, the 15th. and just after 8 am here in moscow, we are already off door running. start here with all the international. welcome to
12:02 am
your news. so canada's prime minister justin trudeau has triggered the emergencies act for the 1st time in the country's history. it is in response to the peaceful truckers convoy protest that is now into it's 3rd week. the act is supposed to be applied only in case of a national crisis and gives the government additional powers for 30 days, including, for example, the ability to close bank accounts and seize vehicles. a critic say the so called freedom convoy, protest against the vaccine mandates. don't amount to a threat to national security with premieres and some canadian province is saying they don't want the emergency legislation implemented on their territories. we don't believe this is necessary and alberta, we think it could actually be somewhat counterproductive. it is not legitimate and it is useless. so we don't want it and we don't want the extent of the powers that
12:03 am
the federal government could give itself. meanwhile in the countries capital city also supporters of a truckers remain come out on parliament hill. there is a bit of a festival atmosphere that with loud music being played, some people dancing as well. we spoke with a freedom boy, ontario organizer about the newly triggered government powers. he told us the prime minister should resort to dialogue. not for i think you the tower do not. let's be honest here. real leaders will come out and talk to the people. they'll come in and find resolve and resolution, especially when the people are being peaceful. and they're only asking that the mandates and we have not used any violence. we have not caused any problems. in fact, we've, we've done more good than these leaders, the so called leaders in ottawa, who keep attacking us with media and lies. so for us, we're not moving, we're not going anywhere until our demands are met, regardless of what just intruder says we're trying to be. we don't watch any kind
12:04 am
of escalation of any sort of government who continues to double down with an irish. just what i'd like to see though is the government to actually come out and talk to us and hear what we have to say, rather than continuously try to talk on people. things have now reached a point where even showing support for the freedom convoy. it could cost you, your job is vancouver radio host kit carson found out off the saying the movement was not racist. house to radio show expect to talk about all sorts of things. but it seems i have to avoid talking about all the things that really matter. and it's especially hard with the thing that's happening in ottawa. we spoke with a pastor, henry hildebrand, who says that the more repressive the government is, the more people will support the truck. it's. the majority of canadians are on the
12:05 am
side of the moving freedom movement. because at this point, you don't have 16 percent support in the polls, which we all know isn't a lot and it's going to, it keeps on diminishing as he forcefully acts against his own citizens against the people that bordered him in it. is it i don't think much will change because the more the more he presses the people, the more it confirms that they are standing up for what they should be stand up for, which is our god given freedom. we can keep up any more. we don't know what is closing is closing is opening up right now. if we were removing this by keeping out, he said it's keeping the math. people cannot go to the sports hall so which one is that we can keep track? and the freedom convoy is getting support beyond canada or the belgian capital, the latest global city of held or rally and solidarity. people came from all over the e. u to attend and voice their objection to that of covey to restrictions. sharla dupont ski was there for us. ah,
12:06 am
as you can see, we've now got tensions in the crowds. the police have formed this barricade on the one side of us and less than about 5 or 6 meters away. there's a barricade on the other side. what they're doing now is a catalina into this one area and not allowing us to pass at this moment. you may have just seen that man trying to get past the police and then being pushed back by the offices here. a protest is, have come out. they say to be peaceful, they say that they want to join other protest across the city, but quite frankly, that is not being allowed. the authorities are trying to keep it laid on any issues
12:07 am
here in brussels of my life. so actually i can listen any more. this is just like a freedom and a, it's been several months i would like to, to back to musician protest and it's the 1st time i had a chance to to do it. so i'm doing it. and i mean, i'm really need someone to this and it's a shame i just received. guess in my eyes, the curb. it's safe to get an update, but it feed, it's really dividing people into different categories and people offered to each other instead of a unifying. and i've been quite as a shame, a tradition, we will not lose our freedom. we will accept no lies, tear gas was fired at protesters on the chance alizae. i was also head on the street. i am 68 years old. this is a dictatorship regime, as all the people i know are already vaccinated. i don't news. we came to the protest to support our french friends. we walked many kilometers. we are not against vaccines. we are against vaccine passes. for the most part,
12:08 am
the convoy failed in its subjective traffic, was stopped and rattled, didn't fall under the power of the movement. that feels as if it had a strong social media presence. however, protest this did achieve. but one thing compelling anti coves restriction movements from several countries across europe under one banner to show that they have a voice and to demand that it heard charlotte's even sky all t ruffles. russian figures getting prodigy camilla valley. ava has spoken to the media for the 1st time about the impact of the doping scandal . she's been embroiled and she was clear to compete by the court of arbitration for support on monday, this is what you had to say. me whether it's good for me because i would say yeah,
12:09 am
rather it's not so sure. it's a good fit for michelle, cuz you just figured out that's a tie less course live now to correspond that in beijing ortiz alexi shasky where it's just about a 10 parts one in the afternoon. the alexi today, the women single short program competition, getting underway. valley ever of course, is the favorite $11.00 does how she's faring amid all this latest extra pressure. and actually, how was she and what, what's the mood and the arossi come today? well, indeed, the individual figure stating championship for women's stotts to night. and by
12:10 am
general, eva is among the last 5 figures, kate, us to take to the ice. that will happen about 10 p. m local time here. and it's a big question as to how she is emotion in a fit for this competition. you just saw the bit of an interview with a russian broadcasting channel. here she was very emotional. she was fighting back tears. and it's a big question whether she will be able to perform as she usually does in such circumstances. we have to understand that the believer is not just as states as she is head and shoulders above everyone, pretty much in the world right now. she's a heavy favorite to win gold. and also let's not forget that on the should buckle and alexander too. so are all also very strong figures, status representing r o c. there will be also competing in that program. so there is a heavy chance that on thursday when the individual female eyes figure skating championship rounds up, the entire r o c podium will be there. but we've already heard from the international olympic committee that should believe or be anywhere within the top 3. when the
12:11 am
championship rounds up, there will be no metals ceremony that is, according to the eye, you'll see statement as they said, that they can not hold a metal ceremony. not even for the a team figure skating event, which happens a 10 days ago where oliva was a part of the program. ah, this is quite a, you know, a divisive decision have many have said already that it's controversial. and to add even more fuel to the fire that they had of i use ease, disciplinary committee also came up with a somewhat awkward statement saying that they did feel sorry for all the clean athletes, even if they are from russia. if that is a joke, while many said that this is kind of a bad joke for. busy an official of such a high stature here in beijing. in any case, there's been also a flurry of wards of support for camille oliver. i believe we can listen to some of those july to this case. i wish for you to remain calm and patient during the
12:12 am
situation you any. it's very difficult, you know, and a lot of passion. yeah. but as a great athletes, you will overcome all these and perform wonderfully. we believe in me somewhere to for the thought, everything will be fine. you'll get through it. don't worry. i will let you know. i want to wish her good luck and say that's lucky, very much a proud of her success and hope she changed. again. she's looking forward to seeing you piece of, i'm very worried about her from the bottom of my heart. i wish her success regardless of how the competition goes. he and mange in beijing for females, caters in the individual program. we understand everyone understands here that it's just the beginning of the story cur. believer is allowed to participate, but clearly there will be an investigation. there will be legal cases trying to find out where the she really did use the banned substance tri, met as a dean just before coming here to beijing. but we've already heard from the russian anti doping agency in a statement that indeed there was
12:13 am
a irregularity when it comes to the doping testing. because roo saw the claims that they did send the probe to the stock home laboratory, accredited by water on time. and for whatever reason, the result came back only on september 7th, a result of believe that there was absolutely no obstacle whatsoever for that laboratory to produce the positive test before the olympics. and of course, that would have disqualified camila eva from participation in this games. and this full roar would have been largely avoided and obviously the litigation that it will ensue after the olympics is over, also would have been avoidable. in any case, i'm going that tonight to see how camila leave a performance to get some reactions as well. and of course, i will keep all of us updated with everything i hear and see and managing, and i'm sure we'll be speaking to you very soon as well. latino, alexia, sh, epsky. thank you. the german chancellor, olaf schoultz is heading here to moscow for talks on the ukrainian crisis with the
12:14 am
russian leader vladimir putin. it's after he met with ukrainian president on monday, a during that media conference and key of sholtes played down the prospects of ukraine joining nato. the fargo from the question of membership in alliances in practice isn't an issue. so it is somewhat odd to see that the russian government is making something that in practice is not on the agenda. the object of great political difficulty or breakfast when it comes to what support berlin will be providing for kia vol. i've shult said that germany remained committed to its partner to the east, but what he said they wouldn't be doing. we're sending weapons lethal aid to ukraine. however, the german chancellor was very keen to point out exactly how much financial aid germany had already sent to ukraine and said that they would continue to do that in the future. we are finally with more than $2000000000.00. we have made the
12:15 am
ukrainian economy more resilient and independent in the face of foreign influence. we have in short as we're tanami and resilience. and i can assure you that we will continue this support with the same determination. all f sholtes and said that germany will be part of sanctions that will be leveled at russia if there is an invasion of ukraine. but all of schoultz is also pointed out, particularly when he was stood alongside joe, by not so long ago, the sanctions against russia would have a serious impact upon germany. if you look at trade, germany exports $30000000000.00 a year to rusher. it imports around $19000000000.00 a year from russia when it comes to energy. germany gets 36 percent of its pipeline gas from russia. it gets 34 percent of its crude oil from russia. all of those things absolutely crucial to keeping germany's industrial power house. it's a colony, in fact,
12:16 am
taking over all of those things that would be impacted by sanctions if they were imposed upon russia. all of these things, of course, have to be kept in mind by the german chancellor. it's going to be an interesting meeting between all f shows and vladimir, and we'll be keeping a close eye on it here at our t. all of the news as it comes out to moscow course we'll have it for you. we spoke to german politician or 7, dr. lane on a variety of issues ranging from a north stream to and the implementation of uminski agreements to the delivery of lethal weapons to ukraine. is it because in fact it is good that the federal government continues to say no to direct arms deliveries, funding. i also hope that the german government will not approve how it says in my opinion, this would compromise. so a position of immediate and dialect part of the russia also in the normandy form, and it would make us unreliable on it is particularly important
12:17 am
that the german government does not take orders from the u. s. on in this regard. i think it's scandalous that the u. s. president declared that the european russian energy project will not string to would be terminated in case of russian invasion of ukraine now. which of course, also shows what he thinks of the democratic sovereignty of germany and the european union as a whole. the united states perceives european countries as satellite states. and the german government must also point out that it is not prepared to allow european citizens, especially german citizens, to have high energy costs. because of the u. s. jo, political policy of confrontation, not seem to, is in the interest of the german people of energy prices are rising and rising and there is no prospect of its ending and germany. i consider it politically comically and environmentally stupid to want to bury such a project because of the g strategic goals of the us. the people who would suffer from such a policy would be the people of germany and a cindy. it is completely
12:18 am
unacceptable that ukraine has been sabotaged the means agreements and especially means to for a long time, we must now insist that ukraine and all sides implement music too. and at the same time that the stein my formula is actually applied here is one thing is clear why we as european citizens, cannot allow ourselves to be held hostage by a government that continues to fatten. their oligarchs lie at the same time escalate the situation at the expense of the population in ukraine. u. s. house speaker nancy pelosi has distanced herself from cold within her own part, who to be fun. the police. of course, it was a rallying cry of the black lives matter movement. in recent years, the california democrat insists it was never supported by the democrats. that is not the position of the democratic party. community safety to protect and defend in every way is our oath of office,
12:19 am
or policy will be running for reelection in the mid terms in november, hoping to extend her 30 year run in congress in paulding suggest is going to be a bit of a bumpy ride. with support for the democrats in free fall, the idea of slashing police funding is just one of many issues where prominent democrats have been at odds with the majority of voters. is what some of them have said in the past. when we say define police, what we mean as people are dying and we need to invest in people's livelihoods. instead example, detroit spent $294000000.00 on police last year and $9000000.00 on health. this is systemic oppression in numbers. we're going to defend the police and refund our social services don't like this idea. well, we don't like dead black and brown bodies and broken families at the hands of those sworn to protect us. the police have failed at fixing themselves. so we're going to do it too many police in our country are more concerned with protecting white
12:20 am
supremacy than serving the communities that paid salaries to fund the police. became a popular slogan after the killing of george floyd at the hands of a policeman and may 2020. at the height of the unrest. more than 20 major us cities, including new york, chicago, and seattle slashed than law enforcement budgets. but those constant work later reversed offshore a spike in violent crime and new record homicide rates as well. meanwhile, the latest u. s. polls, but support for the democrats at 42 percent. well, 47 percent back. the republican party and analysts say this. so state of play could be reflected in the upcoming midterms with joe biden's party, losing serious ground. and we discussed the issue with our dominic, his oh, or tide police officer. or she isn't, remember that the rhetoric against law enforcement, the last several years has been completely, well, that's the worst i've ever seen it. and in my time and law enforcement. so i think that the democrats right there, it is back tracking or in
12:21 am
a mid term election year. and all the sudden you're going to need to, you need to have the balance between the police in the communities. so this is, it's just their same tactic. every single year, this is a big, synergistic go back and forth between the cops who are not allowed to do their jobs . criminals, you could do whatever they want. and politicians who are blaming the cups. so it's, it's, it's black and white and a story. i honestly think for all the attention we're giving the american police officer, we're not giving them a much enough attention for where it needs to be, which is how is this affecting them? no one is talking about that, and that's a big conversation that needs to be had. so of course, russia has a bit of a reputation for being rather a chilly place when a dated is host of the coldest town on earth. it's a well locals, our daily lives take place in temperatures below 50 degrees celsius. it's a, it's called ami icon, and archie is constantine roscoe, brave the weather to film a special extended report for us. his are the 1st to over 4 pots. the other 3 will be shown over the next few days. ah,
12:22 am
arise the journey to the coldest place on earth starts and you go to the capital of a vast russian region and siberia, i called you cold here. it's already pulled in here, according to the cities, thermometer is minus 34 degrees celsius or minus 29 fahrenheit for setting out for or mac on our final destination tomorrow morning. so we have some time on our hands to explore the city of vehicles, which is by the way, the largest city on our planet built in permafrost. the city's population is over 330000 people. most of them live in buildings built on piley's quite common in this part of the world. the gap between the 1st floor in the frozen ground helps the building stay worn during the cold winter months. first impression, everything here is covered either in the snow or ice. sidewalks is rose, cars, buildings, trees,
12:23 am
power lines, everything. when it's this cold, nothing works the way you're used to. when local police came over to check up on us, they wrote down our names with a pencil, a regular ball point pen would have simply frozen and become useless. and these temperatures are equipment started acting up right as we left. or how tell a camera battery that usually last for hours died in just 30 minutes. when we walk into a cafe to warm it up, i found my i phone had switched off and was covered in frost. this was a rookie mistake on my part though. in yu coach and everyone knows how to look out for their smartphone. so it doesn't die in the extreme cold. i always put my phone in my inner pocket to keep it warm, otherwise the battery quickly died in the cold and you end up with no connection. as we talked with this man, children behind us were happily playing for them. it was just the normal winter day
12:24 am
and they definitely didn't want to waste it by sitting at home. yet most outsiders would find the local climate truly extreme in you could hear it's definitely cold in the winter, but it also gets incredibly hot in the summer months. it's like the last summer was so hot, so scorching that the original is here where the record breaking wildfires and there are people you see on the street are raving the cold weather as they go bothering day with business. they were suffering from sweltering heat and smoke less than 6 months ago. farming is difficult in this climate. so hunting and fishing have always been the main source of food for locals, as can be seen at the local market. the low temperature is actually come in handy as the sellers don't need special equipment to refrigerate the food. what are you
12:25 am
going to do with the whole fish? how will you prepare it? we're going to make pies ross made and come with. we're going to eat, deliver ra wrong. yes, ross at the danger? no, it's been froze over. there are no germs left. none of these treat vendors stay out on the cold 12 hours. the date a temperature is as low as minus 40 degrees celsius about minus 40 fahrenheit. some of them stand on fur. i've made from reindeer hines to keep their feet off the frozen ground. feel i p sam and for a while to feel warm up a bit, to be honest. this was a relief as my feet had gone numb after just a few hours outside. almost everyone i met on the streets. tell me my boots didn't look warm enough for the weather. i see you wherever boots. that's fine, but it's muggy and so on. you really need to pay with during the winter with
12:26 am
the do you think these will last long that foreign booth then a good for russia local. send me to another market where they usually buy their winter clothes. when i showed a shopkeeper my boots and told him, i'm going like these toy mack on. he literally did this and told me i was not dad. he gave me a pair of veiled boards and even bernie piece of the fur to prove it was in fake. why am i supposed to smell harriage to smell like hair or 3200 rubles? and i'll take the field, of course the type of footwear is less important if you can get around in a car, but looking after a vehicle in the winter months here presents a lot of challenges. you leave your car exposed to the frigid weather like this for is a great chance. you won't be able to start in the morning. so what to do about it?
12:27 am
by garage? well, it is an option, but here the garage going to cost almost as much as a small apartment. so locals came up with a brilliant idea of covering the recalls in war, blankets, or tans which out keep some of the engine heat inside a car blanket like this cost around $130.00 us dollars. and it's a hot item in this town during winter. the owners usually write their personal details like their license plate number on them to prevent them from being stolen. and other thing that he see quite often here on the streets that would appear bizarre for someone who lives in a different climate car's running with our drivers. here you can see there is no driver, but the car is running. is the people here, they use remote starters to heat up their vehicles from the car for it of their own
12:28 am
house. so that's what happens if you leave your car unprotected and don't warm it up at night. it will completely freeze it and you won't be able to start it. not at all. no chance. it's impressive to see such a big and sustainable community living in one of the world's most unwelcome in settings. these people have adapted to the harsh climate so well. most of them wouldn't even consider living anywhere else. we know disappointments, we have noticed his childhood, in fact, it seems that the freezing period is getting shorter every year, and it's getting a bit warmer, but where we're going, it's even colder and then you could ask, ah,
12:29 am
the monopoly the semiconductor business would obviously be anti one with 80 percent of the market and going forward. the need for diversity in the chip market is been screaming out loud for decades. but because of the vagaries of theat money that allow for a concentration of power and wealth in the cluster craddick cans of the caca stock or see the least qualified to rule. you have market breakdown supply chain breakdown and economic collapse. lou lou ah, a check with
12:30 am
he said did is it a one hit junk a post it with a like. a a 3rd to coordinate a callback to say off or if it was a call back with.
