ah ah miss alice top headlines, anaki international kind of those prime minister triggers. aiden napa for youth emergencies. act granting is government extra powers. in response to the truck, this convoy protests, it has created concerned among provincial chiefs to question the measures point and legitimacy. 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. teenager, russian of figure skating star camila valley ever holds back that he is in boston. did you since being clear to compete at the window games and made a doping scandal she's due to take part in the women's a single getting competition on tuesday evening, beijing time. oh,
3:01 am
yeah. with a form with also in the program in germany's chancellor hint that one of russia's red lines that are ukranian a membership of nato isn't even on the cards that during our stuff off in kiev ahead of christ talks right here in moscow with your stories are off to a running start today, here or not, you international, i rural re sushi at moscow. welcome to. so canada is a prime minister just intruder has triggered the emergencies act for the 1st time in the history of the country. he claims that
3:02 am
a truck is protest that's now into his 3rd week, is threatening the security of canadian. here in our capital city, families, small businesses have an enduring illegal obstruction of their neighborhoods, occupying streets, harassing people, breaking the law. this is not a peaceful protest. we cannot and will not allow illegal and dangerous activities to continue. however, civil liberties group say the criteria for triggering the hasn't come anywhere near to being satisfied. they are hard to meet by design as the act once activated allows government to bypass democratic procedures. while the whole act is supposed to be applied only in the event of a national crisis, and it gives the government extra powers for 30 days, including the ability to well seize bank accounts and remove vehicles. critic say
3:03 am
the so called freedom convoy, protest against vaccine mandates. doesn't amount to a threat to national security with some premieres and some canadian province is saying they don't want the emergency legislation implemented on the 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 the federal government could give itself. meanwhile, the country's capital city auto support is off. the truck has remained camped around parliament hill. there was a festive atmosphere, loud music. some people were dancing and we spoke with a freedom convoy ontario organizer about the newly triggered government powers. he told us, prime minister trudeau should resort to dialogue. not false. i think he is a tower. do not. let's be honest here, real leaders will come out and talk to the people don't come and find result in
3:04 am
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, an auto group 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 it just says or tries to be. we don't watch any kind 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 continuous. we try to talk on people, things have not reached a point where showing support for the freedom convoy could even cost you your job. vancouver radio station has fired host kid carson. after you said the movement was
3:05 am
not racist. it's also taken down his page on the site. the station associate respects his freedom of speech, but objects to him, calling facts what it sees as a misleading and inaccurate opinion. what caused himself says the station wasn't letting him do his job properly. house to radio show, i'm 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 having an ottawa. we spoke with pastor henry hildebrand, who says that the more repressive the government is, the more the people will support the truck. it's. the majority of canadians are on the 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
3:06 am
people that voted him in it. is it i don't think much will change because the more the more he presses to people, the more it confirms that they are standing up for what they should be signing up for, which is our god given freedom. we can keep up any more. we don't know is closing, closing is opening up right now as we were removing this by keeping out, he said is keeping the math. people cannot go to the sports hall so which one is that we can keep trying and the freedom convoys gaining support beyond canada. the belgian capital of the latest global city to have a rally in solidarity of people came from all across the u. u to attend and voice their objections to covert mandates and restrictions and all of the think of it has all correspondent, as usual. charlotte to penske. ah ah.
3:07 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. and what they're doing now is a catalyst 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, i 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 as the authorities are trying to keep it laid on any issues here in brussels. so actually i can send any more, deserves like a freedom. and i mean, i'm really need someone to please, and it's a shame i just received. guess in my eyes, the curb. it's safe to get an update. but he said it's really dividing people in 2
3:08 am
different categories, and people are parked in each other instead of a unifying. and i think by just a shame that we will not lose our freedom, we will accept no lies, tear gas was fired at protest isn't jonesal. he say, i was also he, on the street and 60 years old, the said dictatorship for him, as all the people i know already vaccinated. although new, we came to the protest to support our french friends. we walked many kilometers. we are not against vaccines. we are against vaccine passes, do socket on it. for the most part, the convoy failed in its objectives. traffic wasn't stopped and brussels didn't fall on to the power over movement that feels as if it had a strong social media presence. however, protest this did achieve, but one thing, compelling anti covey restriction movements from several countries across europe,
3:09 am
under one band to show that they have a voice and to demand that it heard charlotte, even ski, aussie brussels russian figures getting prodigy camilla valley ever had to hold back the tears as she spoke to the media for the 1st time about the doping scandal that has rocked her lympics. she was clear to can carry on competing by the court of arbitration for sport on monday. this is what she had to say. in reason, you know, whether it's good for me, i would say yeah, rather, not sure if we were going to she, you know, if there's a for michelle cuz you just figured out some of the
3:10 am
value of a claims that she may have tested positive for a banned substance after mixing up her grand dad's medication with her own. now that's according to media report, citing a member of the i o. c disciplinary commission. the figures schedule is due to take part in the women's single skating competition later on tuesday evening, basing time, and they're on the host city, alexia shasky, reports oliver is among the last 5. fig escaped 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
3:11 am
a heavy favorite to win gold. and also let's not forget that on the sheer buckle and alexander to 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, the entire r o c podium will be there. but we've already heard from the international imp a committee that should believe or be anywhere within the top 3. when the championship rounds up, there will be no metals ceremony that is, according to the eye, you'll see statement that they said that they can not hold a metal ceremony. not even for the team figure skating event, which happened to 10 days ago, where of oliva was a part of the program. now, 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 they had of i uses disciplinary committee also came up
3:12 am
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 camila believe i should like to this case. i wish for you to remain calm and hey, she turned education your age. it's very difficult here and a lot of yeah, that's a great ask. thank you, over camels lease and perform wonderfully. all that we believe in museum. can somebody have had a thought? everything will be fine. you'll get through it. don't worry about it literally, you know, just i want to wish her good luck and say very much a proud of her success in hip she teams again receive money, purchasing a piece of land, very worried about half from the birth of my hi irish, her success golf, regardless of how the competition goes, he and range in beijing whole female skaters in the individual program. we
3:13 am
understand everyone understands here that it's just the beginning of the story. cause 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 ban 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 a irregularity when it comes to the doping testing. because roo saw the claims that they did send the probe to the stockholm laboratory accredited by water on time. so to 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 camille oliver from participation in his 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,
3:14 am
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 may j. lenimosa come here in the program on our team. we discover what life is like in the coldest, inhabited place on earth. with the average wind to temperature is below minus 50 degrees celsius. we've got that story and much more with backing just ah, blue with
3:15 am
the monopoly. the semiconductor business would obviously be in taiwan with 80 percent of the market and going forward. the need for diversity in they ship 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 hands of the caca stock or see the least qualified to rule. you have market breakdown supply chain breakdown and economic collapse. ah right now quote off the out here on the russian capital. so the german chancellor, olaf schultz has played down the prospect of ukraine joining nato. his remarks were
3:16 am
made during his visit in kiev on monday. his next stop is right here at moscow, where he'll discuss the ukraine crisis with the russian lead of vladimir putin who has long made it clear that he abs, accession to the alliance, is a red line. the fact that the question of membership and 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 at 1st as part of that 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 king 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. me,
3:17 am
us finally with more than $2000000000.00 we have made the ukrainian economy more resilient and independence 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 the support with the same determination, all of schoultz 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 russia. 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 economy in
3:18 am
fact, 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 shows and vladimir and will be keeping a close eye on it here at r t. all the news as it comes out to moscow course we'll have it for you. jailed kremlin critic i like seen of only is on trial again. he's facing fresh fraud and contempt of court charges. he's been in prison since 2021 for breaking the conditions of a suspended embezzlement sentence. let's learn more right now of crossing live talk is donald court, who's just outside the hearing dawn, a bit of a cold day for you that we appreciate you being that for us. tell us more about the case and what this might mean for mr. nevada. hi there, rory. well just recently we saw the russian opposition figure alex st. volney enter
3:19 am
the hearing room. he was able to embrace his wife there who is now also visiting for the trial. and these proceedings are actually pretty extraordinary because they're taking place in a prison administration building right behind me, as you can see up the road and they are not taking place in a court building. the judge and the lawyers have come here for the trial, and journalists have been invited to observe the proceedings, but unfortunately, we can't film any any farther up for farther up the road from this point. but hopefully we're going to hear from the prosecution and the defense after the trial to hear the main takeaways now alexson of allney's right now facing 2 new charges today. first is for a 1st is for contempt of court that was leveled against him during his hearings for disrespecting, a veteran of the 2nd world war. and the 2nd one is an fraud charge. he's being accused of defrauding. don't a donors of through 350000000 roubles that were intended for the anti corruption
3:20 am
foundation. that's an of all news organization that he founded. and that has since been labeled a, an extremist organization by the russian authority. so the defense actually says that there's no evidence to prove that the volley was defrauding donors. but if he is found guilty of this, he's looking at a fine of up to $200000.00 roubles and 8 up to a total of 15 years behind bars. now, to just remind our viewers in of all he was arrested in january of last year after his return from germany, where he was receiving medical treatment for an alleged poisoning. a russian authority say that he had repeatedly violated the conditions of his suspended embezzlement sentence. and that's why he's right now serving 2 and a half years for that, but we're gonna have to see what happens now because whatever a verdict that is accepted here today may change that. so ration nor had art on a quarter. thank you. was as you could see from where donna was reporting from just
3:21 am
now, russia does have a bit of a reputation for being a very chilly place. and indeed it's host to the coldest town on us. locals daily lives, take place and temperature is far below minus 50 degrees celsius, the town called, or mac on an ortiz concertina roscoe brave, the weather film, a special extended report for us here is the 1st of 4 pots. the other 3 will be shown over the next few days. ah, arise, he journey to the coldest place on earth starts and he goes to the capital of a vast russian region. h iberia, called you quote, you already pulled in here, according to the city's thermometer. it's minus $34.00 degrees celsius or minus $29.00 fahrenheit for said an hour for or mac on our final destination to morrow morning. so we have some time on our hands to explore the city of mucus, which is by the way, the largest city on our planet built in permafrost. the
3:22 am
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, road, cars, buildings, trees, 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 equipped and started acting up right. as we left our hotel, a camera battery that usually last for hours died in just 30 minutes. when we walk
3:23 am
into a cafe to warm it up, i found my i phone had switched off and was covered and frost. this was a routine 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. when i always put my phone in my in a pocket, keep it warm. otherwise, the battery quickly died in the cold and you end up with no connection. as we talk with this man, children behind a very happily plane for them, it was just the normal inter day, and they definitely didn't want to waste it by sitting at home. yet most outsiders would find a 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 fan very big when you see on the street or
3:24 am
graving, the cold weather as they go by the day of business. they were suffering from sweltering heat and smoke less than 6 months ago. so 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 a special equipment to refrigerate the food. what are you going to do with the whole fish? how will you prepare it? we're going to make pies rose made and come with. we're going to eat, deliver ra wrong. yes, ross at the dangerous or no, it's been froze over. there are no germs left. one of these treat vendors stay out on the cold. 12 hours a day, a temperature is as low is minus 40 degrees celsius, about minus 40 fahrenheit. some of them stand on fur. i've made from brain dear
3:25 am
hines to keep their feet off the frozen ground, like a sam a for a while for a 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 were rubber boots. that's fine, but it's muggy and so on. really need to pair with during the winter . when they get the do you think these will last long that far and 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. he said, he gave me a pair of veiled boards and even bernie piece of the fur to prove it was in fake.
3:26 am
why am i supposed to smell harriage to smell a care 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 to leave your car exposed to the fridge and weather like this. is a great chance you won't be able to start in the morning. so what do you do about it? by garage? well, it is an option here, a garage good cause almost as much as a small apartment. so locals came up with a brilliant idea of covering the recalls in war, blankets or tents, which out keep some of the engine heat inside a car blanket like this cost around $130.00 us dollars. and it's
3:27 am
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 is steve, 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. you see people here, they use remote starters to heat up their vehicles from the comp of their own house . hopefully 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 are able to start it. not at all. no, no chance. ah, it's impressive to see such a big in 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 this crime is we
3:28 am
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 and you could ask. mm hm with bring you the very latest every out the day. this is zaki nash. no fun. everyone had help with
3:29 am
the democratic republic of congo is among the richest countries in the world. and natural resources, but he cannot mclee it's still one of the poorest cobalt is an essential material in manufacturing. batteries fun auden devices like electric cars, mobile phones and computers. 60 percent of the wealth cobalt reserves are in congo for 20 percent of it comes from small scale mines. unicef figures confirm that in 2017 gold and 40000 children worked in cobalt mining and the i'd like to enter living and pay for schooling. next time you use a fancy gadget like a smartphone camera laptop, and just remember that there's a chance it works. thanks to what child hold labor. children like john michelle henry at all countless others like them. ah ah,
3:30 am
i am back kaiser. this is the kaiser report, max and stacy are in el salvador on the cutting edge of the big coin revolution, where the president is out there building stuff because big corners like to build stuff. stacy? well, you know, i did say recently here and on twitter i said, bit queen plus bu kelly equals boom and tourism. well, we have some numbers and i a not, i'll be a little bit, i'm just, i'm not bragging, humble, bragging here. but a lot of the tourism here, if people are here to meet max and stacy, we meet them all over the street. people who flew in because they saw our tweets. and we've had a fun time meeting. everybody. i kind of feel like we're part of the love boat like where the.
