of luck with a top headlines and right now here when asked the international, the war that never was the western media is left with egg on its face. softer a flowery of predictions that there would be an innovation of ukraine today, instead of russian troops returning to base off the wrapping up drills along the border. but some columns seem to stop by the drums of war, the u. s. president for one who's insisting that the threat of an attack remained very real and with uncertainty over ukraine, pushing up energy prices, germans farrah shortage, and electricity supplies could lead to nationwide blackouts. here at o t, we hear that concerns. our politicians continue to act like they do in the foreign policy with russia and other countries. the blackouts may happen. the problem is politicians are afraid of not being elected. if they do something wrong. it is hard
3:01 am
and krisha about the price of petrol and transport. their data needs to be more supporting the prime minister is in denial and is ignoring the science. he might as well be back at the cottage because he's doing nothing productive or constructive to help this situation. canadian prime minister just intruder is facing mounting pressure from mpm over his decision to trigger emergency powers that are really meant if a times of a national price. if it's sold in response to a protest by truck with all right, 11 am on sunshine in moscow. welcome to you, wednesday headlines. it's oxy international. it does seem that war mongering is rather hard to stop once it gets started. despite russia announcing it was withdrawing troops from his border with ukraine and backing that up with defense ministry videos showing departing tanks. washington however says,
3:02 am
cannot verify any of thrush in defense minister reporting today. and some military units are leaving their positions near ukraine. that would be good. but we have not yet verified that we have not yet verified the russian military units are returning to their home basis. all right, let's learn more about this right now with all these total court. joining us in the studio today, donald is almost seemingly getting more and more confusing. i mean, what do western professional partners want, if withdrawing the troops apparently, isn't enough? well, at this point, it seems like whatever you tell western officials, they're just going to believe what they want to believe. it doesn't matter that the russians defense ministry said that they're going to be bringing their, their troops home on tuesday or that vladimir putin and serve a live or actually confirm that the west doesn't even care about video footage, showing that actual withdraw. joe biden is still harping on this invasion hysteria that's been plaguing the west over the past several months. we are ready with
3:03 am
diplomacy to be engaging diplomacy with russia and our allies and partners to improve stability security in europe as a whole. and we are ready to respond decisively to rush an attack on ukraine. just still very much a possibility. now, what kind of attack are we talking about here? nobody really knows, but biden is far from the only person who is still counting on the russian invasion even after moscow said that its withdrawing its troops the british tabloid. the sun said that an invasion was going to happen on february 16th at one a. m g, g m t, and that claim was sa rages, even the spokes person for the kremlin. dmitri pest golf jokingly remarked that ukrainians who actually believe that should set their alarms in anticipation, but obviously that time has passed, and all we can hear on the border between russia and ukraine right now is basically crickets. but still, it seems like these media outlets really love the hysteria, because the sun is still writing that the russia might invade the baltic states if
3:04 am
it's given the opportunity to attack ukraine self all the while. i mean this circus is going on in the west. it really looks crazy to people that are in the, in the east. is there a doctor in the house, a specialist and hallucinating disorders? it looks like political therapy will not be sufficient secure scam mongers of the hung over upcoming weekend. i have a small request for the us and british this information media bloomberg, the new york times the sun and so on. and now it's to schedule a bow invasions for the year ahead place. i want to plan my holidays. thought i was, you know, it's one thing for politicians on the media to, to play the games of brinkman ship. but what about the every day joe? like you or me, for example. and if you will, for me, i'm a take us to ukraine, how the people that ferris made all this rhetoric contention. right? that's a good question. you think that this hysteria, media hysteria, campaign would be aimed at russia, but it doesn't really affect moscow all that much should see ordinary ukrainian people who have been living through conflict a, drawn out conflict in boston,
3:05 am
just one piece that are being effected here. i mean, this sort of media campaign is created hysteria throughout ukraine. there are people organizing militias training for an alleged russian invasion that has failed to play out. and you know, it makes it seem like the western powers that have been time and time again saying that they're trying to defend this country are actually destabilizing it. when in fact we have been observing a unique situation where the west, the united states in london, danco sex and you were trying to do each other. and in doing so undermined their own brainchild, which is the new cranium government within the space of a month or 6 weeks. so after months of the western media and politicians accusing russia of planning to invade ukraine, specifically because they had troops near the border between ukraine and russia. you think that the withdrawal of those troops would calm people down, but unfortunately, it looks like that situation is now playing out out his total quarter. thank you.
3:06 am
well, and the russian drills in crimea have also now finished with troops. they're heading back to that permanent basis becomes a day off. the units of the southern and western military districts began pulling back from russia western border where the exercises were also being held earlier. here at t, we spoke to the executive director of 21st century wyatt. dot com. he told us that this invasion hysteria is actually a western p r. stunt in the last 72 hours, they've gone absolutely crazy. and the western media saying russia will invade on wednesday, they had the specific date in mind. and then they would magically claim victory that they was say, we stood resolute against vladimir putin and his aggression. and we came out victorious in the end. that's the narrative that will be sold to in the west. but this, at the end of the day, looks like a giant p r. stunt by washington, and a nato, a nato, p. r stunt as well to create a situation and artificial situation and then take credit with some sort of virtual victory n. t of should have good bilateral relations and negotiations with moscow. but
3:07 am
there's a lot of pressure on present. zalinski, the united states, the european powers, nato, will do everything in their power to keep that from happening. they do not want to have to see any bilateral relations are healthy anyway, between moscow and kiya. but it's not your ukraine's border with russia that's driving speculation in poland. for example, there, it's frontier with ukraine. u. s. black hole chopper was picking up some mystery passengers. all happened in the middle of the night. you can read about that right now. and on c dot com and with the whole war hysteria refusing to simmer down energy prices. well, that going through the roof. germans have been particularly hit hot here at the latest market data suggesting they pay almost 3 times more for electricity than that of the global average. also driving up the bills are high energy taxes and
3:08 am
berlin's pushed to switch to that have green alternatives. now electricity shortages even lead one german municipality to warn of a possible to week outage. the local authorities went so far as to hand out brochures with tips on how to get through it, all told residents to stalk up on drinking water canned food and medicines, plus candles for light and wood to burn to keep yourself warm, where his want some of the locals told us about it. as ovens, it winds up with our politicians continue to act like they do in their foreign policy with russia and other countries. blackouts may happen. i think we are badly prepared. there are no facilities for emergency power call list as it is so hot, it is hard and crucial about the price of petrol and transport. there definitely needs to be more support. just one percent. germany's energy policy is 100. the reason why the probability of a black out is increasing. everything that's happening right now is a disaster, more sticks on the data. and the problem is politicians are afraid of not being
3:09 am
late. so if they do something wrong, everyone wants electricity, but nobody wants a wind turbine in front of the house. and when the last nuclear power plants scheduled to be shut down, the futures looking bleak. meanwhile, germany's minister of economic affairs on climate action has rejected public calls to reduce the taxes on electricity and did over v a t on energy r robert hop back argue such a move would only fuel inflation. well, all prices are also a record highs are things in large part of the tensions over ukraine. the brent crude oil price jumped above $95.00 a barrel for the 1st time since 2014. and we spoke with karen can, i saw the former austrian foreign minister, she says that oil and gas supply disruption and the ongoing tensions could be, quote, catastrophic for germany. it's to haven't been this supply contracts, i'm guessing the energy bill for the average household and companies will be even higher than the already in germany. germany is very much dependent on russian. not
3:10 am
only guess supplies just more than 34 percent. it's also all about oil, and it's all about polish from a german when it's fine, i would say the shoots, everything in order to, to keep the oil gas and coal flow. on the other hand, from a russian vantage point. and given this tremendous stalemate, this i'm believable, waited the whole go see of not string to is handled. if there is too much of a strain on the russian patients on the patients all together did to companies in both . i would not exclude debts that will be a major shoot. canada's prime minister is really starting to feel the heat. it's off the m p 's rounded on him, for triggering never before used emergency powers to deal with an ongoing protest
3:11 am
by truck drivers against vaccine mandates. the leader of the opposition told him it would have been better perhaps if you just stated as cottage, where he was accused of fleeing to when the protest 1st became an issue. isn't it true that the prime minister's actions could serve to actually make things worse? and not make things better, keeping canadians safe, protecting their communities and neighborhoods, and ensuring jobs and our economy. this is about the prime minister's illogical attachment to keeping coven restrictions and mandate. 63 percent of canadians want their restrictions and mandates to. and conservatives presented emotion yesterday. asking simply for a plan, but the prime minister is in denial and is ignoring the science. he might as well be back at the cottage because he's doing nothing productive or constructive to help this situation. the emergencies act is supposed to be applied only in the event of a national crisis and gives the government extra powers for 30 days,
3:12 am
including the ability to freeze bank accounts. but it's not meant to be used however, against peaceful demonstrators which the truckers have been though they are accused of causing disruption. or we heard from one of the drives, an ottawa who serves the emergency powers could easily be abused. politicians understand that if they use this drastic measure that it can be abused and that's exactly what we're seeing today. we're not at war anybody. nobody's dying, nobody's getting kidnapped. but this federal government is trying to save face from a politician named justin trudeau was trying to save his political career. and it's absolutely wrong. he needs to be held accountable. and citizens need to know that he is violating the canadian charter of rights. one person should not have the power to initiate such a drastic measure by himself. this should be a unanimous 100 percent agreement of all premieres across the country when there's a split and you have members of your own liberal party. speaking up against this
3:13 am
action of imposing the federal emergency act, it shows division shows that there is no support. when he got in was 32 percent of canadian votes, the lowest in canadian history. and now those polls show that that is slipped only 16 percent. so this is all about justin trudeau trying to save his political career, trying to save face and play like a rock star on the world stage as wrong support has off the truck as a so called freedom convoy, remain calm, count on parliament hill. that's right there in the countries capital and the atmosphere does remain rather festive. the protests began over 2 weeks ago when the government made jobs compulsory for truckers, wilkin cross board over all the same. most canadian truck is all vax, approximately 85 percent. as we understand not just intruder has defended the emergencies act on his r copay restrictions. so our panel of guests are debated whether any rights are currently being breached. you cannot assert to stand for freedom while you simultaneously or press the freedom of anyone else. and this has been an ongoing
3:14 am
issue with justin trio and canada. i mean, ever since he, jackie, he's been nothing but hypocritical, and the air of hypocrisy has to come to an end. and i'm very proud to say the canadians across the country are not having it. they're going to stand up against us. it's a little bit of a critical if you ask me for the media and the no government to act. now as if it's truckers who are causing all of this havoc, you cannot say that the restriction of movement and the destruction of the economy is necessary to protect public health for 2 years. but then all of a sudden when canadians are taking it upon themselves to stand up for their liberties. now it's too far and how dare you interact with people's abilities to load their day to day lives. i don't buy it and i think most of the canadian public doesn't either. well, it's about the same attitude with many people here in europe, even those who are action entered. but i'll fed up with the lack of liberties that of the political establishment as imposed. busy on the french, all the germans on every country in europe, the canadian civil liberties association claims just and trudeau has not met the
3:15 am
legal bar for declaring an emergency. he has to exhaust all legal options. first on save up, the move is going to harm democracy. could go beyond that, could cause really long term harm here. now adjusted trudeau, enacting these emergencies act. i think the government has just gone one step further in saying that i'm, you know, we're sorry, but the civil liberties you thought you enjoyed as canadians are actually only subject to our wimps. and i just hope that it doesn't get to a point where things actually do become violent because of the actions of the federal government. because you know these protestors, they do not. they do not want conflict in that way. but when you take away, i guess people's right to peacefully protest and when you even threatened to remove their children from them, obviously things are going to rise in as in attentions and escalation. the freedom convoys gone truly global on monday. as you are talking about, we saw thousands of people to send them brussels from across the u. you, do you think this is making governments think twice about relentless coven restrictions? or is it making them double clumped down?
3:16 am
and saying, we've got the power, you got to listen to us people not old and understood the lesson. i'm sure of that . you know, in most countries in europe now, governments try all, are really ready to stop measures to take them down. now's the time full of polymers, everywhere in europe, to really in to be restrictions of liberty. and i don't think any government in europe would dare try to go for any. well, it's good to have you with us for this wednesday program live from moscow, roughly halfway through the chart right now and still to come. we are traveling to russia's cole, this region to explore its ice cup a natural one does, but also the darker side of its history. we're back in just about ah, hello, driven by a dreamer shaped bank for some of those with
3:17 am
3:18 am
. so thanks so much for joining us today. here on our t international. let's shift gears to the u. k. now, where the parents of a 6 year old boy are being warned by his school that they and that child may be trans phobic. the christian couple had earlier complained after he came home, confused about a male classmate wearing a dress. so a correspondent shot here it was doctor picks up the store in the age of non binary and gender fluidity. people are embracing, whoever they want to be. one school in england is taking things very seriously. a 6 year old boy parents who will invest on may the transpose it off. he was confused by a boy wearing a dress. parents were granted the right legal challenge against the department for education decision to shut inclusive guidelines to safe schools. and we already
3:19 am
shocked by the fact that a charger said that that they want to be transitioned from a boy to go by just announcing it in a circle time to children and who are 6 and then it was just endorse next afterwards without any consultation with parents without the proper protocol, children thinking a simple way, i'll see they see girls have a different genitalia to what boys have katie, there is a distinct difference. and that's really the kind of conversation actually, i don't think his parents, we should really be needing to have say, 445 picture. or that should just be children. many parents with kids experiencing gender dysphoria, encourage the kids to express themselves, just fine. voices that disagree with these parents also think that they're being discriminated against and say earlier, sued the government of a transgender guidelines given to the school. we are just, we just really hopeful that there will be success in the course and that the
3:20 am
guidelines from the government will be very clear about how they can support these children who genuinely gen 4. yes. and that it will no longer be promoted. yeah, i mean, what we need to remember here is that we submitted a 500 page report page report. the cool, and this was from the top scientists and the chronologist and psychologist who were giving great warnings. ready of what would happen if, you know, we continue to do this sort of thing in schools. yesterday i had an email from someone who said that they were less being so nice to see everyone come together the whole l g b t community. so say they're all signing together, fighting against if you like, people like us. and, and this lady was where he talked to said, well, shit or molest me, but i hard time with you and i don't want,
3:21 am
i don't want to see this kind of being pushed on children, but the department of education says in 370 is key. we recognize that issues relating to gender identity can be complex and sensitive schools, a best place to work with parents, pupils and public services to decide what is best for individual children and what is best for all others in the school. this story is part of the water trends, eradicating gender bias in schools. with every new academic year. more and more students are asking to be called by a different name or a different pronoun. recently, a training session funded by the national education union advice schools to drop mr . and mrs. on refer to staff with jones, a neutral term like teacher and well equipped fraternities is the message, this is no way to go. as many say this is going to fall. it was propaganda for trans art service and completely against the department of education guidelines. but they were presenting it this fight. teachers will take what this woman says as
3:22 am
fights because the training was organized by the national education union. and they're not going to question the union. there is a change. what it was 4 years ago seem to me, was very hostile. people are very hostile, but people are beginning to understand what this really is all about. and it's, it's basically a cult to war. i just for a moment here, when you let us step away from the main top news stories here and i will travel to russia's coldest region of the kuta republic. it's where our teas constantino. ross coff has been putting himself to the test and cravings, him really wicked temperatures. and now in the 2nd part of his exclusive report, he's exploring the permafrost and travels on. i see rose to explore the regions history, some of which is pretty disturbing. the keep in mind they'll be to further installments over the next 2 days. 16 o'clock in the morning, minus 40 degrees celsius and mice 40 fahrenheit, and we're sitting out into the frozen wilderness upside beer. luckily,
3:23 am
i'm in my new shoes. this is by the way, are transferred for the next 24 hours saw this might look like a regular car, but believe me, this was significantly modified to take on the harsh environment whereabout a meet. we need to cover almost 8000 kilometers from the city of u booth to a tiny village called tom tor. the distance isn't that large by local standards, since we're driving through russia's biggest region. it's the size of an entire country such as india or argentina. in fact, you could fit 5 states the size of taxes, cynthia katia, you can actually get to where we go if i played a summer time. but in the winter they hold ever travel altogether because driving becomes easier and it's also much cheaper. unlike in the summer time when ah, the permafrost thaws rose, now are dry and firm and the weather like this river that can't be crossed during the summer months now become sturdy eyes,
3:24 am
you can just drive across. we're actually driving across one of the of rivers right now. we're actually driving on the ice is frozen river is so big and the traffic across it is so heavy. it becomes a full fledged highway with road signs and multiple lanes every winter. on the other side of the river, we encounter any heard of wild horses casually crossing the road. an initial sign that we're moving away from civilization. the views were see along the way are breathtaking. yet there is something terribly haunting about this highway which was used to connect dialogue. prison camps in the soviet union around the 90 thirty's, came to be known as the road of bones. prison has filled his throat and for the most part it was manual labor is immoral. it will construct seen to read. oh yeah. round with it. it took lots of, of many died from the debilitating in the summer of the uh, from the cold in the winter or from tom got about it even to seize prisoners for
3:25 am
less to divert side and some ways in florida and the roads go this route to american is both beautiful and treacherous, but most of the time you're completely alone on the road. there's no mobile reception and if something happens help, i'd never come. in 2020, it was a driver. he died. you run out of fuel and his car broke down. so the road of bones still claimed the lives of those who, under estimate danger, drivers are always on the alert here, even when they go into roadside diner, they leave their cars running so the engine doesn't freeze and they never miss a gas station, even if their fuel tank is far from empty here. if you run out of gas or your car stalls, it could be a death sentence. the we wasn't, we keep everything we need in the car. like water man tools will goes. for example,
3:26 am
i have a portable gas burner, just in case my ca stolz, i can set it up and use it as a stove. so you need to be prepared for a scenario where you may have to spend 20 for hours in the cold. maybe even more yes, of course. with some even carry satellite phones with the car we hired for the trip was nothing like it used to be when it came off the assembly line. the outer cover the engine with a warm blanket put an additional heater inside greenforest, every window with an extra layer of glass and sealed them shot versus double glass. we've moved, we put some c living with that a 2nd layer of glass on it will move. both to so you can't a brand new hard car driving it in today won't work if know it won't work.
3:27 am
but of course there is no such thing as 100 percent protection on the road of bones . this mini van, which carries passengers between you can only mac on got a flat tire. their electric pump didn't work in the cold. so the driver was more than happy to use. now, worse among the passengers who took advantage of the stop and gazed at the stunning views around us, were a couple of international tourists. if the my name is braden, i'm from way north minnesota from the united states, heading out towards the on the phone. we just actually pulled over. this is our 3rd time popping your tires on the road. a bunker, the unspoken agreement is that if someone else is a problem, you stop and help them. it turned out those 2 weren't the only foreigners would made in my neck on which is becoming increasingly popular among adventures. seeking tourists. we like going to places like afghanistan through don syria, and of course, called us and have it in place on the planet. that's right on the list. the last leg of our journey turned out to be the most difficult. it was dark and we hadn't seen a single uncommon car for hours. our driver was edging and stopped to check on the
3:28 am
vehicle every time and dumped over a piece of gravel. for there was a knocking sound in the engine. a blast. we've reached the coldest place on earth. look at that food. yeah, last rice for the deep freeze, there will be 2 more reports from konstantin over the next 2 days will. that is if he hasn't turned into a human icicle by that point, but i'll keep your eyes open back soon with for months the u. s. and the u. k. of warrens and russia may invade ukraine, and yet there has been no invasion for their part. the russians submitted abundantly clear. europe's current security arrangement is untenable. bay saxon
3:29 am
powers, talk of war. russia talks about secured financial from i'm john did a little about money laundering 1st. it is cash to 3 different. oh good. this is a good start. well, we have our 3 banks all set up here. maybe something in europe, something in america, something overseas in the cayman islands, you know, all these banks are complicit in the procedure. we just have to give them a call and say, hey, i'm ready to do some serious my laundry. ok, let's see how we did. well, we've got a nice luxury watch for max and for stacy. oh, beautiful jewelry. and how about ha ha. luxury automobile again for mag, you know, it, money laundering is highly legal. don't be much ah,
3:30 am
this is room by doing visits show you can't afford to miss. i'm ready to love it and i, birds were in washington. here's the we have coming up. as the truck approach to continue in canada, the nation's prime minister is invoking emergency power to deal with the gatherings . meanwhile, withdraw atlantic the attempting trucker protest has fallen flat. later on, we'll discuss the state of the movement. then if you notice that housing prices have skyrocketed over the last year, well you're not alone. we'll discuss the surging prices and some of the largest markets in the world. we have a lot to cover, so let's get started. and we leave the program with the latest on the protest, truckers and canada who are opposed to vaccine and mask mandates. caney and prime minister just intrude. oh has taken an unprecedented step in order to stop.
