ah, ah, with ah, russia said sort of taking control of money for $50.00 whole after a month of intensive buy thing. though bottles with ukranian forces are still ongoing. what country is the main instigator of this crisis? everyone knows china lashes out that the american methods in the war claiming it was the instigator, the conflict it comes with. china will hold. trade talks with russia, despite all the pressure on asian countries by the west. we pull the issues to i guess there's this desire to malign are china, china closes sanctions of all forms. it poses threats of sanctions and it supports

the position i trial that we have fundamentally believe doing a multi major while we have leading the multi word that's been the raja india. historically, you lead to scarf, it rushes demand to pay for its energy and ruble. as a g 7 summit takes place in brussels. meanwhile, the rubel begins to call back some of what is lost in the crisis. and the u. k is left red faced and demanding. youtube removes a video of a phone call, in which the british defense minister talks with bush and pranksters and gives them crucial information from the conversation. it became clear that you played on this daily naval fleet for the black sea. ah. from moscow to the world,

this is asi international. my name is peter scott and wherever you joining us from, welcome to the program. as being claimed, the administration building of the so then ukrainian city of murray, you, paul, is now under the control of the russian military. and his war rages on in ukraine. china has put the blame on the us, claiming that washington fees to shift responsibility for it. factions on sort of. meanwhile, european commission chief us lavonne de lion says the block won't let russia circumvent sanctions. and use energy supplies as an instrument of blackmail. like, comes after moscow announced that quotes on friendly nations would have to pay for gas in rubles where the western sanctions on russia already putting global food supply chains and the pressure french president, manuel mac ron has found the alarm over the possibility of an unprecedented food crisis, well, let's start the program and break down. what's happening on the ground in ukraine is being claimed. russian forces have taken control of the city hall in mario pl.

now it's just a one month variance and fighting. and you can see now on your screen, some of the latest footage from the city, showing that many of the residential buildings have been completely destroyed. locals claim the infamous, as all the battalion and ukrainian forces have been putting civilians at risk targeting the building. in this video, the severe fighting has left many locals caught in the crossfire on thursday. here, officials reported they have evacuated more than 2000 mo you poorly residents. ukrainian authorities of also accused moscow of illegally deporting around $15000.00 of the cities residents to russia. with the humanitarian situation in the city, dyer, russia says it starts at distributing aid. meanwhile shelling was heard in the northern parts of ukraine's 2nd largest city hall cove. on thursday, the instant left at least 6 civilians dead and more than a dozen wounded with a car part of

a local shopping mall. that's according to local authorities. thick smoke was seen billowing from residential neighborhoods as well. here has blamed russia, but moscow hasn't yet commented on the incident. and over in the done yet republic, local authorities say almost every building has been destroyed or damaged in the city of all nevada. although rebuilding work has already begun, local hospital employees earlier claimed ukrainian militias used their hospital to fire from and the 6 civilians died of the shelling. they also say over 300 people who are hiding inside were used effectively as human shields. but as michelle, lisa thought they were firing from the 2nd and 3rd floors. we were hiding in the basement. there were more than 300 people there. all the soldiers knew that we were there, though. i don't know. maybe they were using us as a human shield goes along. they did not explain anything. just said that they were told to stay in our hospital was butcher. we called for the troops to leave the hospital territory, told them not to use it as a battlefield,

but they refused. but we try to rebuild the hospital and we are getting a lot of help. we're so thankful for to people donate blood, but volunteers help us to fix windows, which cellophane doesn't know, hopefully we'll get electricity back soon. and finally, we'll be able to work while the conflicts has been raging in the dawn bus region for the past 8 years. western journalists have been notable for their absence, both after one month, the full scale war in ukraine. a number of reporters have since arrived and done yet, luc guns republics to cover the situation there are corresponded for among costs of spoke to canadian journalist of a bartlet explained the reluctance of many to cover the conflict from the ground before eve is just so one of so many foreign journalists who are arrived here in the dentist to try and see what is actually happening here. so i have um, so oh, is this your 1st time here? imagine this. so you've been here several times once before in 2019. ah,

one more time in your left cotton areas, north of there, i've been working here for about 8 years, and i very rare to saw any western journalists here a why do you think that is and what is your opinion of impression of from coming here now? in twenty's, when is it? i think the reason that ye saw very few western journalist is because they were all reporting them from the ukraine side from in care of and elsewhere or abroad. not even bothering to come to the region at the agenda of most corporate media journalists is to come here already with an idea in mind. take if you sound bites, get some shot, especially if there's destruction that fits their narrative very well, and never give any context there. and i think to showing them without any sort of white helmets type theatrics and stage scenes showing, ah, yes, showing this kind of scene, but then interviewing people to give context as to why it's like this. i showing the people that we saw in the, the, that a town square who were there to receive aid, to hear from them what their lives were like was their life really wonderful and

democratic and free and of the ukrainian forces. as we're being told in western media, the problem is that, you know, there's a media conglomerate to that, that all have the same message and the same messages. ukraine is, like i just said, democratic and bringing freedom to the people. russia is bad and of course of people here that just want to be, you know, free of the ukrainian and nazi rule and nipped their lives and speak their language, which happens to be russian, you know, ukrainian. so no western media will vilify them an an interview to r t c, and we are novice, the, the former russian presidents and current deputy chairman of the security council. dmitri madrid. he said he's normal for people to criticize whether their governments had made bad decisions as this part of democracy boats. when answering a question from the a nova, see, he said many people in russia still support the military offensive against ukraine? the full interview will be ad tomorrow, but have a quick preview. should say, so do you think the dance you have remained in russian society in russia as

a whole, support the operation ukraine. now, occasionally, of course they do, and this is not my opinion. all the data is made public and no matter what are spiteful, critics say, or write this support is obviously, according to the latest surveys, 3 quarters of the country's population support the conduct of the operation. if we talk about the rating of the highest official, that is the president of our country than this rating is even higher. this, in fact, is the support. i'm not talking about a demonstration of this kind of unity. like, for example, we had recently in lou sneaky, you say this is worth a loss and it shows how people perceive the problems that our country is facing. i will say it again. he may be dissatisfied with certain decisions of the authorities . it is normal to criticize the authorities. this is part of democracy, but he is such a difficult situation is impossible to pursue an anti state line because this is a betrayal and in our country. unfortunately, such things happened in the history of our country. and in a relatively recent period, when people went abroad and began to criticize their state, you know,

there is also a cultural code by the way, which is shed in almost all countries. you can criticize anything inside the country. but if you went abroad, then it's not right to scold your country. you can criticize the authorities annual country, but not in the situation of wolf or an operation that is on the way. because there are people who are fighting with weapons in the hands for your country, for your future all fatherland, and thus you oppose yourself to these people who risk their heads, in fact, lay down their lives for it. well, this is how i feel about it. ah, the instigator of the crisis that south china has labeled the us blaming the west for the war in ukraine to me on the top up trying his actions clearly contrast the u. s. method to artificially create a crisis to shift responsibility and to make profit from it. however, what country is the main instigator of this crisis?

everyone knows. but despite the anger from the west, the position of many asian countries towards russia remains unchanged. the chinese foreign minister sets a conduct trade talks with russia in india, and it comes as pressure grows on new delhi to sanction moscow over the conflict which the indian prime minister render mowdy has so far, refused to do all these. donal call to discuss the topic with my colleague, you know, neil basically this chinese diplomatic tour is taking place on the backdrop of a massive pressure campaigned by washington. actually, it's basically intended to isolate russia from countries that are trying to maintain good relations with both sides of the ukraine conflict and basically stay neutral as for what we can expect from this upcoming meeting, we can look at one of the main topics that were discussed between china and pakistan, just re, just recently, that's the heretic effects that these anti russian sanctions are having on the world economy. let's not forget that both phasing and new delhi are facing pressure

by the united states by washington for publicly coming out against the sanctions. india, for its part, is one of the world's largest importers of russian military technology. and washington is trying to pressure the country to just entirely switch over to american weapons. another thing that the india recently did was that it bought around 3000000 barrels of discounted russian crude oil. that's another thing that washington was very upset about in terms of china. it reacted very negatively when the u. s. called for russia to be excluded from the g 20 as it was with the g a. so let's take a listen to what both washington and beijing had to say about that. on the question of the g 20, i will just say this. we believe that it cannot be business as usual for russia in international institutions and in the international communities which if i share the g. 20 is a major platform for international economic cooperation with the participation of major economies in the world. russia is an important member and no member has the

right to remove other countries as a member of asian also stood by russia when it tried to pass a un security council draft resolution that all of the other members of the security council actually abstained from. so another important point we have to talk about also is that the 2022 meeting of bricks countries is set to come up very soon. and it's widely expected to take place in china. so, while washington attempts to isolate russia from all of these bricks countries, it's actually starting to look like these threats and demands are actually turning these countries against the united states. so there is a very big possibility that washington's pressure campaign is going to end up backfiring. well, earlier we asked analysts in both countries about the exactly how significant those talks between china and india could be regarding the current situation ukraine. it seems to be a major crisis is in boarding all the partners, all the countries for asia and europe and the u. s. is open just docs open to

dialogue. and india is also a started at the moment in gabby, not take anything lying down as a lead editorial in china daily today. titled india not obliged to scratch us back, strongly supporting india's choice to remain neutral and maintain ties with russia . i'm hopeful that this meeting for shadow is a significant warming of relations between the 2 countries. as it's clear, they have a lot more in common than not, and perhaps points to a new era of friendly relations that will deeply unsettle washington's so called private asia. india has always maintained strategic independence between on the back. no, it has and india is going to place you with that approach because that's been the brought your india historically. and i don't see any time changing on

doctrine because india would like to retain that independence because we, how fundamentally believed in a month later was we have no multi one word. china, hoses, sanctions of all forms. it poses threats of sanctions and it supports a position on a tragedy. now that we have this conflict in ukraine, there's this desire to know, malign china, to associate it with a conflict in some sense. why is the us trying to impose us on, on china and this? i think there are, there are 3 possibilities. the 1st is a few, as i did fears of sanctions, regime won't work without china's compliance or 2nd. it wants to expose china to even greater inflationary pressures if china doesn't imply and they're like damage china's economy. and 3rd, if china doesn't comply, then again, it wants to add this to this course. it's already got in place of maligning china. essentially, blaming the war on china and somewhere. so now that the u. s. has the stabilized

ukraine and fed this conflict, the us expects china to abandon their strategic self interest for fuels era. and neither prime minister modi nor president shipping or fools you leaders condemned moscow's demand at the g 7 summit after president putin ordered that, quote, on friendly countries use the russian currency to pay for their gas imports. this would be a unilateral decision and a clear breach of contract and it would be an attempt to circumvent the sanctions. we will not allow our sanctions to be circumvented. the time when energy could be used to blackmail us is over. this is basically a breach of contract. this is important to understand. i don't think anybody in europe really knows how rubles look like. nobody will pay in rubles. the decision to switch to, rubles, came in response to the sanctions imposed against russia. it means countries will

have to sell their currencies and get roubles on the russian market to buy gas and oil. experts still don't expect the moves have any impacts on energy prices. well, after the decision, the rubel has strengthened against the dollar while you gas prices have spite more than 25 percent with global oil costs increasing, as well as the result of unseat russia, sanctions economist and ceo of russian investment companies. sputnik, alexander, lot of things the president's decision will we can both the euro on the european markets stay is a union of the countries of the total economic war against jason was no worse than during the cold war center. there is a net or call, want to go to banks on the bottom. so guess wrong. some companies have no problems going doors under euros intervals. this is some weakness

of euro, i guess door will continue on them in or into national threat. and settlement amongst expect, huge problem. well, for nick on europe couldn't get to know that is no, i didn't. what sort of crisis we will see. new records will receive some of those shortage on the market. because in g m in economy affects negative on the new project in oil. and guess while the west is targeting russia with crippling sanctions over the conflict. and ukraine is set to land countries in the middle east and africa with some major humanitarian difficulties. russia and ukraine

contributes to more than half of all wheat and corn exports to those regions, and french presidents, manuel macro, and said the world community is on the verge of an unprecedented few crisis because of the conflicts. new some autonomy settles, includes getting close to, to an unprecedented food crisis because the middle east and north africa dependent on feeding their population with what's being produced in russia and ukraine, populace. you africa. and the middle east is a result to having difficulties buying, wheat, and serials. some of those countries are 80 percent dependent on russia policy. golly, the charity oxfam has wandered food affordability is going to become a huge problem. indeed escalation, ukraine crisis has been a big blow to the east africa. that price is at the moment it has sent prices. so keep commodities such as a laser oil rocketing. and we do know, for example, that east africa inputs 90 percent of the suite from ukraine and russia. so we

prices rising explanation. it's really impacting, especially the poorest and most vulnerable who are struggling with reporting that they are challenges with their global system. so at the moment, one of the things we are highlighting is the fact that i believe is the biggest challenge for many people in the region. and so people, especially from low income countries, cannot afford the prices for example of such as brent you know, and which made from a sense of stress. especially because people's coping because i've been straight to gaming and some are having to resort to skipping meals or buying food on created to be able to feed their children or having to you know, marry off their young daughters as they look for resources to pay for food and medicine. and while europe is trying to put pressure on russia,

ukraine's president followed him is zalinski, is doing the same to nato states asking for more military aid, including tanks and aircraft. however, the u. k. p. m, boris johnson, said zalinski last request are providing ukraine with one percent of nato's weapons would be difficult to accomplish logistically. but despite the reticence, ukraine is still being supported by the west, economically and politically. we discussed the landscape moves with fair me funny how your day, a leading member of the ruling all progressive congress party in nigeria. lensky, going to all the parliaments of the west and having audience with them. and there cheering him on the encouraging and it's not their cities that have been but it's not their people that are being killed. it's not their soldiers that are in the field. he wants to be the hero. but in fact, he's a very, very bad man. he's a man that does not care about the consequences of what he's doing about the suffering that is people are undergoing and i still believe people. this could have

been avoided, but he was pushed into it and he felt great. and now he's already so you need a new leadership, they need an honest, decent leadership, but a pragmatic that are ready to ensure that they guarantee the neutrality of your grade. they give the people of eastern ukraine right to determine their future where they want to be an independent state, or they want to be part of russia. they leave crimea a seat to russia. i live there undertaking to the entire world that they will never join neutral and they will never be parts of europe. nato itself is currently holding an extraordinary summit of the situation in ukraine. with his lead is making a joint statement condemning russia and warning of the consequences of using chemical or biological weapons. joe biden did the same, however, he wouldn't be forced on what exactly any response would be. what the us or nato respond with military action. if he did use chemical weapons, we would respond, we will respond if you use it, nature the response to depend on the nature of the use. the same time,

washington itself is on the fire over weapons of mass destruction. after the russian defense ministry claimed it had obtained data on a legit of biological weapons developments in ukraine with the latest revelations linking joe biden, son hunter. so these are legit bio labs news just a little the russian defense ministry continues to analyze documents revealing the military biological activities of the pentagon in ukraine where the incoming materials allow us to trace the scheme of interaction between u. s. authorities with ukranian biological objects, attention can be drawn to the involvement in the financing of these activities of structures close to the current government of the united states. in particular, the investment fund, rosemont seneca, which is headed by hunter biden. rosemont seneca partners is the firm tied to hunter by the u. s. president san and the russian defense ministry is listing a financial entities that are involved in these bio labs and ukraine. now they also listed george soros is open society institute and open society foundations,

which are also involved with them and as well as the ministry of defense of ukraine and the ministry of health of ukraine and the u. s. department of threat reduction . all of them seem to be tied in with these bio labs and it appears that there, that rosemont seneca partner is the reason that they would be involved. ready because they have a relationship with meta by ota and blacken beach, which are main suppliers of pentagon bio lab materials. now our moscow is also coming forward and saying that it appears these bio labs are connected with institutions and research organizations that are related to nuclear missiles. this is what was sat, must have a program with which the scale of the program is impressive. in addition to the military, that the u. s. agencies for international development, the george soros foundation, and the center for disease prevention control are directly involved in its implementation. no scientific supervision is carried out by leading research

organizations, including the los alamos national laboratory, which develop nuclear weapons is part of the manhattan project. all these activities are carried out under the full control of the pentagon. now the over 30 bio labs are accused by russia of being involved in weapons development and trying to without biological weapons. now, the usa denies this and insist they are simply research facilities. and we did here acknowledgement of these facilities existence from us under secretary victoria new let ukraine has a biological research facilities. we are working with the ukrainians on how they can prevent any of those research materials from falling into the hands of russian forces should they approach the fact that she expressed this concern about their possibly getting into the hands of russian

forces. does suggest that these are pathogens that can easily be weaponized and it does raise the fundamental question that was raised earlier. why is the defense department funding them? and why do they even exist in ukraine that comes under the auspices of the defense threat production agency in the department of defense? i know it d t, what we call d t s a i. i was affiliated with it at one point during my defense department career, that it was designed to do as an entity was to oversee the de nuclear zation and adherence to treaty obligations against the spread of nuclear weapons and biological and chemical biological weapons. so for d t a say to be involved in something like this is rather incredible, in my opinion. while over in the u. k,

the defense secretary has demanded youtube take down a video of himself being caught out by a hoax. coal. ben wallace was phoned by 2 russian pranksters, one of whom posed as ukraine's prime minister. a wide range of topics were discussed, including ukraine, potentially launching a nuclear arms program. we would like to continue the nuclear program in order to protect ourselves from russia. it's a difficult question, but with think to started ok, do you think? i mean, i think more than being neutral, russia would really have that for sure where we are know that we know this, of course, but it's the one of the question that we're interested. but if you could help us in this regard, it would be really, really important. ok, well i missed prime minister on all those big questions. i think there was

a question that i need to speak to my prime minister that the principal is we will support ukraine as our friend in the choices you make. part of that video was censored by the pranksters themselves, as they say ben wallace gave away information that will compromise britain's national security and respond studies. g says the entire video is the rest of the country's security, and it believes that russian state actors were responsible for the prank. that claim was directly rejected by the committee g o. information revealed by the defense secrecy included plans to move you case ships closer to ukraine. we or we will go into the black sea. i think we are due to go soon in the black. see how close we go to ukrainian waters where the russians currently have a blockade. i think we will be open to discussions about looking at that. i think the whole questions with the prime minister, including the security dialogue security guarantee. we are happy to look at all of

them with you. so we're not going to rule anything out. we spoke to one of those pranksters, alexei star of who's also known as lexus. and he's just concerned that such a high ranking person can be contacted so easily. some my friends from, from the u. k, they told us to say he could not be in person who is responsible for the national security of such a great country, like the u. k. and the country with the nuclear weapon. and she's a responsible person for all all those areas. so, and if it's easy to reach came by just to private persons. so you could, you could imagine what would happen if some persons from intelligence try to wish him and to get all necessary information. so i think i could only advise to

be careful in such moments when they are let or they mentioned that this is kind of propaganda kind of thrashing propaganda. but we do not have his words, he's speech. so if it's a purpose, and so then it's propaganda or secretary was it? he's words, we didn't change anything while that's all for this our for the latest developments on the conflicts in ukraine had over to r t dot com and our social media pages. my name is peter scott and thank you for watching. ah, the law of unintended consequences is in play and in

a very big way the west attempt to seriously damage the russian economy through sanctions is very risky and dangerous, though is most enthusiastic. the sanction are beginning to understand the same sanctions will hurt their own economies and citizens in november, the 3rd 1945, just a month after the war ended, the u. s. joint chiefs of staff receive report number 3 to 9. select 20 targets to attack in the soviet union with nuclear bombs. the time was right. as the u. s. s. all was devastated by wall the it either states last about 400000 people had the brit sloss less than the americans did. and the soviets suffer 27000000 deaths

who.
