just a, with with the russian military opens a 3 day humanitarian car, a door for civilians in the style plant in mario. but we hear from those are documented from the facility, but the nightmare they've had europe and this lucas were so create. we have no words to express our gratitude, looking brief air, fresh air, or 2 months undefined. it was scary to go out by that time we were just hoping ukrainian journalist on government critic is arrested in spain. does he have seeks his extradition about this by his prior refugee status in the, in the blocks top?

do not use that for l. say's cutting gaff supplies from russia is out of the question that says the european union commission proposed as a new rod of sanctions or russian in the u. s. is expected to pass that bill which could leave opec members open to lawsuits. it was announced immediately after the head of the old cartel said there was no current possibility to replace russian oil. ah, one miller past 4 in the afternoon here in moscow this thursday may the 5th my names. you know, neil, welcome to the news roundup on our new humanitarian car doors has been allowed to open an allow civilians to leave the unsolved style state plant in maria pull. the russian military has also announced a 3 day pause in hostilities russian done yet. republic forces will cease all

military activity while the humanitarian roots are in operation. the troops also removed to a safe distance. earlier, more than a 100 local civilians left the plot. we heard from those evacuated to a ton and done yet about what they had to enter. it was very scary before we had 2 months under fire. it was scary to go out by that time we were just hoping any slightest opportunity. and you need to leave because the may not be another chance. so the decision was made right away. look, we're so grateful. we have no words to express our gratitude. my whole family is alive and the vile connections have already appeared here. so we'll really good news about a relatives looking brief air, fresh air. you can walk on the ground on the grass. it's a dungeon, they're almost like 3 flo was down below the irv. it was shaking. we were afraid that the ceiling would fall. but i think everyone is glad that everything is over.

silence has come. i walked with the kids to day when we entered ever so it was still snowing. and when we came out there we saw the grass. we walked around with the kids breathe fresh air. at least the children remembered what fresh air is like . attempts to evacuate civilians from the as of style factory had been made earlier . moscow said the temporary c slash were repeatedly violated by ukrainian forces. officials from the done yet people's republic also say key of use to cease fires to send weapons to soldiers in the plant. will rush in territory came under fire this morning with local authority, sing ukrainian forces shells a tide in the belgrade region. just the number of kilometers from the border. 5 houses were damaged with one entirely destroyed, no injuries were reported among the local power lines have also said to be damage vulgar odds. governor said all houses hit by shelling will be rebuilt,

ukrainian blogger, opposition activist. on the tale, shari has been arrested in spain, andras international notice. so the key of 6. his extradition, mister shari, is an investigative journalist who received political asylum in the e. u. in 2012, amid alleged persecution and claims of an attempt to the sauce nation, which kiev accuses him of faking. he is a prominent, critical lover, years lensky, other politicians, with almost 3000000 youtube subscribers on his journal. he's accused of treason by these lensky governments. this year, the party he funded was suspended along with other opposition parties. and in 2022 lithuania, an old sherry's refugee status. he f says he was arrested in cooperation with

ukrainian authorities. he's been placed under a travel barn on could face extradition. we've asked the spanish interior ministry for comment on that civil, an international law specialist, maria yar mush seized the possible expedition will put mister sherry in a precarious position. it shall ivy. will you sherry's persecuted for political reasons and that's the legal basis for interposed to refuse to issue a notice for him. nathaniel decision to lift his refugee status is paulette south and shows it's and willingness to openly go against ukraine authorities. and as a you countries, i mean what's happening in ukraine where the political opponents of the key of the gym are disappearing. i think he if won't provide a normal legal process for anatoly sherry, he will likely end up being tortured, almost unreal for him to get justice and to protect his life,

health and freedom. i'm not even talking about his reputation. that means in the event of extradition, the spanish court will basically send him to his death. now e, u foreign policy chief usurper l house claim, the closure of the russian gas top is not under discussion. the energy source on like oil will be impossible to replace. he said, june, she said early take the oil market is global and their alternative procure. and there may be moments of transition in some turbulence in prices, but there is no serious problem of saying, oh, if i run out of russian oil, i will raise the price a lot because they will not be oil make it. but this is not the case with oil, it with gas, it's a different problem. gas to begin with is not only an energy product that isn't. it is not only used to make kate nor gas is a raw material in the petrochemical industry. and the petrochemical industry in europe, and in particular, in germany ways

a lot. gas cannot be replaced by anything other than gas gas from russia or somewhere else, but it must be gas. and that is why we're especially careful about gas because their entire sectors of the european petrochemical industry that cannot function if it does not have gas. and that topic is not on the discussion at the moment studies . we have been discussing a lot this week and i was in latin america, but i was on the phone all the time and the discussions did not include gas and then the started. well, we'll delve into the ramifications of that statement in the coming hours with a corresponding to another guest, but just staying with the energy theme because the u. s. senate is expected to pass that bill that could leave opec members on their partners open to legal action that would allow the federal court to enforce judicial anti trust decisions against them . let's a break that down as quite dance at both opec members states and oil companies are currently protected by sovereign immunity laws. the billing question,

this apparently intended to protect us consumers and businesses from supply cuts and global oil price hikes by opec members. the proposed law comes and made growing tensions between washington and the oil cartel. members, after a peck refused to increase production in march and recently claimed there was put no spur capacity to replace sanctioned rushing oil supplies, as well as cross live now to professor edmond gharib expert on us middle east relations. pleasure to have you on the program today. sir, i have already claimed that this bill is a more punishing opec countries than protecting u. s. consumers. hope for is the accusation. well, clearly what's going on now is that some of several of the countries already made it clear that they do not support the position update

united states when it comes to imposing sanctions. also the abstract made it clear based today and i took countries such a saudi arabia, that they do not have the capacity to keep ability to increase the production of oil in a significant way. so that, that would dramatically f track and substitute for russian exports through to you and to other areas. i mean, this is an important message that, that's being sent, i think for a number of countries in the region that they want to maintain some distance. and some balance in terms of the relationship and also they are still where they want to implement the agreement that was reached between russia and opec, about oil prices,

about after the difficulties that emerged like couple of years ago. all right, very interesting. what then does this proposed law actually mean for opec on its partners in the overall sense? well, well, clearly, i mean, this is going to have a tremendous effect on. i mean, it could have, 1st of all, there is no doubt that it is able to fulfill its promises what the european commission president and, or why and wanted to block or ban all crude oil, basically within 6 months and then on basically for a ship from russia about a year, but the problem is that when, how to what extent are we likely to see support from all the members of the european union?

hungary, for example, i said that that needs more time to phase out the russian oil. and from that demand that requires 3 to 5 years and that that is not willing to support the sanctions right now on russia. the ban on russia also that have been reports and i don't know how accurate that is. and that's slovakia, hungary, of course, most of cyprus, greece are not ready to support the position of the u. commission president. and now if this is true, that's going to make it very difficult to implement that. but assuming it is implemented, there is no doubt that this will have a tremendous impact on russian economy rush, because it's going to deprive russia from the market, the european market. now, the russians have other markets that they are looking at. and that's what,

from what i understand president boynton has also asked russian oil officials to begin to reach out to other sources for especially in asia, india and china are likely to continue to buy or from russia and probably not likely to increase. perhaps the question is, some of this was going to be bought discounted or prices, so that will also have some impact on the russian economy. never the less russia because of the increase in oil prices and we've seen yesterday, the oil prices after the news about the oil band from and europe rose to about $210.00 a barrel. now, there are some experts who are saying this could reach something like $200.00 about, well, that also is likely to benefit russia if the price goes up,

even though the exports will decline. nevertheless, the price will make the difference. so it is a very fluid, very complicated situation. it's also going to have an impact on the economy, not only of europe, but even of the united states as a coin to that, because it tells me it's a big new one for washington as well. isn't it high, will this bill affect us all markets? well, that's clearly, i mean, we're going to see an in my one hand american oil. probably that would be more oil be sold outside the united states than before. nevertheless, it's not as easy as some people think. for example, trail oil. it's much more complicated even though it's not a problem. you can throw money at that's going to take time to go through to, to be able to, to increase effectively and lodged and bang and large the capacity of an export

of shale oil. so that means that it's going to be limited. and also it's beginning to affect prices, as we already have seen over the past month and, and i had said all prices are rising, this is going to have negative consequences on bad ministration. that's tracing a lot of difficulties with the mid term election coming up in november, especially because of the rise in inflation. the increasing rise from prices of food gas and other commodities, and a vision to that. you have the divisions in the united, the political divisions that exist between republicans and democrats and your of the rising crime rate as well as the rising illegal immigration. you have so that is likely also to be one of the consequences of the rising energy prices on the american market. it show a lot of a lot of different elements that player there isn't there. thanks so much for going

through all that with us. just time has beaten this, this. our professor edmond read us middle east relations expert life on our team. thank mozambie cows rule die. the possibility of giving up on coal mining in order to meet you in a mission goals by 2030. the government claims the global targets do not take into consideration realities in the african nation. not cool remains one of those on big main exports and at foreign currency sources. anti russian sanctions on limited supplies of alternative energy sources have cause cold prices to more than double since the beginning of the year. the on demand is on the rise since the outbreak of the conflict in ukraine across live now to lauren's k. freeman, political and economic analyst on african 1st good to have you on the program today . thanks so much for joining us. so you have to ruling out the possibility of

abandoning coal mining. does that mean the country has given up on the u. n. global energy transition goals? the african leaders are pushing back very hard on these un demands for the what they call climate change. and they don't give up entirely on the idea, because i don't think they can politically, when they're not going to go along with it. because it's actually very harsh, discriminatory policy against african, which is the company which has the largest number of people, poverty. and the greatest number of people without access to electricity by 6000000 . and therefore the governments are pushing back and do what is necessary to maintain their companies and i support them in this effort. you have at most,

i'm big as not only alone in raising concerns either about energy poverty among nations on the content you have been i jerry and vice president also recently speaking of co climate, just this for the content. so it's not in here, or there it seems to be spreading across africa. yes, i mean now we do have the vice president who has been out spoke, you know, recently nigeria, but actually president bihari when he spoke at the conference in glasgow, president the 70 program that has spoken out by the m g, a minister in south africa spoken now, the good what is being said is that the west financial institutions in western government, under the rubrics are global warming being man made from these gases. they're now dictating the african nations. you can use oil, gas, coal,

because that is bad for the environment as we dictated. even though we use these resources to develop our economy. and basically what you're saying is, and this is what is behind a good portion of the climate change, moving it's anti industrialization, the western financial institutions and government with you and the i math, they're saying we're not going to allow, we're going to cut off funding. so you can use your own natural resources to develop your own economy. and without energy, africa is in terrible shape. in fact, the lack of energy kills more people in africa than anything else. and therefore, it is discriminatory, immoral, and bordering on racism. not to allow african countries to human resources for the people can coal help. so growing demand for energy in africa. well, my view is that we have to go to next platform and which is nuclear energy fusion.

and hopefully we'll move ahead with fusion. south africa, the only country it has a new energy plan there about a dozen working on it are on various levels. and that's the platform we have to go to. however, in the transition to get there, we have to use every form of energy. we can, we have to use called necessary oil gas hydro, because these country, if you look at the amount of energy available in south africa, is news for over a 1000000000 people is about 800000 megawatts, which is left in most countries in europe. and they're all going to europe, and therefore we have to allow the african country and your leaders to use forms of energy. because without energy, the country will not develop. poverty won't, crease and gatorade will go off. and the goal is to get to a higher platform,

which would be new to efficient energy, which is very capable of supplying energy needs. can i just briefly profess to you some reports suggest most on big gas reserves? i have the potential of helping neighboring states meet their energy demands and bring billions and for investment into the country. why then, i don't know you've touched on it, but why then it was a big so reluctant to give up on coal. well, my understanding is that co by sell you call is actually generating revenue. and they said these are from countries have a right to use their resources for the benefit of the country. so they need a revenue stream. if they call a power is one that they can actually sell their product, they're going to be made and trying to clean coal. i don't think coal is the best source. but again, given that desperation in african country, they're facing wish to west completely who are interested in how many people suffer

and die in africa. countries doing what they have to. and i think call brings in revenue. even though i think gas is a better transition. nigeria has a lot of gas, but again, the environmental lobby, anti industrials, lobby says no, we don't want to using gas because their release is methane in other. what they call dangerous gas vine. lawrence, as always, thank you very much for your time and your thoughts always in lightning when you're in the program. lawrence, k. freeman, african a 1st on the list. thank you very much. ok to add another part of the world. our newly released report has alleged on israel has arrested $600.00 palestinians with our charge. our trial upon the highest number since 20 at 16 now come to america is envoy to the un appeared to be caught off guard somewhat by a question on double standards in the conflict. taking the view away from ukraine to polish finance occupied thought of this same thing because this is done,

the depaula finance. but when there does this, there occupiers, they are called terrorists. and when these buildings are destroyed and garza this sort of difference. so there is but the standard that the word can see, we have to be strong and our support and in our efforts to defend the rights of the israelis to defend themselves against rock and attacks from hamas and other terrorist groups. but we also are clear that palestinians deserve peace, and now prosperity the backdrop to about being flushes which erupt in jerusalem last month in which, over $100.00 palestinians were injured. the israel palestine conflict has been ongoing for over 70 years with a series of conflicts taking place over london. the region arrives in palestine are also demanding the right to of the rule states. while israel says it is protecting

itself from palestinian attacks for the colonial estate, sir malazan believes the situation doesn't get enough attention from the international community. we are seeing that douglas times are forms are what we call the international community, especially the united states of america and european union. they are looking to that and tourists and ignoring her, her dignity and interests all the people week people as a blessing and people. and i give the israeli a commission that i to defend her ham silva from the rockets of bellis in a bible. they ignored that policy of beeble as are under a co buying occupation. and since more than 7, they're the kids and no one in the world, especially at a united states and european union is supporting the policy. now people out as

tango sliding off the bus and, and people and to get their lives to build their estates. you see today or what is happening and jerusalem. we are calling for this for countries in the world to look at the scene and circle as they are. they're dealing with the canadian people. a cemetery in the oldest city in the netherlands has been vandalized. on wednesday graves and monuments sat, a military memorial in the city were defied with swastikas and ukrainian flags police have launched the investigation. the military cemetery holds the graves of more than 1000 soldiers who died during world war 2 most belong to british soldiers. however, many graves belong to soldiers from other countries. on the british commonwealth. the mirror of the city called the instant disgusting. the law in the bulgarian

capital residence defended a monument to soviets soldiers from activists who planned to cover off the monument . ukrainian flags pro key of activists left the area without reaching ah, now as you may know, the ukraine conflict has prompted the telling show anti russian content in many countries, including on television in the u. s. so it's perhaps no surprise when the prominent fox news host, tucker carlson, offered an opinion challenging the mainstream view if then caused something of esther gal up my been picks up the story in the never ending circus. that is american cable news. there's one thing that's pretty consistent. rashid bad nato. good. however, there is one notable exception. his name is tucker carlson. we don't on ukraine, so we can help the ukrainians. they're merely unfortunate ponce and all of this. we

arm ukraine so that we can punish russia. why, for stealing hillary clinton's coronation, where he sees it, this is an unjust war being waged as revenge for alleged russian meddling and u. s. presidential elections. he says, this isn't so much about protecting ukrainians as it is about hurting russia and that regime changes the goal. biden's words seem like pretty solid evidence for that. for god's sake, this man could not remain pall. let's remember that some of the main promoters of this theory that turned out not to be true, and somehow russia got trump elected, have just rolled into kiev. and so is there one so like you know, make to america in this way in the rain maker is tucker carlson is just not impressed. liberals are furious that he dare be skeptical of.

ready the liberal, warhawks, tucker carlson. as again parenting what the war criminals in the kremlin say, biden should push you crane to surrender, reach a settlement rather than lose more lives fighting the russian invasion more. russia 1st propaganda from the america 1st crowd, yet again tucker carlson. tonight, blame in america for prudence. war when i was young to many on the left used to blame america 1st. now the right is proudly the blame america 1st team and tucker carlson, the east team captain happily in american ny tuffs and eyes. the whole generation of russian soldiers that survive this war will spend the rest of their lives haunted by their memories. the cries of the children, chicken hawks for russia like tucker carlson, have never seen anything but ivy league don't listen to them. so of course, now tucker is being labeled as a traitor to the homeland and agent of russia. hooton's pop it, but that's a bit hard to believe is show is doing pretty well rated is number 2 and all of

cable news. it's got 3390000 viewers a night. and it's doing well in some interesting demographics including youth shows or having an impact. here's what a member of congress said. my office is now getting calls from folks who say they watch tucker carlson and are upset that were not citing with russia and it's threats to invade ukraine and who want me to support rushes. reasonable positions. carlton's message is being echoed by rand paul, as he asks questions about the biden administration and their policy decisions. the us, including the bio ministration, insisted on beating the drums to admit ukraine to nato, knowing full well that ukraine was unlikely to ever join the job since it had already been 14 years since they were said they were going to become members. why was it so important last fall, before this invasion, to continue agitating for ukraine's admission to nato. the liberals are reacting to rand paul the same way treason,

mainstream us media is pretty solidly locked down for war. the fact that one single voice speaking up and asking some tough questions is getting such a dramatic response from the public seems to indicate that there's something going on beneath the surface. while there are certainly plenty of americans that are buying the pentagon's talking points, it seems like there are also a large number of americans that are open to hearing the other forbidden side of the story. caleb martin, r. g new york. caleb, wrapping up the news are for us this hour. the story though, of why ukraine's government crew of 2014 was even very contrasting ways in different parts of the country gets going in moments though, stay close for a short documentary next ah

ah, with .
