ah ah, to explore the matter, you fall industrial area where you cranium fights is it tends to break the siege of stall, but failed to live in debris on the bodies of fellow soldiers behind. also ahead he, he's done deployed the army against the prime minister in wrong con, that's the march. buckingham sent violence into bonds. early elections. also coming up russia. does it have sufficient funds to pay its foreign debts in roubles in response to washington, barring moscow from fulfilling its obligations in dollars with

4 am on thursday morning here in the russian capital. mine is peter scott and welcome to 30 minutes of news here on our t. yes, officials claim the offensive in the republic will now advance faster after the surrender of the matter. you pull steal plants. while the area is being cleared of mines with the former positions of the ukrainian troops being inspected, ortiz eager is done, continues to explore maria post industrial area now heading to the place where the hours of fights is tried to break the siege. so this is the place where the as of new nazi battalion try to break through the encirclement and will somehow get to the other. sure. some were swimming across this river. at least tried woke. they failed. and as you can see, this place is in ruins. there still mines are scattered across this place and there's an armored personnel carrier behind me as well that toppled and fell into

the river. and if you were to peak around the corner, just like i did in the beginning, you can still see some of its crew floating in the water as, as of was trying to escape the plan to escape the as of style steelworks. they tried to gain a foothold here under this bridge, making it a temporary shelter for them. a rush, an air raid found them and well, they failed. they couldn't escape. and here you can see all sorts of weapons and equipment scattered around the place, like there's a rocket launcher over there, a, a vest and armored vest over here you have a 2nd rocket launcher, likely in and lower british and law. not only is it loaded, but it is also locked. so one careless step, one careless push and this thing will open fire. all these vehicles around me were destroyed. full of armaments full of weapons, machine guns, sub machine guns,

assault rifles, grenades, you name it here. you can also see plenty of cases like this case will from some miss are launch. unfortunately, i can't tell which one exactly, probably an american made stinger. so all these vehicles they carried some sort of armaments for the as of battalion. and quite interestingly enough, this one is a civilian car. yet if you look under the seats here, you can see mines 120 in caliber. so they were disguising themselves as civilians and they were shipping, transporting. 2 weapons to the as of neo nazi battalion at the plant. well, and here a group of as of neo nazi fighters. this is where the rested one last time before making the final push. you can see stretches here. probably this is where they treated their wandered little bit over here you can see special medical scissors

that were designed specifically to cut clothes on an injured person. also a lot of bullets and even grenades scattered all over this place for the mere putin has paid a visit to a military hospital in moscow where wounded russian soldiers are being treated with what is the 1st time the president has visited soldiers? personally, since the start of the war, together with russia's defense chief, he checked on recovering soldiers. oh, to medical personnel, and thank them for their service. it comes as the russian ministry of defense states, more than $200.00 localities in the done yet. people's republic. i've been taken under control of the russian army since february rushes, representative to the united nations has accused western countries of being one sided and influencing the public to think negatively about moscow calling. it's

a russell phobic information campaign is, as russia is being smid online and in the western media by a collective quote, ministry of truth. let's go live now to dmitri polanski, deputy permanent representative of the russian federation to the you and to meet you. welcome to archie. international. no rush has accused the western warning. cybert's hotel. it's harry newsome and waging a risk for the information campaign. can you give me some examples as russia sees it, please? well, 1st of all, for we need to speak about. so the new iron curtain that is being imposed upon us by western countries because they don't need any object. you're fed through information about what's happening. they just try to impose the views that are being official for them. and so that's not always corresponding to the reality. and these information campaign, the submit history of truth is the number of a number of things that the west is doing. for example, they are,

they are inflating this bubble of lies about what's happening on the grounds about the different situation on the grounds about such things as the butcher or location . grandma tours pro occasion and the others. and inside this bubble, which is very difficult to distinguish for west for western users, for common common western citizens, whether it is true or not true. so we think it's really the behavior of the ministry of truth or ministry of lie, which is the best expression. now moscow is also warned that some people with a can do things such information was warfare won't stop at russia after the achieve their goal. what's your take on that? this is quite dangerous because we know that there is a big army of hackers that is being mobilized by western countries and ukraine trying to target russian military and civilian infrastructure. and these people,

as we understand there were dangerous, and their tasks may not be limited to targeting russia, and after this whole situation is over, we don't know who will control them and who will employ them. so we think that these people represent a big danger and the fact that the united states and its allies has launched a wide scale campaign of hiring these people of teaching them, of giving them the access to best practices of hacking. if i can put it this way, is a very dangerous behavior. and what response does russia have to all this? we of course strengthen our cyber defense. we promoted a lot of initiatives during the last years trying to put in turn now to the governance of the internet on the international control and not under the western control. so we have a lot of diplomatic moves that we still there were way to reply to them to these

moves from our west colleagues, but i don't know how they will act in this situation in these geopolitical setting . and of course, we will try to promote our positions, but we'll try to promote the truce to push the tools over these new iron curtain. it's not an easy task, but i think is the only way to bring at least some object different pieces of information to, to western users. one, i'll totally in the, in blockades and deprived of the inflammation, you know, depth channels like yours, like archie of being banned in a lot of countries and the channels that they have. the really dr. a lot of a lot of information on them to create the impression that is not responding to the situation on the ground. so this is a very dangerous trend and we will need to, to fight with it's now speaking more globally. do you think that the west has

managed to antagonize russia in countries outside his direct influence? for example, in india or south america? we do know that in india they have been put under pressure to condemn versus role in the ukraine. conflicts. i don't see all of these in the here in the u. n. i don't feel this in my context with our counterparts in the u. n. and in the security council, i have the opposite ceiling. i believe that this whole situation revealed what's, what lies beneath the geopolitical exercises of the west sound. a lot of countries have really understood it with all clarity and we feel that there is good degree of support or at least of understanding what we are doing. and a lot of people here in the cool, ours are encouraging us and seeing that they understand the reasons behind our special meaning sort of the ration ukraine. not all of them are of course, staring day or 2 towards these openly. but i don't feel that the western

countries succeeded in kind of imposing one sided version of the winds on the whole of the wide membership of the year. and this was maybe the initial several days. but then the countries started to analyze what's happening. and we also were very active in bringing objective information, so that was them. and so i think that the situation has changed. do you think we've seen a shift, a more multi polar world in the last couple of months? i have no doubts about it because this is the only way the international see what the situation can evolve in the light of what's happening. and of course, the world will be different in a, in a couple of months or so. so we are witnessing this very profound transformation and unfortunately, our western countries do not want to accept it to accept the reality. and they try

to act as if nothing has changed on these be good geopolitical picture about this is over the illusion. of course, the changes are very drastic this year just before we go to meet one of the maintenance of democracy is of course, freedom of expression. how does this attempt to shut down russia fits within us? well, are they? they say that everything that russia presents, that russia promotions, russian propaganda, any objective information, any factual information coming from, from russia, from its media, is labeled propaganda. fake news from the all that's, that's the way they try to combat what we do, but that doesn't work all the time. and i think that the more we bring information about what's really happening, the more effects we disclose to west and the users, the better it is for the change in these tactics by western countries

of imposing these iron curtain that they mentioned to the users population in the west that prevents them from having our view of the situation, which i'm absolutely sure corresponds to the real state of things and not some illusions that all west apartments have. well, dmitri apollyon ski deputy permanent representative of the russian federation to the you and thank you very much for your time today for joining us here on the internet. welcome bye. to pakistan. now where the government's authorized the deployments of the military to protect his headquarters in islamabad, following the arrival in the city of thousands of supporters of the else, the prime minister in wrong con, the process quickly turned violent. ah, protest was supposed to be one of a series of rallies across the country,

but the government funded the decision came after a policeman was killed during raids on the homes of con supporters. the resulted in more than 400 arrests last week, allegedly made to prevent the protest from happening. every once has accused con of inciting a civil, warlike situation, and threatened him with the rest will. earlier in the day, the 1st protesters arriving in the capital were met by police who demanded them to leave on, started firing tear gas authorities, put up roadblocks ahead of the march to stop crowds from entering the council. and my con, organize the march to demand early elections after he was ousted by the opposition in april. and when con addressed his followers before arriving in the capital at once again, claiming the current government is under washington's orders. how many i cannot go to day american servants in pakistan's, most corrupt people, our government are afraid of the people. i don't want. they had blocked the roads with the shipping containers all over pakistan,

stopping our people in arresting them. the guy was a local journalist sent us this report from the scene before him on cons, arrival on the scene, and how his followers removed robots can see the content as the ord was blocked from that site are but they have grants, they have a cucumbers or they have a foil marcus, so they are removing that are koreans and of clearing the doors of that at home, tons of poplar bluff i, his supporters, along with him on thousands of beacons. so this group here, you can see these people know they have the support as far my nearby areas. so they have arrived as the, as the mas force to remove these trucks. so they are of billiard data chanting, snore guns, and they say that they do not accept the important garment and they need elections pot i stuck with no one can stop us. the government is like a bad, which appears only at night. if interior minister is brave,

he must come here in daylight. we will go to islamabad, will reach de check, we will throw out this imported government. then we'll come back. we will send this interior minister to a brothel house where he got married. we'll send him there about our demand. well, we don't accept this imported government. this government must resign immediately. the russian defense ministry says that 5 foreign vessels have already left the pulse about evil. it comes after the opening of to humanitarian corridors for the exit of foreign trade vessels, from ports on the black and as of seas, which is only possible after the de mining on demilitarize ink of the ports, which is hoped it will help restore food supply chains was a mozilla in the freed from militant city of mario, poland, to netscape people's republic de mining, and demilitarized activities in the city. seaport have been completed with the c ports returning to mundane functioning. nevertheless, some western officials have accused russia of using food supply chains as a geopolitical weapon and have warned if russia were to block great exports from

ukraine, it was parked a world humanitarian crisis. we're witnessing how russia is recognizing its energy supplies and indeed this is having global repercussions. unfortunately, we're seeing the same pattern emerging in food security and rushes worship. in the black sea, a blockading ukrainian ships full of wheat and sunflower seeds live now to the host of conservative daily podcast. jo altman. jo, thanks for joining us here on our see. now, thanks for having me. we constantly hair, western ukrainian officials accusing russia of blockading c ports in the us of on black seas, as despite moscow say that minds make it on say, for vessels to leave. what's your take on the situation? well, i think that, you know, one of the issues that we have in america, we don't get adequate knowledge and we talk about this information and

misinformation. we don't know what to believe. so you can turn on one radio station or one tv station or another. and we're constantly fed information of what we're supposed to see and what we're supposed to hear. but, but they don't talk about the things that are happening in the united states to actually contribute to food georgia. here we can't even get baby formula in the united states and we don't get that from ukraine or russia. so they're constantly pushing out this propaganda. and on my side, we don't trust the media. we certainly don't trust our government. and we recognize that leadership on both side is probably things that both russia and the western world can do differently. but every time we've, we've turned around, they use russia as a punching bag. whether we're talking about the trump russian collusion that never happened back in 2016 or we're talking about food shortage is coming out of ukraine . it's funny how they want to use weapons against russia to drive down their currency. and i think that a president putin was, was right when he said, hey, you're going to pay us in our own currency, which quickly restored the currency value of the russian currency. but the same

thing could be said for, for hunger. you know, i don't think let them recruiting or any leader out there wants to cause any sort of world hunger issues. but the united states and other western nations, if you don't know this, they're actually paying farmers not to farmed land. and when we talk about energy supplies, we could talk about the fact that in the united states, we've shut down land leases for oil production. and we've stopped the pipeline for being built, skyrocketing our or oil prices, and it, which affects the most vulnerable among us by nearly 300 percent. now the u. s. page to open what it costs. solidarity channels with ukraine us to help its exports grain. and do you think it's because they want to help all those all get access to the grain themselves? seen as well? sure has cut down on his own grain exports to protect his own food security. what's your take? well, i think that the united states has always played this chess match, and they don't like the fact that russia is looking at their own security as a nation, their own sovereignty of the nation. when russia got involved with ukraine, they said that their violence and everyone the united states in the western world.

so that's not true only to uncover that. that was true. and we think that by allows the push that aside in the fact that there were nazis in and he was trying to de nazi the ukrainian country every. so that's not true. that's not true. when that was uncovered, that days off battalion is a nazi regime that works underneath of zelinski. then they said, all of these are the nice nazi diesel ones that they lead use along. so everything's ok. so there's always this kind of push towards justification of their behavior. while they point fingers at russia, and typically the problem that i have with that is that the same thing that they're accusing russia is the same thing that they're doing. so i don't think that they care about food supply or i don't think they care about people period in the, in the western leadership, i think they've been infiltrated by what they say that they are trying to fight against. and that is a communist socialist ideology, that frankly is dangerous to the entire world. the west is seeking the exports grain from ukraine, which you know as soon as possible. and his seemingly not being too carrying about

what will happen in the country after those granaries are empted. what's your take on that? because obviously, you know, ukraine will need to supply itself in years to come. yeah, so that's, it's the whole idea and we keep sending money over there with, with no accountability and what that money's being used for. and they talk about getting the exports of the green out of the ukraine. but i don't think they've thought far enough ahead to what kind of crisis that might actually generate, generate, and ukraine, specifically for the people, ukraine. it's like a fishbowl that they, that they're looking on the outside in, in, not recognizing some of the, some of the risks to ukrainian people. and frankly, i don't think the west makes decisions on what is good for anyone other than themselves. this latest group that kind of permeates our society across the nation . and that's pretty evident if you look at what's happening, the world economic forum, they're completely disconnected from reality and using propaganda all over the world. and in order to drive this agenda, which frank, frankly, is going to end up killing billions of people across the world. and just before we

go, have time for one last question. now, there are reports, the security service of ukraine. the suggestion of western curators is preparing provocations in grain storage sites are queued, the russian ministry of indiscriminate strikes on civilian infrastructure. and we must say that both sides have accused each of the of indiscriminate strikes on civilian infrastructure. but how do you think this fits them with the talk of averting world hunger? well, i mean again, if we can, craig, there's always opportunity in chaos and creating chaos. and i would hope that the, the russian military would not use and attack civilian targets. i would also hope that we will be dealing with a regime inside of ukraine that would not use propaganda and hurt or, or kill their own people in order to prove a point to create more more fearful and for the rest of the world. but unfortunately, that's not the case. we already know that ukraine has been a hotbed for most of the corruption happening across the world,

obviously know about 100 biden and joe biden, but it's bigger than that. i mean, you would, i was listening to the segment before this of somebody talking about them, you know, instilling these these hackers and trying to attack the infrastructure of russia. well, they've, they've been doing that over the world and every time that seems to happen, it always traces back to russia. russia is the big, bad, bad wolf. and i know for myself, i've spent the last 20 years being taught 30 years being taught that russia's bad, right only to figure out over time by meeting lots of people in russia. i mean, a lot of people, frankly, in nations that that they say are bad, like afghanistan and iraq and in, and even parts of the middle east that it's not the case. so i look at this is just another one of those chapters in the book of, of how they want to rewrite or manipulate the facts in order to protect their interest in that area, which is frankly, a threat to the sovereignty of russia. well joe ullman host of the conservative daily podcast. i'm sure we'll have you on

a get before too long to continue discussing this. thank you very much for your time today. god bless you. the us is pushing russia to announce a technical defaults after washington bar to moscow from penny's debt through american banks. moscow says the default is not on the cards, however, stressed and it has the cost to pay invested and is simply being stopped from fulfilling its obligations. well, earlier my colleague, you know, neil spoke more on this to ortiz moran because df. what the united states actually has done now is by revoking this license, that means russia will no longer be able to pay in dollars. it's bondholders operating through us bank. so paying americans, institutions, banks, investors, who have, throughout the past few months, we've all fluted all the russian debt that they have very few still hold on to russian debt. and we've seen this press trumpeting about a potential russian default. how's russia going to get out of list? but ultimately it's, it's all

a shoe because russia has plenty of money. it's just american bags have, have stopped russia for, for mar paying out lose loans in us dollars. murat, in terms of the dollar k, then being shut to russia. what does it mean for moscow? while the united states has made no secret of this very little change? because ultimately, this isn't a default in the classical sense. russia has said that the, it won't call this a default, but also what he russia says it will continue paying at its obligations of coupons, monthly payments in roubles. and the united states is pretty much said the same thing. you know, not a whole lot will change if fresh is unable to find a legal way to make these payments. and they technically default on their debt. i, i don't think that really represents a significant change in russia situation. they're already cut off from global

capital market. what will, by the way change is, is, is in this type of energy crisis across the world with, with fuel prices in, in california, in asia, you know, in a, in africa all sort through parts of the diesel gasoline for electricity. they're all going to have to pay more even more for their fuel, which they will keep by. i am much in russia has anticipated such a move by washington. what are they doing to shield themselves from those sanctions? well, it's, as putin said, russia had spent years preparing for a sanctions onslaught to suit we're seeing now, which, which has been unprecedented thousands upon thousands of sanctions which have restricted russia away from western capital markets. and vladimir putin had said now is, is the time to adapt you, he, to where you, i have already said. and i would like to emphasize again today that in the new conditions the russian economy will certainly remain open. moreover,

will expand corporation with those countries that are interested in mutually beneficial corporation, the actions of some countries and to isolating themselves from russia even to their own detriment shows how important it is in the modern world to diversify traffic flows and expand corridors in the direction of responsible partners, time and time again, we had heard a biden officials and in europe all come out and say that we're willing to hurt ourselves to hurt our people's for the sake of getting it putin, it remains to be seen how far they will go and how, how much they're prepared to hurt themselves on their people in order to, to, to be seen as getting that putin, if the aim is to punish russia is very strange. because essentially, the u. s. is say, oh, russia doesn't have to service instead of with preventing them from, from servicing it running because the u. s. has put all of resources into the i m f and the world bank in the last 70 years in order to get countries that borrow

internationally to, to make sure they, they really pay their coupons in time. so we see that the international finance is very much political to essentially, i think the real story is that, trying to make russia look bad, which is kind of childish, really, if you think about it, i mean we've got a series international situation and they're playing games like that, russian oil giants lu, coil has announced its acquiring british multinational shelf ponds, unfitting stations in russia. lucas will now own all the stocks belonging to shells, russian subsidiaries. the u. k. company is in control of some 400 petrol stations. the move is part of an ongoing policy of cussing business side with moscow over its war in ukraine. we requested to comment from you caught lou coil on the latest development and of course, will bring you any response as and when we get it. but his economics and banking specialist richard verna, again for the company is not a good thing and for shareholders,

it certainly is not about maximizing value for shareholders. and that's quite interesting because for, for decades we've been told that western capitalism is about shareholder value maximization until we find out it isn't. if you go back to the 1st world war, the 2nd world war. and at that time, both on the level of finance, banking system and industry companies, investments by american companies, you know, all that continued throughout. and so it was even, you know, american companies producing military equipment in germany during the 2nd world war. and so that, that is an interesting angle that really and russia is being punished in, in a very ran unusual way that didn't even happen when germany was the enemy, us climates and void john kerry. speaking of the world economic form endeavors

warned against using the energy crisis as an excuse to build up more fossil fuel infrastructure. but at the same time, coal and oil production are rising in the us fuel prices are also rising, and the white house is now considered relaxing some environmental standards on petrol to make prices more affordable. with all the details here is all sees rachel blevins. the world economic forum is annual summit, is tackling a range of issues including one that has been all but forgotten in recent months. climate change. that's why the united states, top of visual on the matter, is warning the world against using the current energy crisis to forget about plans to transition away from fossil fuels. no one should believe that the crisis of ukraine as an excuse to suddenly build out the old kind of infrastructure that we had. we can meet the crisis of ukraine and the energy crisis of europe and still deal as we must with the climate crisis. john kerry, who was named the u. s. climate envoy when the role was created by the, by an administration savage technology to combat climate change already exists. it

just means more investment and he's worried that won't happen as the u. s. and his allies are instead focusing on trying to replace gas supplies from russia. we have the basic technologies now already deployed to get where we need to in the next 8 years to meet the goal of a 45 percent reduction. but we do not have yet, the technologies fully brought to scale and develop sufficiently. we can't do it if the new theology is going to become. we've got to build out a massive gas infrastructure without regard to abatement and mitigation of that guess and is concerned, you're becoming a reality despite the buying and ministration plan for a transition to green energy as well. production you asked is currently on the rise, we forecast that production will increase to more than $12800000.00 barrels per day in 2023, surpassing the previous annual average record. in here is that u. s. foreign policy and u. s. energy policy are at odds as a report from the thinking influence map shows that oil and gas companies are

capitalizing on.
