2:05 pm
all over the place according to the neighbors. this house belongs to an elderly couple who dont usually live here, but they arrived here on that they to pick up certain documents and they take it back to deeper within that the next peoples republic territory. unfortunately, once they arrived here, the shell and commenced, and they were both heavily wounded. ah, the cranium military seems to be targeting civilian infrastructure here nissan of us. they will along the entire front line as well. ah, at the moment i'm approaching a children's hospital, which was a bombed just her recently. as you can hear, shelling is still taking place. this is a children's hospital. obviously it's out of commission right now. it's very, very difficult to say why the crane in military is targeting civilian
2:06 pm
infrastructure, people's homes, ah, gas pipelines, ah, water pumping stations, children's hospitals. when i spoke to the mayor of the city, well, he suggested that they're trying to create a panic that trying to terrorize the people so so that they would evacuate from here soon as possible. however, he told me that sir, only about 30 percent of the city have evacuated, and so the rest decided to remain here until he ends or until victory comes remark offer. if archie, yes and other than his people's republic or british journalist steve sweeney recently visited ukraine and said that he faced the rest as well as an alleged death threat when reporting from a city in the country's west. he shared his story with us. i thought it couldn't
2:07 pm
cause it to go. i'm actually inside you crate and to try and get to the truth about what's happening there because as your viewers and and yourself will be where to where the british media reporting is now incredibly restricted. so you have the times, the telegraph, the guardian, the b, b, c channel for sky news. all really were producing identical reports from kevin, from live, but don't deviate a tool from the, from, from the government. i'm from the line on, on what's happening. so i thought was a journalist really is mine, my job, my duty is to report the truth, the truth, the truth matters. so that was why i thought it was important to get in a report on the ground. and there was a number of stories really, i wanted to check out my child in to live in western ukraine i traveled in from, from poland where, you know, that crossing is,
2:08 pm
is still open. and i have to say that the 1st thing that struck me really was on my coach on the way in. i was opposite a mom with a tattoo of a gun on his face dressed in fatigues. now, you know, we don't really judge by we shouldn't really judge by appearances, but yeah, i think that told me really everything that i needed needed to know before i even entered and, and the city itself was. 2 essentially full of fascists and mercenaries, people in military fatigues are using civilian transport networks to enter into ukraine on whether any checks on those people are getting in any questioning as to where they were going, etc. i mean these, these people, this is the, i'm and a really, is that the people to the address in minute fatigue and then coming to fight on the ukranian side are welcomed with open arms. i mean that they rolled the red car on the back and i own treated as is hero. and nazi harmony. i went in
2:09 pm
on with a pendant camera and i what happened to me was very stark contrast. i mean, if i was going in with him, but she fatigues and a gun, i said, i'm going off to kill russians then i would have been very made very welcome. instead, what happened to me was, i was told that, you know, aust quizzed about my business in ukraine. told i was a spy, told i would be tortured, rested, and tortured the indication was possibly worse than that, which means that they would have potentially killed me. great effort being made to whitewash this will rehabilitate the the as office either like having no influence in ukraine. all old being just simply misunderstood masters. i deconstructed this and the b. b. c showed what i could only describe as
2:10 pm
a 9 minute master classic fascism design. denial, le, russian foreign minister has accused the west of waging a proxy war against russia. that's a mid report. the biden administration is preparing to send long range missile systems to give sir gala roth told our tape that such a step will ratchet off. already soaring tensions in europe. zip. go to the west is cool to inflict, to military defeats on russia. they need to pump weapons in to ukraine, including those that can hit russian territory. president zalinski has publicly requested such weapons and we have strongly warned the west against providing them . it is effectively waging a proxy war against russia using hands bodies, and minds of ukrainian near nazi. but long range weapons would drastically escalate the conflict. and i sincerely hope that the fi reasonable people in the west understand some of them. so there was lots of interesting remarks in that. sit down, you can watch the full interview with russian foreign minister, a circular, rough on rti international. later today,
2:11 pm
the u. s. defense secretary has reiterated that america is keen to avoid a direct confrontation in ukraine, saying that he have bears the brunt of the responsibility to resolve the conflict. this is ukraine's right because not the united states fight at the end of the day. and you know what, what this looks like, what im state looks like will be defined by the ukrainians. cannot buy us. well, in any case, some experts are worried about the us length enough of its own weaponry to continue supplying ukraine for much longer. retired army, colonel washington's plans have changed entirely, and they're not seeking to distance themselves from key if he thinks heckling their strategy in afghanistan. now they're talks about during western ukraine into quote unquote, greatest at to try and build an endless war that will go on and quote,
2:12 pm
unquote lead russia, which i see not happening. frankly, i don't, i know the europeans will put up with it or let me stop you. what do you mean by ukraine? is stan, well, the idea that's being hatched over the pentagon and in the white house is, well, we'll just turn western ukraine into some version of afghanistan for the russians. so that do they, they'll end up in this endless guerrilla war before i say, unless lori johnson believes washington is trying to move away from the conflict in ukraine after he sees its proxy war with russia backfire. i was struck the other day. i was looking at different media sites, trying to see whether there was intense coverage or not. and it is the story has virtually disappeared. they're focusing on other things and talking about ukraine. and part of the reason for that is that the war has gone badly for ukraine. russia's winning the story line, they tried to tell of the evil russians tearing up that country and brave ukrainian,
2:13 pm
justine fighting and arguing the russians. that's completely gone by the war leadership side. they're trying to figure out how to get themselves out of this now, because this is blown up in their faces as well. the problem is, they think they can, so meant an insurgency. i think those that have seized upon that as of it is the viable strategy or frankly deluding the right now the united states is they embark on on a war with rush. i don't think we need to sugar coated to try to pretend that it's something that they haven't barked on the war with russia, but they were hoping to get it done without getting into shooting. and now all of the tools that they thought they were going to use, particularly on the sanctions front, completely backfires because it's suffering shortages, the west,
2:14 pm
the suffering, the inflation, and it's the worst. it's going to be suffering higher than one a group of legal scholars and experts. now, as accused russia of breaching a u. n. convention on the incitement of genocide, they claim it's an independent analysis. the 1st on such accusations, since the ukraine conflict began, or senior correspondent morocco the talk me through the alleged impartiality of the paper. well, they claim to be entirely independent. they say that all of their financing comes from within the united states, but then you look at the roles list, the staff listed. most senior staff are well that they're, they're familiar crowd. there are all people who have worked for the united states state department for the pentagon, for the u. s. military, that their people from stratford, which is known as the shadow, cia, they're there from the atlantic council, which is a rapidly anti anti russian. i think tag, which for years is called for,
2:15 pm
for more and more hawkish behavior by the united states and its allies against russia. nevertheless, the news lives institute doesn't, doesn't make any secret of what its mission is and that is the fashion and to enhance u. s. foreign policy, our purpose is to shape p. s foreign policy based on a deep understanding of regional g i politics and the value systems of those regions. well, they're, they're alleging that russia and this is the there wording that, marcia could reasonably be accused of genocide, of all intent to commit genocide now though they may call all sorts of arguments which are entirely based on ukraine's point of view and what ukranian officials and ukrainian media, both of which are in war propaganda mode of said sizing examples of various, as they say, atrocities carried out by, by russian troops. that there was no sort of any effort to verify the thing,
2:16 pm
no sort of effort to, to check whether this actually happened or whether this is just as it seems. entirely war propaganda from ukrainian pundits anonymous witnesses and the likes. it would be interesting if for this report had mentioned the sorts of things that ukrainian officials have said, i want the word russians to be forgotten in the carcass region. i want the word russians to be forgotten in the loo. hans can genetic regions. we have a full moral right to kill these non humans all over the world, calmly and with a completely clear mind over an unlimited amount of time and in the largest possible quantities. if they had been investigating ukraine's intent to commit genocide against russia, they would, i guarantee you have had a much more solid case because what their case rests on he is by accusing rush of the intent to commit genocide. they say ref,
2:17 pm
fax to improve to back this up is that bladder, me a putin. and several russian officials of over the years said the ukraine and russia, a brotherly nations. that they are one people. and, you know, in this is a stretch of facts, a stretcher, an exercise, you know, in self deception. to claim that because russia says that you create and russia, ukrainians, and russians are one people. it means that russians want to erase you gradient culture and the ukranian identity, which couldn't be further from the truth. there's a plethora of disinformation and miss made the misstatement, the facts in this report, basic basic fact. and the end result is that the united states state department than us media can. and again, wave about a short he report the twists absolutely everything it can twist to accuse russia of a genocide based on the testimony of ukrainian officials. a former senior
2:18 pm
security policy analyst in the office of the u. s. secretary defense, michael maloof says conflicts such as what is unfolding in ukraine are almost impossible to analyze independently, ever all the sides that are involved in this conflict. i don't know that you can actually come up with a so called independent report or an analysis. and there's always going to be influences from various groups and entities. and you're in coming up with these kinds of reports. and i think it was a, it's curious that the allegations that they are saying against russians they're, they're perpetrating themselves from the ukrainian side in the eastern portion of, of ukraine, namely hitting infrastructure. and given the comments that were just made, i don't take, it's a genocide at all. it is the fog of war,
2:19 pm
and it is war. and it's, you don't have what you had in the rwanda situation, where there was a concerted effort by one tribe to eliminate and annihilate every member of another tribe. you just don't have that here. so i think it's gross exaggeration. it is a narrative that they're trying to push and it doesn't, it still does not fulfill the very definition of what is regarded as genocide under the geneva conventions. in spite of the fact that many, many lives have been lost, video has emerged showing refugees purportedly ukrainians, allegedly being evicted from a hotel in spain that comes in made claims of european countries. suspending aid programs due to rising costs say, thank you very much. ringback ok,
2:20 pm
well i made prices soaring across the continent. european countries appear to be recognizing that hosting so many refugees doesn't come. cheap. ortiz don quarter has been examining, changing attitudes in the you to that issue. 6.6000000 ukrainians have fled their country and become refugees. as a result of the conflict that's about 5 times more people than the last migrant crisis in europe and the posting. these people was expensive back then it's off the charts. now. the cost of providing for these refugees will strain countries, budgets, and not just in the short term integrating refugees into the economies will require large scale resources, time and supportive policies. in 2016 germany spend approximately $12000.00 euros per refugee per year. not including any language and cultural integration classes, support for ukrainian refugees could cost hosting states as much as $30000000000.00 over the next year. as if you wasn't already dealing with supply chain issues in
2:21 pm
energy crisis. record breaking inflation that into this already long list of economic woes is everything connected to hosting a sudden influx of millions of people. poland been by far, the hardest hit since it's accepted over 3000000 refugees. that kind of budgetary strain is making itself felt across small polish border towns. everything else we have so far paid from our modest crisis fund that is, or rather was $22000.00. these fonts are definitely not sufficient. what worries me the most, our electricity bills that i suspect will knock us over our town can definitely not be this costs. the sums i mentioned are a drop in the ocean. even warsaw is barely keeping up with its population surge of nearly 20 per cent since late february, it's mayor is already talking about relocations. we need a relocation scheme because we need to share the burden the ukrainians are fighting for our freedom. and we need to do our bid number of polish cities are trying to
2:22 pm
economize at least by ending free public transport rides for ukrainians. as one might imagine that hasn't gone down well with refugees with visit with it's not just poland, making cuts. so bulgaria is having to cut refugee subsidies and relocate people ukrainians, and the czech republic will soon have to find work or lose their government benefits. in lafayette, the authorities have stopped providing refugees with free food, and the netherlands is even having to force local councils to accept refugees since many are not willing. this is not one i wanted, but this is how it is. in the coming weeks, we are going to say to a number of local councils, you have a suitable building. the permits are in order. it is owned by the refugee settlement agency or the state. and so we are going to use it despite freeing up billions to try and tackle this newest refugee crisis. even brussels has admitted
2:23 pm
there's not enough money to go around. the 7 year budget that started in 2021 was made for peace. nobody envisaged, as we were negotiating that budget, that there would be a war in europe. i think it is fair to say that the budget that we have now wasn't really made for the situation in which we find ourselves. considering experts are saying a global recession and a food crisis are also on the horizon. it looks like europe may be in for a tough couple of years. i didn't know what you were being so thinking they weren't really consulted. that's a whole lot of people. and they all have to be paid for. they will have to be looked after. they have to be how they have to be provided with jobs or with welfare payments. he doesn't have that kind of money. m a germany doesn't have that money. that's on top of all the other economic problems or, you know, storing food prices soaring energy prices. so where is this money going to come from to bay for these ukranian?
2:24 pm
they'll no doubt the pressure why food the u. s. is profiting from the struggles of ukraine while european countries are carrying the burden. so say the chinese foreign ministry spokesperson overthrown poor since the outbreak of the russia ukraine conflict. europe has been bearing the cost economically, politically and socially. but the u. s. has been reaping the benefits u. s. arms dealers have been celebrating with champagne and the u. s. grain and energy industries have made a fortune. well, this may be what the chinese are alluding to u. k. energy caps are expected to rise to the record $2800.00 pounds in october with prices skyrocketing in the e. u as well. those spikes are causing major problems for the german car industry, disrupted supplies of ammonia grain, as well as sunflower oil shortages of push the fertilizer and food prices, with many small businesses having to close,
2:25 pm
according to the washington post inflation in the west, has reached a 40 year peak radio host and commented or garland nixon believes the u. s. isn't concerned with europe's sacrifices, as long as it benefits what the europeans have understand is the ukraine crisis. bob sped up a dynamic that was inevitable in the same way that if a person doesn't have food, if you start starving, your body will literally consume its own tissue to try to keep the organs and the hard in the main parts of the body alive. what's happening is, as russia and china provide viable alternatives for developing nations to, to, to trade with them, whether it's in bananas or uranium or coffee or whatever it is. it gets more difficult for the u. s. empire to pray on these compet countries. and to have a high standard of living based on those predatory actions. so what it is done is turned inward, and now it has to pray on the european union here in the united states. i mean,
2:26 pm
we have some level of, you know, we have increased gas prices, we have a increased inflation, but no more than what's going around the world. we probably have the norm that's going around the world as opposed to europe, which has dramatically larger problems. they're not as wealthy as the united states, they're not as economically stable. and keep in mind something the u. s. in russia can grow their own food. we can create our own a, you know, we provide our own energy and the you can do neither of those things. amid protests in pakistan this month in support of us did. prime minister iran come a number of people including members of cons, political party have been jailed according to the country security forces. the former pm's backers were targeted in the provinces of punjab, anson, more than a 1000 people in total were arrested with as mentioned some in prison 2 according to come 2 of his party workers were killed during the on rest as well. he

2:28 pm
protests have been put on hold since then the writer and global policy analyst side mohammed ali said it's unclear whether can will eventually return to power, but stones and much better chance if they must have sure of support on the streets hold up. that depends upon 2 factors. if the current government can resist him on cons, pressure, and survive, and improve de carnaby, then it can seriously dent him. run cons, reelection prospects. but if the current government does not manage to improve the economy as much as it wants to, and in run con, can exploit the inability of the kind of government to manage and improve the
2:29 pm
economy. then it is possible that enron con can return to bog less than use rough, but a 3rd dive into any of this. our stories can be found on our website, all the updates you need on a, for a bit more. besides, i'm, you know, neil, good bye. for now, the, the the the, the, the web shames associate, mr. maker, we engage in dialogue with all interested parties. this tool was playing quite some
2:30 pm
time ago. in jerry we had a very substances, an extended talks with president ted bone and foreign minister le member. we have good ties in defense and industrial sectors and active cultural and humanitarian exchange. we also value the resistance of the arab nations to the west and lead and their impartial assessment of the situation in ukraine. they don't join the sanctions regime against russia because they generally understand that the cause of the current events is the blatant refusal of all western colleagues to grow on equal and impartial security in our common region. my oman visit was the 1st one from so 10 heights has been carrick, l said as seated to the throne. he gave me a warm welcome to spend a lot of time with me. i really appreciated this from his majesty, as the mom protocol doesn't require interaction with ministerial level officials. in such form. the talks have demonstrated that we have a loss of potential for development, especially in trade and economy. we are able to take these ties to the.
