time time to sit down and talk the likely and lower british and law. not only that loaded but it is also locked. so one careless step, one careless push, and this thing will open fire or t explores the as a stall, industrial area, and mario full where, which was the epicenter of fighting in recent weeks between russian forces and hold up ukrainian nationalist troops. as the mining efforts are now underway, economic turbulence and thousands of last jobs predicted as the new, a free round of sanctions against moscow. and shortage of

russian fertilizers in mexico takes its toll. our local farmers who have raised alarms about an impending disaster as they lose more and more crops. it would basically mean death. what would happen to the people in the whole country without agriculture? the news broadcasting live from our studios and moscow. this is archie international. i'm john thomas. certainly glad you with us. as we recap the week stop stories are now off. go has said that it uncovered any elaborate planned by ukrainian nationalist forces to shell russian, that territory from north eastern ukrainian city of so many are the border to provoke a response from russia. now again, according to moscow, they then plan to detonate chemical reserves and accuse moscow of committing a chemical attack elsewhere. and the war torn port city of mario pal, civilian life has been gradually returning. following 2 months of intense fighting, russian forces have been de mining and the harbor there enabling the 1st commercial

vessel to enter the waters since the war started. about $13000.00 explosives have reportedly been uncovered in the area so far. the mining operations have also been under way at the cities as a stall, industrial plan, which was the epicenter of fighting between russian and ukrainian forces in recent weeks. more than 2000, you can, new troops surrendered there recently and now their former positions are being inspected. for booby traps our case, it goes down of comments now on location and a bit of warning. you may find some of the following images disturbing. so this is the place where the as of near 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. they're 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 plot 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 minds 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 they rested one last time before making the final push. you can see stretches here. probably this is where they treated the wounded a little bit over here you can see special medical services that were designed specifically to cut clothes on an injured person. also

a lot of bullets and even grenades scattered all over this place. e leaders have so far failed to reconcile differences over a long awaited 6th round of sanctions against russia, which might include an oil. ben, that's as the president of the austrian industries federation. george canal has sounded. the alarm over a possible halt of gas imports. he says, an embargo might cause 300000 austrians to looser jobs. it would have massive negative effects on our economy. the greatest risk does not come from russia. this is not the security of planning that we require. this would be a straight path towards a loss of prosperity. earlier hungary held up the use 6th package of anti russian sanctions saying that halting russian oil imports would cripple its economy. meanwhile, european industrial leaders and the precious gem and car production sectors are

worried about a living wave of mass unemployment and major jolts for factories. they say, with little to no consequences for moscow or his europe correspondence shall depends the reports. well, if he thought the surgeon how sold energy prices was bad enough and then to add on to that the increasing basic goods, then you may want to walk away from your screen right now because the warnings coming from certain industries about the feature of the european economy if the block continues with sanctions against russia is pretty devastating. this will start off with the car industries with manufacturers such as b, m, w, and also volkswagen. suggesting that further sanctions could see the entire industry grind to a halt or industry accounts for around 37 percent of german natural gas consumption, not just b m w, but the entire sector would come to

a standstill. i think we should do the utmost to really stop this war and get back to negotiations and get back to trying to open up the world again. well, it could be time to slap up a call before those production holes, but it's not just that warning from the car and stream. we're also hearing a pretty similar warning coming from the diamond industry. now at the moment, there are new sanctions against russian diamonds being imported, but sanctions that have been imposed by the u. s. a said to cause a problem already in the supply worldwide. so much so that the hot of the diamond industry here in europe and i'm to up in belgium is suggesting that they could be wide by bankruptcy and major job losses. and all experts say, for new reason, by banning russian stones, we would only be cutting our own flesh. it would cost $10000.00 jobs in one fell swoop, and it won't hurt the russians. they would just fly their stones to do by that

despite is pussy in quite a warning. so different industries, it seems that the wants to do a full steam ahead with the sanctions. it's already saying that it looks set to approve a sick set of sanctions. hopefully in the next few days now throughout the war and ukraine is the new has been announcing new sanction package off the new sanction package. it has said one thing pretty consistently that the packages of sanctions must harm the russian economy more than they calm the economy, scale in europe at the moment that doesn't appear to be the case with the russian economy being far more robust than expected. however, here in europe, many people are really feeling the price squeeze. and of course, we're now getting this warnings from many industries about the devastating impact that could be if there are further sanctions. meaning that many on our questioning, whether the sanctions themselves or even doing their job. meanwhile,

the head of the european commission has made a u turn while talking about a russian oil ban, saying that the move wouldn't be safer for the economy or so vander lineup. previously insisted on energy sanctions against russia, but now she says, an oil embargo would only benefit president put. so today we will propose to ban all russian oil from europe. this will be if we would completely cut immediately as of today, off the oil. he might be able to take the oil that he does not sell to the european union to the world market, where the prices will increase and sell it for more to west is getting more desperate. i think they see russia winning this war in eastern ukraine. so far, the economic sanctions against russia have not hurt russia. in fact, the rubel is now record highs. meanwhile, seems like the sanctions of backfired on the west. i don't see how europe can

refuse russian oil. i mean, maybe they could try to be less dependent on it, but the fact is it's the closest oil supplies. so this is an insane move by europe if they do this. and i think a lot of leaders there in the population know it. i think they know that their political future is probably on the line, but again, whether they will follow what they know is uncertain. the far reaching effect of western sanctions on russia has been impacting latin america with russia. one of the world's largest fertilizer exporters, accounting for more than 12 percent of the global market. sanctions on exports have put the whole region on the verge of an agricultural crisis. ortiz alex pinion reports from mexico to learn you propose. last year i planted 3 actors, but this year, only one year, due to rising prices for raw materials, and especially due to the shortage of russian fertilizers caused by the imposed

sanctions. sergio garcia has had to plant less corn and tomatoes this year. over the past decade, mexico's agricultural sector has become more dependent on russian fertilizers, particularly urea. according to preliminary estimates, mexico needs about 6000000 tons of fertilizer this year, filling without other school, nissan is not getting to these problems are not related to a long standing friendly partnership, but are explained by the difficulties in transporting goods on a global level which arose primarily because of the situation with russia and ukraine, therefore it's currently difficult to import fertilizers into mexico sim. but i think that the growing crops with our fertilizer could be a real disaster from mexico and if the moment villas at the moment, farmers are considering different options to get out of the situation. for example, it has been proposed to use other types of fertilizers or apply smaller amounts to reduce costs. sergio garcia is buying less fertilizer, where he previously used 5 bags of fertilizer. now he only uses 3. length is unit

number month. i will try to grow crops. i can only hope that i will not lose the money i have invested. but i do not think that is possible. i think production volumes will decrease in the said, my thing is that meter is also a shortage of fertilizers and warehouses in a, in general, 20 percent of farmers costco to fertilizers. but in the shortage that figure has risen to 50 percent according to forecast by the end of the spring summer cycle. farmers may lose part of their crops in some cases up to 50 percent. lily bottom, ayana with the price may change from day to day, particularly thought any issues with the weather. as the saying goes, don't count your chickens before they hatch. the mexican government has said it plans to triple fertilizer production to support the agricultural sector. so far, 740000 farmers and 9 mexican states have taken advantage of free fertilizers to feed their corn beans, wheat, and rice crops. at the problem is there is not enough support for everyone jeopardizing employment for hundreds of thousands of families and driving of food

prices. a major crisis is brewing fed yet under control. it would basically mean death. what would happen to the people in the whole country without agriculture? the trade turnover between mexico and russia may seem insignificant in relation to other countries. but as we see, it is of strategic importance that he does you. this situation will really harm our economic relations and trade turnover, which has been on the rise. of course, it must be taken into account that due to the conflict in ukraine and the sanctions imposed against russia, this growth will stop and the trade turnover will decrease economic sanctions against russia, imposed over the conflict in ukraine or having macroeconomic consequences. and mexican farmers are already feeling their impact within just a few weeks time. one of them alex pinion. barty mexico city it has been a tumultuous week in pakistan and thousands of supporters of ousted prime minister

iran cons. political party have taken to the streets to protest against the countries at new leadership appointed by parliament. some of the demonstrations have descended into violence amid clashes with police. the police have been using to das to disperse the enraged protestors accused of throwing stones amid the violence. numerous people were detained authorities put up roadblocks to prevent troves of constant supporters from entering the capital and as well. but the demonstrators is still managed to break through the prime minister, organized a march to demand new elections after he was deposed at last month and a vote of no confidence by the national parliament and on his way to islam. but con, spoke out to his supporters, saying that the newly appointed government serv, under washington's orders. america cannot today american servants,

in pakistan's, most corrupt people or government are afraid of the people i go on. they had blocked the roads with the shipping containers all over pakistan, stopping our people and arresting them like i was. the political turmoil has been exacerbated by rising fuel prices as the new government has increased tariffs in a reported bid to unlock more. i'm a funding for the country. some say cons office would not have permitted those controversial price hikes. journalist java drama says that the current government is being orchestrated by the us. this government has him clearly pers, places of origin because it is on the dictation of the armor which is controlled by the u. s. u. s. was very unhappy with the former prime minister because it made it clear that the the to show was get, was to give us or you on 30 person confession. and the, the economy of focus on has been a bit dr. usually any one of the economy back on track. i think when he was removed,

there was a public backlash because there was already an american. cindy mentioned fucking song and when people came to know this is jim june's agenda was stalked by. the americans, i think then people who don't know do hundreds of thousands, they'll come the farmer farmers on the fish the us has planned to bring in over 1000000 cans of baby formula from overseas in the coming weeks after a shortage has seen empty store shelves nationwide, due to disruptions in the supply chain, now the stems from february shutdown of a formula manufacturer that had controlled almost half of the domestic market. earlier in new york, mayor declared a state of emergency over the shortfall. the nationwide infant formula shortage has caused unimaginable pain and anxiety for families across new york. and we must act with urgency the mayor of new york city, eric adams declaring

a state of emergency because of a lack of availability of baby formula nationwide. but also here in the city, in the boroughs of queens in the borough of brooklyn, people just don't find it on the store shell. it's not there. and this comes on the back of joe biden, invoking the defense production act, getting the military involved reading this as a national emergency. the fact that they need formula is not available there is a nationwide shortage. this is some of the reaction with america being in the current situation that we're in now. we don't have the funds in order to pay for, you know, the inflation or the prices in the higher gap and things like that. it's really all or and so with the price is going on everything. you don't have food for your babies. it's kind of like where's my health? when i renew in government, he's got more not only for the formula to supply chain issue why i don't

understand why our government isn't doing more. now. one of the major factors leading up to this was the shutting down of a facility that made a very large percentage of us baby formula. i was determined that there were unsanitary conditions as a facility. some babies were infected. so as a result of that, this facility was shut down by the food and drug administration that caused the shortage. in addition to that, there are issues related to the supply chain. i increase demand coming out of the pandemic, etcetera. but all of that, just reading a situation where a lot of people are very, very nervous. you can't find a formula anywhere. look at walmart. walgreens, my baby can't find anywhere. it's really, really hard to find. we've looked all over at wal mart here, target everywhere like formulas, basically out everywhere. it's hard to go to the store and find exactly what, what he's drinking with all the other formulas, like he was sitting up and everything. and so now with nosy, we'll switch them to this one and it's just hard to find the formula that he's on.

this is being treated as a very serious emergency here in new york city and a national level. we've heard some thunderous speeches on the floor of congress. money has been allocated to deal with this out, but many people are looking at this as a failure of dividing administration. why was not taken more seriously? why was priority not given to this issue rather than dealing with international issues. ready that they seem to have been given priority to the a lot of anger as a lot of working families are worried about where baby formula will come from. there's also been reports of price gouging because baby formula is so rare. there been reports of people charging quite a bit of money for it. you know, i'm in the shortage. there's attempts to crack down on that. so why did serious situation, especially here in new york city, but all across the united states, us secretary of state antony blinking said on friday that turkey's objections to finland and sweden joining nato would soon be overcome, possibly, even before the alliance's summit next month. now,

earlier turkeys president accused those northern countries of supporting what it considers turkish terrorist groups and said that the block has failed to address those concerns. we believe that an enlargement policy, which disregards the fundamental aspects of security won't bring benefits for us or for nato. so all nato states would needed to agree for a new member state to be accepted on cra, has accused stock coven, helsinki of harbouring members of the christ on workers party, which turkey considers a terrorist organization on cra, also wants, and sanctions lifted over his military operation. against the kurdish forces in syria about finland and sweden have faced domestic opposition against their bid to join the western military alliance. in sweden's 2nd largest city guttenberg crowds took to the streets to express concerns about the country potentially being dragged into nato wars. politicians in both nor technicians have refused to put the issue

up for referendum. prominent journalist in finland recently burned the nato flag and protest against joining the block. you car horn in the chairman of the association of independent journalists conducted the demonstration in the center of helsinki. we spoke to him about the country's public perception of the u. s. lead military block, but i. e, lisa durable is what the swarm will nato will not increase phelan security. there are many people in finland who are against nato, especially because the block is increasing tensions with russia. we have a shirt long border of 1300 kilometers on the fence of learn to live in harmony with russia here for 80 years and do not want any tension. we don't know exactly how many fins are against during nato now, but before there was 60 or even 70 percent of the population. therefore the fins have taken a civil initiative on a referendum in record time. and this initiative is received the necessary 50000

votes. so forth, however, the parliament has still refused to take this into account, which is unprecedented. this referendum of the finished people was ignored for political reasons, to finish politicians just wanted everything to be passed very quickly. finland and sweden's beds for nato membership have been almost universally welcomed by the current nato states. but there is opposition, as we just heard from turkey and also from croatia you, her co hannon again, is angered by finish public not being allowed to say or have a say rather in the countries biggest decision and decades. they was son or a dallas, or we live in finland that an unprecedented time debates and fin on that in the media and now completely under the control of nato. the finished media was completely one sided about nato. but in fact, the more serious problem in finland, his social networks were if you say something against nato, you will immediately be called an agent of a foreign government. that is,

in this case, a russian agent. people are intimidated at work even found and yell that in social networks are not allowed to speak out against nato, or simply express their own opinions. my generation is never witness something like this when people are being completely gagged and this is just sad. in my opinion, this is absolutely killing the conversation on social networks, but by burning the nato flag in this, i wanted to show the finland still desk to express its own opinion, even if they are trying to silence it's in every possible way. as a decades long economic globalization has been disrupted by covered restrictions, tit for tat sanctions and of the war in ukraine, brazil's economy minister says that not following the world wide trend has been a blessing for his country, brazil's out of sync with the rest of the world, we stayed out of the party. there was a 30 year party of globalization. everyone took advantage. everyone integrated the value chain. we were cursed because we were out of this thing. now we're blessed.

but that sentiment was not shared by the majority of the influential world leaders, businessman and opinion shapers, who gathered at the global economic form in the alpine source town of doves this week. globalization was dominating international trade for the last 3 decades. but now, amid the pandemic and the current conflict in europe, the world is becoming more fragmented. some of the forums participants came up with buzzwords to describe a suppose, a new form of globalization. they used to euphemism such as re shoring, self sufficiency and resilience. to describe the global economy becoming fragmented into individual regions. nevertheless, economics professor is the one that caused our insists that the global market integration promotes progress. there is a new wave which is pushing many countries towards

new job. political positions. resources are not concentrated everywhere. and they are not disposable immediately. the way we need. so to be a part it is very difficult. the bigger is gone, 3, the nicer and the higher can be the probability of the possibility of supplying itself. that's the case of russia, of brazil, of the united states, and some other enormous continental countries. however, even disposing some of these war materials, people acknowledge ease and the like which are essential to create this autonomy. integration is necessary because somehow it demonstrates the existence of

progress, which is substantial for all countries together. as western countries suffer from an energy crisis amid disrupted supply chains, business leaders at davos called for a more integrated approach to global trade or to correspondent on quarter comments . with the world fracturing into different political camps, the west may be losing its footing at the helm of international affairs. still at this year's davos forum, western business leaders made it clear. globalization must not be impeded. we cannot let globalization reverse. i will not leave davos with that thought i will leave with the thought that we will need more collaboration. i'm afraid the risk of a world recession is less than the risk that we are going to walk into the world with more fragmentation. with trade blocks and currency blocks separating what was up to now still an integrated world economy with a conflict in ukraine, bad weather, and inflation all contributing to rising food prices, davis, his worst nightmare appears to be coming to fruition. global trade is being

dramatically affected with malaysia, for example, already halting monthly exports of 3600000 chickens until production stabilizes. while a number of the world's biggest grain exporters like russia and cassock, stand, have restricted oversee sales to protect their domestic markets. after a heat wave ravaged grain output in india and prices shot sky, high new deli band, private sector grain exports altogether. some experts say india is even thinking of doing the same with rice. the government has already imposed restrictions on wheat exports. it's a matter of time when restrictions on rice exports might be considered new. deli denied having any such plans, but rumor has already played its part spreading panic to those who rely on indian rice. i am meeting a lot of rice importers at a trade fair. everyone has a concern that they are getting feedback from indian suppliers that the government is going to ban non biz, muddy exports, which is totally incorrect. at the same time,

western officials seem to be confused as to their role and all of this on the one hand, they're decrying the idea of a globalized world and defending multilateralism. multilateralism works it also a prerequisite for stopping the d globalization that we are experiencing while on the other. they continue to shower key of with money and weapons, prolonging one of the biggest current catalysts of de globalization, the ukraine conflict. the unprecedented anti russian sanctions regime has also forced independent countries to dig their trenches deeper with there are more and more countries in the world that want to have their own independent policy. and no global policeman can stop this natural global process. so with western political and financial leaders continuing to tow the tough guy line, they may have to consider a new path less. they continue to report they so or that doesn't for me this hour, i'll be back. not look at your weekly in about, say, 31 minutes. you're watching international student.

ah. a spring 2022. europe began closing ports to russian vessels, one after another. they sanctions package bombs, russian flags, vassals from entering you port, belgium, bulgaria, mania. romania. lee announced that there would be close to russian ships. russian vessels carrying. guess i'll call a covers visor is similar decision was taken by canada and later by the united states. ah ah

ah, siberia is a very young nuclear powered ice breaker finishing touches completed. she leaves the baltic shipyard and set sail for her new home port of a shell. immediately go to work in the arctic oceans, leading marine convoys through the ice. a promotion with dish good promotional villa. even again, what i'm hoping for so long are you local issue who is part of a woman's position? a projected sheet is already somewhat early, but she was was wrong. of course. going to leave when she was gonna leave us your order. a lunch for family are about to show up until the letter from chicago, virginia. you much can a hold of someone in the afternoon for me to talk to you about.
