the program. over germany has become the latest country to promise another batch of miniature 8 ukraine. just the olaf sholtes has pledged to supply modern air defense systems to the country. when, when it comes to wrong in the coming weeks, we will also deliver more weapons. for example, the government has decided that we will send the iris t system in the most modern system that germany currently possesses. we are thus enabling ukraine to protect an entire major city from russia, airstrikes. and that is also a decision of this government. was you just heard the weapon system is called the iris t. it's comes in the form of a short range, missiles ground based defense system. but it's, by the chance this promise is the german defense ministry, is that it doesn't actually have the weapon in stock. when asked about the delivery of the weapons, a defense minister spokesperson couldn't give a clear answer. that is a question that is ultimately directed at industry because we don't have these systems in use here. that is not
11:02 pm
a question that i can answer for the german minister of defense on because we don't have these systems in our inventory. it really is surprising that he would make that statement without checking with his defense experts. you know, i don't, i don't understand it other than he's responding again to pressure from that he's receiving politically and he wants this to go away. i think the problem for germany it's really planning for the next 78 months into the next winter. if they have high all prices, if they don't have access to, to russian, oil and gas. this is a political problem. this becomes a german domestic political problem that, that he has to be preparing for. and maybe he just wants this external pressure from the u. s. from nato, to go away. let's deal with this so he can focus on what's coming. meanwhile, the u. k. as opposed to the also putting to provide ukraine with further military age is negotiated with the u. s. on the supply of american multiple rocket launcher

systems. voice johnson agreed on the new military package with joe biden, with negotiations continuing between foreign sexual trust. and secretary of state's anthony blinking. now, this comes after washington agreed to send a new $700000000.00 military, a package to ukraine, including advanced us made rocket launches, also known as the highmark system. the launcher con fi rock is capable of hitting targets. it's a 300 kilometers away, but joe biden refused to provide these munitions saying he doesn't want kids military to be able to fight, to be able to fire them into russia. there's only agreed than rockets with a maximum range of 8 to kilometers. but that could still be enough for ukraine to hit russian territory. if i did a border, us state secretary says the key has promised that it will not use american weapons to target russia. weapon systems being provided, the ukrainians have given us assurances that they will not use the systems against targets on russian territory. there is

a strong trust bond between ukraine in the united states. europe, all official, catherine of all recently said that the organization is concerned over the fates of western arms in ukraine as they could fall into the wrong hands. what also concerns us as the whereabouts of the weapons that are currently being delivered to ukraine . at some point, the war will be over. we want to prevent a situation like 30 years ago in the bulk and war. the weapons from this war are still used by criminal groups today. karen crept calls k for me, u. s. air force returning kernel outline from the consequences of supply ukraine with large amounts of weaponry. in fact, the weapons themselves may not be delivered for a long time, may never be delivered. and certainly, if you look at it in the context of the great number of the great variety of antique and in process weapons that are being sent into ukraine, you really have to wonder what is that, what is the objective here? because that is not how you are a nation to defend itself by giving all your left overs in the stuff that you have
11:05 pm
from you know, 20 years ago. and then things you don't have even on hand. you're promising. it's a mass and we're making it more of a mass. many of these weapons will be sold outside of ukraine. if they're delivered at all, they will not stay in ukraine. they will be used in access to by any number of interested parties around the world. there are consequences to flooding a place like ukraine, which is strategically located for, you know, in the crossroads between europe and asia to, to flood it with weapons like that. a while focusing on foreign policy in ukraine or western officials. since we are less attentive to matters in their own states, thus, as some of the approval ratings have dropped dramatically declined archie contributor ritual marson, explains. western leaders frequently point out their unity amid the conflict in ukraine. but they're also united in their taking popularity at home. british prime

11:09 pm
fire is human rights commissioner imparts for spreading on verified information about atrocities she alleged to were committed by russian troops in the country. removal comes after allegations were widely covered in the western media. ortiz broadcast, fee of explains day a nice week sod end month after month. the world over was barraged with stories horrific stories of rape and unspeakable acts committed, allegedly, by russian forces in ukraine. such acts of violence, raping children little girls, 11 years old, repeatedly in front of their mother's or repeat piping their mothers and friends the children with each day more and more credible reports of re killing sir, torture, our merchant, if you soon shoot you hundreds of cases of rape have been recorded, including under age girls, very young children and even a baby. it's just a scary to talk about it. but it's true,
11:10 pm
it happened. women and girls right now are facing the worst kind of fear and violence. and we know already i'm from the analysis that have been done. they've been the victims of not just murder and rape by kidnapping. many of these stories grew to be unbelievable. and that's not a figure of speech. people including ukrainian officials and the government stopped taking them seriously. they became an embarrassment. so ludicrous were some of the oh go. the woman behind these stories, nude, nila denise of a who was ironically, ukraine's human rights commissioner was fired a year before her term was officially up the unclear focus of the ombudsman media work on the numerous details of sexual crimes committed in an unnatural way and rape of children in the occupied territories that could not be confirmed by evidence, only harmed ukraine. her stories became so ridiculous that even members of the
11:11 pm
ukrainian media, which, which itself isn't war propaganda mode intervened. 18, i'm journalists together with $51.00 lawyers and human rights activists. and others penned an open, let cooling on her to dial it down. that the graphic stories published by about months old douglas being raped with a variety of objects to royal up the people that this was a productive or, you know, decent sexual crimes during the war or a tragedy of families. a difficult and traumatic topic. not a topic for publications. in the spirit of the scandalous chronicle. we are forced to trust the official information that comes from officials in a state of martial law a priori. we do not have the opportunity to verify it from other sources. in this way, we are spreading messages from the commissioner for human rights, in fact, taking them on faith as centrally. they asked that the stick to things that
11:12 pm
actually happened. all of these stories can be tracked back to denisa and that seem most specifically the social media posts made by them. and that's where all the trailed stop, almost all of her raped claims. se ukrainian journalists are without evidence or witnesses, despite her own less than honest approach. denise, her has been a vocal proponent for an international criminal tribunal to apparently bring russian troops to justice for things that she had. ly, the bath, i think we should look at yugoslavia and rolanda. these are the examples that we all know about. there is the un international court of justice and the international criminal court. we need to push for the creation of a special tribunal laterally. the niece of a has been blind to verify reports and footage of ukrainian troops murdering, torturing and mutilating brushing prisoners of war and even ukrainian civilians
11:13 pm
deemed to be pro russia and get the human rights apparently. but these telling isn't it, when you own politicians who are bent themselves on making the russians seem as terrible as possible, that they fly for being simply too outrageous. below the i spoke to steve gill, radio host on political common sites. he says he hopes, western media, we more objective in coverage in the future. you know, the allegations that this lady was putting out there were horrific. what's even more horrific as if they were just outright wise and intended to create a propaganda scheme that would drive people up and, and created an anti russia mentality around the world. again, based on lies, there are plenty of reasons to question the invasion to question what ukrainians have done in the war as well. but there's been so much propaganda that you know, getting the truth out has been almost impossible. but i do think you're starting to see some recalculation in the u. s. media, at least amongst to be
11:14 pm
a little more skeptical of the stories and the propaganda. it's been pushed out. and again, as, as in this case, just been repeated without any verification or any basis of truth. we saw that with the i suppose it ukrainian soldiers who had had mock a russian warship and they were supposed to all wiped out, turned out not to be true. you saw with the ghost pilot ukrainian fighter pilot had shot down a dozen russian fighter jets turned out not to be true. and yet the u. s. media and other world meet you just repeated those things ad nauseam. hopefully we're starting to see the truth start to eat out of bed and, and perhaps maybe he'll not only the reputations of those countries involved, but also the journalist who've been either duped or been complicit. oh yes. according to the un 60 general antonio gutierrez, the unfolding global few crises, cannot be solved without supplies from russia, ukraine, and was wanting comes amid further delays of vital shipments to all the regions, including africa. we need quick and decisive action to ensure
11:15 pm
a steady flow of food and energy in open markets by lifting export restrictions, allocating surpluses and reserves to those who need them, and addressing food price increases to com. market volatility at the moment we are seeing is massive. rising food insecurity in africa, we've heard now from the african union, the head of the union saying that, you know, there is a catastrophic situation that could enfold across many countries, particularly on the continent. he said that they're already there. 17000000 people in food insecurity in just 3 countries, including in ethiopia. and he says that for him, it is clear what is causing this issue at the moment. our countries are very concerned about the side effects of the disruption caused by the payment system being blocked by swift over sanctions. when the swift system is interrupted, it means that even if products are available, the payment becomes difficult or impossible. when you look at the figures across the world, it's even stark than that some $323000000.00 people are said to be marching towards
11:16 pm
food insecurity. at the current time, there was the western reaction. so all this, we know that the european union is very clear that it believes that the problems have been caused by blockades of ports on the black sea. it says that russia is doing that. russia is essentially terrorizing or black mailing people when it comes to issues around food at the current present. ursula vandalay and is saying that, you know, it's those blockades which are the problem. and the fact that russia is apparently, she says, putting mines in the ukraine in whitfield. russia is not only blocking the export of export of ukrainian wheat. it is bombarding warehouses where wheat is stored deliberately. of course, you know that they are also mining the fields where ukraine could have the next harvest of corn. and i want to be very clear. we have no sanctions and
11:17 pm
food and agricultural products, no sanctions on that. some people said, how is it possible for russia to put minds in fields when it hadn't already managed to get at that point in ukraine? so there's a question about how that is happening. and of course, as russia is increasing its territorial gains, why would it also want to increase territorial gains in fields that have mines in? surely, that would be a danger for it. soldiers to we have is this dire situation? a dire global situation has surely it's within everyone's interests to lift some of these sanctions and get this food out. well, that's what russia has been calling for. it says if you do that, we will be able to end some of these blockades. but we know already that there are also the european union to introduce another round of sanctions at present. so landscape quain addressing european leaders early this week said we need a settle package of sanctions that could possibly include russian gas. and. and that could be even more catastrophic. the reality is what needs to happen is for
11:18 pm
the west will ukraine and russia to get around the table and make an agreement to allow the shipments of grain and also fertilizer to, to be able to leave those ports in the black sea african affairs. unless lawrence freeman believes the west has done little to help african countries to avoid farming. instead focusing on blaming russia. hunger existed before either colgate or the russian ukraine conflict. but the primary cause for the shortage of food in africa and hunger is the lack of development. and this has been going on for decades and western institutions, europe, united states, have done nothing to actually hunger. the left has been totally hypocritical, millions and millions and millions of people going hungry and dying in africa. the united states were turned back on africa because it
11:19 pm
will develop to me easier to critical state. blaming the food shortage in russia is false. this is critical because it doesn't tell the truth about which one after the decade west is going to when people in africa back the u. s. may send letters. we're showing companies concerned about sanctions affecting product exports from russia. your officials highlighted that russian grain unfertilized exports aren't directly sanctioned. with shipping and insurance companies are concerned. there's other sanctions, could impact them if they facilitate. green exports. russia and ukraine accounts for nearly a 3rd of global wheat supplies. and it's oil director of reactionary times julio rivera believe the u. s. officials have to lift sanctions in order to alleviate the global few crisis. it doesn't make a lot of sense. the sanctions were so wide spread, you know, as far as our why didn't sweeping that it makes it difficult for american companies
11:20 pm
to know whether or not they're going to be in violation of those sanctions. should they do business with russia? so i think that's a lot of the confusion that was set there by the united states government when they and the governments around the world when they actually impose a lot of these things. and i think that they're going to have to clarify or either start to lift some of the sanctions. i mean, the rest of the world needs to eat. i mean that fertilizer that we, that core and all those things are very vital to the world. so we're gonna have to figure out a new way to get around. a lot of these impose sanctions. this become almost a livable in the united states. i mean, the cost of living is so high. there's so many americans living from check to check . they have to make a decision as to whether they're going to put gas in their car or whether they're going to put food on their table. and that's unfortunately something that a lot of americans are facing. now. the u. s. president unusual is prime minister of expressed concern over china intentions to expand its influence in the pacific region. now, since the authorities held a meeting in washington on tuesday,
11:21 pm
we note with concern the security agreement between the peoples republic of china and the solomon islands. the establishment of a persistent military presence in the pacific by a state that does not share our values. our security interests would fundamentally alter the strategic balance of the region and pose national security concerns to both our countries. the u. s. and new zealand have raised the alarm over the reef insecurity parts between china and the solomon islands. the state secured the agreement back in april, despite opposition for washington and camera focuses on boosting. the solomon's national security capacity. also giving china the option to send these forces to the states, to protect the safety of chinese personnel and major projects and the u. s. and i've, i've been concerned about the prospect of chinese bases in the region in a bit to count to china in the pacific. the u. s. wants to place intermediate range missiles there. however, new reports by the run corporation claims washington allies in the pacific are unlikely to host the weapons for the united states and japan is apparently the most likely to agree to those proposals. even sophia has little chance of supporting the
11:22 pm
move. thus, according to that think tank, let's cross live now to nelson wong, vice chairman of the shanghai center for impact and international studies, unvil day club experts. welcome to the program nelson. thank you not. why do you think the u. s. is so concerned about expanding chinese influence in the pacific region where i think it's not so much of a china is in, in the pacific region. but more of the us, the united states needs to have an enemy. and, and this is quite warri some actually to the whole world because china is not in the expansionist country and has never done anything wrong. never bullied, and the country never seek to change any government of any country. all china has been doing is to expand the country's economy, economic activities, doing business with different countries. and the,
11:23 pm
the recent visit of our foreign minister, 210 countries in the pacific islands actually shows exactly what china is due at the moment. so i think this is a china threat as being fabricated to serve the needs of the american government and perhaps some other interest groups in america. where you say that the american government needs an enemy didn't think it has its hands full with russia at the moment, given the current conflicts in ukraine. well that's, that's quite interesting actually because russia has already been taken as a nanny and now the focus is on china. this is wrong. they're trying to alienate countries like china and russia. why? because i think we are living in this 21st century. and countries need to work together. all governments need to work together to promote peace and development
11:24 pm
for the people, for all the countries around the world. instead of just, you know, having one country calling the shots. this is wrong. do you feel shifting balance of power in the world at the moment with russia obviously, you know, looking to improve relations further with china and india and other countries in that region? well, absolutely. it's, the whole world is changing and that's for sure. the only thing that never gets changed is changing itself. so the u. s. s. do the most powerful country in the world about an upcoming countries upcoming powers like russia, china, india, and the you are also coming onto the world stage as major players. so i think all the major players of the, of the whole world need to come together to talk. and this is where diplomacy comes
11:25 pm
into play. and, and talking of diplomacy, drinks by the washington will apply certain amounts of pressure to its allies in the pacific region. so maybe distance themselves from beijing. well, i think you just mentioned early the recent report by the rand corporation, it was quite to like actually it actually discussed about the proposed the u. s. deployment of the missiles in these countries. and so the conclusion from that report that research was that almost none of them is interested in that. and it's not, not because they are afraid of that, but a, but because they don't want to lose economic ties with china. because these proposed a missile deployment is actually aiming, containing china. so it actually shows countries in the
11:26 pm
region do not take china as an enemy and do not take china as a threat. well, nelson wong, vice chairman of the shanghai center for impact and international cities. thank you very much for joining us today. how not to international thank you. thank you. ah, i run accuses us of destroying world trade and undermining international relations as washington receives the cargo from an iranian oil tanker that was seized on the great coast back in april by athens. those george had in the united states is the biggest destroyer of free trade. it is the biggest destroyer of global economic rules for finance, investment and international trade. the u. s. uses the dollar as a weapon and turns it into a tool to interfere in every aspect of the global economy. that what the u. s. has done is wreaking havoc to world relations response to seizure of the rainy in san kits. hereon sees to greek flight oil tankers last friday in the persian gulf. in
11:27 pm
separate statements by the 4 ministries, greece, germany, and france, criticize the seizure of the tank is byron calling. it's a violation of international regulations. us join them in accusing around of posing threats to maritime stability. barrens continued harassment of vessels and interference with navigational rights and freedoms are a threat to maritime security and the global economy. we heard from professor said mohammed miranda from the university of surround who claims at western countries are the ones responsible for the global energy courses. it is extraordinary that the united states, on the one hand, has created a major global economic crisis by not only sanctioning iranian oil and gas, but also been as where the oil and gas and now russian oil and gas. and everyone is wondering why is the global economy in such a dangerous situation. and now,
11:28 pm
after doing all that, the united states carries out theft. it carries out an act of piracy, in order to hurt iran. but what it is doing in reality is it's forcing the price of oil to go up. the iranians benefit from this situation. the iranians retaliated that further benefits the situation, the more instability there is, the higher the price of oil and the worse it is for the u. s. and the u economies. so they're the ones responsible for pushing up the price of oil and gas because of all the sanctions that the place on different countries. and for the piracy that they can carry out, the ryans are only seizing these tankers in order to prevent the europeans and americans from carrying out further acts of theft, the rop at 6 30 am moscow time to head over to our website for more on any of those
11:29 pm
stories finance be just call somebody back again at the top of the hour with another one done of all the latest news headlines. ah ah ah . so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy, even foundation, let it be an arms race is on offense. very dramatic development. only personally
