a crime scene, metal performance or something like that. and then we got that with a brush opens a car door to evacuate civilians from a chemical plant in the embattled city of several done yet as guns claims more than a 1000 may be held by ukrainian forces. there were dozens of women here in this maturity into the hospital. when the shelling began, we explored maternity. all still in done, yet stroked by ukrainian forces for a daughter stayed to look after a baby born prematurely while the building was being shelled. so the doctor saw the scheme we had developed over the past 8 years, stays near blind moments of danger, ready to cover the babies with their own bodies if needed. but they used to be so

met in australia, coals on china to lift damaging trade boy called both 1st, beijing demands that it's grievances are addressed. and thousands of high ranking participants are gathering in st. petersburg for a key russian international business for the kicks office wednesday. with watching our t international mon is peter scott. i'm ready joining us from welcome to 30 minutes of news and analysis. intensive fighting continues in. it'll ganske republic. russia has opened a humanitarian car door in the key city of sarah done yet this wednesday allowing civilians to leave a chemical plant where you clean your forces. again. the guns republic authorities say around $1200.00 civilians are being held, their reports to the up to $2500.00 ukrainian military personnel. holdup the plans

in several. danielle, a quarter of which look gun school authorities claim of foreign mercenaries. meanwhile, the gun says ukraine's military has been shutting civilian areas. egos, jobs, visits the scene of one of the attacks. the situation for ukrainian troops here nichol against people's republic is dia. this is something that all sides of the conflict seemed to agree on care of moscow and the international community. and the worse, the more hopeless it gets for the ukrainians here, the more aggressive and deadly they become against civilians against ordinary population of the lugens containers. people's republic, the city of the network itself has recently insured a shilling. it hasn't seen in years right now. i walk amongst the ruins of what used to be a football stadium now obliterated by ukraine's grad rockets and dead bodies have only just yet been extracted from under the rubble. and the key of essentially

is doing its best trying to convince the western audience that the need for and supplied weapons the need for and supplied artillery. but given caves venge fullness given caves, desire and eagerness to take its anger out an ordinary civilians. the longer the west will keep feeding this addiction of care of 2 foreign supplied weapons. the longer this agony will go on and make ash done of reporting from the la ganske people's republic or tea. on monday, the nearest faced what local officials called the worst shelling by ukraine since the conflict started. which 7 people died among the buildings heads was a maternity hostile intensive care units from which this image, which was widely circulated on social media, was allegedly taken. the child is understood to have been born prematurely and so couldn't be disconnected from the ventilator. medical personnel remained with the baby, who pulled through an archie crew made their way to the hostel to hey,

what happened any, this could any monsoon there were. so babies in the intensive care unit, one of whom, in the rather serious condition, was placed on the ventilator. the rest also needed oxygen supply, so it was impossible to move them into the basement. so the doctor's followed the scheme we had developed over the past 8 years and stayed near by in moments of danger, ready to cover the babies with our own bodies if needed. i am on the roof of the maternity hospital that was shown by the ukrainian military. one of the rockets landed right here, making a huge hole in this roof. now this top floor is completely destroyed. there were dozens of women here in this missouri into hospital when the shilling began. this delivery room, in particular, one woman was here and ready to give her birth. and when i artillery frock, all the windows were immediately blown out. the walls,

the windows were shaking. we ran to the basement and spend the night there. women were giving birth right in the basement. some were undergoing surgery. of course, it was scary when you move this were relying here on the floor. all of us pregnant were crying. you had a nervous breakdown. this building will now be forced to close to be closed until further notice and they will evacuated or continue serving a women given birth. elijah had your, i'm sure, leave occasion when's calmly because the staff has learned how to behave in such a situation. so they managed to cope as always, what i want to say is that this is the place where children, when you lives a bond and mother doesn't give birth to her sons, to send them to war, all the cruelty that we have seen over 80 years, mary opened another citizen, humane for the sole reason that the 21st century human life is not valued. this months are in the hospital. now lies almost sir, in ruins, very close, very near and dear to my heart,

and so my camera man as well. this is where his son was born 4 years ago, and my god daughter was born here as well. so it's very painful to see what happened here. rushes reduced gas supplies to europe by the node stream one pipeline, citing a delay in work performed by siemens energy. as a german company failed to install repaired equipment on time due to the sanctions imposed by canada. it is currently impossible for seaman's energy to deliver over whole gas turbines to the customer. against this background, we have informed the canadian and german governments and a working on a viable solution. all north stream one typically supplies germany with about 167000000 cubic meters of russian gas a day via the baltic sea. but russia state energy company, gas prom. it says that it's going to be reducing that to 100000000 cubic meters. and that's because the german energy company, siemens has failed to deliver on time a number of

a very important gas pumping units. they were under repair. now, a main compression station along the pipeline that we're talking about here. kim not can only use 3 out of 8 gas pumping units. that means, of course, less gas going through the pipeline and less gas going to europe also in pipes. do you think this will have in europe? obviously there is a bit of a, an energy crisis. the prices are spiking. well, with the lower supply, germany's gas prices have already skyrocketed by the double digits. i mean, in terms of europe's benchmark gas price. we, we saw a 16 around 16 percent rise, and in the u. k, we saw around an 11 percent rise and the gas price. but these figures are, of course high. but it's actually the 1st time that russian gas has been obstructed from going to europe. i mean, last month, ukraine also closed the taps on an on quite a bit of russian gas going through the surrounding of gas measuring station. that's because he said that the russian military operation was obstructing the regular

functioning of that station. but gas from responded by saying that basically that couldn't be farther from the truth. so it looks like these sanctions, the canada is imposed on russia on exactly helping the already the problems that europe is already experiencing with his gust supplies. well yeah, i mean, this is just another episode in the west shooting itself in the foot with its continued sanctions. i mean, ever since russia special miller operation began several months ago, a number of e u countries have been trying to reduce their dependence on russian gas and a, believe it or not, a lot of these countries actually have not been able to come to a consensus on a possible gas embargo because as you said, a lot of these countries are so dependent on russian gas that it would throw them into an even deeper energy crisis than they're already in. so at any rate, it looks like these canadian sanctions that we're talking about here might already be accomplishing that goal because less gas going to europe. i mean,

that's so bad for the entire continent, especially if gas from can provide it after supporting to global sanctions against others. cambra is getting a taste of its own medicine. use trillion prime ministers called on beijing to lift trade boycotts, improve relations does as he prepares for the 1st talks with a chinese minister in almost 2 years with amazing things aren't quite simple. china and australia have been attempting to reset their relationship. beijing is can bras, largest trading partner, but diplomatic relations have soured. the rift emerged in 2020 with dispute service, such issues as foreign interference, the coven 19 outbreak and chinese investment. by 2021, china hit several australian industries with economic sanctions. now the newly elected australian prime minister is asking for those measures to be lifted. it is china that has imposed sanctions on australia. they need to remove those sanctions

in order to improve relations. for beijing though things aren't that simple. it's listed 14 grievances that need to be addressed. gotcha. raw growth to improve china australia relations. there is no auto pilot mode. the reset requires concrete actions. the ice may have been slightly cracked with defense ministers from the countries hosting their 1st meeting in 3 years. but it's still rock solid. tensions are also high of the solomon islands. china says australia is promoting us, lead competition in the region. australia says it's concerned about a possible chinese military base there. in response to longstanding issues, china has placed sanctions in the form of hefty tariffs on products such as wine and barley from australia. we will not allow any country to re benefits from doing business with china well ground as the accuser and smear in china and undermine in

china's core interests based on ideology. it seems the pressure has all been a bit too much with the new government saying it's time to ease off. we would certainly like to see those sanctions in those tariffs lifted their damaging our economy. they're making life harder for some of our employers and workers here in australia. and so obviously we would like to see those measures lifted clearly. no matter who you are. sanctions aren't welcome. when your on the receiving end miss handling the tie. one situation on threatening china's national unity will have a detrimental impact on beijing us relations when that's the latest warning from chinese officials to the u. s. counterpart falling a face to face meeting and look some back to taiwan. question effects the political foundation of china us relations. it will have disruptive impacts if it's not appropriately handled, any attempt to obstruct or undermine china's national unity will be doomed to fail . the tensions between china and the u. s. helping escalating since president biden

said, washington would defend taiwan if china with the launch and attack. also, beijing has declined to support western functions pushed by the u. s. against russia. with a continue trade between china, moscow meeting the effects those sanctions were meant to deliver this cans as china's national currency. the u on has strengthened up to the i. m f. increased its holdings, making it the 3rd largest, holding in the official reserves, and that's behind the euro. and the dollar b, u. r. has seen growing using cross board international payments between trading partners. reflecting is such as a top currency director of the geopolitical economy. research group, radhika decided, says the use of the chinese currency will only expand in the future. china has been working this very interesting, very balanced approach that it's been taking as far as china is concerned. it can continue to expand the use of the, remember for trade, for investment, and for also other productive uses. so china is fine as far as the united states is

concerned. it's in big trouble with the sanctions against russia. it's pushing china and russia closer together. and so there's increasing evidence that you on is also good, is, you know, basically the russians increasingly becoming part of the chinese payment system. the ruin of course, has trend. so increasingly increasing russia, china trade will essentially offset any damage that, that, that the west is doing. to the russian economy and, and at the same time, by putting sanctions and countries like russia, the united states is preventing and of course putting everybody else on notice that their money is no longer safe. the sanctions by further recognizing the dollar this time against a systemically important country like russia, it's only going to undermine the dollar more because you know already for the last 2 decades, people have been wanting don't recognize the dollar. you are going to want to mind

in the dollars system, whether the united states seems to be, you know, has gone, i hadn't done it anyway. so this is what you get for doing that. versus key international economic forum kicks off is wednesday in st. petersburg with thousands of a piece from over $141.00 countries worldwide, a currently gathering for the 3 day event. it's easily a trunk of 6, a sneak peak when russia is supposed to be boycotted by everyone in every possible aspect. well, that's what these people want. the new world order to be like the nation still goes for it. it goes for hosting a big international business gathering. it's called the st. petersburg international economic form. it's been happening every summer for 25 years. $140.00 countries are taking part and it's always been a chance for russia's businessmen and government officials to showcase rushes full

potential and also lower investment. so what's happening this year? nobody's coming. and the st. petersburg rain. you know, it's famous, doesn't make it more pleasant. let's have a look at the venue. mm. well, the vibe is quite usual when you see all these bright cool monitors around you representing top russian companies. you always feel like you're part of something very promising. modern full of energy, the main days of the form have not begun yet. okay. the leaders of the likes of friends or japan are not coming even though they have taken part in previous years . but mr. brewton is welcoming the presidents of, for example, catholic, stan,

or armenia, which are considered watches, friends, and are part of a you ration, economic integration block which has taken ties in the european union as an example. and indeed, times of embargoes and boy cause rushes really counting on friends like that. it's in our common interest to stimulate trade and investment. courage, joint technology development, strengths and financial in stock markets increase the sheriff settlements and national currencies. it is important to introduce and develop truly mutual beneficial integration models as it is already being done in the space of the regime economic union. right. a few seconds ago you heard vladimir putin mentioned something that's usually called d dollar. arising giving up the u. s. dollar in transactions with russia's partners is something that's often widely discussed here in saint petersburg. the moto of this year's form is new world, new opportunities. that's exactly the essence of the event. russia is trying to

turn sanctions, actually the effect of sanctions into new opportunities. the anniversary meeting is taking place at a difficult time for the entire international community. the long term mistakes of western countries in economic policy and illegitimate sanctions have led to a wave of global inflation to the destruction of the usual logistics and production trans. and to a sharp increase in poverty and food shortages. but as it happens, prospects open up along with challenges every year at the st. petersburg, international economic form, one country as awarded the status of a special privileged guest. and this year, it's the turn of egypt, the land of the pyramids. the number one event at the form is happening on friday, june, the 17th that is called the plenary session. and this is where almost exactly 4

months after russia's operation in ukraine began. vladimir potent together was his counterparts, will weigh in on everything that happened around the world and in russia, in these 12 weeks stay tuned. mm oh, the u. s. president joe biden is facing a backlash online up to saying he doesn't want to hear complaints about skyrocketing consumer prices or the earth inflation rates hitting a 40 year high. i don't want to hear any more. he's la reckless for change people's law to that. twitter was quicker is gone with many users pointing out that the change bite in his taking credit for is not for the better. he's changing people's lives. that's a fact by turning america into a 3rd world country. i'll take the american people aren't buying this talking point

for $5000.00. man who caused the problem angry. you don't like his problem. in addition to blaming those former president trump and republicans in congress for 40 year high inflation binding. again, trying to claim that soaring gas prices were russia's fault. i'm never there. my power to blood couldn't gas price. i just said she and very ukraine has got up a $1.74 gala because of nothing else. with that, however, users on twitter were quick to point out the hypocrisy with some comparing bindings, current statements to his tweets while trump was in office. the president needs to stop blaming others and do his job. it's hard to believe that this has to be said, but unlike this precedent, i'll do my job and take responsibility. i won't blame others, and i'll never forget the job isn't about me. it's about you. why this,

this latest rant reminded me of a, of a child putting his hands over his ears, going now now now i don't want to hear that the criticisms are valid. the facts are clear. he has not done everything much less anything to blunt. the price increases in the oil industry. in particular, the problem is joe by doesn't want to do anything to fix the problems that he's created because he would have to back up on the things that he has done by inflation is, is the real issue. it's, it's at a 40 year high and growing as, as the numbers show, gas prices were spiking from the moment that joe biden took office. and now he's trying to find anybody and everybody to blame instead of the buck stops here. he's the buck stops everywhere, but here president, ah, another news off to algeria suspended a corporation treats with spain. madrid has claimed that russian influence was behind the decision. and does his b. chi fell back down that algeria was more and more aligned with russia for this

decision to suspend the treaty, didn't surprise me. algeria has suspended the friendship and corp treaty after 2 decades, going as fast upon old non gus trade. it comes amid escalating tensions between algeria, morocco, over disputed territory in the western sahara with spain bucking morocco's claim to the land. a jury is one of spain's main supplies of natural gospel. last year i'll just shuts off its pipeline supplies, 3 morocco leaving spain with just one direct link which it counts on for continued gust supplies. a diplomatic route between the 2 countries has escalated after spain made an abrupt you turn and sided with morocco in the long run in conflict over western sahara. the move sent shock waves through the algeria increments instead of tensions between the trading partners. previously, madrid had been neutral in the dispute been the openness of baltimore conservancy, of the contested area on african north west coast. we spoke with the fact

that madrid has chosen aside is not conducive to resolving the conflict doberman in spain has made its choice. it does not want to have problems with the area, but given the circumstances of shifting geo politics, they chose a different path. it's a frozen conflict. there's no other issues. there's no other solution so far that was deem credible and possible, but the one that was suggested by the government and, and frankly speaking, i believe that even though spain has chosen the path, i don't think that the conflict will be resolved any time soon because it's still within the city council, at the web has been going on for decades now, says the independence and mostly during the cold war with the other logical alignment that angie with the east and camp and morocco, the western camp, and no one really managed to be hit germanic in the region. so i think it's high time that both countries rethink this policy of competition and they will be

stronger together. the war in ukraine drags all nato's capacity is being called into question with the block, sending large amounts of weapons to key if some are starting to us just how long they can keep it up or to contribute to rachel marston explains is some conflict in ukraine inadvertently disposing nato's vulnerabilities. mathematically, if you add up the known fire are of all new member countries. delight should theoretically be able to talk any foe, indirect on conflict. but there ukrainian venture suggests that the reality could be a lot nastier. beer in union chief diplomat, joseph burrell said that if a similar conflict to the one in ukraine broke out any you, it's member states would only have enough ammunition for 2 weeks. meanwhile, washington center for strategic and international studies asked in april whether america supply of jollin missiles for ukraine would run out before rush around the

tanks. according to the white house factsheet, the united states has provided 2000 stingers to the ukrainians. the united states has sent about a quarter of its inventory to ukraine. the bottom line is that the russians are not going to run out of armored vehicles anytime soon. forest is also pointed out, you cranes demand for american stinger angela. this is outstripping their production. you know, might think it has a great strategy for direct confrontation with russia. but poor logistics can ruin everything. production of weapons can take years to ramp up. western experts say, and weapons stockpiles are just sitting around, waiting for a full year war to break out. they also point out that security rushes, air defense systems, the major threat to native pilots in the head matcher. meanwhile, member countries can't even agree on economy road map for ukraine, france and germany seem to be increasingly angling for an exit route. all nations

on the eastern flank are pushing for more fighting. you was president joe biden said that the united states and its allies will defend every inch of territory of needle countries with the full force of our collective power. and as i made crystal clear, the united states and our allies will defend every inch of territory. that is nato territory for the full or for every single way. but just to let you guys bluster, let's just hope that no one ever has to find out over to mexico. now, where the president's has criticized nato is policy towards the ukrainian conflicts . the comments come just days after he refused to attend a summit for the americas after the house. the u. s. failed to invite the 3 fellow latin american countries. i'll supply the weapons and you supply the dead. it's immoral. how easy it is to say here, i'll send you this much money for weapons. good in the war in the ukraine have been avoided. of course it could. earlier mexico said it would not send arms ukraine on,

refuse to bark sanctions against russia. mexican president has advocates the need for dialogue as a way out of the ongoing conflict between the 2 countries. meanwhile, ukraine house code on western countries to supply more weapons and mid fears and nato suffice. may students, dot to mexico has become the leading latin american challenge to us had germany after washington a through to cuba, venezuela, nicaragua, or 3 the subject of us sanctions from the summits for the americas. historically, the u. s. has been the south america's top trading partner, but he's now facing a new challenge from china. we spoke with the coordinator with the cuban, but as well as the la darcy committee who thinks that latin america is now trying to show opposition to us had too many i believe is more than just queue of venezuela. and you can know whether posing problems for us had gemini, even though a good number of the nations of latin america attended the summit of exclusion of

biden's. they still announced and declared in the summit, they were not happy with what was taken place. and it's a warning, it's a warning from argentina, from other leaders who said, you cannot continue this. the fact that the u. s. was hosting the summit of the americas did not give it the right to decide who belongs mexico, with lopez over is saying, now we speak as a latin american nation as a latin american nation on behalf of all of latin america and the caribbean. and why locus over as the most significant figure refuse to attend the summit of the americas. that will probably have some repercussion. but i think what's happening in latin america, and even in the rest of the 3rd world, is that countries are seen. we don't want to be bullied anymore, and we will act in concert with each other to coordinate more together economically,

politically and reject us had gemini, which doesn't bring any good to those countries. those are the main stories. this our do head over to all t dot com or check out our social media pages for more content. i've just gotten. thank you for watching. ah ah ah

ah, ah aah, ukraine. a big and rich country that's always been hand in hand with russia. until recently, 2014,

a qu divides ukraine and leads to fratricidal war and on a war that continues to this on the edge of a large field near low ganske, the mass grave. local say that the people buried here are mostly civilians who are allegedly killed by ukrainian paramilitary groups in the summer of 2014 or does this, i missed it quite a bit of stuff, but because that means it would be to when the british start. okay. what's don't cry said things of a sudden form you not said anna saralitos special.
