this, i don't see how that strategy will be successfully, very difficult. i'm time to sit down and talk ah, no equivalent the in the well vladimir putin give the military update thing. the new to develop saw that inter continental missiles will be put on to see by the end of this year, plus monday that they have to sustain some of the heaviest, shedding that it's saw. here over the last 8 years, we report from ground 0 at the latest ukrainian shelling of don yet impacting just a few feet away from a residential building full of civilian. a few friends president, is the landscape trying to blame russia. the rising food insecurity in the world, the african union, coles on the u. k. e. the sanctions on most good classes,

africa faces are rising hunger crisis as country. the hindu obtaining great and for to life is from russia with very well welcome. this is not the international coming to you live at from moscow . with the latest world headlines, it's good to happy with. the russian president vladimir putin has that the newly developed saw mot, intercontinental ballistic missile systems will be put on duty by the end of this year. he's also emphasized that the russian army has been getting state of the art as 500 air defense systems to both to their capabilities for fending off incoming attacks. y scholarship with our troops are now receiving the brand new as 500 air defense system, which has no equivalence in the world. we've also successfully tested the sarm out intercontinental ballistic missile and are planning to place the 1st such icbm system on combat duty at the end of this year. like mapleton says that the russian

army started receiving the country's news, anti air croft, missile defense system as $500.00. aft 22 killer s 500 is a next generation surface to air missiles system with a range of 600 kilometers, with its radar capable of covering the area of 3000 kilometers. it is designed to intercept and destroy a wide range of targets at the same time, including hypersonic, cruise missiles and south jazz. it is considered today, one of the most advanced in the world. it was successfully tested last july and early in april these here we heard from the had of russia's defense technology company. i'm making it that the system has been put into mass production. also vladimir putin says that soon the russian army will be supplied with super heavy intercontinental ballistic missile sediment known as satan to the sodomite, with a payload of up to 7 and a half mega tons is capable of carrying 10 or more nuclear warheads. and of

striking different targets simultaneously thousands off kilometers away. it is one of 6 brand new strategic weapons russia using to modernize its army with. it was successfully tested just a couple of months ago and is now getting ready to enter the service. russia's military says it has started off an attack on snake island, a strategically important location in the black sea that moscow's forces took on the very 1st day of the conflict. russians defense ministry say that defenses have shut down 13 ukrainian drone croft as well as every message that is targeted the island for think he has forces to cancel a plan. landing operation that moscow stays in american strategic recognizance drone has also been spotted in the region. also admit the conflict, the russian army has a talk to ukrainian military fields near the southern city of a desa destroying to artillery petune that has how it says recently imported from the us. the russian military says it's destroyed about 15 american made how it is

in the past 24 hours. all of them without even being used once in battle elsewhere and the guns group, public officials, the ukrainian artillery forces, a keeping up their intent. shelling of the town of pass naya, with most of the buildings there, and now heavily damaged or completely destroyed and in the capital city of the don't. yes, because we need shelling left for people wounded on monday with some civilian infrastructure. the pony being targeted motion investigators say they're probing what could be considered ukrainian war crimes as a result of the latest attacks. these women cause of reports from don. yes. i'm standing in a crater that was created as a result of ukrainian artillery shells. here in dunn nest on a monday night or is acquired a deep. it is free meters deep. it is 9 meters along an 8 meters wide and it is right next to a residential building here in done as 4 people. 4 people had been wounded

including a kid who is only and 9 years old. thankfully, no one was killed in this attack. but monday, the next sustained some of the heaviest shelling that it saw here over the last 8 years. now civil and infrastructure was damaged. there was a damage to power lines, damage to a water supplies of thousands of people are now without any electricity. and of course the several houses and cars have also caught on fire as ukraine continues to show the city of the nest and its outskirts. yeah, absolutely beautiful whittaker fever. i loved it when the city was beautiful, with trees and flowers everywhere. we planted a few of the trees ourselves, but there they are lying there dying on the ground. thank god, it's not us lying there. a moment. oh,

this is just one of the men who was injured during ukrainian artillery attack on this apartment. he doesn't want to show his face, but so these are the results of the injuries that he sustained here. this is what this apartment complex looks like in its entirety. the russian investigative committee are now working here, making their inquiries and trying to determine the level of a crime that was committed here by the nationalist forces over of ukraine. and obviously this is a war crime because civilian infrastructure and apartment building had been targeted at the moment. so there is no electricity here. no running water as services are trying to clean this place up and make sure it will once again be

livable. remark offer have already done that people's republic. the un voice in moscow claims, there is no intention to blockade russia. western most region of kellen in grad, despite the fact that lithuania has slapped a ban on the transit of sanctioned goods to the enclave. there were some regions governor has started to take measures against the e u. countries transport industry unless the restrictions are lifted are going to be, this is a flagrant violation of the obligations of the you and the baltic states upon their assertion to the union. in my view, this is a challenge to us. we must persuade them diplomatically to resend or amanda this policy and allow us to conduct transit if they fail to do so. we have an enormous number of ways we can complicate the operations of the baltic states trust, but industry. russia has slammed the lithuanian leave as a legal but villainy authorities claim their transit ban on collin in ground is in accordance with the sanctions against russia. the restrictions affects the

transportation of coal, metals, construction materials and advanced technologies also contribute to racial. marsden reports on the issue for people who are so obsessed with their own p r. i'm talking about the u. this is a really bad book. western leaders keep saying how they want russian president vladimir putin. ready pay a price for the call to do you agree, but it's always the average citizens who are paying the price, including westerners. now facie and ami challenges with in the you. now anti russian sections like as iranian sanctions, or as i venezuela, sanctions, or adviser and sanctions, eccentric center always hit the average person, the hardest. and the idea is that sanctions pressure on citizenship caused them to rise up against their own country's leaders and do the west regime change dirty work, except that people on the sanctions are ultimately imposed, aren't stupid. they know where their country's domestic challenges and, and the impact of foreign interference begins. now the situation with colleen and

grad would be like canada, preventing transit between alaska and the rest of the united states. so how do you think washington would tolerate that? but of course, don't anyone dare call this clinic grad situation of blockade? she knew diplomat ge, the grill says it isn't the land and ship between cleaning good at another part of russia has not been stopped north bend, but he's no blockade. he also is splitting hairs on technicalities because in that same speech he also said the indeed and i quote in accordance with european union sanctions, there are import and export restrictions that apply in relation with certain goods, including the prohibition of transit from those goods through the european union territory. now he's all caught up in whether or not what they're doing is legal. and he's bowing to ensure of course that it is, but by then it might be too late. all this might be over. who knows, right?

just because something is technically legal, you know, maybe it's that hard to understand under, to explain and split hairs. maybe you should be doing it at all, especially if you want to be in line with your own per claim values. you know, you're rushing up to conflict claiming to want peace and then using the people who could grab as pas sure. go ahead and say that there's technically no blockade. and maybe you are technically in the right ask for international law or whatever. it's so confusing, it's hard to know. i mean, nobody really knows right now they're looking into it right. the people of clinic grad and the reality will be the ultimate judge of what that's worth. what happened to those western values of human rights? by the way, do they apply to russians in killing rod elsewhere? it's you or only when they're not standing in the way of a powerplay to further western interest, in which case, well, you know, they're just shrugged office collateral damage with europe. already eating into his wince, a gas reserves which all supposed to be top top during the summer. they were paying commissions president has insisted that the you can cope without wash and supplies

of the commodity. energy efficiency and energy saving play an important role. if we reduce the heating temperature to degrees on average in europe or that of air conditioning, europe would replace the entire supply of note stream. meanwhile, about 80000 people attended a protest in brussels on monday to see count against the quickly rising cost of living. transpose strikes effect to the cities may nap, horse and other transit hubs throughout belgium, bringing public travel from those locations to an air standstill. inflation has been estimated at 9 percent this month as sanctions against russia have disruptive supply chains all over the continent, making regular people pay exorbitant price is the choices of their leaders. i came here to defend purchasing power of the citizens because demonstrating is the only way to make change. we cannot cope any more, even with 2 salaries as we have on the medical teacher. both of us are working and we can not get our head above water. we must increase our purchasing power. whether

you love you off is becoming more and more difficult gasoline hidden fuel. if will lower the taxes to 6 percent on what tricity and gas, it will then make the population happier. the nation won't suffer. oh, for the moment, after covered with the war in ukraine and others, workers concerns the government isn't facing our desires and wishes. we should be able to negotiate a fair salary with companies and we believe it's possible by a senior research fellow at the global policy institute, george, sammy, will you say that you, you should be ashamed of his current energy policies? well, they're always focused on. 1 trying to roster, and that was does the lead raise the question? i mean, who do these politicians represent? you're supposed to have elected leaders who are elected by the people. do you actually care about your own people about your own voters? whatever else you can say about europe. yeah, you know,

we've got wealthy states that can look citizens, essentially, europeans and now admitting that we're heading towards a winter in which people are going to get very cold. ready and in many cases, quite congress. this is an absolute shame and a disgrace for europe. the energy crisis is 4th, and you need is to take drastic measures to keep that taxpayers and voters warm for several countries. now restarting and lifting restrictions on the use of coal power plants, which means europe green energy agenda is literally going up in flames. verzati shot deep sky explains the headlines. a clear russia's so called gas war on the e. u is pushing. no, it's forcing europe to go back to burning. one of the dirtiest fossil fuels around coal once considered black gold. coal had fallen from grace g to its polluting

properties. but as a russian gas deliveries are being squeezed, countries including germany, the netherlands, italy, and austria. oh, all looking to fire a long dormant coal power plants back up. this is painful, but it is a sheer necessity in this situation to reduce gas consumption. but if we don't do it, then we run the risk that the storage facilities will not be full enough at the end of the year towards the winter season. and then we are blackmail level on a political level that almost makes it sound like the e was in fact, keen to keep buying gas from russia. yet the union has signaled the exact opposite . although it still wanted to be the one to decide when the taps were turned off from did he of jake, when it comes to energy, we're working together on how to use the gas resources of the western mediterranean to develop renewable energy. we want to reduce our dependency on russian gas and to accelerate the energy transition in accordance with the climate objectives we have set forward. and while you leaders are blaming the current war in ukraine for the

shift to coal, the move actually came long before february 24th figures show that electricity generated by coal in the u jumped by 19 percent in the last 3 months of 2021 compared to the previous year, all of this is a massive headache for the european commission, which has been pushing the idea of the green, a gender commission chief ursula vaughan delane doesn't want the i taken off the emerald price. we have to make sure that we use this crisis to move forward and to avoid sliding back towards the dirty fossil fuels. it's a fine line and it has not yet been determined whether or not we're going to take the right turn. that may be falling on deaf is though a some eo countries look to capitalize on the return to coal. the check for public says its own energy security trumps the broader green, a gender. if there is

a gas cut this winter, we will burn anything we can to keep our people warm and produce electricity. that's probably not the best stance for the country that's about to assume the rolling e u presidency. you are a pin climate. campaigners are also furious over the move back to coal, but they are also pointing out what they call e hypocrisy. as the union still claims that it wants to be a global climate champion. and as the energy situation grows more dire across the you political leaders and now turning to calling on their taxpayers and voters to conserve energy to cut gas consumption with rationing also said to be on the table . but in the meantime, europe seems to have little choice, but to feed the green agenda to the hungry fires, the dirty coal power plants. russia is supposedly holding africa hostage. that's how the ukranian president vladimir zaleski has described moscow's

relations with the continent amid relentless western sanctions. against russian expos, africa, africa, is actually hosted to those who unleashed war against our state. and it was not for the war against ukraine. there simply would be no shortage of food in the market. people in africa, asia, or in any other country in the world would not be suffering from the catastrophic rise and food prices. the head of the african union has responded by saying, gets committed to a peaceful resolution. but earlier, he caused the western countries to ease payment restrictions on moscow to allow africa to pay for russian goods. it is aggravated by european sanctions on the methods of payment. we want to pay, but it becomes impossible. so we are asking the europeans for the same mechanism as for gas and oil. although russia and ukraine explore nearly a 3rd of the world's wheat and barley grain cannot get out of ukraine until tea, i've cleared his ports of his minds to allow for the safe exports of goods. well, if i have south african senior officially in charge of state statistics,

a thing correct to place the blame on just one country amid the current conditions listed members of regains hooks. this russia would be wrong because africa believes that we will. she should shoot you an opportunity. you wrong lane, russia, her whole, the from shortages where and russia greenage war. and in that war, their luncheon that to walk among them by glaring beach. but he'd come correct. it'll blame one, come to it as though it is the provoker of food shortages. i mean, there, there are sanctions. i got a ballston russia, that's what we're, we're, you will you be yours. so just to just to go, so this is more, don't want to buy your, your, your guess you bad process?

run cheese for production for back to purposes i disrupted the, you have pledged more than 1800000000 euros to help address food insecurity. and several african regions where millions of people on the brink of starvation, however, that humanitarian aid package is less than that than the $2000000000.00 euros that european union countries have already coughed up to san weapons to ukraine. raising questions on whether you use foreign policy priorities really lie. i mean, while despite admitting that more than 1700000 people in south sedan require food assistant assistance to avoid starvation. united nations has suspended humanitarian aid to them. siting a funding crisis caused by the conflict in ukraine, the u. n. c. that must now diversify its food supplies to focus on helping other countries and regions in need. the organizations food program has claimed that it exhausted all alternatives before making the tough decision to slash aid to south sedan. we got reaction from some locals who say the u. s. decision cannot be

justified when so many lives are on the line to how flooding we have economy, con crises, we have a lot of crisis is also done. so as we assess it, any say we need help, we are asking for help. so and then they, you, any though, on who is helping us, who providing us their, their basic needs, if they called this needs, how are we going to survive as associate in these? how are we going to survive? it can never be fair on new people started on, but anyway, be broken up or governmentally. we depend on those systems or other countries. so much dear to tell us what we are frizzing a lot of problems, hunger or no indication our journey. we don't have enough records on our own. so when these are defending what woolforth program there were no contract is a router to put all the people will need more support from the world. the use

member states have reportedly reached a consensus to grounds candidate status. the ukraine, the latest within the block, have caution that it could still be a very long time before ukraine could actually be allowed to join. many different steps have to be taken would have to be taken, but that the moment that symbol of hope to keep the spirit alive is what is needed right now. in crane applied to your candidate status. in february, shortly after russia began his military operation. here his leadership has been seeking to fast track the country's membership process. the status is expected to be confirmed at a meeting of the leaders in brussels. this week was in the words of the president of the commissioners to live on the line expanding the blog would require ditching the current policy of having to reach a consensus for major decisions. we heard from international affairs professor and steven gay tuesdays, recent, your decisions have exposed substantial changes in the block fundamental principles

. the values of the you, i was through a significant change, i would say in the last couple of years and even more so in the last couple of months, of course, this is only 8. well, it's going to raise the states and to draw european societies. i'm say in war psychology, of course, rally them against russia, which won't be the 1st time in history for that to happen. so, so on, on the lamb are really from top to her hawkish rhetoric and last couple of months. and she's talking language ultimatum. and she's not the only one recently, mr. shawls who may be seen as a moderate in me that you mention actually a in serbia as a hawk, as well. he said that serbia must join sanctions and must recognize that even

a it's not a province at the cynicism or it is that it should do that in order to preserve the integrity of the brain for we are cranium. prime minister you lead to michelle, can we is using her political clout to fan the flames of anti russian sentiments in the country, including advertising, a new brand of sausages with the label supporting world war 2 era, nazi collaborators stepping on there and calling for quote, death to russians, blue cross, some of much excellent, the most delicious sausage. this has been era and this is death to russians. they are close in taste and design, and most importantly, in quality. the move if the latest by ukrainian political figure to embrace anti russians. sentiment follows the countries national parliament pausing a law banning russian music and public places. the southern city of nikolai f has even gone as far as to prohibit use of the russian language in schools. the

ukrainian justice minister hospital authorities will soon start confiscating the assets of any one believe to be in cooperation with moscow. and yet, the man, all the predominantly russian speak, ukrainian city of a desert has cautioned against the rise of anti western sentiment. he spoken out against the renaming of pushkin's street which leads to the city hall as he wants to preserve the memory of the renowned 19th century russian. ortho. no, i would not support that. odessa is the intercultural capital of ukraine. i'm worried by the growth of hatred of all things. russian. auth angela thomas roper says ukraine cannot be called a democracy under its current governments. it's just, it's just a joke to quote, ukraine didn't taste ukraine democracy. democracy. this is again, a sign of the russian call, not see a fresh history for this started already long before you started with arresting the leader of the pol mitchell, a position with closing all

a critical media. and these were all things which happen more than a year ago. and western media and political politicians don't want to see that. they just don't want to see who are the heroes of modern ukraine. the west and the west just seems to be blind on that. they don't want to see and either just not comparable with the western values, the european values or the european values, a different of what they are saying of officially. they, thanks for joining us here in our international as a way. there's plenty more news discussion and debate on our website on the dot com with ah,

i mean, with 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 often very dramatic. development only personally and

getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful. very difficult time time to sit down and talk ah, in a while if you talk to her a

boy that pulled up, are you interested or se julia does she somebody over there or still sleep but 0 but she was with talking to have a talk video with you not got a new up. well, let's see above a bunch. so it's a it's
