i that i need to establish something like this, a command center. any place is good enough. even the cemetery on the visit heavily fortified positions abandoned by the ukrainian army. neither of us nigh gods as russian and allied forces continued the mining territories taken from kids forces. energy rationing may soon be a reality for millions. that's the warning from islands you commissioner, amid the block growing, get into crisis. a betrayal from joe biden, prominence the international slums, the us presence moral posture and he's up clean visit to saudi arabia.

and molly is in the national morning over the deadly hottest attack, which left more than 100. 36 with you from our headquarters here in moscow and broadcasting to the world. you're watching out scenes national. i'm peter scott. i'm wherever you join us from. welcome to the program. we start with the latest developments in ukraine. the done? yes. people's republic has seen heavy shelling with the city of mackey africa, targeted by ukraine's armed forces. 15 rockets were fired at the city. one person was killed in 11 wounded, including 3 children. the capital of the net also came into 5 by you printed forces, according to local officials. showing also continues in civil than yet. in the guns people's republic, local authorities say the city was targeted from the direction of the assault chemical plants where you printing fights are located. puzzles continue amid

ongoing evacuations from the facility that the civilians are reported to have left the plant during the day. and a de mining operation continues in the dumbass republics with almost 30000 explosives and mines cleared by russian. suffers for the help of the mining robots . all his eagerness done of visits, one of the areas still to be the mind of force 5 position abandoned by the union army in the town of a pacifier, which saw heavy fighting last month. with the special forces of the russian army, we are right now moving towards the positions quite recently captured from the ukrainian troops. and we're about to see the fortifications that they have both directed and dug into the ground. well, over the past 8 years, and we're about to see what's left of them after the work of the russian artillery jets and well infantry.

i don't show up when you when i was going to submit on them, yet crunches deep enough to safely shelter a man of average height sprout across the area. amid concrete laden fortifications, we find western supplied weapons ukrainian troops abandoned in a hurry, as they fled, logo as well to the community. this is a permanent fortification. if we go inside, we can see the reinforce doors. they are made of thick steel with sand inside. going further we see another door of the same type and these are the firing positions. each of them has its own zone. these windows are reinforced as well with thick steel as we saw before. on the inside here, the position is draped with his best. if sir cannot catch fire. and this is how the same firing position, which you have just seen from the inside, looks from the outside. there's extra protection in the front, on the sides as well. you don't have to be a, the expert to see that it takes

a lot of firepower to well overcome and kick the forces out of a fortification like this one. ah, and these are the remains of a cluster munitions that the ukrainian force is used against their former own abandoned well of fortifications. these type of munition is bound to pretty much all over the world. as we explore this labyrinth, we make a disturbing discovery. the ukrainian positions are spidering across the fields here in all directions, and if they need to establish something like this, a command center, any place is good enough. even the cemetery, there's no red lines, it seems bulky. forces in the swarm ethics is expendable decency is in excess. i'm english done of reporting from the don bass r t. the mile a semblance of normality in russian control churches were in the city of man. it's

awful. dozens of people arguing to get russian passports grew mornings are coming from ireland is the country's e u commissioner says that energy rationing may be a new reality for millions of people. as soon as this year. fears of energy insecurity have increased since ireland has a few storage facilities. the german minister said we may need to look at energy rationing. that could be a reality. it's something we've tried to avoid. it's precarious, but i think we would be rather naive not to plan for the worst the commissioner as omitted the entire european block may need to reconsider are considered energy rationing after rushing gas giants, gas from reduce supplies through nord stream, one pipeline. the u commission president ursula of underlay and propose her own energy saving plan, saying that lowering the thermostats by 2 degrees in every european household is an effective step and replacing the entire gas supply coming from nordstrom one. now

the energy crisis is forcing you, lead is to take drastic measures to keep the taxpayers and votes as warm. several countries are now restarting and lifting restrictions on the use of coal fired power plants, which means that europe screen energy agenda appears to be going up in smoke as r t show davinsky 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 d 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 black malibu 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 in front of the 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 into accelerated energy transition in accordance with the climate objectives we have set forward. and so you'll be giving me, ma'am. 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 fuel. 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 presidency. european climate campaign as 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 are 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, senior research fellow at the global policy institute, things on george. some really believes that you should rethink his energy policies . well, they're always focused on trying to rush stress and that was does the lead raise the question? i mean, who do these politicians represent supposed to have elected leaders were elected by the people? do you actually care about your own people about your own boat?

whatever else you can say about europe. yeah, 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. and in many cases quite hungry . this is an absolute shame and a disgrace for europe. ah, amid the growing global energy crisis, us present, joe biden confirmed his funds to visit saudi arabia. this is cause outrage among some human rights advocates for putting business over his own vows to make a pariah. that's because of the murder of journalists, jamal castillo g back in 2018 biden. has made it clear that there won't be any direct consequences from a ham, had been salman for murdering shogi. unfortunately, the visit is the equivalent of a presidential pardon for murder and m b s. with the c. it is the bite and issued license to kill more cache augie's. it's just the trail for jamal cache. ok for

yemen. and if the trail of the democratic party credited the last 3 years, one day he's calling the saudi crown prince names and the other jo biden's, apparently on his way to re ads, to ask him for a favor. washington's begging saudi arabia to lower global oil prices. by increasing production, i think he will meet with the saudi crown prince. he has asked for all suppliers around the globe to increase production. that includes opec that includes our domestic oil and gas producers. he's asking for an increase like other leaders around the globe, except biden himself says he's not actually going to be meeting with the crown prince. mm. it should come as no surprise that there'd be confusion in washington about where to stand on this. after all the u. s president's long had it out for prince solomon's government. never since the murder of saudi dissident journalist jamal cas shoji in 2018 on the campaign trail biden promised he would pull no punches

when it came to disciplining the saudi parias state could show. he was in fact murdered and dismembered. i believe in the order of the crown prince, we were going to in fact make to pay the price and make them in fact, pariah that they are at the same time the mainstream media looks like it's trying to help bite and safely backtrack on all the mean things he said about prince salman in the past. articles about respecting each other's core interests and bite and needing riyadh have become more and more common as of late following the trail of money in oil though. and the real reason for biden's, 180 becomes crystal clear. in the near term, the companies have a very powerful market. incentive prices are high and their profit and profit margins are high. and what we are encouraging is that they take those and put those profits to work to increase production. how quickly washington ditched its moral posturing once its feet were held to the fire. all of us saudi arabia's

indiscriminate bombing campaigns and yemen are of no interest to the united states . the same campaigns that have drawn international condemnation as war crimes, and largely have relied on us support. goes without saying human rights groups aren't exactly happy about those developments. that's a part of me that understands why diplomatically we've gotten to this point. but it's also frightening and enraging her surgeries, wife isn't exactly thrilled either by noon you for me to so davy, as president in the you meet with jamal hotness executor. nice honoring your sir, and tomorrow by meeting m b s. if you have to put all your over the principal and expediency over value, can you please all right, joe, buddy. no problem. and what happened to his feelings? surely it was easy for biden to talk about principles before he became president, but problems as big as a global energy crisis,

sometimes called for sacrifices to be made. still going to saudi arabia, whatever happened to exploiting america's own energy resources. the head of his travel to the middle east. next month, we urge the president to prioritize unlocking us energy resources that are the envy of the world. instead of increasing reliance on foreign sources. this administration is not looking at 2 to actual american world companies like those in texas and midland, texas, keystone oil pipeline, and in the dakotas in united states that goes through canada. all the things that the buy administration shut down on day one. and so with all of these people that the 1000000, the job, the cost, the gas prices storing july, it is still going overseas to try to shift the blame to somebody else or to try to find reprieve somewhere else. anybody other than healthy american companies, helping american employees, helping american businesses with their,

our own home world? moon on. so the news now 132 people have been killed in its hearts by god is to rebels in the west african country molly of the weekend. local say that islamic extremists, systematically shots civilians miss of any is on your jaw. they came, they said to the people, you are not muslims in the felony language, they took the men, i'll a 100 people went out with them after 2 kilometers. they systematically shot people . police officer said the frogs up the different attack, not showing anything of the tears because usually dares would attack williams in the security pulse. but now we'll see that the rules are lacking. peace with citizens. it means that they are in a week with thought. what am i gonna find when massacres are very painful for me? it's asking for model numbers on my you can't sleep at night when you think about a situation that marty is going through. it's not good. terrorists must stop with these barbara. gang up armed forces are working, so we have to accompany, and with our prayer over the inside took place in 3 villages in the central region

of multi and has been described already as one of the deadliest incidents since the outbreak of the conflict. molly, local authorities at safe fights is looted, villages unborn down buildings. 3 days of national morning, begun on tuesday with the government pledging to find the pitches and bring them to justice. now it comes against the backdrop of france is 9 years of attempts to secure the region against terrorist groups. the malia prime minister, the earliest said it's paris fueling to amal in the region. comp out this, it will more wounds and grounds room did is the french authorities are carrying out genuine political media and diplomatic terrorism against our government, with the aim of overthrowing it. don't, did you create chaos? you armed people, you tell them to go into vide molly? the separate as clearly said that it was france that was behind the subways, movements of 2011. from libya, the leaders of the movement said france had instigated them to invade northern

molly and divided and create an independent state to the book. ali tantara from the sense of full security and strategic studies in the style says, friendships have proven effective in combating terrorism in the region. so you sambal it, that i saw speaking about operation service. it can be stated that it failed, because not only did molly fail to regain a significant number of territories occupied simultaneously by independent fighters in islamic terrorist groups. but at the same time, this operation gave the opportunity for the molly, an army to return to its former glory. many have pointed out with regards to the military actions of france in this region, the ineffectiveness of military cooperative french mission, the 1000000 army. and as a result of all this, the democratic republic of congo. and that despite the ministry rolling east african leaders have agreed to send regional security forces to defeat the rebels in the congress eastern provinces. the m 23 armed rebel group has the city of goma, which is one of the country's main trading hopes located near the one and border

and its sides. the rebels have see several key towns amid a major offensive last month. rwanda report delete will not take part in the minutes. opperation and congo accused this neighbor of supporting the group over many years local to claim the global community should have taken decisive measures long ago. liberal m security stated them. the security problem of our country is not a truck, the attention of the international community. and suddenly we're interested in this international community thinks that it, what dies and congo are numbers, or if they're really, humans like them. so be it brisket delicate willis. i do not agree with this regional force, which will be deployed here in the democratic republic of congo. as you know, there have been several initiatives by the congo, use governments to eradicate and rebel groups here in the province of north q. u. in any case until now we have not yet seen the direct involvement of the international community because there have been no sanctions against her wanda, but so quote, the people that she chose you were concerned about the current security situation.

things are getting worse and we have the impression that the international community does not care about our situation. the system in the east of the d. r. c, the social conditions of life are so degrading that it should interest every one of them all. the cod goods ha. now over half of the world's cobalt reserves, which is the mineral used in many electronic devices on cars, are located in congo, professor to me. it's an o n a from the university of south africa believes that any further escalation of the conflicts in the country could have severe consequences of the global economy. so they're just a matter of fact, this is very well funded, especially my for i for, for my condo nice guy, doug, me know darby county south as quote lot of the, the i saw the 2nd decision on wound up count said i did while missing. so i should be fine, but i had to do at least like seabrook or loves and couldn't opportunities to talk to you about those anderson. i love to people in the great illegal region by just

actually died. so because you will know that that's where we not discount or economy of their companies cont, off i'd, like i said, because our economy invest in that artist is relevant in harassing account. it is, there is in that in the fist at least we are seeing the situation of quality in that particular count. us treasury secretary has said that sometimes imposed by the previous administration like a strategic purpose, unburden american consumers with high costs. we all recognize that china engage is in a range of unfair trade practices. that is important to address that. the terrorists we inherited some serve no strategic purpose and res, cost to consumers with a move to court, sorry, on imports from china. it seems to be a mechanism to tackle skyrocket, inflation and goods shortages in the u. s. boats. meanwhile, over in china,

the sanctions earlier imposed by washington on micro chip supplies have shown unexpected results. the sanctions which were intended to damage the chinese economy, have apparently failed to achieve the aims since 2020, when the u. s. restricted to chip sales to china. that domestic production and overseas demand have risen last year orders from foreign countries for chinese chips rose by 58 percent with total sales reaching the record $150000000000.00 dr. jack rasmus, professor of economics and politics says that these policies initiated by trump were a failure. well under trump re dry to use stairs strategically any totally failed against china. when u. s. launched the trade war in march of 2018, there were 3 objectives. want to get child to buy more u. s. foreign products to, to allow us banks to 51 percent ownership in china and 3,

to somehow slow down stop china's plans for next generation technology. the sanctions that are being tested out by the u. s. with russia are eventually going to be administered in the economic war that's being been being plan, which i, and i think china knows that i think, you know, at some point a modus vivendi is reach between us nato and russia. at some point, who knows when they're trying to knows that the target is going to be placed on them. and finally, there's something of a diplomatic anomaly taking place in us. india relations is the position of us and busted to india has remained vacant for a record 18 months. the previous us ambassadors term expired in january 2021. while last year president by the nominated the mayor of los angeles, eric gas, se for the job. the senate has still not approved his move to new delhi or

t contribute to r t ticket. it brings us up to date on the issue. last 18 months, the position of the us back to india has made break it. this is biographies. august was stretch for us, passenger to india being way kids and baby, i'm sure also indicates that the by didn't appointee is a sensitive issue in the us because a republican senators how he objected to me saying that he does not represent american values. it doesn't be who the us to say, i think it got picked up to india, which is gone. so there's an important and i, in fact, the guy said he has been closed in june biden, and was also a member of the us intelligence. soon

after his appointment. he don't react in the us that he is going to emphasize because the for cation in the system, essentially he was hinting that she would like to limit india as partnership rig russia. any defense sector. as we know that in india depends on russia or most of its records, but so far had to mean jane and i like a partner with russia despite tremendous special coming to washington d. c. especially on the issue. all you really war was the main stories for this hour. do you head over to r t dot com or our social media pages for more as well as our channel and odyssey?

my name is peter scott and he's been great. have you with us? thanks for watching the i look forward to talking to you all. that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by human beings accept where such order is it conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about artificial intelligence. the point obviously, is to create trust rather than fear a job with artificial intelligence, real summoning with a robot must protect its own existence with

a talked to register for the school. i hope i hope with a, with a, with that also the situation issue. somebody over there, both of those with

our video, with a with it and i do so as you know, that way i don't mind ah, with sri lanka has become the 1st southeast asian country in 2022, unable to pay its foreign debt. this total is $51000000000.00. you wouldn't be doing the vol reading face such

a economic challenge. the sanctions imposed by western countries against russia have brought this island nation to its knees. oil prices have skyrocketed as have petrol medicine and food for the laser bryce as bona who on the 1st thousands of people took to the streets. and this is just the beginning. a similar scenario could unfold in bangladesh, nepal, pakistan, and other asian countries in africa. to talk to spoken at the door with some of us with the same old western trump victims swan a debate. it could be an individual, an industrial company, or even an entire country from a store, lend money, and then you have to pay it back. was huge. interest, our partners are very excited to welcome a u. s. enhanced economic engagement with the reason we know the west can the industrialized any country they won, they've done it with japan, korea, taiwan,

singapore, malaise, yeah. oh geo political reasons. now they do it that the eastern europe same exactly the same whenever they want to do it when they don't want to block this new medical school. it older stephen easy skokie on. so i need some clarity on that for just studying abroad. b o u d, sri lanka is paralyzed ah, since of thousands of gathered in front of the presidential administration building on this square in the capital of colombo, it's become a kind of 10 city where the protest asleep coke chant and away change is

the man man boston globe a border hold on with the game you in on the light and.
