11:06 am
score the cylinders have been the ones that but for now we are leaving this area and hopefully we'll make it back to our hotel safe and sound roman cancer of hearty done. that's also a news line coming in us high mars missile systems hover arrived in ukraine, not as according to of authorities. the long range rocket units were sent as part of another assistance package. washington previously announced the delivery of 4 other hi more systems. although they have not yet been deployed as ukrainian soldiers have been trained in how to use them. as summits of the bricks, countries, the world's biggest emerging economies has kicked off online with russia as president, joining the discussions. the 1st indeed, major, multilateral meeting vladimir putin has been part of since the ukraine conflict began. let's listen to what the russian leader had to say in his opening remarks
11:07 am
along with the host of the summit chinese president. she didn't pay. this is our meeting today comes at a crucial moment of choice for the future of humanity. we must give the international community to practice true multilateralism, uphold the international system with the un at its core and international order underpinned by international law. we must abandon the cold war mentality and block confrontation and oppose unilateral sanctions. and it's important for the world to recognize that fortunate community with shared future is much better than the practice of hedge money. will go only on the basis of honest and mutually beneficial corporation. can we look for ways out of the crisis situation that has developed in the world economy due to the ill conceived selfish actions of certain countries love to discuss the summer and what's ahead in the next few days is the host of worlds apart. here in our tea, oksana boy, folks on a welcome to you. yet the opening remarks by the leaders usually in fact,
11:08 am
always set the tone for as such a sum of anything in particular catcher either. yes, this is the 4th in summit, and originally this organization was created as this loose economic trade alliance. ah, no strings attached. read that idea was to kickstart a trade and economic corporation among those are large economies. and i think increasingly it's taking on them more political tone. it's not a very express at this point, but he already can read between the lines. and i think the best way i can summarize it is that if the west particular of the united states sees the current station in the world as sort of a clash and an existential battle between the i talk, chris's and democracies. ah, for many of the bricks leaders, if not for all it's about practical governance versus political or i would even say,
11:09 am
ah, partisan and maneuvering. because there is a clear sense in many of their statements that they, they want. they want to focus on practical matters of how to improve the lives of the people in this very difficult situation. we have, you know, run away inflation all over the world, shortages of food and fuel supplies, etc. and in put in statement and she didn't think statements, we see that stress on actual work rather than ideological slogans. and i think that's, that's the main beef with the west that the western politics has become way to populists, not on the mass level, but on the leap level. it's all about slogans and very little about practical matters of people's lives. and that's interesting because that's what a lot of people in the west are seeing themselves now. the hearing leaders of emerging countries seeing that as well. and by the way,
11:10 am
there is emerging countries, accounts for more than 3000000000 people. every large proportion of the globe, the money you mentioned, it's been going through for over a decade now. the bricks, the bricks for a month. how effective though, hasn't actually been over the years, and how crucial is it in today's economy? well, it's difficult to say, you know, because i think we can clearly say that that potential hasn't been fully realized. even economically, even though, for example, if you look at the figures, russia's tre turnover bricks, countries has increased 38 percent in the 1st 3 months of this year despite all the sanctions. i think many of the analysts within those countries believe that there are many more signatures that haven't been fully explored them, that trying to do it now and not out of spice against the west, but out of a cannot make necessity. and there's a lot of talk about strengthening economic corporation, finding new ways of 5 account settlements. there's even talk of perhaps some sort
11:11 am
of a joint currency again, not because of some idea to call and can merican or anti repeat reason. but simply because macroeconomic station in the world is very, very difficult and put in is to be huge goodness, because the, the greenback dollar is, is the currency. so if you've got something that's backed up by major economies that could challenge that gemini, couldn't, well, it's, well, i think the united states itself is challenging. it's germany, and many of the leaders stated that already on various occasions in just the last few years, the money supply, they supply mass of the us dollar has increased roughly by 40 percent and with the euro, it's roughly by 20 percent. and obviously some of that burden is put on the developing countries. that's the major factor that's fueling the inflation. now even putting it aside, rushes own problems with sanctions and being able to carry out those transactions.
11:12 am
but it's, it's a major financial liability and that's why they're talking about finding a way to secure the economies and due to been mutually beneficial way. and there's even talk about perhaps expanding it a bit further. just the other day. the argentine as an award to china on the for the summit, said that there ginger is also looking forward to joining this alliance simply because corporation there is mutually agreeable and it comes with no strings attached. you don't have to fulfill any political geopolitical obligations. every interesting few days ahead of time. thanks very much for bringing us through the world's heart, where smart host loved via catholics down you're most welcome to the program, sir. the chinese resident has said that this year's bricks for him comes to quote, a crucial moment of choice. what do you make of that? and what results could we expect from the summit when you're just going to fare this moment? of course, we would like there to be greater cooperation as prime minister movie has said that
11:13 am
there have been, you know, certain areas or the last 14 years that the leaders have been meeting that there has been some progress in a different large number of areas. we know about the new development bank. we know about the current seated swab system, new development bank membership is increasing slighting the outreach of this financial institution that is growing. so there are possibilities. and while you know, a number of the other international organizations have not been able to do, even as much as bricks has been able to do, at least breaks, are we able to meet every year. and you know, the summit started taking place in 2009. that is not a single year in which these meetings have not taken place, which is not what you say for a number of other international bodies. so it really means that these 4 countries
11:14 am
to begin with from 20192015 countries after that they see value, they see merit in this organization. that is why they're willing to invest that much of time for energy into coming together. but as the previous speaker was saying, i would concur with that. you know, the full potential has not been realized. and that is, you know, partly due to, let's say, some bits of trust deficit within the organization. after all, within between india and china. we see that there is a conflict on the line of factual control of that. as you know, wiley hall agreements that john, i've written down if it amassed more than holding the border so that you know, when you're talking about respect in the united nations and respecting
11:15 am
international law. well, this goes, you know, flying straight in the face of also respecting the bilateral agreements that of a line. so that definitely does the create difficulty that one other difficulty as well that you may want to talk on is that reports are emerging, that india is skeptical about the group's expansion. doing know what you deli stances as regards that? no, i think girl, you know, why not we do watch your, the government is thinking, but you know, having negotiated extensively in a large number of similar international bodies and organizations, i think any expansion that needs to come, it needs to be taken up step by step you know, it cannot be, as you know, the impression that seems to be giving given is that maybe this is an effort. this
11:16 am
is an attempt to 5 and, and i rest sort of partnership that is sort of the world. and i think in this world of day, when we are talking about cooperation, when we're talking about collaboration, i think we need to be connected with the all sides. and we don't need to get on bring to create fishes between different bodies, different international organizations. so i think we need to have more work as to establish what are the criteria, what are the prerequisites of any particular expansion in terms of determine what are the objectives of 1st to fall off of this body and how the expansion will. it even goes objective because i think also it needs to be recognized that the 1st we need to drive, we need to ensure
11:17 am
a consolidation of the body as a stand as we were talking. it's not being able to realize the full potential. so 1st, try to bring it up to realizing the full potential before spreading it out. sorry for interrupting. but what you said about certain divisions between indian china. is that going to put a barrier to that somewhat because reports also say, sir, that the indian government opposes beijing's alleged desire to use this year's summit as a means to build alan. turns up to the u. s. lead global order. could that mean that can we assume from the india is actually happy with the current state of international affairs? no, of course we're not happy with the current state of international affairs. we would like to be established between russia and ukraine. we have been asking for, we have been speaking about the establishment of peace. there should be negotiation,
11:18 am
there should be talks and there should be, you know, war should end. so obviously we are not happy with the situation as it stands. and you know, what you were talking about in terms of the impact of the war has had on global you know, whether it is availability of the supply chain, the working of supply chains, auditors, supply of, you know, pricing of energy availability of energy, food, fertilizer. so obviously we are not happy also, we're not happy with the, the, the sort of situation that exists between, between china and the united states in terms of the confrontation. and we can see that, you know, one my point fingers at the united states, but being in this region also knows that one of the important reasons causes
11:19 am
for that is the aggressiveness and the expansion of policies of china. so i think there needs to be understanding on both sides as to what we need to do to, to establish peace, to establish a corporation, to establish collaboration and not to create blocks in the world. so that is what india would like to work on. that is what i'm going to say movie has spoken today that we have the bricks, countries work together. there have been some good develops people to people in terms of businesses, cooperation between businesses, between us and now in the post pandemic, economic recall. also, these countries can work together and deliberate is not what we actually just have to leave it because time has beaten us, sir, but you raise a lot of interesting points in that conversation. we'll go through some of it in the coming hours as well. sure, sure. john har,
11:20 am
former indian diplomat on the buster to extend sweden and not few many. thank sir. i go too much and guess well, as the ambassador was saying, several countries have already expressed interest in becoming bricks. members, including iran, where russia's foreign minister held talks with his counterpart earlier. both sides discuss western sanctions, seeing the quote and limit the equality and sovereignty of affected countries. moscow into iran also insisted on the full restoration of the really nature deal and called and church. and the un to work to open up a black sea grain courage we're you leaders are gathering right now to decide whether to support grunting, ukraine on both dover candidacy status for the block, and the issues that comes with that. it all comes after the european parliament approved a resolution with some politicians saying it was a symbolic mis from different randy, you candidate status to ukraine is
11:21 am
a symbolic decision accession to the block will require huge reforms in time when you look well, some more reaction albanians prime minister said ukraine joining the you will not be a speedy process, albania, north macedonia, montenegro, serbia, and turkey are all current candidates on the list. will not all you parliament members supported the resolution. some emmys pays from francis identity and democracy and the left party in germany voted against. incidentally, the european commission opted not to recommend georgia for candidacy status. it should be noted, such as this does not confer membership, which could still be decades away for ukraine. but the european council president maintains a strong position on t x. a special note is closed. this is a decisive moment for your opinion. so a job through choice with
11:22 am
ukraine. it hasn't though, been a smooth right. the key f. numerous countries of question did suitability for candidate status issues over widespread corruption, a lack of stability in its institutions. it's poor economic state. and of course, the fact that the country is improved in a war have raised serious concerns with would you give me the activities of those politicians aimed at division or collusion will not succeed, but will receive a harsh response. however, many of these issues seem to have been whitewashed when the commission gave its recommendation overall as regards the political criteria, ukraine as well advanced in reaching the stability of institutions guaranteeing democracy, the rule of law, human rights and respect for protection of minorities. but even lun delane has
11:23 am
admitted ukraine will have to pull out all of the stops if it's to reach the final destination. as you member other members of the block agree, this could be a very long way off you. several times. we all know perfectly well the process to allow ukraine to join would take several years. indeed, probably several decades. some countries such ifs turkey have been waiting since the end of the last century. and even if you crane can fulfill the very long list of requirements, the dream of becoming a member of the in you could still be just fat becoming a candidate may signal the intention. but it's certainly no guarantee. well, germany left party member and human rights lawyer martin told her is not convinced either ukraine or the e u. of benefit from the move. i think it's a symbolic move anyway, and that's how you come as well. if you look at the ukraine, the ukraine,
11:24 am
further maybe for terrier, which means that there has to be a democratic society. the human rights have to be kept alive and in ukraine we have impunity of torture us. you have a lot of corruption. ready have partial involved in the state, so it just will be candidate the on long term. so i think it's more symbolic act, not many actors inside the european union profit off this, especially the population of ukraine and the population. and the. ready opinion or profit of germany has sounded the alarm over a gas supplies warning of the country's economic could fall into recession if russian exports stopped all together. gas prices in europe jumped in mid june following use out russian energy giant gas from would reduce gas flow into germany
11:25 am
by 40 percent at blooming a german operator for not making schedule pipe repairs in time. moscow, and since the supply cuts were not deliberate, however, berlin remains unconvinced. we must not fool ourselves to cut in gas supplies, is an economic attack on us by prudent, from now on gas as a scarce commodity in germany. we are therefore now obliged to reduce gas consumption now already in summer. well let's get the thoughts of our to cody b at our rachel marston on this. hi there, rachel. so berlins accusing moscow of cutting gas supplies. but didn't germany stated school was the phase i'd, russian fossil fuels altogether. right. german cesar, all i shall said at the beginning of april during a trip to london to see british prime minister of course, johnson. we are actively working to get independent from the import of oil, and we think that we will be able to make it during this year. and we are actively working to get independent from the necessity of importing gas from russia. he also
11:26 am
said that germany was optimistic, that we will get rid of the need of important gas from russia. very soon pop the champagne mission accomplished right. berlin is getting exactly what it said. it wanted, what actively work for. with this drastic reduction of russia gas in force due to you sanctions against russia. but instead of celebrating its progress in reducing russian gas, it's now sounding the alarm and blaming vladimir putin. why do they even need to bring vladimir putin into this when they're doing such a bang up job of being their own worst enemy? apparently, the russian president is obviously not responsible for setting you or german policy aimed at harming russia. these folks really are just, it's an absolute circus. berlin surprises plans of backfired ran his face because he clearly didn't think all this through before pulling the trigger on russian sections. and now there's added concern of the gas shut down in july during
11:27 am
schedule north stream. one pipeline maintenance, meaning even less gas supply. it's not like there isn't another pipeline just sitting there waiting to be used. berlin cow tab to washington and you sanctions, when they demanded that the north stream to pipeline to carry russian gas into germany and europe. the blot chemical industry association sheets, york rothermel says that german gas storage needs to be at 90 percent capacity by the pol, to avoid gas shortages and mandated reduction of industrial gases sumption imposed by the federal energy regulator. now it's not a gas prom seo alexi miller didn't warranty you earlier this month of the potentially disastrous consequences of these kinds of misguided policies. well, karate mccook, the paradigm itself, is changing with the priority is being driven to another formula, goods, money,
11:28 am
good. so we sell gas and then we extract it our goods, our rules, europe has abandoned long term contracts. that means that for those long term contracts that have not been concluded or extended capacities have not been created as a result in a spot markets or a liquid. if we warned europe about the consequences we were asked to build nord stream to we built it, but it was not certified as shown with russia. lucas rouge? nick? yeah, berlin is back to cells and it's kind of me into quite quarter by caving to ideological anti rushing pressure without any observable. busy viable backup plan or any realistic short term scott stock got measures. now, of course, berlin could end this self inflicted pain. any time anne could always, of course, reverse course or fire up north stream too. but that would require placing its own economic interests above suicidal, virtue signaling and the courage to own up to mistakes made by both brussels and
11:29 am
berlin. rachel, thanks very much for taking us throughout our tea contributor rachel morrison. right, that is our lot for not, but stay close because next we delve into the relationships between the leaders of allied forces in the build up to world war 2. and how such ties had ramifications far beyond their respective borders. right up to the present day or short documentary is right, the head sticklers. ah, what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race is on offense. very dramatic development. only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical time time to sit down and talk
