ah ah, russian led forces advance in dunbar, securing the strategic city of separate than it had been a key stronghold of have truth in the lives against republican. also ahead if they need to establish something like this, a command center, any place is good enough. even the cemetery party visits heavily fortified positions abundant bobby ukrainian army near the turn of pop up as russian allied forces continued. the mining territories captured from the premium troop. thousands protest does g 7 leaders gather for some insurance cards,

also voicing their opposition to nato's involvement in the board with arms deliveries. it is an objective intervention by nato, and we do not know how exactly will escalate. we must therefore take decisive action against this threat of war with the top stories from the past 7 days and right up to the moment developments as well. this is the weekly and artsy other one welcome. we begin in dumbass were after a major russian lead offensive. the key city of several done yet has been taken under the full control of the le, against republics armed forces. now this is the latest footage we've received from the exalted chemical plants. the last highlights of ukrainian trips, they were forced to withdraw from the city which had been used as a military stronghold. hundreds of civilians who are trapped in the area are not

being evacuated to safety. the successful offensive came about after russian lead forces entered the nearby city of listed chunks, counter pushed back the ukrainian military there. as you can see them up against troops block key of forces from the north, while the latest advance of russian soldiers showed them tick. this southern front us ukrainian forces retreat ortiz eager shit down off has been exploring the fortifications, left abandoned in the area 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. ah,

i don't care when you are not as good as it was mute on crunches deep enough to safely shelter a man of average height sprout across the area and had 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 military expert to see that it takes

a lot of firepower to will overcome and kick the forces out of a fortification like this one. ah, and these are the remains of a cluster munition 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 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 this warm ethics is expendable decency is an excess. i mean there's done of reporting from the don bass c. let's take it through some other developments as well. the russian defense ministry. phase 3 ukrainian

military brigades have been hit by cruise missile strikes at the missiles had training centers for the troops in the western part of the country. the ministry claims the printing army units targeted have now lost their combat readiness and can no longer be used as a strategic army reserves. another story to bring attention to today g 7 leaders are set to an onset bon on imports of rushing goals this year as a group of 7, some of of leading develop the colonies as it's going kicks off in germany. well, climate change, food security, economic development, all on the agenda, the conflict and ukraine on a joint strategy of arming cube is likely to dominate talks. the u. s. president emphasize they solidarity between participating countries against moscow and a pre, some a talk with the german chancellor message with

no small part. we have to stay together is prudent and counting on from the beginning and nato with splendor. and we're not going can what was the question for me to get away from thank you. thank you both. not. it's not all. thank you. in diplomacy tysons in munich, frustrated by the policies, all the g 7 hub poured on to the streets, claiming there's plenty of talk coming from them, but little action on big issues there also demanding nato stop sending weapons to elbow available. don't scope it. i work with the resistance group because we are totally against this war, escalating an ukraine. we had a great fear that nato will openly intervene and unfortunately it is already doing

so with arms deliveries. it is an object of intervention by nato, and we do not know how exactly it will escalate. we must therefore take decisive action against this threat of war. i guess i'm a difficult situation. oh, 1st because of the corona pandemic now because of the crime crisis and cry and not to speak of the crisis and the way. but other things i have to take a leadership role, and i don't see that happening or protests have also, a ruptured in madrid, we're in nato summit is said to take place next week. demonstrators are demanding an end to what they call the tyrannical military alliance on for nato to full supply. here with legal aid, also a point of notes on the day india and argentina have been invited as special guests to the g 7 summit as they group seeks to entice india towards the club and abandon its neutral stance over the ukraine conflict. while argentina's invitation comes,

as the countries president declared his wish to join the bricks group of developed our colonies. now somalia is starving to death before our eyes, but was the stark warning. the un issue to g 7 leaders this week ahead of today's opening round of the somebody said only a massive and immediate increase in funds can stop the country from descending into a catastrophe, caused by a great fireman. while somalia is part of an extensive crisis on falling on the african continent, despite a global appeal for the country along with e, c o p. and so to sit down to attracting pledges of $6000000000.00, the u. n. sage, only 3 percent of those funds have actually been received the u. s. children's fund . unicef is also warning that almost 8000000 children across 15 countries are at risk of death from starvation. and then

a bid to tackle the food crisis in africa that you have pledged on additional humanitarian package, but it's estimated to be much less than europe is providing for you. crane with more and how the funding is drying up. here's our t policy. i squatted, cancelled waste of johannesburg, where when a typical doesn't have a job and wanting for people like the rest of africa is patient insecurity. maybe 15000000 children are managed on this continent. now to fight family in the last year, the european union spend $1800000000.00. compare this 4 feet, 4300000000 dollars more than twice that number, that the e u has spent in ukraine in just the last 4 months. the ear foreign policy chief joseph borrow accuses the russian president vladimir putin of a deliberate attempt to create hunger in the world. in order to pressure on the you to lift the sanctions. one can not imagine that the millions of tons of wheat

remain blocking ukraine. you are the director of the world. people are suffering hunger pieces that really walk right. but in africa, 12 people die upon get every minute. statistics that existed long before the ukrainian crisis. not only does not acknowledge it's disproportionate spending in ukraine, it's doing very little to help fight famine. it's excuse and i want to insist that it's not going to be in sanction. sure. which creates english crisis. our sanctions don't target foot don't out of the 4th july. african leaders disagree, the chairman of the african union court on brussels to provide relief for imported cereals and fertilizers. it is aggravated by european sanctions on the method of payment. we want to play, but it comes impossible. so we are asking the europeans for the same mechanism as

for gas and oil. so far that coal has fallen on deaf is boiling. so if you sanctions on russia are not responsible for the global from crisis, and an african countries should not gain any special stations. feeling that to people who live here the way food is case and becoming more so the policy on team 200 african a 1st specialist, a coal niamack sees it's critical. the continent receives food assistance urgently in order to avert hunger and a burg fan in africa. has to be on number one, emergency food assistance that can help burnable people in rapid idp and people have been displaced to conflict number to helping some people are. and they get access to funding and assistance in order to improve agricultural yield and ensure that they're able to provide for themselves. because it is one thing to provide

humanitarian. but also, you need give up for people to help the work in africa has the potential to become a good economic powerhouse within the world. given the opportunity and provided the necessary for developing countries in europe, in the united states and canada, to provide assistance in to provide support and help african countries in the development to initiative, to reduce poverty, increase employment and create opportunities and improve the governance and contribute to social economic development, where the west plains rush ship almost entirely for the food crisis unfolding there . but flooding or putting us back out, those accusations. russia is waging a cynical grain war using as a tool to make food prices skyrocket and destabilize entire countries. nothing is preventing food and fertilizer from leaving russia, and only one country is blocking food and fertilizer from leaving ukraine. and that

is russia today where seen a deliberately inflated hysteria over the termination of ukrainian grain exports. the plexi both i would once again like to stress that russia doesn't create any obstacles to transport the grain from ukraine and he's ready to provide the free passage of ships carrying grain to international waters. we have a mutual understanding here with the u. n, but we still lack a constructive approach from the key of authorities ahead of the southern african cluster of the red cross told me he fears global focus has shifted from the hunger emergency happening there. right now humanitarian age and i've been in the ideal world. yes. we want it to be fairly distributed. what we do know is that that's not the case. if i look at my continents and we've been shouting the hunger crisis boy a few months now, and this situation is going to get was where seen that the a we need not get in. where seen that are the regions i get in the focus and not to

say that one humanity or in situation is more better or worse. a one person is better off in terms of getting the aid. but what we are saying is that, that a does not get in always to the people that needed the most and on the continent. but i represent, we're seeing children that are starving. we're seeing people that are also dying because of them of no lack of food. so the situation is really dire. we're saying that more focus needs to be given to the continent so that at least humanitarian workers like a new military organization abroad can really step up in terms of scaling up our actions. well, let's keep attention on the continent because the west african nation of molly was in morning this week after attacks by johanna terrorists last weekend. at left 132 people dared local se, islamic extremist, selectively, gun done civilians.

ah ah ah let me go on your jaw. they came. they said to the people, you are not muslims in the few lani language. they took the men a 100 people went out with them after 2 kilometers. they systematically shot people . ah put them all work for you with the massacres are very painful for me and it's the same for all mile the us. we can't sleep at night when we think about the

situation that most he's going through was not good. terrorists must stop with these barbaric axis our armed forces are working. we have to accompany them without prayers. 3 days of national morning began on tuesday with the government pledging to find the perpetrators and bring them to justice. they attach were some of the deadliest in molly since the outbreak of fighting a decade ago when tor egg, separatists rose up against the government, taking advantage of the kiosk by islamists, miller. molly house faced the string of civilian massacres, this year of extremists and criminal groups, tickle plunging the country to further crisis. now going about. thank you. them and you know of america get it. uh huh. what does it become against the backdrop of frances 9 years of attempts to secure the region against an enlarging terrorist presence? the molly and prime minister, however, has previously claimed its paris itself fueling turmoil in the country comp. at

this, it will momentum zango, gonzo de, the french authorities are carrying out genuine political media and diplomatic terrorism against our government. with the aim of overthrowing it, you create chaos. you armed people, you tell them to go into vide molly. the separate is clearly said that it was france that was behind the separatist movements of 2011. from libya, the leaders of the movement said france, it instigated them to invade north and molly and divide it and create an independent state. meanwhile, in neighboring burkina, faso civilians held a rally demanding an end to france. his military cooperation in favor of other support including russian, the curb, terrorism, regional experts, l. it's incorrect claims french troops of proven ineffective and come by the yes, mr tax and the regional man. speaking about operation servo, it can be stated that it failed because not only did molly fail to regain a significant number of territories occupied simultaneously by independence fighters and 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 cooperation between the participants of the french mission, the 1000000 army, as well as the combined forces of the cell 5. the shortcomings lead to the fact that ultimately france was unable to put an end to the security problems associated with terrorism. as of now, the reason is completely abandoned in terms of joint military operations. since each army fights in isolation without making efforts to harmonize and structure joined efforts to end the instability associated with terrorism. the current security situation is connected with withdraw the army of burkina faso with a termination of the joint military operation of molly in the air, as well as the unforeseen and uncoordinated withdrawal of french troops. and as a result of all this, this hell has become a very unstable region. opened all kinds of hostilities. ok,

let's return on the program to one of our headline stories. this year's g 7 summit best kicked off in germany, the conflict and ukraine and a joint strategy of arm and key of are likely to dominate talks by the way, india and argentina. they've been invite a special guest to take part in the forum. and we can go live now to former indian buster to it'll in romania raj if dugger and buster. you're very welcome to the program. thank you. and can we start with that last point? what do you believe the g 7 is trying to achieve by inviting the indian prime minister to its summit? is it just global diplomacy? or something more pointed when i think this is not the 1st time that the prime ministers liked it to a g 7 summit. that is part of the tradition and part of the honor given to our country, the transit importance and the certain relevance. so the black importance

for india has been my prime minister movie, has been invited to the summit and india and for some reason has always been on the side of it quickly. and this time you said one, as the main message could be able to look at. so i message remains as the most concern of the readership because it's actions and their work should not need to negative effect on rest of the race. one of the, a backdrops to that invitation has been in recent weeks, perhaps even longer than that. you've had western partners going to new delhi at essentially trying to put

a friction between russia and india in the overview being the ukraine conflict. india has studied stand strong saying that we will not be dictated to by external forces at india's foreign minister. i'll just read what, what say, he said medicare, the country won't stop buying russian energy, no matter the pressure from other countries on buster will india maintain strong relations with mosque, with, despite this invitation and other leanings towards the west from and from partners? well, i think it was a very important question and it needs to be reminded to people in the world and who are friends in russia that india and russia stood by each other or the last 75 years or 1947 when india became independence. and india has phone was acted in this rights and just and ordered things is that says

what it's independence policy. and i think one of the few that yeah, as for those, this fight tremendous mission, as you said, very likely by there are some of the restaurant son, p as an example in all and be must maintain its friendship with everyone, especially with bring my fresh yes. and secondly, even the means of taking someone one sure not just be it can for north of one do or the other thing is i think this is another issue on what, which means reflection when the sanctions scan the electrons and can be imposed on rest of the world and when our sanctions are you one for the, for the fun that in for this, for example, in some medicine,

but there are medic about they have imposed already sanctions on and then and to be an individual across the world. so it does not as a huge normal sanction being a medi in 2nd me if you about imposing sanctions that got like one of the worst, for example. and this is what it is from brett, you know, medical conference. they've been brought the loss of revenue because it has to import or, and i think i was from some written for from another country that america is not doing yet. it a lot of runs vacations, isn't there. the backdrop to that. as you, as you succinctly took us through there, can i also just touch upon the g 7 summit and buster at which kicked off to day? what do you take to be the likely take away from the meeting? protestors we've seen saying that the groups all talk at very little action house

fir is not assessment well, unfortunately it started off with insurance. and this time, for example, we had the word that the focus would be on climate change moment issues because offer 4 with the water does not work from the nomic position. and now with all the sanctions in the and the on the issues connected with the food supply and so on. that is that the final decision is feasible. but what we see today in germany induced on meeting is not to focus on those issues. but the focus is on those sanctions, more sanctions and the for national water in your brain, which i think is unfortunate for wrong or does monitor comment right on the if it is, you know, many are dead. so i think diplomacy must be get one of the jobs,

and if you say one would want some good on these on diplomacy to bring america solutions to the price is that you're seeing that on has maybe the best message. but unfortunately, i don't think that there's really, i think, ok, as you know, argentina is another country invited to the summit, but the countries president has announced his wish to join the bricks group of developing countries. this very week is the g 7 attempting to entice when it's are away from the breaks, perhaps perhaps in the same vein as they are attempting with india? no, i don't think that there's a connection between margin, dina and dixon. g. i was a timing is quite extraordinary though just 2 days ago, argentina said we, we would like to be involved with the bricks grouping. no, you're right. that's the mercy is about

a lot of messaging and timing as well. but in this case, i think we're getting so much ok. interesting. g 7 countries discussing a potential price comp and russian loyal. and it's such a move feasible, you think when they were last was china? many other countries will china welcome a price, but i think it might reduce damo before and that is but using from russia. i don't think as to what extent you think fresh sanctions and russia such as about an russian goal, the ports are expected to be known today or tomorrow will not succeed in hurting rushes economy. or do you foresee moscow looking more towards the likes of india, china, and other parts of the world, abrupt don't get the spotlight that the west is talking about. when this talk

about russia is lead, has the largest producer and china, and then yes, brought to all the importers just to get picked up last year in your work at $55.00 was, was from around the world. and so it doesn't significant amount. and it is significant, we'll focus on economy. so what that means in terms of practical action on drones, it is too early for me to stick with the g 7, some vicious climate goals at odds with the increased requirements for energy, particularly in europe. since the sanctions and russia, do you think the g 7 countries have complicated their own situation? well, i think quite categorically, yes, it does unnecessary economic burden that the bringing up on their own people. and i

don't think, you know, the slight our respect for the american ship and policy makers. i don't think the issue has been whether they have any realize the impacts of sanctions on the what just to give you one example, let's go back in the open 10. russia drug production as it is making these, which was important from russia on the law. they had difficulty in getting supplies and there was a price raise. many people see that the spring that was, that was in 2011 on what was in the next me or that i need some hope connected to this issue. that the big prices rules and there was ended in the similar need, the sanction one off the medicine on the word wire.

in fact, if you think in a negative sense, it's nominally on the people who as i said earlier, what already facing difficulties with what you got the order in the last 3 years and then reason the quality no one on the ball would be no sanction. tremendous, and then let me give you one more than that about who doesn't countries need to forward on the human in this year. so the 6 months is a senior, like i said, that is fine for people and policy me to reflect back and things that are things working as they wanted or should be change in that action more than working. let's give you a chance. well, thank you. so much for coming on the program and sharing your views. you've been very good with your time on all those different aspects of the global economy. and

more beyond that as well. roger doug ref former indian imposter to italy and romania, we appreciate a thank you. thank you. now, an intriguing aspect of the ukraine conflict is the amount of foreign fighters seen on both sides of the barricade. so just why is not the case or short documentary delves into not right ahead say close. 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 offensive, very dramatic development, only personally and getting to disease. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very difficult time time.
