russian gold worth around, $19000000000.00 a year in exports. now a sanctions target and abundance of native weapons and scattered rockets are to explore what remains the as a chemical plant in several done yet after care. of course it retreated. another plant that was supposed to be the best piano of ukrainian defense that fell rod the quickly basically were about to see how the lived and what they left behind and with broadcasting live direct from studios in moscow. this is our international launch on thomas. certainly glad to happy with us. right now, thousands of people have joined a rally in germany against to g 7, economies to demand action against western militarization, while screaming antiwar slogans. but internal and global issues appear not to be as interesting to g, 7 leaders as vacation photos of the shirtless russian president with you care you k, premier boys,

johnson and his canadian counterpart joking about whether they should undress in order to show that they are tougher than by the way i. oh. after sharing jokes g 7 leaders have gone from playing games to blame games, specifically blaming russia for storing prices as their severe energy crisis. continue into yet another year. for see just how critical this is every day. the entire world is feeling the impact of rushes, broody, war and ukraine, and on our energy market. here in the, in the g 7, i think what we're realizing is that we do the parties over for russian hydrocarbons. so everybody's finding new ways of adapt is, comes out of gas and electricity prices continue to rise in western countries with many ordinary people suffering from high inflation and storing gas bills. meanwhile,
1:03 am
g 7 leaders appear more interested in ukraine than fuel prices, reportedly committing to provide indefinite military and financial support to give his ortiz what i got to have with commentary on how western leaders call on people to sacrifice their basic needs. in order to defeat russia, european leaders are as enforced, trying to convince hundreds of millions of voters that they couldn't help to stop booting. by. for example, showering less my counterpart from the netherlands recently told me proudly that they had launched a campaign intended to cut the average, showering time from 10 minutes to 5. it is a powerful response to vladimir putin's intention of dividing our society by way of higher prices. yes, a powerful response indeed. german pundents of even come up with tips to help people shower less and use less war mortar. for example, they came that if you don't shower for extended periods of time, weeks,
1:04 am
the bacteria that will bloom across your body will start eating the dirt in the stink off of you. that's actually in build than many germans are shaking their heads. the symptoms were not, it always sounds so banal, replaced the shower head, that saves 30 percent energy ha showerhead should save us from posing from god. so if you see the total, it adds up quite a bit. after all, there are a total of $40000000.00 households in germany. they're even coming up with names for this stuff. operation thermostat in italy, and public spaces schools outs, where you could only use air conditioners to cool to 25 degrees celsius in the summer. and heat to only 90 degree celsius in the winter exceed those and you potentially face fives, amounting to thousands of euro's france is following suit, energy efficiency and energy saving play an important role if we reduce the heating
1:05 am
temperature, 80 degrees on average in europe, or that of air conditioning directly to replace the entire supply as not stream. what's worse, years and years. even decades of calm with an green energy policies are being a raced in this economic self flagellate co palace stations are being sod up in germany and austria, the netherlands, and more all regulation as flying out the window for reference burning coal produces twice as much carbon dioxide as burning natural gas twice as much. and by the way, this isn't rock bottom. europe still have some way to go before officials sink the continent to that level. and we have to be honest, it's not over yet. more people will be affected. the high energy prices will only gradually be passed on to consumers. i see a great determination to not allow putin to get away with this war. even if it
1:06 am
comes at a cost phrase in the winter boil in the summer, shower less and pay more for water for fuel, for power, all in the name of beat in putin, by, by less natural gas from russia accept. and this is what european officials haven't told people. all that's russia, natural gas, that europe doesn't buy, just goes to asia to china that india in denisia elsewhere. all that self inflicted suffering pushed on europeans by the same leaders who led them into an energy crisis. and for was apparently for nothing german lawmaker and retired air force, colonel gerald autumn believes that the west is still far from a complete agreement when it comes to sanctions against russia, because they will then want to send a message. ok, the west and united. but i don't with is united,
1:07 am
they tried to show united with the top towards russia. and, but what i see is that there are also some cracks in the unity because we see that the different interest in the way that i get russia with certain sanctions. we see that the russian oil can be freely exported with greek tankers around the world. and there's a high demand for, for russian on the market. and i know that we're, we're also people in the west and trying to escape inflation and tend to buy gold. so i think just the price will rise, but it will not the, the roughly economy that in that way as the western nations in germany will never reach its climate goals that we talk about using german colon far,
1:08 am
far production of electrical energy. and we would come in dramatic to drain the really have much more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere in germany than, than, than before. so germany will never reach its goals outside of blaming russia for rising prices. the west is on the lookout for more ways to undermine it. this time a ban on gold exports is trumpeted as the latest way to destroy moscow's economy. us secretary of state antony, blinking claims an embargo on russian gold with strip moscow of around $1900000000000.00 in annual revenue. that is the 2nd most lucrative export. the russia has after energy, it's about $900000000.00 a year. and most of that is within the, the g 7 countries. so cutting that off dying access to about $19000000000.00 a revenues a year that significant it was unclear whether the rest of the g 7 ations will sign up to the ban of the european council president has said that the you would 1st need to weigh up who targeting russian gold would hurt more moscow for you countries?
1:09 am
russia is one of the world's leading exports of gold. with 346 tons. mind that last year. 87 percent of that volume is exported with the u. k. in switzerland, the main importers, when it comes to russian, made gold jewelry. however, the main consumers are india and china. andrew k. p. a young, a prominent international china specialist says the ban would come back to bite to west lake and go including the other asian countries as a storage at the end of the day. busy bending and go, going to russia, receiving the revenue from go, i only encourages all countries to why vote because l company that we getting to news with. ready with and in this been useful as
1:10 am
a weapon. so i think at the end it's going to put the west on the side lines of the g 7 summit a burgeoning bricks. bro man was brewing. indian and argentinian, the leaders engaged in their 1st bilateral talks with beneficiaries, hoping to turn the 5 bricks economy into 6 t contributor r t to follow the discussions. interesting bee why the g 7 countries were holding up a joint grant against russia. indian graham, in, sooner in the movie was meeting argentine in prison. alberto, but now this to discuss their bilateral relationship. i didn't miss a fernandez, has already shown a key interest in joining breaks, a grouping or rosie russia, china, india, and south africa. then movie said that india has dude that
1:11 am
democracy can deliver, and india is now ready for growth and development. and india is going to be at the forefront of development and growth in the was x indian diplomat. rajiv dora believes that western leaders are too focused on sanctions against russia and should be taking their lead from india and argentina off the forward. the water does not work from the moment, decision and mouth with all these sanctions. and with all the issues connected with the food supply and saw, there is a defined restoration. if the single was what we see today in germany. and you said one thing that is more than focused on both issues, but the focuses on sanctions more sanction. the foreign national war and your friends, india,
1:12 am
and russia stood by each other or the last 75 years or 1947 when it became independent. and india has always acted and was just right and just and work at thank is that says 300 independent policy. and i think one of the things that india as for the this fight tremendous fisher some of the western front. b, as an example in all and be must maintain its friendship with everyone, especially with new britain like russia, russian lead forces say they are evacuating hundreds of civilians from the chemical plant in the lugens. the city of several done. you ask this as it is said that the cities industrial zone comes under full control of the local army. for almost a month intensive battles tore into these industrial zone at 7 on the scott ukrainian army used, the plant to shelter after russian forces took control of the city. amongst the
1:13 am
damage said to be carried out by key forces was the wants and destruction of a chemicals tank which led to the russian ministry of defense voicing. fears of chemical provocations. ukrainian soldiers have since left the plan to avoid large military losses. and our team visited the chemical works to see what the ukranian army left behind. yet another plant that was supposed to be the bastion of ukrainian defense that fell rather quickly. this is the territory of the assault factory of the assault chemical plant. and just yesterday, the last ukranian troops ran uphill towards the town of lucy chance. so now were among the 1st journalists who have been allowed in for some exclusive access. and we're basically we're about to see how they lived and what they've left behind,
1:14 am
thing . but everything has its own little drama with sarah, with this to teach with you. it's got it's not ready to rush her with, nor to lim was with deputy looking for jacqueline ruth. this was one of the firing positions of the ukrainian forces at the as a chemical plant. you can see here a western made our p g machine gun rounds. very interesting ones. the ones with the red tip, ah incendiary and the ones with the white tip, they have extra piercing capabilities. also here, you can see the results of the work of the russian artillery. maybe even jets.
1:15 am
because over here you can see the rounded hit, the roof destroying this position, the lessons value from of what they leave here goes to us and we use their weapons against them. the assistance provided ukraine, my nato was not affected if ukrainians do not have the spirit to fight the no weapons will help them. hey justin. it now we are going down to the fortified basement, which was built earlier for those working in the adult plan to shelter from bombs, not hillary. you can on the sun, how much the defense was prepared here to do with this is the sleeping quarters. you see the store, the ukrainian army could hold out for a very long time. this is one of the shelters at the resort plant where a platoon of ukrainian soldiers will slept. i had some rest here. there's a bunch of bunk beds over here on the other side of the room as well. and
1:16 am
a bit of an interesting detail here. parts of this place is the well separated with the un refugee agency world curtain and behind this curtain, ah, american made javelin missiles, sure. all of his pores on a student with one of machine, you're specially was of the this place give some serious flashbacks of another factory over the city of murray opal. the infamous as of style, where the as of neo nazi battalion was sheltering for quite a while. the only significant striking difference that i see here is that we find in every room these military grade respirators. since this one is a chemical plant, the similar little economy, we're ready to use chemical weapons. apparently they just didn't have time or didn't get some kind of order. thank god it didn't happen. now cave maintains that this was a tactical retreat that the troops,
1:17 am
that they fell back to the 45 and more advantageous positions over there. amid thing the fact that the set positions remained incomplete. encirclement, i'm english, done of reporting from the resort chemical plant art. see up to 5000 people, took to the streets of madrid to demanded the dissolution of the nato alliance. and the closure of its bases on spanish soil. protestors marched to through the spanish capital city, shouting slogans and brandishing anti military and anti nito banners. event was orchestrated ahead of the organizations today summit to be held in the city of your agenda is expected to focus on finland and sweden's bids to join the alliance as well as on an increase in military spending of up to 2 percent of g d. p. such topics as well as at nato activities in general continue to cause frustration with many people. i think the proposal to increase military spending to 2 percent is
1:18 am
truly barbaric because it is very clear that this spending is detracting from other items or nato as a criminal instrument of imposing imperialist measures on the rest of the world. and we should not belong in any way to this terrorist organization. it is that the existence of nato in itself is the only thing that sustains precisely this state of affairs. this system in which we live there is only a few who benefit from it and it will always be at the cost of the suffering of the working class cloud energy nice over nato, only perpetuates the logic of violence that destroys our cities. our society that generates violence and it only escalates it. meanwhile, russia has frequently accused nato of escalating tensions as the alliance has been conducting both conventional and nuclear training in europe. however, these concerns were ignored. in contrast to western hysteria towards the latest russian decision to help belarus with nuclear capable missiles, ortiz don quarter comments. as nato continues to simulate nuclear attacks in
1:19 am
eastern europe. russia has promised to be fought. bella roosters defense capabilities with nuclear capable missile systems and jet upgrades to change musician. i mean, within the next few months we'll transfer it's kinda and tactical systems to belarus, which can use both ballistic and cruise missiles and both the conventional and nuclear versions across the carry, the missiles can be upgraded yet the modernization should be carried out to the factories and russia, we will agree on how to do it and start training flight cruise accordingly. and of course, the mainstream media's framing, the move as a provocation by moscow since the beginning of russia's military operation in ukraine. they've tried to make it look as if it doesn't take to to dance the nuclear escalation. tango fresh war once again is bringing back cold war concerns about the threat of its nuclear arsenal. when vladimir putin announced his invasion of ukraine early on thursday morning, he warned that nobody should get in his way,
1:20 am
or they would suffer grave consequences. everyone understood that it was a reference to nuclear weapons threat from vladimir potent seeing this kind of behavior. and this kind of aggressive behavior, and this kind of nuclear specific rhetoric, no mention at all of the 200 strategic nuclear stockpiles that the u. s. has across 6 european nato states, or the over 250 nuclear capable planes that could deliver that colossal payload in a moment's notice. on top of that, a number of western officials seem to feel a little too comfortable about proliferating nuclear weapons. earlier this month, poland former defense minister and current m. p openly stated that the west has the right to give you crane nuclear weapons. it was only after that provocation that russia's parliament felt the need to respond. she kosky provokes a nuclear conflict in the center of europe. he doesn't think about the future of either ukraine or poland. if his proposals are implemented,
1:21 am
these countries will disappear as well as europe. then there's the u. k is defense minister who said he supported kiev in any of its negotiations after 2 russian pranksters posing as ukraine's prime minister, asked him about nuclear weapons. we would like to continue the nuclear program in order to protect ourselves from russia. it's it difficult question, but with think to started, if you could help us in this regard, it would be really important. okay, well i, i'm going to so on all those big questions. i think there's a question that i need to speak to my prime minister ukrainian president vladimir lensky. he made it clear even before russia's offensive began. the key of was considering scrapping. the budapest memorandum that prevents ukraine from having nuclear weapons. all things considered the west seems to have its wires crossed when it comes to who is provoking
1:22 am
a possible nuclear conflict. here mr. brewton has doesn't want to unnecessarily escalate matters. and nato knowing how paranoid native already is deployment of nuclear capable weapons is a signal that if nato wants to escalate that capability is there for mr. burton. i think that that's one of the things that can be discussed if, if the west and, and the russians can get together and talk. and, but the fact that nato countries, in fact do have nuclear weapons isn't, is, is another signal that it's not a defensive organization. that's not a defensive alliance, because when you have nuclear weapons, that's those are offensive. and i think that those and i think that, that undermines the argument by nato itself that it's, it's a defensive organization. there will be disastrous repercussions
1:23 am
for everyone because of the worsening global food crisis. that is a stark warning from the un secretary general. the main costs, the farmers are fertilizers and the energy fertilizers. prices have risen by more than half in the past year. and energy prices buy more than 2 service whole harvard through be heat, including rice and corn effects, billions of people across asia, africa, and the america's. no country will be immune to the social and economic repercussions of such a catastrophe. lisa hel, region that crosses central africa is expected to be one of the hardest hit with more than 10 and a half 1000000 people facing potential salmon. their conflicts in the vast area have left millions displaced. agency save that, it is extremely difficult to get help in while an unprecedented drought has led to water shortages. we spoke to al yona chenango, a regional representative of the red cross in kenya, who says that the impact of climate change and of the global situation in general
1:24 am
are making it harder for the african continent every day. well, working on the ground to support the people, it is true that the situation has been difficult for a long time because there isn't on there. the region has protract protected, conflicts that calls to displacement. like for example, if we speak about booking of a saw alone there, some are almost 2000000 people that are displaced within the country. and although also some 2000000 people that are that have a right to the country from other places in the region. and then also the climate shock, so more and more this region phase is facing the impact of the of the climate change. so all these are combined factors have an impact on the capacity of the families of the substitutes, subsistence farmers to produce food. and now of course,
1:25 am
with the world situation and the rising food in fuel prices, this is just added and not that layer of their ability on this all region that has already suffered from food insecurity in the past. despite the dire situation in the cell, the west is focusing its attention elsewhere through the crisis. the amount of money received in humanitarian aid accounts for just 9 percent of what the region needs. however, when it comes to assistance for ukraine, that you and the u. s. have this year already provided several 1000000000 euros for both military and humanitarian aid, and yet the west continues to blame russia for exacerbating world hunger. the same red cross representative says that with western focus elsewhere, it's difficult to attract attention to crisis that continue year after year. we try, of course, are to draw attention and not just to the conflict who are very high on the get receive, who received a lot of media coverage and receive
1:26 am
a lot of attention, but also to some of the protracted crisis that has been have been going for many years, and it is true that as opposed to some of the new or conflicts that receive more interest, more coverage or more humanitarians fans, it's just more difficult to attract at the same level of attention to situations that have been tracking for years or sometimes decades we need long term solutions and we need also innovative solutions because like, for example, if we speak about the impact of climate change like now, for example, if we speak about a hail they're facing, the was thrown in the decatur. also, the horn of africa is facing some of the was taught in like 40 years, but the situations we can no longer treat them as emergency situations because they
1:27 am
have become so frequent and so severe because of the increased impact of climate change on the continent. so we just need to come up with new ways to address those issues because they're long term issues, and we need to be very creative, finding long term, sustainable, innovative solutions to these problems. also in africa, mozambique is facing a surge in terror attacks by illness groups, many of which have been tormenting the country for years. and since the beginning of june 24, people including 2 police officers, have been killed as militants moved further south to conduct a guerrilla attacks and estimated 17000 people have now been displaced in the southeast african countries by the latest milton push viet with dish. but they did a group of font bandits arrived and seized an old person cut off his hat and gave it to some women to show it in the streets of the town. the lady who was carrying
1:28 am
the hat arrived in the streets and showed the person's head to us. they'll have the body right there off to doing so. they left. last year, the french president acknowledged the problem and said that he was willing to send troops to support the country's government. however, many people now say that the french military presence wasn't much of a help. some drawing parallels with paris is failure to help fellow african nation molly. earlier this year, a menu my chronic pulled his troops out of molly after 9 years with the number of terror attacks increasing by 56 percent between 20112021 or 2 spoke to mo loudy. why? second, a south african activist, scholar and writer who is convinced that former colonies only get involved in affairs on the continent to their own benefit. we know that a, you know, a, you know,
1:29 am
kind of a nice, you know, a stock number. i mean, do you see it in it has what it is. i need to be so hard to get out. you know, it kind of is that it was, it has never been, you know, if the a 1000000 times have been, she's only when they all come with a, you know, the 5. so it has never been in it. it is never going to be a b, a, b only b a. busy so
