a day. ah, i good, we'll just, jo, russia says it has pull its troops out from ukraine, snake island to facilitate the u. n. bond tech, supportive grain, cutting off key and speculation on the global food crisis. who i love to work with. that's how ukranian soldiers hiding behind the backs of elderly women were firing with these weapons. as the conflict, rage is on don bass residents cope with the horrific memories of abuse by cats, troops in their homeland. something russian president vladimir putin grounded genocide, a crime against humanity. that is the only definition for the actions of camps regime. no written, nor for freedom fighters. that's how ukraine's ambassador to germany has attempted

to vindicate to world war 2 not to collaborate and step in van dera. he was revered among ukrainian far right groups. the job of this crop absorbed by i did visit his grade because not only to me, but to many ukrainians. steppin band era embody someone who fights for freedom and ukrainian independence. ah one welcome to you. this is auntie international with the latest world news headlines. thank you for joining us this out. now we're starting with a major development and the ukraine conflict. moscow has withdrawn his trips from snake island, a strategic point in the black sea that was immediately taken by russian forces. when the convicts wrapped in late february, moscow stays the move isn't acts of good will to support you enough as to facilitate ukrainian grain exposed to the global market. so it's not the way you know. the russian armed forces completed their assigned tasks on snake island and withdrew their garrison from there on june 30th as

a gesture of goodwill. reasonable. thereby, we are showing to the global community that russia is not hindering un efforts to organize a humanitarian corridor to transport agricultural goods from ukrainian territory. this decision will not allow the key of to speculate about an impending food crisis by saying it's impossible to transport grain due to russia's total control of the northwestern part of the black seen up on the truck. that's good life. now, while he's ramon cars to have joining us from on, yes, government, good to see you. what do we know about this gesture by russia? while our 1st of all a bit of far back grounds on this island in the black sea, off the coast of jazz, so all ukrainian troops, they surrendered it back in february in the early stages of russia as a special military operation. back then, i q authorities claimed that a russia at sacked and they killed marines that were stationed on that islands. and

they instantly proclaimed all of them as heroes. however, it later turns out that those elite marines are actually surrendered to russia and we're all alive and so well in captivity in crimea. now since then, ukraine tried, tried to a tags mean the island and several times in a, b. r stands of fashion. however, that was out without any success in it. it actually costs ukraine, the lives of scores, of its special forces troops and also loss of expensive equipments as well. now russia is a showing this gesture of goodwill by actually leaving the island on this means that ukraine can no longer claim that so roches somehow restricted the trade or any type of trade leads, or anybody else carrying

a grain or any other types of goods from leaving the countries that sort of soil waters. however, the question at this point that remains will ukraine and use this as a yet another p r stand up or actually starts at the mining or it's cold line from its very own explosives that are basically filled on the coastline. odessa and other places, i understand that russia has also confirmed a prisoner exchange with ukraine. what we know about that, ah, well, a russian defense ministry says that it carried outside direct orders of presidents of letting their foods in and exchanged 144 ukrainian captives for an equal number of a russian soldiers. and they said that practically all of those are returning to russia

. don't ask or la guns people's republics are injured. and some of those former on captives are actually sustained and very heavy injuries. and they are all now being helped by emetics in russia. now, when asked about the details of this exchange, russian president says, spokesman as me, trip to scoff, said that said the return of all those soldiers fighting for the people's rights to live and exist here in finance and elegance to people's republic is the most important thing for now, for them to return home the rest of the prerogative of the defense ministry. now, russian officials are saying that there are more than $6000.00 ukranian troops currently in captivity, who have surrendered or were taken captive over the last 4 months of special

military operation. as, as he corresponded among concert many thanks for those details from on. i appreciate it. in class life to author and journalist thomas, we're open now to discuss this further. many thanks for joining us on the program. now let's say say that putting as trips and st island basically means that kids can no longer kids. moscow blocking both crucial exports of ukrainian grain. so does that mean it's now fully a to k of to resume those statements to global markets? well 1st of all, key if announced openly that they will not export great until they receive our weapons. they were mentioning anterior anti ship weapons rockets from the west. so in general, it was, it was a lie that rushes blocking the export. i'm afraid if russia really thinks that this will help, it will, i think it will not because kiff will still claim that this, the russian fleet in the back lexie and so on. a pity is that a key of is, is an honest. so whether this will help,

i have my doubts. i russia says the key of these to remove it. c minds from the coastal areas to provide the safe transport routes the grain cargo ships. does it look like ukraine is i totally prepared to do that. i until no, we didn't have any cmos. as a, as i said, they openly said when there was negation negotiations in turkey about this question . they openly said from key of that they are not and not exporting any grain until they get the weapon stay one from the west. i didn't hear any anything different by now, so i have my doubts as as head. i'm keith is using this as a, as a propaganda instrument and i think they will continue as long as they want. yeah. what like to say here is already claiming the russian pull out from st. island is in fact to k military victory for ukraine. and what's your take on that statement? surprise? oh yeah, i'm surprised about this and, and to be honest, this is quite fresh, fresh news, and we have a message from both sides and not quite sure what happened there. um,

well it b g f week 3. i don't think so because as far as i know that they didn't claim that they have so just there right now. so i don't really know what to think about this by that by now. and me more rush, arizona has also confirmed and it's carried out the biggest ever exchange of military prisoners with ukraine and how are the thousands more ukrainians are still set to be in rushing custody? do you think we can expect even biggest? what deals in the near future? ah, well, i was surprised by this deal. on the one hand, you know, i think it's, it's a good deal to save injured, injured people and let them go. on the other hand, well, i don't know what they, what they were negotiating. it was a surprise for everybody. so we don't know the story which, which happened before and, and why this exchange not happened. so it's quite speculative to say whether this will continue or not, because we don't know the reasons why it happens or throw in journalists thomas recommend. thanks for your insight. we appreciate your time as

a conflict. wages on another part of ukraine and dawn bass rush is defense, ministry has released this footage of the sea bass missiles being fired at targets inside ukraine. moscow say the high precision strike destroy the key command and control posting ukraine's region. more than 20 ukranian troops and over a foreign mercenaries is that you have been killed on wednesday. a warning were about shaving glasses and the images from the don't. yes, for public lead, dozens of unmarried bodies are still be found on the streets of the town of 2nd weeks after it came under control of russia as full of intense fighting of nathan military vehicles, for schools of weapons and munitions, hardly abandoned by ukrainian troops. as they fled at that position, and was life gradually returns to norman and the ravaged dawn by city of mario paul after it was taken by russian troops. some locals have shed fresh detailed accounts

of the use of human shields by ukrainian troops. while i was stuck with, that's how ukrainian soldiers hide behind the backs of elderly women were firing with these weapons. what severely what the king is to me. i would go cuz there was also a case when our neighbor, sir, again stood in the way of a tank that was going to enter his yard. that despite him riding everywhere that there were children in the area, what are you spot ukrainian authorities claiming there is no neo nazi ideology in the country, care of some basket that the germany has openly praised, notorious world war 2 era narcy collaborate to step and bon dera, doing an interview on german media, a dresser. as an ambassador, you have visited the grave of stepan, ben dara! you've said you are amazed by hand as to let's start with that with him. how long have you been amazed by stepan, ben. dara. and why? i never said i was amazed by him for a yes you did multiple times. i did visit his grave because not only to me,

but to many ukrainians. so stepan, band era, embody someone who fights for freedom and ukrainian independence for britain. laws don't apply to freedom fighters like him. can you deny that he was an anti semite infant? will you admit that he and his people were involved in the murder of 800000 jews, chemistry or no, he was not involved in it, but i li, there were pamphlets passed around when the germans entered. elvin same people as most of this you have to know that russians polls hungarians and jews are our enemies. izzy does, will eliminate them for you must know that i am sila, your fury of stepan ben, darrell, as to what kind of pamphlets were these students when the germans invaded the city? in 1941 van dera supporters spread these pamphlets among the population, which was not yet living under occupation it up. ben dares, people bonded with the germans. it's perfectly obvious and to us, i just feel yet your point. and i will not tell you today that i distance myself from back me off on the sincere russian president vladimir peyton has spoken out in

condemnation of the ukrainian military's campaign and gone bound. say that the past 8 years, he says there's only one way to describe it. genocide, committed by cubes, forces against the people of the war torn waiting. i see a through the deal over were of use fisher new strategic washes, open to a dialogue on providing strategic stability and securing the non proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and improving arms control and other origin that the all of this will make it possible to avoid crises like the current one and on bass, where people are being protected from a genocide, a crime against humanity. that is the only definition for the actions of keeps regime veronica, there's still plenty of work of july. we only have, like one patient also shared his take on ne, says, ongoing expansion on the blogs labeling of russia as his most significant threats. the presidents that the u. s. lead alliance has actually been plotting against moscow for years. so store, understood, and still the fact that nato has been preparing for an anti russian action since

2014 is no news to us. this is exactly what explains or decisive measures to protect our interests. nato is the rudiments of the past era. the ear of the cold war where have been repeatedly told that nato has changed. that is more of a political block now. but they have been trying to find an opportunity to boost it as a military organization. so here we go. they are now doing it. there's nothing new here. well, of course, let's not forget that this came off the back off of that decision from nato to say that russia marks. how is the most significant threat of it faces to its security at the moment down, of course that are membership green lighting for sweden and finland to join the alliance. i present puting talking about all of these issues saying that, you know, when it comes to finland and sweden, everything was completely fine with the relationship with russia. but there will be tensions now. this is likely to change. let's not forget that

a finland in particular, has a border with russia that span some 1300 plus kilometers. and this idea put in said that nato could be putting military infrastructure as well as military personnel will be seen as a threat. that threat will be matched and any personnel, any infrastructure will also be mirrored by russia. so this really could ratchet up the tensions between russia and this alliance of nato members. and these comments are called come right on the heels of the g 7 summit. formerly the g 8, russia used to be a part of this group. i'm talking about what the president had to say about russian west relations, where he clearly was there pointing out the obvious, hey, when he said that the relationship between the west, this is the g 7 and russia is not good at the moment. this of course, comes off to that g 7 summit where they've, once again reaffirmed that they're going to support ukraine. i knew he talked about

they so the see being something that's not going to be necessarily helpful. across in libya, where a power struggle shows no signs of abating more than a decade, often, nato bombs, the country that you, an advisor to tripoli, has apparently offered the oil, which nation to trade its main export for free elections. hello. we are working together with the international community to create a temporary financial mechanism to manage libby as huge oil revenues. why is this necessary? because as long as there is no movement towards elections, as long as there is unlimited income from oil, the struggle for executive power in libya will continue for the next 40 years. therefore, it is necessary to reduce the appetites of rivals in the struggle for executive power. amazon stephanie has a long record and working as a u. s. diplomat, and here i'm speaking rural, she's definitely a product of the us state department. now. she's one of the top un officials dealing with the ongoing problems in the living room. and apparently,

she's not alone in thinking these methods could work. this mechanism could provide a short term pseudo governmental function until elections take place. so the sooner that happens, the better for all libyans. now, the record in the united nations in libya, has left much to the desire than 11 years since the nato bombing campaign toppled viewsonic socialist government that industrialized and essentially created modern libya. now 11 years is not a short amount of time. hillary clinton was so excited and saying they were on the road to democracy in progress. i'll say this for the libyan people. i think president obama made the right decision at the time. and the libyan people had a free election the 1st time since 1951. and you know what they voted for moderates . they voted with the hope of democracy, emissions in the country continue to be believe the country currently has over a 179000 internally displaced persons. 803000 people currently require

humanitarian assistance to certainly not the human rights paradise that nato promised when they swooped in promising they would you supposedly topple a dictator, but it gets worse. so now, after toppling their government and casting the country into years of chaos, the u. s. a is saying that the best way to move forward is depriving libyans of the revenue created by their own natural resources. they are rallying the international community for this aim. with oil production now slowing down in a country that was once africa's top wayllace border. the oil prices are set to keep rising once again as world leaders and producers negotiate. caleb martin artsy new york, a senior foreign policy express at jones hawk john hopkins university, hafez al glee. i'll say there should be an inquiry into these recent plans by the un. it is a normal edged sword. them in the world still remembers very clearly would have been more or less the same thing was proposed for iraq with the oil for

food, a scandal which ended up becoming a tour debacle of corruption. i'm now on the other hand, yes, the struggle libya, a great deal of it is over the oil revenue. so you have an argument on both sides that the real question is, what is that mechanism they are proposing and how really secure it is and how accountable it will be i, you know, them record as, as your report, just into it directly into that. and i did mention not only libby ever throughout much of the world, especially in africa and then the lease has been really quite 7 and 10 australian say that government alliance with washington only increases the chances of war in asia. gates that own countries interests,

as according to an annual, a foreign policy poll conducted by the now we institute a prominent sidney based think tank. but it's one of the concerns, more than 80 percent of australian say the alliance is important for their national security. as i mean, growing tensions between beijing and cambra as for the 1st time, australia's leader has been attending a native summit. time has warned that the expansion of the u. s. military times in the asia pacific region could provoke a confrontation. political commentator allie risk stays, washington saber rattling, could really bring more to asia america often. megs, rush decisions to go to war. that also, i think, is another perception in the australia mindset, which we can conclude from this poll, which was made i think the strains of, in recent history, the bush administration, for example, did resorted to what it called pre emptive war with invasions. oh yeah. iraq and

afghanistan. and so i think it is american militaristic turned and sees. i think bigger, straightened spill, cornwall. so be translated now in the age of pacific region. so the astronomers look at america's research history about, look at america's threat perception now. and i draw these conclusions. i got a close alliance. what my share to do to deter chima could also share to bring about a war. ah, a democratic republic of congo has reopened his borders with lawanda amber, randi easing diplomatic tensions in the region. the central african nation temporarily closed his borders after a congolese soldier was shot dead. barbara london, police, an exchange of fire in the congolese city of goma. the incident coincide with an escalation and diplomatic tensions between the neighbors, congo is accused rwanda of supporting a militant group and $23.00 fighting in its east. that organizations leaders come

from the same ethnic group as we're one. does that president and 23 is named after an agreement signed back in 2009. so some of them officially become part of the d. r. c's armed forces. however, in 2012, the group claims the government had violated the agreement and seized goma from which it was soon forced out by the congolese military. it has recently been classified as a terrorist organization, alex report to brings as this story from goma. terrorism is one of the main concerns for the people here in gama, in democratic republic of congo. it affects hunger, safety, and education. in fact, all the aspects of their lives to touch on commerce usa. we're concerned about the n 23 cherished group because it spreads to fake promise that it will liberate the congolese people. we don't want the same situation and go monica m avante quasi m. 23 commit atrocities and causes massive population displacement in our country. as

you and the victims are always congolese people then went russell bennett, but at the m 23, we supported by country sanchez, amanda and trenda. remember, the movement is now categorized as a terrorist organization, and we will defend our tory, the much when it's a movement known as em. tennessee is the biggest terrorist threat in this region. it wants to this of allies and controls areas which in mine are always sources and allowed almost daily attacks on the can chef as government. early june, the m $2.00 and $3.00 shelves on military position, killing 2 soldiers and enduring 5 later it's captured they cd of luna, gunner 60 kilometers northeast of gama. marking a dramatic escalation intention. the government lacks sufficient manpower and we celsius to post the rebel back. and the police,

the entire country kinshasa needs the help of its neighbors in fighting the terrorist and welcomes we sent king as in. now's men. that is deploying the original forces to assist 8. but the government doesn't want rhonda to be the part of a resent united nations report saying that they empathy are planning to seize the business district in gama. if they do, the dia may collapse, because this is extremely important to have the replace fuser and will be says probably beyond its borders. gillam below me for the gama green energy plan for face to fresh backlash in the netherlands, where farmers have blocked highways with tractors to protest against a government pledge to reign in pollution emissions. while the 40000 farm was caught traffic chaos around the country last week,

some of them lit fires outside town halls and thumbs menu on the streets to protest against the government's decision. such officials have mandated a reduction of pollution in rural areas which could cause farmers to reduce their livestock government ministers have described to me as an unavoidable transition to green energy. me more. a new countries have agreed on a new proposal to combat climate change by phasing out the sale of new petroleum burning cost by 2035. the move comes and i did energy supply crisis ignited by western sanctions against russian that they require new cars sold in the u to emit 0, c o 2 emissions from 2035. that will be made possible that will make it impossible to sell new internal combustion engine vehicles and his both big changes in germany's permanent automotive injured industry. the proposal has not gone down well among auto manufacturers as the industry is a dominant contribution to the country's economy. me. well fellow you say it's it's

legal guerria. portugal romania answer back. yeah, i've also said suggested pushing back the phase outdated. 2040 independent journalist on the car, unless charlie boyle thinks that such green plants cannot be realized so quickly. and they will not be supported by the population. the long term plans that they how's that been agreed and not viable now because of what happened in the last 6 months and i should have thought of them before. and if i wanted less reliance on certain countries, so i went expose, i should have thought about this 5 years ago. so even the targets that go and not really attainable people already forgetting about the climate crisis. they're already, they're just looking at their energy bills, right. now, and for me, i mean, every time i go to mcdonalds, the price seems to go up 1030 percent. but it's okay for me cuz i can take it. but there are millions of people in this country that carp, this is the problem. so now it's not sustainable in the short term,

but all of these things, these projects like 5710 years to read and get going and asked us sir fossil fuel project, by the way, thanks joining us here. nancy international. we're back at the top of the hour with the latest. ah

what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy even foundation, let it be an arms race is often very dramatic. development only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very difficult time time to sit down and talk with his talk and just look up for literally a muscle around noon. she doesn't being in the green shield on a nurse to me as possible. mama could go through 6th grade to somebody to look up to his ashley. uh, this one. it was a duplicate pieces girls down to come here from one to 3 for the cool position. did you, did you bring out an up of the key for the chino,

brian's to metal for phones or something like that? and then we got that boy. did i see or anything like that? i had some grain, lisa have them awe on february. the 24th 2022, russian launched a special military operation in ukraine. the campaigns 1st major battle was an operation to bring the city of murray. you pulled back under the control of pro russian. don bass with

god. how will i get with almost 3 months now? alexander had a cough skis, unit made up of volunteers from dun ask. has been fighting on the murray open front if you prefer talking from previous because apparently i said your young ladies are still at the foot. you as they start to your direction, you brought the paper,

looks the i'm capable of postal room, you might get a but you sort of a little budget because usually ah, oh, thank angie 14, how kosky realized they would have to fight in is the ukraine's pro russian cities as protests on keys, my dan escalated into st. warfare with someone with nicholas which he wasn't civil then. yes. get anybody to us when you're sitting in a shilling system problem. oh sure i'm.
