nathan with heavy shelling by ukrainian forces all done, yes, get city and it's i'd skirts these one person did as well as a 1000000 infrastructure damage. also, i had on the program you credit on troops prepared to defend leasing talent for months and months everywhere. with their dug out, red blood food, they take a lot of work. our crew explore is what had been the last ukrainian stronghold and then luke gal republic. on the same day, russian and allied forces secured full control of the region

with the price for natural gas in europe skyrocketed. since march top and german officials are wanting, the worst is yet to come off. as they turn to cats are seeking alternatives to russian gas and supplies. and then move on. big people to anger is being fueled by the ever increasing prices up the pump cells. they take to the straits, to make their feelings clear on bow a for every year tuning in from across the globe today. welcome to moscow onto our international. my name's unit new. we begin with the latest from the conflict in don boss where ukrainian troops are actively shelling residential areas of done yet . city. these are said to be the latest pictures from eye witness. you can see

artillery shells hitting a car park and sparking a huge fire. there are no reports as yet of casualties from the strike. key of forces have intensified their attacks on civilian infrastructure than you had scanned in surrounding areas over the past month. while earlier today shelling had a railway station on the food market. there have also been reports done, an apartment block was struck in the attack. one person was killed in the shelling woods when you may find the following images disturbing. yeah, we want to tell you about this woman who has killed after her car was hit by shrapnel after a shell apparently landed close by her husband was taken to hospital with injuries while it comes as the entire neighbouring lou ganske people's republic was taken under full control of by russian led forces on sunday.

russia's defense minister reported up the development happened at directly to president putin came after this had chance can nearby areas were secured. now the city had been the last major stronghold of ukrainian forces in the republic. pierceman do not support the defensive operation, was successfully carried out to liberate the territory of the against people's republic. the total losses of the crating army is $5469.00. at this moment, russian forces de mining the city of listed chances and surrounding areas. delivering humanitarian aid and providing medical assistance to affiliate support, which allows you korean trip through a 4th retreat from las a chance they left 4 to 5 positions abandoned. here you can see footage of some of the deserted trenches. ortiz, senior correspond morocco, the visited, the city of the bottle for control of it came to an end getting into least chance is no easy task. ukrainian forces blew every bridge to the north, south,

east and west of the city. there was never much concern for civilian. well being. is a chance was always looked down upon by ukrainian nationalists as an inferior pro russian city. luncheon hannibal, i says we're out of severe who of rub branch on on the water. right. so no one expected ukrainian forces and lisa chance to collapse so quickly and so completely the 2 months key of promised lucy chance wouldn't be broken easily for 2 months. ukrainian troops prepared to mouth the fence that would wolf marry you both. what is entirely apparent is the ukrainian troops prepared to defend lucy chunk for months and months everywhere. one above the city, there are galsen trenches,

flood cliff. they take a lot of work. every major intersection in the city is locked up, like least with rows of vehicles. complicated from civilians as well as broken down vehicle that you can see it. intersection and all 4 roads needing here are blocked off. something happened. something happened that forced ukrainian troops thousands upon thousands of them to leave, to flee, sometimes to rod. from what we gathered, speaking to locals. this organization was rife, the myriad of ukrainian units were demoralized and believe that they were being abandoned at least a chance. when one unit decided to retreat, it began and the avalanche eventually no one was left. the city had that suburbs were liberated entirely in just ours. my landfill, mister johnston,

we knew they had a great concentration of troops here and that there were many civilians. so we learned them out of the city and slowly whittled them down. they didn't have the strength, material, or spirit to resist here. all of ukraine's military might. and you could say the army itself was in mary. you paul, hong kong, they were apparently trained, apparently prepared and apparently knew how to fight. and yet you saw how our fighters beat them here. they do not last 15 minutes in a fight. they did in mary you, paul, but they do not hear. the people have lisa chance go, overjoyed, the city is largely intact. new mary, you pull here. the fighting has ended and spirits have lifted. i want to shout with joy. just imagine where citizens of russia can you imagine how we lived here? not very well. she want,

i want to hold in my arms so as sanchez while fighting has been for mine some hell the ukrainians behaved like in humans. thank you so much, larry, to the liberators. glory to the russian soldier. if we had not waited for you. i dunno. we'll, we'll have happened to us. we prayed for you. thank you for coming. unfortunately, it's not entirely over yet a tremendous amount of minds and booby traps were plotted in and around the city. worse, many ukrainian troops have got into hiding. and the now being rooted f. this is one of the barracks where you can improve the mix of the said there's a variety of different services involved. territory, the french frauds as well as regular, as well as national thor. mixed up. can they leave, did well squalid condition put in every room that we did with her military

uniform, scattered above. and that is a major problem because when you've easy credit and so just as they felt that they were being abandoned, they took off a uniform, stopped and changed into civilian clothes and mixed with the local population. catching them is a matter of time. the cities still being cleared and more being found all the time . but the liberation have lucy chance is a turning point. lugens is now entirely free of ukrainian troops, and the ukrainian military has demonstrated. it is no longer in the fighting shape . it once was wide gas, the of r t, from the la ganske people's republic. ah, natural gas prices in your pump showed up to more than $1700.00 per cubic meter since march, that says european search for alternatives to russian. gauss,

top german officials are wanting the situation in their country could become much worse if russian gas is no longer received and there are average winter temperatures. our current reserves will be enough for only a month or 2, taking into account our obligations for gas deliveries to other european countries . we have a real emergency because of the gas shortages, entire branches of industry are in danger of permanently collapsing and the aluminum glass. the chemical sectors, such a collapse would have massive consequences for the entire economy and jobs in germany. well, europe led by germany is seeking other gas suppliers to replace russian energy. for example, cats are, but the middle east nation is seeking a long term agreement. while the e u needs a shorter deal to hit its pollution reduction goals, the much vaunted ones, not the potential agreement if signed, will also need a few years to build the infrastructure needed. a german delegation led by the vice

chancellor robert have visited guitar earlier, but no deal has been reached us yet. well, i am delighted to welcome live on to the program though dr. kelly's l. cutter specialist in monetary policy, political economy from cad. tar. hello to use or top german politician house call the economics minister's visit to guitar, quote, well organized, but so far ineffective is not a 1st summary. why did my professor once told me that service must be sent to me? might not be for your patient. the lady and your vision on the line we see is unfair as much as the west sea invasion of ukraine biology and how, what are the, why are they endorse and the support, the 1st one,

they condemn the 2nd one and they support the defendant. your brains, likewise when the united states and been in the company. so this is the standard that you see the god think this partnership issue with and yet i'm and i think this is we have to be mature. this is the long term issue. i will have to wait and see and that there might be a deal in the, in the making. so i think it's much more indeed latest. and you cannot pam that there is kind of a deal whereby supply about 20 to 25 percent of german need over the course of 2 years or so while germany been a to issue being 10 minutes. so i think it's the mature long term partnership, and we have with and see, can i have the vice president of the christian democratic union?

also stated berlin is unable to answer questions on any gas deal with tar. what stumbling blocks could be holding up a deal from what i hear? no, from what i know from the or the the point of discussion or issues in regarding duration of the contract was a want to 20 years in the pricing. and this is a $20.00 cost cut are where a kind of structure is contract and i turn it to choice for gas destination exports for. but this is complicated by the german government requirement to use a car. my mission by 8 percent,

by the year 2040 basically over the proposed period of the contract and also wanted to link it to the dutch benchmark. the 2nd or 3rd point, not a 3rd country in europe, but this is a boy by the you. so as you can see, each country is searching or aiming for a space, and there's other wants to maximize the transition over. so scared us resources over this, coming to that, which is b to b, b for boy, and dusty and wants to maximize the transition of it in order. so to, to, to support the diversification process of the economy. and to limit the dependence on highly and source of resources while germany wants to limit dependence on on wants to maximize diversification of

a resources. so the, these are their stumbling a issue as i know, i think in should probably they would have, they would reach agreement for the benefit of both of them. if they are to go to, to construct a partnership and proven to be a reliable source of energy supply in the war, even at the peak, a city, the supplier, i got to so i can provide the songs over stable and reliable. and if jeremy was also to get a price, i think it's fair to ask for these kinds of conditions just to briefly touch on another point, if we can, there are reports emerging from some media outlets. that guitar has forbidden

germany from forwarding gas to other european countries. do you think that's something that berlin would have agreed to, i say, is facing capable demand condition, strong constraint even prior to the surprises in your mind, wants to maximize the addition of its resources in order to support the transition over to the economy from highly dependent on hydro, once more diverse by the economy and germany, likewise to me might be lying on russia today, most sort of energy supply from russia. and it's for the 2 kinds of partnership. i think it's probably around these 2 major points. you know, that are wants to maximize asian, maximize and come from not given the identity of choices that have been germany wants to minimize the reliance on russian diversity. if i think

the country might be profitable to reach this kind of an agreement where germany can get favorable price long term as the pure reliable supply of guys from for not for not to not community. all right, at the us. you know, also try to reduce its dependence on rushing gas by pushing countries, including could tar to increase its supplies, is not likely to happen. what there is not much, particularly over the short term, you know, you're always importing about 155000000000 meter. all guys, and that's about 90 percent of what it's about 90 percent of uses. use 175175000000000 meter. all sporting

144000000000 meter basically mostly construct then or long term basis to do a year. so there's not much left of that or can do or spar sharp on the short term . however, the plan to expand the production even price at this price is a long time ago. discarded was hosted by the make. and now there is the managed to be production to $52000000.00 on a year in addition to the $7000000.00 that's produced by about of that would make $110000000.00 on. but that's going to be better by the year 2025. so it's like 3 years or 3 years from now, so there is nothing that can do or what a short term is. dead energy because in your on

just one last question on a different subject. if i may, your hosting the 2022 world cup later this year, we wish you every success with it. just on an issue surrounding it, could tar as a country with strict rules against the l. g. b t. community could the opportunity to attend the finals happening this year if for those minority spark clashes with local authorities, even diplomatic spots between guitar and western countries. what i hope not to buy one of those, but then that shouldn't be any then that would be in for some spark any glasses or distribute depending on other countries because we expect people are low or district the lower the country. i expect people to spend, no, i'm in this group is not basically not they don't have to misquote them not to

standing for human rights issue like i'm in an article or black or i can try and or try a new woman who jumping right on these kind of things, i mean i actually had a cold on their idea against the buddy nature of the human being implemented. that's the idea that i implement that by the once you come abroad or you want to when we choose to invest in that case and the one what then what is the point was trying to know when i get it to norman unemployment on currently and on people, i mean, this is like, and we have to limit desperate of that. do you see the district

of affection or so, or any message or any code particularly to attract they should be should not be allowed to be truly not allowed? particularly even the, you know, what is the, what's that point you're right here to, i think i enjoy portable. what's the point that you want to stay in this, this kind of a, among the among those should be, this should be treated as protected. and i agree with the government and also for their own protection. this wouldn't propagate open, you know, the, in the public product action. so it's sort of their own protection to buy the lot. well, many thanks for coming in the program and sharing your thoughts with all the subjects with it, especially in monetary policy and political economy. doctor colored elf culture.

thank you very much. now a special session of the european parliament will be held today looking into the lethal clustering between moroccan security forces and migrants on the border between the spanish enclave and morocco. the actions of spanish authorities in the instant, however, or not on the agenda does despite the countries prime minister admitting at the countries involvement in the recent quarter. but until we are talking about an attempt to assault the fence, that was evidently carried out in an aggressive way. and therefore, what spain state security forces and moroccan guards did was defend spain's borders while of thousands of people across spain protested against the police violence. on friday, the $37.00 migrants were killed. last month they attempted to storm the spanish enclave of malea. protestors gathered in a central madrid square sitting here holding signs and banners,

and generally making their feelings, videos and photos of the bloody border incident sparked outrage among human rights groups as well as out the united nations. well, funny shows hundreds of migrants involved. i'm just a warning, you may find the following images disturbing aside from. busy those killed hundreds were also wounded, including a $140.00 border guards. the u. n. c's moroccan authorities use buttons and stones to repel the migrants as they tried to steal offense to enter. what is the you territory? rights activists claim police deliberately refrained from helping the injured or we spoke to a global policy specialist with a focus on the social, economic and political development of africa. who believe the e, you desperately needs to strengthen europe's migration system. i think the situation very trusted because it's piece of the fact of a violation of human rights, of violation of human dignity and absolute disrespect to vulnerable people who are

trying to escape prosecution and escape violence and escape wherever they're coming from. and trying to seek a new life, i think is very tragic that the comments made by the spanish president and the reaction by the moroccan hispanic government regarding the situation. and i think it's very sad and tragic and people should really be disappointed. morocco seem to have evidence and pain praise the police action. is this even acceptable? i don't think it's acceptable because these are, these are states or consider respectable, global global sphere. and they should conduct and independent investigation attributes, actions, and hold people accountable for complicit and committing such a trusting. it says massacres. and this is completely unacceptable and sustain. and the repetition of both countries in many european countries fear that the entry point for a country due to the sentence as the meaning of one person is able to enter the spain, italy, they can find their way to other countries, which is

a big loss. i think this is an issue that has to be addressed. how can they ensure that they have a strong immigration system that enhances coordination between the different members state, but also ensures the human dignity of some of these migrants for playing conflict, putting environmental disaster and 3 different challenges. ok, no, the story to tell you by today is pakistan. authorities say 18 people of quote died because of injuries sustained during unrest in the countries autonomous province of colored cal pac stone. a further, 240 were wounded according to the officials. last week, the central asian nation on field plans to curtail the autonomy of the region sparking violent protest. let's go live now to our teeth, maria phenomena who is in the back capital tash, can hi maria and d tickets through the proposed changes. and of course, the situation as regards those protests yes. hi unit the dudley clashes in the countries north western region erupted last week,

but that's only on monday that it was back. authorities confirmed the casualties including among civilian population, the protestant protocol paxton, or were prompted by planned constitutional amendments that would have stripped the republic that by the way, occupies wrong one 3rd of the countries territory of its autonomy status basically, and any form of local self governance and actually take its right to secede from us . pakistan local people were not quite happy about that. and they took to the streets to protest tropi. after that, there was bec leader flew to the region and made a turn around promising to drop the amendments to the constitution regarding the republic status. and early on monday, the country's parliament voted to maintain the republics 70. they protest fled to violent clashes between demonstrators and police. let's take a look now, but i have to warn you that some years may find the following. images disturbing. ah,

mm hm. i was a state of emergency has been declared throughout the whole region for a month. shortly after the clashes erupted with authorities claiming some demons, treaters attempted to seize the power. it is reported now that more than 500 people have been detained. hand the countries president warrens that a new call for separate seasonal mass ride will be firmly crushed in line with the current legislation. back to you. right. thanks very much for taking throughout ortiz maria finish. there live in new spec us them. western sanctions against russia are being felt right across the world. in the east

african countries moves on. big angry locals took to the streets over surging fuel prices, the nation's energy regulatory authority, and on some friday, yet another price. the 3rd price pump. since the beginning of the year, the increase is also affecting the price of other basic products such as rice, oil, sugar, bread and transport ortiz paula slayer is in the capital and put this is matoney terminal port in mozambique capital city. the push ok. it's been expanding for the last 2 years because of donations from the united states and european union. but the timing could not be more off, especially since traffic to here has declined significantly. ever since russia and ukraine faced off. or does the cereals fertilizers and feel hadn't been coming into the country because they can't get out of russia and ukraine way? supply chains are heavily disrupted. it puts african, a very difficult situation. as we know, food security in africa is

a big issue. and africa has not yet self sufficient in terms of grain production. so being put in a position where you have to choose between people needs food wise and then the global scale of what's happening is very difficult. and so very hard question to ask of africa. what is done generally is spike the food prices on the international market. let's talk about flowers, specifically, even if your country's not sourcing directly from russia, ukraine, the scarcity or the fears of scarcity from the union in russian markets, and driven prices up across the board. and so you have the african countries have to deal with that. when a region bred are one of the things that government subsidizes here, along with fuel. the prices of food fuel and fertilize is not only here but across africa, a climbing to echoed highs. most beacons can already feel the pinch and things are

only going to get worse fe glove. i mean the, if the government doesn't do anything, it's bad because a lot of people are starving here in mozambique. they have to change things because we are suffering a lot more. they need to talk in parliament like we want to live in peace and we want to eat because people are starving here before most. i'm glad we depend on our monthly salary, but it doesn't cover half of what we need to buy. so fuel and food are things we struggle with in our country, and the people from western countries send money, but it doesn't cover even 50 percent of the countries needs. so it's not fair. the west isn't suffering from this. we are a detector in mozambique. i'm worried about my son and what the future will be like . everything is bad here at the prices are getting higher. how are we going to stop it? i'm worried for the future in the middle law. mozambique has never grown enough crops to feed herself. there is no capital investment from government, no commercial farming and o phone investment because of the political instability. the barren fields show

that local supplies have been used up. add to that the drought the last 2 years, and the result is starvation, hunger, and malnutrition. mostly because amongst the 10 paras countries in africa, situated on the south eastern coast of africa, it's often ignored by the world. but the crisis here is very real and growing by the day policy r, r t, the pu to mozambique. or i time for another visit to the cross talk studios next, coach peter. and guess right ahead as they talk of the question, are there any adults left sticklers this is oriented ah.
