ah, when a european parliament back separate opposed to 2 i guess son, mutual or energy to the use list of climate friendly sources. as the lot energy crisis sends electricity prices storing to all time done. yet again comes under a heavy shelling from the ukranian army new case daily murray newspaper blames moscow for it despite the city being under the control of russian lead forces also ahead. mm. as you can see, the eddie cope with having achieved their objectives off safely out of the battle zone. an rti, cru films, russian helicopters, striking ukrainian military positions on the front lines,

the russian lead forces continue their advance westbrook with subbing at arch a canadian cultural event. drops plans to screen the new documentary following outrage from the countries indian community over the filmmakers. controversial poster of a hindu goddess smoking a cigarette with just after 7 in the evening here in moscow this wednesday july. the 6th time you know, neil and you're welcome to the mid week global news roundup. the european parliament has rubber stamped on each proposal to add gas and nuclear power plants to the blocks list of climate friendly energy, which is it will enable investments in the sectors to be labeled as green from the start of next year. as the commission believes, there is a role for private investment in gas and nuclear activities in the green transition . it has proposed the classification of certain fossil gas and nuclear energy

activities as transitional activities contributing to climate change mitigation off the car. i feel badly for environmentalists at this point. they must feel so gas slit right now. i mean at this rate by next week, smokestacks are going to be deemed green energy. can you imagine being environmentalists today and being in a conversation with the leadership of the european union and trying to argue that gas fossil fuels are bad for the environment and suddenly they're telling you in some cask i ask logic that no, actually they're not the european union is officially just move the goal posts on what constitutes green energy voting today in brussels, to label these investments in gas and nuclear energy as green. and it seems that just yesterday, germany was pushing to accelerate its renewable energy expansion to 80 percent of the country's power mixed by the year 2030 and the conflict in ukraine. only major

music army minister, robert havoc, double down on that promise. on the one hand, the climate crisis is coming to a head. on the other hand, rushes invasion shows how important it is to phase out fossil fuels and promote the expansion of renewables. you see, but that was before the impact of the new sanctions on their own gas supply from russia sent its members state, scrambling for whatever energy it could get its hands on even if it meant reverting to dirty. cool. in germany's case all while pretending that it wouldn't dent it's green goals. france was also feeling the heat from environmentalists over its nuclear power plants which were neglected and allowed to corrode, with a view of, you know, phasing them out and shutting them down to replace them with greener, renewable energy. but then french president manual and my call took a 1st step towards reverting back to france's bread and butter. and he solved the

country's nuclear image problem earlier this year. by successfully you lobbying the european commission to draft a proposal labeling nuclear energy as green. just in time for my call to promote a new french nuclear renee sauce in his re election campaign. so you see what was dirty is now magically clean and what was the past is now the future all with just the simple stroke of pen. so move over when males in solar panels, the future of sustainable clean energy is natural gas, fossil fuel, and nuclear reactors. in what is clearly a triumph of pragmatism over ideology. as berlin, paris and other european capital struggle to replace russian gas while steering down a winter of potential energy shortages all bets are off. so you know, sorry, environmentalists, the you no longer has the luxury of fussing around with wall paper. while the house

is burning down. ok to the latest from the conflict and on boss where ukrainian troops continued to sheldon. yet sca city on the side skirts this eye. witness footed show smoke from a blaze. after strikes hit the city. it comes as the civilian death toll has been rising steadily in the done yet through public. over the past number of days, the russian lead forces to control with the neighboring loot, ganske republic. on tuesday, ukrainian shelling left at least 3 people dead, including a 10 year old girl. let's recap some of the latest shelling of done yet spy, ukrainian forces, or warning. disturbing images are ahead. ah .

7 me the the, you have the mikey idea. 7 woodberry, when you do the little or did you need to me or me unless an article headlined russia in blitz on done yet counts being published by the daily mirror. it shows smoke rising on the dunbar city skyline. naming it

was the result of a russian bombardment nuts despite done yet being under the control of russian lead forces and its citizens having to live through shelling from key forces for several years. the photo that accompanied the outlet story feature, the building size, banner reading. we are rush and on buff, but that message appeared lost in translation by those writing. the story. russia stop diplomat has said western countries need to be aware that the weapons they are supplying are being used against civilians. loosely cool, cool. well, in short, they ally english. the facts well known our defense minister presented them on a daily basis. but western countries, of course, must be aware of their responsibilities regardless of what and how zalinski and his team wants to interpret what's going on. the west must be aware of its responsibility for the death of civilians, primarily in the dumbass would also in other parts of ukraine. why the he of regime uses west and weapons against civilians in order to terrorize them. this says state

terrorism as it is wilson with what we have contacted the daily mirror comment, i will bring you any response if one arrives. my colleague peter scott, spoke with serbian american journalist on historian boucher mileage, who pointed out the paper as far from the only outlet to have published inaccurate stories during the conflict that i saw the photo of the actual city of don. yes, be under fire and thought, wait a minute, something doesn't add up here. and as it turns out, it was, it was actually somebody had put up a picture of the city of don. yes. and claimed it was russian showing that hit it. and that is just an egregious li, gross, factual error, a crime against journalism if there ever was any, it's not the 1st time something like this happened earlier on during the, during the ukrainian showing of donna city proper bye poach can walk. it's a number of western outlets made the same mistake. so this was russian calling and ukrainian government actually said, you know, these are, are people getting killed in 90? but obviously it was ukrainian government showing them do you explain to the mirror

will publish a correction for the depart mistake if they do, nobody will bother reading it, but i doubt they will because it's one of those. oh, well, it's just, you know, an anti russians lender. if you do that, that's everything is permitted. if you're under the right side of history. so i don't think they're going to issue a correction. i think it's fair to say that russia has been given a bad rap in the press even before the conflicts in ukraine, fairly or unfairly. but do you think the readers should be given more context on the background of this conflict? absolutely, but i wouldn't put it in the hands of the current western corporate and state funded pressed do that because all they're going to do is serve them, i'm sorry, but a served him a pack of lies. i haven't seen demon is ation like this since the 900 ninety's in the western press directed against the serbs in yugoslavia. i literally in their eyes, russia can do nothing can do no. right. and, and the ukrainian government can do no wrong,

and that's just appalling. i would normally urge people to check a variety of sources and go with the sources that have, have a proven track record. unfortunately, western governments have literally band of almost all media that, that don't report in line with their political perspective. in last, the russian defense ministry say's its air force has destroyed to us made high mars rocket launchers in ukraine. the ministry also claims to warehouses with munition, for those weapons were destroyed. the long range systems being tied in as a game changer for the key as forces by the us who deliver the lethal aid. recently, russia demo, de also said a ukrainian radar station for guiding anti or missile units was destroyed, along with a base, housing mercenaries, laughter, russian lead forces secured the last ukranian stronghold in the region of the weekends. there are reportedly advancing west. you can see here the city of severs

where a fortified area under ukrainian control is located. as russian troops move forward, the ukrainian leadership has admitted their troops, sub loss control over a number of times on the way to subversive or senior correspondent rock goes, the reports from the front line after the liberation of lease, it chanced a city of a quarter of a 1000000 people the battle has moved westwards. out there in the distance law, russia helicopters, 2 of them, they were always flying in, bears that even in trios were very close to shed ask, which is where ah, ukrainian nationalists, the ukrainian military is making a stand after retreating from the city of niecy chance about 7 or 8 kilometers over there and the distance is the least chance, all refinery, as you can see by, by over all the plumes of smoke rising from there. that is where most of the action

is, is situated at the moment. as you can see, the helicopters over there, i'll cover mans filming, as we speak, a flying relatively high, so they must feel comfortable that enemy air defenses in this sector have been suppressed. lease is what is called close air support. helicopters floating salvoes of rockets, enemy positions before diving back towards the ground while deploying flares to throw off any heat seeking missiles thought at them. this particular group of helicopters circled back behind us. as you can see, the helicopters just why does added having achieved their objectives are safely out of the battle zone. but again, this, this concludes, play not 4 of them. in fact,

all i really, as we usually see them in the trees for together. well, this is rare, despite the thousands of anti aircraft systems supplied by nate who states the key of ukrainian forces have been unable to close the skies to russian helicopters and jetson cruise missiles. ah, more than that, ukraine has stepped up its use of rocket auth hillary to deploy band and g personnel mines, which it had promised the international community. it had the shrewd years ago. williamson in the liquid. we are not far from the city of severs cry. now and we

have repeatedly observed how the ukrainians are deploying band anti personnel mines, mostly in fields on roads, highways, and on approaches to cities. coastal, already, ukraine understands well the deteriorating conditions of the front lines, casualties of up to a 1000 wounded and healed, but they are catching up. just this week. ukrainian officials announced that women now faced the draft and all to plan to forbid military aged men from leaving their home provinces to prevent them from dodging the draft all showing how far he had this prepared to go to make sure that it has enough bodies to feed, it's war machine more i'd gas the of our tea from the la guns people's republic. the pro key of canadian fight or beaten in battle by twitter. 120000 people were

following him on this social network thinking he was the real deal. only to find out, he was a fake with the guns and equipment he was posing with all replica as his account has since been deleted. you can read more about that and r t dot com. now the u. s. is reportedly pushing the netherlands to bon computer chip making gear from being sold to china. now that equipment is essentially making a large chunk of the world's chips thrive to asia at for more on this escalade to r t correspond kill of nathan in new york. hi there, caleb. a very an international, a problem this we have the u. s. pressuring a dutch tech equipment company to bon all of our sales to china. does washington believes that they can get away with, with such a movie thick. all the pressure is on a dutch company to not trade semi conductors with china. this is being done out of

us strategic interest. the united states argues that the spelling of the semi conductor is somehow a threat. now at this point, a s m l, which is the company that's been under pressure, it's bloomberg. news that has reported that they are under this pressure to stop their stomach. dr. sales. they declined to comment. this is what they said when we reached out. the discussion is not new, no decisions have been made and we do not want to speculate or comment on rumors. now it's important to note that back in march, we heard from the us commerce secretary speaking about that, mike and doctor, and how they would like companies around the world to stop trading with china when it comes to this vital piece of technology. this is clearly the strategy of the united states. that is what was said by the commerce secretary. if we find that they are selling chips to russia, then we can essentially shut them down by denying them use of that software. and

we're absolutely prepared to do that. now the problem here is that this could, in fact cause disruption and the global supply chain back that you can't raise conductors with china that causes a whole lot of issues. there are many chinese companies that are intrinsically tied up with many other companies and many other countries around the world. and if you start drawing a line like this, that is lead to a situation that can affect entire economy. folks, remember the south korean company magnet ship and that they were affected by us did in that god many around the world start questioning the effectiveness of the policy . now, the united kingdom, in particular, had many looking at the outcome of the pressure on magnet ship that and the ultimate decision was made and, and it caused a lot of problems. so people are looking at united states. the u. s. a. growing the blind in the sand, no semi conductors with china, or we won't do business with you, you know,

kind of waging what some might describe is economic warfare. and asking if this is really beneficial, because it seems like the global economy is already suffering with the high will prices, inflation, etc. and the ultimate result of policies like this may not be good. thanks very much for breaking down that story for his ortiz kilobyte, been close to 200 civilians have reportedly been killed in the rest of the region of ethiopia. the countries prime minister accused the oil f sion rebel group of carrying out the mascara in or romeo ah shane group. members fleeing from attacks by government, security forces are inflicting danger on citizens in west. well again, citizens in the are omeo regions. quillen? well, a guerria had come under a massacre. we will pursue this terrorist group to the end and eradicated

ah . well, we cross like no chicken, ian broadcaster las winston touchy to figure out how this winston, welcome to you. the fee and prime minister has accused him the little grip. shane of this horrific massacre, can you give us a sense of who they are on? perhaps? what kind of ideology? briefly they're seeking to pursue. he should be in the federal liberal prime minister, 2001 as an extent of the little i agree, which improves the way. and then when the prime minister came from, it was then administered on the government. but since he came into par in 2018, that was when the gun diminished towards of be well and large

control in the region. it was the time, again, the have been some really do some towels trying to think governance originally the army has consistently been called down. but so we did some of the regions employees we went yet and as the next funding will be joking, army has been able to subdue yeah. forces in some reduce is the sheer deadliness of this attack likely to widen the existing civil war in a few yeah, yeah. the charge has a ripple. it is only 2 against one to speak. now, many questions plus the fees that i've not been able to should it is able to have

access to this. and he's just don't think that kind of even an installation how high cost would have come to, to colder or simply the civilized, the civilian in the area. so is that impact is to be told in the lives of those who yes. well, the, i made him out by the, from the prime minister had so that he would, i would treat, play the ribble, the, i really now i paid on the next, i'll be dublin. and this is basically pretty general, will not be any teeth. i thought according to media reports attacks targeting minorities across the country have increased in recent years, is about being tackled and if not to any significant level, why not?

sometime soon before we meet the kids began the war begun. there was a huge session. civil. i can make related sanctions across originally and they've been before the election. these patients were still in prison. but the onset war between the rebel as the government read to places what the goose and now talk in the high related places. and these, in a way is just falling in some parts of the country, the government going against the rebel in the way. it pushes out a sense of the full war which they end up become a victim. those, the dublin who initially got support from the rich government initially because last year in 2002 when he look at the rich government since then the

beginning of the world have been suspected to be from the richer region. who have come into a joke. yeah. currently. well in the whole crisis. ok. well thank you very much for coming on the program and sharing your expertise with the television presenter and broadcast journalists, winston tucker, speaking to us from gala. ah. ok. let's say stay in africa because this supreme court of the west african nation of guinea, bazaar has overturned the convictions of 2 men charged in the country's biggest narcotics seizure. the court find the evidence presented could not support the guilty verdict under done now. in 2020 the accused drug, lord sworn a columbia national. the other local were sentenced to 16 years in prison, following the largest ever drug seizure in the country of almost 2 tons of cocaine . hidden in sucks of flour. the country had been labeled africa's 1st norco state by the u. n. and 2013, due to its heavy involvement in drug trafficking,

civil groups and getting bizarre, slammed the supreme court decision, seeing and undermines the credibility of legal institutions in the country. the court was hostage to organized crime. the ruling jeopardizes efforts to combat transnational organized crime and discredits the country's image and credibility. while colombian drug dealers use guinea pa, so as a transit point for shipping cocaine from south america to europe, using ships and planes to smuggle the drugs into the country, they then repack cocaine into smaller bundles and transported through the sahara to morocco. after that, than our kotik finds its way to spain with migrants transporting the drug in their stomachs. well, african for a specialist. gustavo do, carvajal, says guinea saw officials face serious challenges and trying to stop the country from becoming an even bigger drug trans appoint. the recent development team you never saw show much got a problem than just the issue of drug trafficking,

but rather systemic problem in the country of having a strong judiciary and having strong rule of law in government systems that enable the states to actually deal with some some of those issues, certainly the reasons overturn off of 2019 decision show some of these challenges, i think presidency circle has been made and hasn't made some of the promise during teach electrical pain around trafficking, but it's facing many challenges around the she have an effect of security sector reform, the can effectively deal with the culture and all of the many islands that exist outside of the country and making sure that the country stops becoming or ment remaining as a transit point for drugs that are coming from latin america to you, getting reliable data in terms of what it's actually happening on the ground becomes very difficult to just came from from, from a period. it can be so and when you're asked those questions,

when you're trying to get the data is really hard, which makes it even more difficult considering the fact that the united nations office for drugs and crime which principal should be working on some of those matters is where we're gonna have a base from each office. so we still have a process of ensuring the data is available that allow us not only to get a better sense of what it's happening, but also using the data to into it's a public policy, an international responses towards the problem tracks and crime and get him so any more laundry, surging fuel prices around the world have sparked on rest in 5 africa with a nationwide protest. outland. prices up the pumps are now 40 percent up compared to last year, with the fuel prices and part coming about because of sanctions against russia. many of the person in the country are struggling to make ends meet. so african authorities have utilized any measures to ease the burden plans for

a nation wide protest. first took root on twitter and grew significantly after left wing party, the economic freedom fighters launched. it was backing the former presidential hopeful in south africa out of moved guard by the 3rd believes the ukrainian crisis has had a considerable impact on humanitarian conditions in the region. when you make the course of energy to be higher, automatically you made the course of living to be high. it's a funeral to most especially my warranty nigeria bringing down many of those into poets on seriously affecting the bottom line under possibility, or succeeded. because i'm talking to, you know, about 40 to 50 percent or denied general budget is the detector, paid for dispose of city of dollars because you have to. so this is really not in

africa. but let me in my going to be not, you know, well, so many people are we to put what d into confusion. maybe get some higher inflation. no different inflation was almost 7 percent. so when you look at all those dynamics, you find out that it is actually very, very difficult for especially with an ongoing crisis that was happening between western europe and russia, where discipline is seriously disrupted a new or didn't energy, energy destruction. dutch farmers angry government plans to slush and missions use tractors on trucks on monday to buck roads and access to supermarket distribution centers they arrest among farmers was triggered by a government proposal that is expected to directly affect their operations. the requirements are to slash emissions of pollutants like nitrogen oxide. ammonia

a little bit prematurely. but something on the police have been accused of a heavy 100 response to one of the protest after the recording camera firing warning shots and reportedly shooting directly at a tractor and police. and no one was injured in knob in country, which an officer is seen drawing to hung guns. police officials say that the truck was being driven directly out officers. the curtain has been brought down on plums to show a new documentary of the canadian cultural festival. that's after the filmmaker behind it sparked outrage among the country's hindu community. by showcasing a poster from the phone depicting a goddess smoking a cigarette. ortiz ruined june. sharman picks up the story. creative exploration of diversity rates and monte cause resume. that's what all the new customer project.
