4:06 pm
his jewishness the kremlin falsely claims the worst nazis were actually jews, and seeks to down play the role of anti semitism in nazi ideology. well, the accusations by washington and 8 other western states fail to mention ukrainian new nazi battalion such as all and i dar, a recent speech by president zalinski to the greek parliaments given while beside to his av radhika. fighters received huge backlash from greeks. latimer zalinski also compared the conflict in ukraine with the holocaust while addressing these really parliament. though even before the conflict began both the u. n. on western media condemned ukrainian neo nazis for violating human rights. earlier we got the take of some investigative journalists working in dumbass, 60 new and as is better in ukraine, and so pretend that they do not exist and then they are not the threat for, for me is just completely amazing. and they are really dangerous. the of the more,
4:07 pm
ideologically phonetic and ukraine, the, these battalions were the 1st to shoot against civilians, ended on boss in 2014, when the war begun. zelinski had, during years ago. and since now people in his government are war openly, neo nazis. i mean, dad, me through your oce, we knew nazi the founder of one of these neo nazis battalions. ease now an advisor to the head of stuff of the, of the ukranian army. yeah. is it in caesar of you origin which doesn't change the fact that e as in these government, people who are opening new nazis and for him it's not a problem, especially in 2014. when this 1st started on the sack, there was driving down the street and literally behind the lines for over
4:08 pm
a year. now seas and nazis, i'm not even sure if you can call some of them deal because of their actual background from the early spring in 2014 late winter, 2014. they were murdering people across them. and this is never stuff to murder the rate watcher. it's been a staple, as long as they've been around in wherever they are. the red cross is sounding the alarm over the global food crisis saying parts of africa and the middle east are being hit, especially hard. the organizations director general say's the conflict in ukraine is further deepening the critical situation. sadly, we can expect to see more images under fed children in the coming weeks. as children are disproportionately affected by the food crisis in somalia, for example,
4:09 pm
the number of children under the age of 5 suffering from severe acute malnutrition, with medical complications increased by almost 50 percent compared to the same period last year. well, according to a recent red cross reports, a quarter of africa is population does not have enough to eat. niger and martinez produced 40 percent less food done. the 5 year average is countries in this a held region are in the midst of a severe dr. enough ghana stuff. the price for wheat flour is up 47 percent compared with a year ago while cooking are not far behind, it's up 37 percent. the world food program estimates an additional $47000000.00 people will be lacking food this year compared to last year. the report comes prior to a 4 way meeting on weddings that coming between turkey, russia, ukraine, the u. n. on the issue of bring supplies, the director general of the international committee of the red cross spoke to r t roberts. mardina believes the ukrainian crisis has diverted the attention of politicians away from suffering elsewhere in the world. the role of i c r c
4:10 pm
is to ensure that human suffering that does not happen despite armed culture. but what you have seen for humanitarian funding is really striking. we have seen this outpouring of generosity in ukraine and a decline of humanitarian support elsewhere. i think most of our donors are acutely aware of the challenges globally in africa, in the middle east region in face like afghanistan, and are trying hard to safeguard some of the funding for these regions. fact of the matter is that the global economy in is in a such situation that it's, it's, it's hard so absolutely much more needs to be done. and 1st to be quite frank, what the i, c, r to expect is more political leadership to and conflict in the 1st place. because
4:11 pm
as long as conflicts are happening and are driving humanitarian needs up, we are only addressing the symptoms of the problem and the right way to do it is to have a political leadership to and conflict in the 1st place. the un security count. this is a job you add security council and of course are in the meantime the i, c, r c and other you maintain organizations are ready to step up or the support. and this is what you're doing. ah ok, pretty big movements on the financial markets. the euro move to parity with the dollar for the 1st time in 20 years. on tuesday it comes as some politicians in europe label the sanctions imposed on rush as a mistake. stating at the continent has been hit harder than moscow, but the penalties are te, contributor rachel marston, offers her thoughts on lation. the leader, frances largest opposition party and parliament mowing. the pen of the national
4:12 pm
rally party is sounding the alarm about the european union's anti russian sanctions . being more damaging to france than to russia and calling to sanctions the root cause of inflation. nissan shaw, i think a little ease, sanctions against russia turned out to be completely ineffective. and this, in fact, sanctions have enriched russia in particular. so the french have been sanctioned more than the russians. so i think it's a big mistake that self serve austria is getting the same bad vibes of as we have used to use the teachers i removed. so if we continue like this, so there are only 2 decisions for you afterwards. alcohol or drugs, oxygen farm, and i would say alcohol is basically okay, these are, but why don't we take these officials word for it if anyone needs quantifiable proof that the u has weekend, it's on economy through sanctions. the euro is now almost exactly at parity with the u. s. dollar for the 1st time in 20 years. the use currency started plummeting against the greenback around the time. it went nuts and started handing out anti
4:13 pm
russian sanctions like halloween candy. and it's now down 12 percent since the beginning of this year. that's great news for americans maybe who want to come hang out here in europe this summer, but it's also good for rich americans or corporations interested in buying up european interests. it's some kind of fire sale prices. meanwhile, the russian rouble reached its highest value in 7 years last month. and the big loser and all this wells, europe, to the competitive benefit of the u. s. on the global playing field. moscow has pivoted to the global self. but where is europe going to pivot now, except right into uncle sam's arms. the you had every opportunity to adopt a policy towards the ukraine conflict that didn't involve harming primarily its own interests. instead, it's forging ahead and re quarterly preparing a 7th round of anti russian sanctions pushed by nordic and baltic country. you sanctions are working so well well against you countries that french economy
4:14 pm
minister believe lynette is talking about cutting the power supply to some french companies, or what he calls load, shedding plans that slow down or stop the company's energy consumption. let's prepare for a total cutoff of russian gas today. that is the most likely option. we have to anticipate and to put ourselves in order of battle as of now, the financial times in neighboring britain has already evoked the u. k. national grid emergency plans of cutting yas to the you in the event of a u. k shortage. which would make matters even worse for you, you citizens and industry. and when you know it, the u. k is already preparing for that worst case energy scenario with talk of energy bills, they could climb to $3300.00 british pounds per year. and already, the purchasing power of u. k. citizens has taken a big hit,
4:15 pm
the energy market consultancy cornwall insight attributes. the diary forecast to an energy market that has become increasingly more volatile amid uncertainty over the gas that russia sends to europe. sales volumes are falling to a rate not seen since the depths of the pandemic as inflation continues to bite, and households cut back spending discretionary purchases were hit hard, especially white goods and homeware, while consumers also traded down to cheaper brands in food and on food alike. yeah, in other words, uncertainty caused by sanctions that the you imposed on itself and its very on citizens kill us crack on with another over a headline. stories today. sure like is parliament will elect a new president. next week. it follows protesters storming, as you'll have seen, i'm sure leaders residences happening and made a severe financial crisis in the south asian nation. indeed,
4:16 pm
demonstrators continue to occupy the residences, accusing the government of being responsible for acute shortage is of food, fuel and medicine from the protest. her say they will remain at the property until the leaders reside. here is a closer look at events surrounding the latest chaos in the cook. i'm here at the private residence of the prime minister on a, become a sega, along with this particular residence and residence, which is almost next door which belong to the younger brother of private, historic recovery cigna. they were both set on fire and allegedly looted by the people, a group of people who came into the property on the 9th of july that his last saturday right after the massive rally the man to release that was conducted. creating a people force, sir to get rid of the government at the same time the president to go to abilene
4:17 pm
deposit. and the next in line was to ask the prime minister also to step down from his portfolio as the prime minister, because they were alleging at the prime minister came into prover. not purely through the part of the people, but as a safe guardian to the cotton government, which is led by that i de boxes. so i'm walking into the private residence and the entire the residence, the entire property, easy ashes at the moment. it all the yesterday by the prime minister on recommending that he was planning to donate most of his library which had more than 2500 valuable books to some of the libraries at the same time but to some of the schools are nearby. and at same time, some of the donations over targeted and some of the donation to work. he was planning to give it to his own alma mater for college columbia, which is almost
4:18 pm
a couple of blocks of it. so this is where most of the damage had taken place at the same time, the teacher navia and the area that i'm walking at the moment, which leads to his ordinary personal library are all in ashes. but through some of the person of friends and some of the members of the security personnel, some of the books that were there in the library had been rescued by them. but most of them have been burned down. and even at the moment they looks, it is not working, the lobbying system have been damage and nothing can be basically taken. taking out of this entire property, the entire house, entire residence, the private residence of the prime minister. and rick of a c, r e ashes at the moment. this is my private precedence. and this is our family home. this house is about
4:19 pm
10400 years old. actually, this house was built in philly. now we do our dinner and, and we do our dinner from my mother's side and i have 4 generations now as a 5th generation has lived here. so i was really sad to see this house in the state. or when i arrived on the, on the morning had to vote or 7 o'clock or into houses, vandalized and looted and, and no damage was done. and it's a great loss. only thing is because we had a lot of historical documents and some,
4:20 pm
and also historical artifacts. and paintings, which milan belonged to the colonial eda. as you see there was mashed up and most of the some of the story cuz i'm talking with artifacts are gone. or it's not the money i'm concerned about. it's actually a sentimental values and the historical middle belongings, which would have gone into another generation. i am sad about this and i'm sad about people who broke this kind of violence. this is not, it's not what you should do if you need a change. so when you walk through, you can see how the level of the damage that had been created there as a result of the action. and some of the,
4:21 pm
a group of people who were jump in to the property from the parapet valve. and the problem is actually this had happened during a time when it was manned, and it was safe, guarded by some of the members of this yolanda our force and they were here and this all were created. this all were done during such a time. so still, investigations are being carried out who carried out these and who were the men that bodies responsible for the devastation that had been already created. here the u. s. president has hosted his mexican counterpart in the white house. the leaders exchanged pleasantries despite a host of underlying tensions between the countries and underline the necessity for further cooperation in such critical fields as migration. mexico also agreed to
4:22 pm
continue helping its northern neighbour with energy supplies amid the u. s. fuel crisis. as to why we are waiting for the prices to go down. and we have decided that it was necessary for us to allow americans who live close to the border to go and get their gasoline on the mexican side at lower prices. however, there are still a plethora of issues that remain unresolved between the nations. just to give an example, only a month ago, the mexican president snub the summit of the americas forum organized by washington. he also recently said the western policy of sending weapons to ukraine has failed and suggested the conflict code of uniform the challenges facing our hemisphere in how easy it is to say, here, i'll send you this much money for weapons. i provide the weapons and you provide the dead, it is immoral, couldn't the war in ukraine have been avoided? of course it could. the policy failed and look at the damage. it causes the loss of
4:23 pm
human lives. the issue of ukraine is very prescient in the mind. of the united states and mexico, i am low called the involvement and the sanctioning of the, of the west a cross error. so it's, it's not just a matter of, of him disagreeing. it's a matter of and looking at it as an error. this is also push and low closer to his latin american ho hort's as we have been seeing. what then about the american content itself. recently, ablow decided to not attend the biden democracy summit of the americas held in los angeles. and he decided this because of the exclusion of venezuela, nicaragua, and cuba. because the united states does not consider them democracies, but rather an autocratic government. this is why he decided not to attend in up with their champion summit of the americas, if not all countries of the american continent are taking part as
4:24 pm
a very hypocritical of the united states. because meanwhile, they're trying to talk to ben slow to get some oil because of the situation going on with the sanctions against russia. they refused to recognize nicholas, my daughter as a legitimate president. lopez over outdoor, is taking us fans and pretty much showing us that he is standing with latin america and he's trying to get closer to those relationships and build upon them as well. no. one of the big issues, the stumbling blocks between the countries is always immigration. when such meetings happen, how is that issue? developing mexico has been telling the united states to provide temporary visas. and the reason that there's so much, so many of them stay here illegally is because once they go into the united states, they can't leave mexico to for mexico, or they'll be unable to return and make that money. so this has been something that has been talked about since a bush administration in terms of that. and of course, recently we've seen the just the unfortunate advance in san antonio, texas with the death of migrants that were found in this truck in this trailer. and
4:25 pm
the vast majority of them were from mexico. so there's going to be that, that, that focus on curbing this, the u. s. is increasing mexico, violating human rights. why? so the united states is, is accusing mexico of, of being at fault for the death of journalists of not spending enough to the drug problem. but imo, has particularly particularly denied. that's pretty much saying that he does not believe he is at fault and pointing out the hypocrisy of the fact that the united states is the one persecuting a journalist trying to extradite julian assange and giving him a whole life sentence. sheila, you know, if he's brought to the us and given the maximum sentence of life in prison, a campaign should be launched to dismantle the statue of liberty in new york that was gifted by the french because it will no longer be a symbol of freedom. essentially, trying to its or international jurisdiction over the free press. ah,
4:26 pm
russia is set to buy a home grid, so of unmanned aerial vehicles, including come bought drones from a rum that's according to washington. or in the information indicates that the iranian government is preparing to provide russia with up to several 100 u. a. b 's including weapons capable you avi's on an expedite expedited timeline or in information further indicates that iran is preparing to train russian forces to use the bees with initial training session floyd to begin as soon as early july when it comes out of the kremlin and i love him your plans to visit around next week, where he'll hold meetings with his renier and turkish counterparts to ron. how's a large range of both surveillance on comeback you avi's? meanwhile, the head of the iranian central bike recently visited moscow on a non splunk of using only national currencies and by laughter or trade. he also stated that the 2 countries can increase trade by 50 percent or professor of
4:27 pm
political communication at the university of iran food, as he sees iran has every right to sell its weapons to russia. russia, military corporations have been going on for many years and has been buying things from russia and it is able and willing to sell, tends to russia as well and sell their own. it's not under any type of national law as opposed to any type of wars so used to defend countries defended on and defend even fence on russia. traditions are improving in many areas. this, besides the military cooperation, terms of economy and trade, tens of interest president visited russia
4:28 pm
a couple of months ago, few months ago. and obviously president put in is going to come to cancel on the reserve bank of india. and he has launched an initiative for international trade deals to be made in indian rupees, in order to promote the growth of global trade with emphasis on exports from india and to support the increasing interest of the global trading community in indian rupees. it has been decided to put in place in additional arrangement for invoicing payment and settlement of exports and imports, and indian rubies. the move is aimed at using tre, particularly with countries restricted from standard cross border payment platforms, like heavily function russia. we deli also hopes to make the indian currency stronger around the world. the move comes and rising inflation in india, rocketing oil prices on the dollar, strengthening against the roof. be, well economist markets on the list. question dahl believes indian rip it could
4:29 pm
become one of the world's major currencies. i think it's so great. it's a very significant new, it's a practical move. seeing the ratings are moving globally. this is something which was required to be done. now this would increase what it will be a hot date with the ship and of course she'll and goal. what comes to my mind is why should you with dollar monopoly of being the global currency india. 2 then died when we had a big economy. now we are the 6 largest to bonham this year and the voted expected to go by on to one show and why did percent india this is going to be expected to go 7 percent and a half percent. so we are becoming one of the new pulse. so why shouldn't you're getting an indian? so i think of going ahead, there will be more going to be also,
4:30 pm
which can be dating in indian. how if you'd like to delve the printed out and did any of those stories, this r r t dot com as you've covered, fresh content, a lively discussion, always to be fine there to goodbye for ah, to what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race on very dramatic development only and get into this. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical of time to sit down and talk with.
