a, with a lot of more potent visits to run for a summit with his iranian and turkish counterparts as the trio seeks to work out a solution for peace and ukraine and syria. you can see on your screen right now live pictures from to run of the president, russian president vladimir putin preparing to exit and meeting with those. diplomats there with the european union is reportedly set to unfreeze some seized russian assets, while ukraine cries foul over. what is called a betrayal as western sanctions thought in the face of a global food crisis,

plus a key of forces continue their relentless shelling of the done. yet the people's republic are key visits. the mother of a 10 year old girl who was killed by a ukrainian strike right in front of her home with they're watching our to international. i'm donald quarter. welcome to the program. and what you're looking at right now is why are life pictures from russian president vladimir putin's visit to iran, to, to run the capital of the country. this is at the airport where vladimir putin has just arrived. he set to have discussions with his counterpart from iran, as well as a, from a turkey he's going to be talking about potential solutions for peace in the car, a conflict and ukraine as well as in syria. and these

are recent pictures. they're literally just coming in now. so this is exactly what is going on right now in iran. now vladimir putin is right there. as you can see right now exiting the plain going to his vehicle. and he set to meet with officials from iran and turkey, as i said before, to discuss potential solutions for the conflicts in ukraine, as well as the conflict with an in syria. and he's going to be discussing that with diplomats in those countries. as you can see, this is his vehicle and also in terms of this turkey's president is into ran as well to meet with the russian and iranian leaders for bilateral and try lateral talks. the officials are expected to discuss issues

including the conflict in ukraine, as well as grain exports from the country plus other topics like the situation and syria. ahead of the president ahead of russian president vladimir boons visit russia's gas. prom signed a memorandum on a $40000000000.00 deal with rand state oil company ortiz ilia. katrinka was in tehran with more on what's expected to come out of the summit. president proven, doesn't leave russia that often these days. so every foreign trip is always a magnet for attention. the choice of destination speaks volumes about moscow's priorities. so there you have it shortly after joe biden, toward the middle east. mr. prudent is visiting terror on together with, and that's also very important. turkey's leader, ty bardon here at the russian embassy and to iran. we heard from the ambassador about the diplomatic game of chess that is now, and it's crucial stage. we're seniority, move to europe, and worked visible quite recently. tehrani has literally turned into a mecca for numerous foreign delegations that are coming to iran. first. they're

coming not only from asian countries, but also from the ca. yes. from a number of european countries that are looking for ways to strengthen bilateral trade washed away. but it's much more difficult for europeans to do this because they're forced to keep an eye on the americans. going back to the trilateral format, despite the immense contrast and interests when it comes to the syrian conflict. it was thanks to the efforts of leaders of the 3 nations, russia, turkey, and iran, 4 years ago that syria. so like at the end of the tunnel ahead of another summit in 10, ron, the gremlins spokesperson cold, the trilateral agreements, the only international format that is keeping serious stable. here's what else we heard from mr. pess. gov and his latest interview. when i say to these youth who chased to the main purpose of the visit to iran, east to participate in the summit of the astronaut troika,

the guarantor countries of the syrian settlement process on russia, iran and turkey, which was this is a very important format that has shown its viability and is the only international format that is currently contributing to resolving the searing conflict. russia and the ran are now the most sanctioned countries in the world. but the latest efforts by the western european countries to isolate russia only led to closer ties between russia in the islamic republic, russian, and in radian, companies apparently have nothing to lose. now. trade in national currencies is picking up pace, ties are being expanded in so many areas from space, exploration to joined car manufacturing. the 2 countries are now expecting to sign a major strategic partnership agreement. yeah, almost 4 percent of the 1st of all, we need to further increase tre, turn over, we should, with our exports to iran, have increased by more than 50 percent in total trade turn over by more than 30

percentage of persons. i hope that by the end of this year, we will break the record that we sent last year by more than $4000000000.00. so by the end of the year, we will have many more business missions of representatives of russian businesses will come to iran and vice versa to russia the more to with. and i think we will successfully resolve issues of banking cooperation, which is very important for switching to national currencies. earlier this month, turkey cemented its role as a k mediator, and the ukranian conflict talks in est ambled paved the way for a potential compromise on the issue of grain experts from blocked ukrainian ports. latimer bolton's upcoming ted i said with ty, beardon, followed by an anticipated press conference, could shed light on a possible agreement. this could spell. the 1st success in setting up direct talks between moscow and kiev in months were expecting to hear more about that during vladimir putin trip to tet wrong. later this hour we could take

a closer look at the ease attempts to crack down on descent among the blocks members, germany's cat chancellor has proposed scrapping the veto right of some e u countries saying the union needs to be on the same page when it comes to foreign policy that says brussels 60 united european front and it's push for new sanctions against russia. more details on that a just a few min. ah. meanwhile, the e u is reportedly planning to partially unfreeze seized assets of some leading russian banks to ease global food trade transactions. brussels is said to be ready to pass the necessary paperwork on wednesday. however, the move does not mean that any sanctions are officially being lifted. this comes amid an ongoing western denial that restrictions against russia over ukraine have led to a global food crisis. the thaws expected to be met with anger in kia, where officials are now calling some of their western allies traders. as archie's fiorella isabel explain,

it seemed the less success ukraine has on the battlefield. the latter. it shouts at its western allies. those ukraine ones hailed as partners in the fight against so called russian terror are now increasingly being labeled as traitors. after all, it's much easier to pin the blame on someone else rather than take a look at yourself or change tactics. the latest to fall from kids, very high pedestal is just an trudeau. that's after the canadian prime minister refuse to allow europeans to freeze this coming winter due to the rise of energy costs across the e. u simply dang in the postal. this is not just about the turbine. this is about complying with sanctions. if there is one violation, now it's only a matter of time before others will follow. you know, russia is duly some purpose. blackmailing others with gas and provoke and sanction breaches. ukrainians will never accept count as decision regarding the norse trim turbine, which was decided to be handed over to germany in violation of the sanctions regime . it's not just canada back pedaling. vladimir zalinski is not pleased that some

western banks have chosen to continue doing business with russian companies. in fact, the ukranian president even think some of them should be tried at the hag. never mind that j. p. morgan, one of the banks mentioned last $524000000.00, largely because of the fallout from the russia ukraine conflict. the bank is one of the biggest players in global commodities and it's economic fluctuations greatly impact the global market. in my view, western banks are committing war crimes because they are helping the putin regime in this specific way, and they are supporting the regime. that's not all ukraine's foreign minister slammed what he called, a hypocritical nato for doing literally nothing to counter russia. the war is always a test that rips masks off, and we all saw real faces. what we saw some revolutionary groundbreaking decisions taken by the european union, which even they themselves did not expect to make. and we see nato as an alliance as an institution sidelined and doing literally nothing. i'm sorry to say literally

nothing. a reminder that since the conflict began on february 24th of this year, ukraine has received billions of dollars worth of weapons and military equipment from at least $28.00 countries, including $25.00 nato members. and unfortunately for ukraine trainers are seemingly everywhere these days with the so called betrayal coming from inside the country as well. the lensky recently fired to top officials, one being long term from even because of the head of the country's top security service. and the other being arena benedict to love. the prosecutor general beaufort blamed for ramp and treason within their organizations with the lensky saying that a large number of their staffers were working with russia. stone. the solution that is still not as of today 651 criminal proceedings have been registered regarding treason and co operation activities of employees. of the prosecutors office, pretrial, investigation bodies, and other law enforcement agencies. in particular, more than 60 employees of the prosecutors office and the s b u remained in the

occupied territory and our war can against our state board. so while the you britain and the u. s. are giving billions of a to ukraine and creating a south main economic crisis in their countries. kiev is still calling many of them traders. what will be enough for ukraine? it seems the country is not only losing ground on the battlefield against russia, but living faith in the support from its allies who are coming to realize that heavy consequences of their own sanctions. russia's defense ministry says its forces have destroyed a field base, manned by the notorious, neo nazi right sector battalion and southern ukraine with at least 200 militants said to have been killed there by russian missiles. according to the latest reports, up to 60 soldiers have been killed by russia, by russian strikes on ukrainian military positions inside the people's republic. plus several storage facilities with ammunition for weapons supplied by the u. s. in europe were also destroyed, according to moscow. meanwhile,

in the russian controls her song region of southern ukraine, a key bridge has been bombed with local official flaming, the forces per song authorities, se ukrainian troops used american supplied artillery rocket launchers to target the site. no casualties have been reported in that attack. as key of military continues to shall, residential areas in the dunbar. people's republics, the number of civilian casualties is mounting with many children among them. ortiz roman costs, or if visited a mother who lost her daughter during their ukrainian strike on central financed. the number of civilian casualties continues to mount here in the nest, especially. so since ukraine started receiving heavy caliber weaponry and ammunition from nato, now this place in the center of don ask is just one of the latest strikes according to local officials, a 155 millimeter cannon has struck this place as the result

a 10 year old girl was ripped apart and i spoke to her mom who is completely devastated. ah, i do have a good one. this is ebony when you do a the wallet he will shoot us down here. killer city, new britain is the proof. the puzzle border. brewster would talk with her or him. could you please send it on with?

i have all my agent children, but the most her urine, you could have a good that on the line to talk to protest. the son with the rug with went to cruise up for you to you. soon to deal with veronica was that a neighbor's house? just a few doors sat down and just before the strikes began, she ran back home. according to her mom in order to brush her hair and get back to

playing with her little friends. when the shell struck her body ended up right here. you can still see the marks from the blood on the asphalt. the neighbors are all visiting the place of her death right now, bringing flowers, plush toys, and of course none of this can bring the little girl back as her mom. helena is completely devastated. romano calls for of archie the nest people's republic. ah, germany's chancellor has suggested ending the use vito policy for individual countries. that's after hungry held up the implementation of the e. u 6th. sanctions package against russia due to energy concerns off sholtes has. busy called the move selfish and says the veto right,

should be scrapped if the block is to remain a global power. we simply can no longer afford national vetoes, for example, in foreign policy. if we want to continue to be heard in a world of competing great powers. so there's a troubling you trend, bouncing around the european union echo chamber last month. you commission president ursula voluntarily and said that she has no time for debate when it comes to foreign policy of the blocks member states. on the foreign affairs, i'm deeply convinced that it is not sustainable that the european union is not able to take a position because of one blocking and critical files and the speed at which things happen. the world wants to hear the european voice. the speed is too high to constantly or too often not be heard and seen because of the blocking of one here that plebeians of europe. president ursula has no time for your descent, particularly if it risks contradicting the agenda of the unelected bureaucrats leading the you. and neither now does german chancellor, olaf schultz, apparently,

actually, if germany had been bothered to veto the ease decision to sanction its own russian gas supply at the outset of the conflict in ukraine than maybe it's that is the most russian gas dependent country in the u. and the rest of the block wouldn't currently be facing an energy emergency with shortages, rationing and even proposed new rules for air conditioning. and mid a record setting, continental heat wave, in order to better withstand the drastic fall in russian gas supplies, which could be cut off altogether. the commission is expected to urge governments across the 27 nation block to set limits on the amount of energy used by public buildings, offices, commercial properties, and outdoor terraces for optimal energy use. it will recommend the rules require that public buildings be heated to no more than 19 degrees celsius and cooled by air conditioning units said no lower than 25 degrees celsius. if shows 40 wanted

the you to compete with great world powers economically, then he would have done everything in his power to discourage you. leaders from burning the blocks economic bridges with russia at risk of greater dependence on the u. s. and its allies shows says that he wanted the you to compete with them, but instead, the you is a step closer to becoming another, one of washington's economic vassals. for british from mr. margaret thatcher, who viewed the e, was a threat to national sovereignty, warned, in 1992, amid the use creation that it risk becoming an economic straightjacket for its members states. and 30 years later, that vision is closer than ever to reality. the eas own stated aims are primarily economic. there's mention of an internal mark, head, economic territorial cohesion, and the single currency of course. but nowhere does it say or even suggest that

european countries have to give up their sovereign right to maintain and develop foreign relations with other countries. if schultz wanted to strengthen the use position among global heavyweights that he's doing and encouraging exactly the opposite of what he should be, isn't diversity supposed to be strength after all? clearly that applies to diversity of use as well because of germany had spoken up and defended its own sovereign interest, submit you sanctions folly than perhaps the citizens of the entire you would be facing much better prospects for their economic future. ah, meanwhile, in france, more than a 100 refugees and social workers have protested outside a reception center for ukrainians in paris, demanding equal rights for migrants from other countries while accusing the french authorities of favoring ukrainian asylum seekers. who shall yet, there is a whole group of migrants and who come here from various countries to denounce the existing differences in treatment. there are only 30 ukrainians inside. the rest of

the facility is empty. the question is, why, and we know the answer. it's the racism of the state which leads to other people having to go stay on the streets, but i'm opening come here and every euro, but people did good give a close to him and not the offered. he got a not dog gone as a not to another thing, old multitude on not another one. we'll have also like him problem. he often like them. we demand the same rights as ukrainians, neither more nor less housing and paperwork. some people come here from many countries of several nationalities, from sudan to eritrea, to afghan as dan. and we all form a collective of people who fight for equality and against racism. and that means obtaining housing and documents for everyone, no matter the color of their skin or their nationality. the protesters say refugees fleeing from africa are risking their lives by traveling across the mediterranean sea and often fall prey to human traffickers only to end up facing discrimination

and a denial of basic rights in europe. that's while ukrainian refugees apparently enjoy preferential asylum programs and humane treatment. earlier this month, african refugees already cried foul over what they called double standards by french authorities in dealing with migrants from different regions. political analysts to nickel markovich, says france has no real strategy for dealing with refugees outside of ukraine. just shows the negligent and incompetent of the french authorities to tackle immigration . it's also showing how politicized the whole ukrainian immigration is going on. around france. france has open centers for ukrainians, which are apparently empty, where they're not enough ukrainians. they're what they're talking about. there's something on mainstream media saying that france is open doors that it's helping ukraine and we're finding out that these 2 centers are half occupied. i think what it shows essentially is that france has no strategy,

no problem whatsoever to read. the immigrants coming from abroad. i think ukrainians is just a small tv of them out of the great numbers of immigrants coming over to france each year. but it shows that immigrants coming into france have no housing la mode, some of the people in coming to the centers don't speak french, there's no courses for them. there's no jobs waiting for them. and it shows that you governments in france, where did they do that? or the right have no program, have an open door policy, but have nothing. western sanctions against russia are bringing suffering to 3rd world countries like sri lanka, that's according to the impoverished south asian nations interim president. speaking at an international forum for preventing hunger and famine. let us look at the sanctions that are being impose and not pass. and if this dance and he did you sanction being russia athletes means the social norms being

rest. yeah. believe me, but the good meaning that it's not that bad boy needs longest gripped by its worst ever economic crisis. crowds of people are trying to flee the country, hoping that the grass is greener on the other side or t corresponded road journey sharma spoke with some of them. what is the bank club holland going to its worse economic crisis due to its people? since the beginning of the pool, thousands have lost their jobs, desperate and hopeless with the system. she lumpkins now want to leave their once beloved country, but to do that, they need passports. and for that they require printing material, which is now in shop supply. just like everything else, with the demand so high, the week seems endless. you feel long, you took dolphin cars. i'll type at old stations btr at the department of immigration in columbus. these people have queued up,

trying to leave this country to wherever they can to find whatever job they can either go on day. going to look at maya, i leave my asthma and my gates everything i live in going there was yesterday game a then today to you i one money i need money because i have 2 children. i cannot go to dare. gandhi, but i won't go because my children, all these she was outside gas stations that charl stations all the department of immigrations are one big cry for help. it remains to be seen in the weeks to come, whether the new government will listen region sharma in columbus reporting for r t in the u. s. state of new jersey, a transgender inmate who identifies as a woman has been removed from a female prison and sent to another detention facility after the convict,

reportedly impregnated to female inmates. the suspect has accused prison authorities of unfair treatment. new jersey department of corrections have violated my right to be safe and free from sexual harassment by putting me in one of the most violent g correctional facilities. while living hair at the garden state correctional facility, i have found myself under attack by young inmates who are immature and just plain ignorant towards a person like me. the new jersey department of corrections says it cannot comment on any active investigations, but has quote 0 tolerance for abuse. demi minor is serving a 30 year sentence for manslaughter, and was at 1st placed in a female. only prison was later relocated after the impregnation claims emerged. since last year, new jersey has allowed prisoners to be housed according to whatever gender they identify as. but the department has said it's currently reviewing those rules in order to slightly change them. that policy was part of a settlement from

a civil rights suit, brought by a transgender woman forced to live in men's prison facilities for 18 months. there are an estimated $5000.00 transgender individuals currently in us prisons. the founder and editor of prison legal news, paul wright says, american prisons are a danger for every detainee and not only minorities in a lot of american prisons, every once a very high risk of physical and sexual assault, not just tramped gender. so the lack of safety in the high levels of violence, i think are almost, you know, across the board, for example, you know, as just preparing a story about the presence of spin, alabama. and for january of this year, over $33.00 prisoners of died in alabama. prisons, most of them have been murdered by other prisoners. so, and as far as i know, not the transgender. so i think a lot of respects, it's kind of just illustrates the extreme danger and violence in many americans present jails. that literally exposes every one to very high risk, well,

injury or death. and just so happens, the transgender prisoners tend to be more likely to be seriously injured in america prisons as a result of their, as a result of their gender. as your top no stories for this, our stay tuned for more in just about 30 minutes. ah ah ah .

what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy when foundation let it be an arms race is often very dramatic. development only personally, i'm going to disease. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical. i'm time to sit down and talk with with

me. hello, and welcome to wealth apart. more than a century ago, marked wayne remark that that god created war. so that americans would learn geography. my guest today has supported all recent american lab wars and a times of regime change, but he's absolutely appalled by russia's actions in the ukraine. why is that? to discuss that? i'm now joined by a former us national security advisor and former us ambassador to the united nations john bolton, ambassador bolton, it's such a rare treat for a russian journalist to speak to you. thank you very much for this occasion. well, thank you for having me. glad to do it. now you have the reputation of being pretty hawkish, thinker, especially when it comes to russia. when you look at the vans in and around ukraine, whom do you blame 1st? is it president putin o president biden?

well, i think this is unquestionably an active unprovoked aggression by russia, and there's no legitimate explanation for so i think the responsibility does live with president colton and his government, i think unfortunately that the west failed adequately to deter potent from, from launching the invasion and, and that's a great tragedy but, but in this instance, it's pretty clear where the responsibility laws now president put it in his own words, is motivated by defending rushes that strategic interest. so he will definitely disagree with your definition of an unprovoked aggression. but let me, i establish that phrase, do you believe that russia has any security prerogative when it comes to its own neighborhood? and especially when it comes to the american and made a presence in its neighborhood? well, it certainly has.
