just after 6 pm here in the russian capital, and you're watching our 2 international. i'm your host donald quarter. welcome to the program. now, russian president vladimir putin has wrapped up the 1st round of talks with his uranian counterpart to interact with both sides underlining successful bilateral cooperation in different spheres. if there is a willingness for him, both parties to express political will and to bring our relations to a new practical level with our joint efforts to strengthen international security have been successful, especially with regard to the syrian settlement. both leaders have also said they want to expand their relations with a new strategic partnership. deal on the table and ahead of president putin visit russia gas prom signed a memorandum on a $40000000000.00 deal with around store state oil company. turkeys president is

also in toronto to meet with the russian, and radian leaders for bilateral and try lateral talks, ortiz alia, katrinka was interact with more on what's expected to come out of the summer. present 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, towards 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 into iran. we heard from the ambassador about the diplomatic game of chess that is now, and it's crucial stage was seniority moved to europe. there were due, so quite recently to ron, has literally turned into a mecca for numerous foreign delegations that are coming to iran. 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 to live. 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 the leaders of the 3 nations russia, turkey in a ran 4 years ago that syria soul life. at the end of the tunnel ahead of another summit in 10 wrong, 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 gram. i'd say to these youth who chased the main purpose of the visit to iran east to participate in the summit of the ascent troika, the guarantor countries of the syrian settlement process, russia, iran, and turkey. this is a very important format that has shown its viability and is the only international

format that is currently contributing to resolve in 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 and the islamic republic. russian and iranian companies apparently have nothing to lose now. trade and national currencies is picking up pace, ties are being expanded, and so many areas from space exploration to joined car manufacturing. the 2 countries are now expecting to sign a major strategic partnership agreement. yeah, the most talk to soon on the 1st of all we need to further increase trade turnover . our exports to iran have increased by more than 50 percent. and total trade turn over by more than 30 percent. so i hope that by the end of this year, we will break the record that we set last year by more than $4000000000.00. by the

end of the year, we will have many more business missions. representatives of russian businesses will come to iran and vice versa to russia. 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, flat m r. hooton'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 key of in months. we're expecting to hear more about that during latimer boot and strip to to iran. later this hour, we take a closer look at the use attempts to crack down on descent among the blogs member.

germany, chancellor has proposed wrapping the ve the veto, right of some e u countries saying the union needs to be on the in page when it comes to foreign policy that says brussel seats the united european front and its push for new sanctions against russia. more details on that and just a few minutes. meanwhile, that he was 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. it comes amid an ongoing western denial that restrictions against rush over ukraine have led to a global food crisis. this all is expected to be met with anger and key of where officials are now calling some of their western allies traders. as ortiz fiorella, isabel, explain, it seemed the less success ukraine has on the battlefield, the louder it shouts at its western allies. those ukraine once hailed us 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 calves, 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 done in the postal. this is not just about the turbine. this is about complying with sanctions. here there is one violation now it's only a matter of time before others will follow. you know, russia is duly some purpose, black mailing, others with gas and provoke and sanction breaches. ukrainians will never accept candy's decision regarding the nordstrom 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 thinks some of them should be tried at the hang. 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 to 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 friend, even because of the head of the country's top security service. and the other being a rena benedict to love. the prosecutor general beaufort, blamed for ramp and treason within their organizations. was the lensky saying that a large number of their staffers were working with russia? stone, the solution that he's 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 are working 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. kia 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 having faith in the support from its allies who are coming to realize that heavy consequences of their own sanctions. the 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 also been killed by russia, strikes on ukrainian military positions inside the diagnosed peoples republic plus several storage facilities with ammunition for weapons supplied by the u. s. in europe, we're also destroyed, according to moscow. meanwhile, in the russian controlled her san region of southern ukraine, a key bridge has been blocked with local officials, blaming cubes. forces,

persona authorities, se ukrainian troops used american supplied artillery rocket launchers to target the site. no casualties have been reported in that attack as key as military continues to shell residential areas. in the don boss, people's republics, the number of civilian casualties is mounting the with many children among them. unfortunately, ortiz roman culture have visited a mother who lost her daughter during the ukrainian strike on central done yet. 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, i can and has struck this place as the result at 10 year old girl was ripped apart and i spoke to her mom who is completely devastated.

ah, ah, ah, a new visitors bureau mac. me through it. okay, good. well, one it is. and when you, when you do load go, you go. good news, news. got you, but did you already been going over to walla? you said a sound good killer. obsidian new britain is the proof. the puzzle, more prosper. what dog poop under him coding, assembled on. mm mm. i have all my asian children. but the master he had any kids at the

good that over the 92 at the post the son throw great a ranch, occlusal for, for you to you. soon to deal with, veronica was at 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 then asked people's republic. ah, germany's chancellor has suggested the ending, the e. u. is vito policy for individual countries? that's as hungry, held up the implementation of the use 6th sanctions package against russia due to energy concerns. olaf schoultz has called the move selfish and says the veto right should be scrapped if the, 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 trend bounce 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 e. u. and neither now does german chancellor, olaf schultz, apparently, actually, if germany had been bothered to veto the use 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 you and the rest of the block wouldn't currently be facing an energy emergency which 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 unit said mil lower than 25 degrees celsius. if shows already 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 by mr. margaret thatcher, who viewed the e, was a threat to national sovereignty, warned in 1992, amid the eas creation that it risk becoming an economic strait jacket 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 suggests 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, clarity 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 resulted. yet there is a whole group of migrants 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, put on. okay, good. every euro put people there. good. give a close to him a not all 3 got a not dog gone as a not to another thing. old not to eat 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. taff janice dan. and we all form a collective of people who fight for equality and against racism. and that means obtaining housing and documents for every one, no matter the color of their skin or their nationality. the protest, her se 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 why 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 nicholas markovich says france has no real strategy for dealing with refugees from countries outside. ukraine just shows the negligent and incompetent of the french authorities to tackle and immigration. it's also showing how politicized the whole ukrainian immigration and is going on around from pratt has opened centers for ukrainians, which are apparently empty, where they're not enough ukrainians there where they're talking a lot about there's something on mainstream media saying that trap is open doors that it's helping ukraine and we're finding out that the centers are half occupied . i think what it shows essentially is that trance has no strategy, no problem whatsoever to greet the immigrants coming from abroad. i think the ukrainians are just a small,

tiny bit 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. some of the people in the end coming to the centers don't speak french, there's no courses pad for them. there's no jobs waiting for them. and it shows that these past years, governments in france, whether they be from the left or for the rights, have no program, have an open door policy that have nothing global supply chain disruptions due to western sanctions on russia are creating shortages of rare materials, forcing companies that rely on them to raise prices and look for alternatives. japan's main producers of car batteries made from lithium hydroxide have increased prices, almost 10 fold compared to last year. they've asked their clients to deal with it and accept the new expenses. russia accounts for 6 percent of global supplies of lithium hydroxide, which the country is still exporting prices for other metals used in car batteries, such as nickel and copper are also on the rise. but unlike oil rare minerals and

other compounds from russia are not under western sanctions. however, some battery producers have expressed concern over supplies of rare earth metals from russia. pakistan base economics expert shahita wizard says many countries will be affected by the ramifications of the shortages. the thing is, is that countries that are going to be affected, that industry is they're going to get affected. because if you don't like you were talking about japan and there are other countries also that are using russian macros. and if they can't get these supplies, if there are disruptions of the supply chain, then obviously there is going to be a vacancy. this problem for those industries. and i think there might be some doing okay. should've been just seems to other parts of the world. so i think it's going to be a pretty, it's going to have very bargaining effects on the structure of,

you know, industry and the location of industry to other countries. western sanctions against russia are bringing suffering to 3rd world countries like 3 lanka that's according to the impoverished south asian nations interim president, speaking at an international forum for preventing hunger and famine. does luca d sanctions that are being in boys? and i thought says is this man said he is sanction being russia? believe me, the thought shown on being rough. yeah. believe me. but it did mean that i saw the dog needs as for luck, as 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 are t corresponded. runjun sharma spoke with some of them. what is the bank club, ireland 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 short supply. just like everything else, with the demand so high, the weight seems endless. you feel long, you took dolphin cars outside battle 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. or the con day. going to look at maya, i leave my asthma and my kids. everything i live in going there was, yesterday gave them 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 student, all these he was outside gas stations, petrol 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 actually listen or engine sharma in columbus reporting for r t. and he is prime minister says this country is planning to become a large weapons exporter by building its own defense ecosystem. as of now, india mainly relies on imports from other nations for its military needs. ortiz, archie, chico, examines new daily's, moved towards self sufficiency. this is a radical shift drawn the policy that india has had followed on defense since 1927 since independence multi want stool. things in got in the direction of self reliance, sense sustainability and complete independence. spencer more be has given

a very clear guide detection for the indians in defense services. now he is asking them to not rely on any of the bottle weapons and arms and ammunition, but a goal for domestic production. today, a large part of the budget earmarked for the purchase of defense equipment is being spent on procurement from indian companies. in the last 4 or 5 years, our defense imports have come down by about 21 percent. today we are moving fast from the biggest defense importer to a big ex, border friends from or b has been trying very hard to change the or would our mindset within the bureaucracy within the political leadership as well. and in the us, defense services has been consistently underlining that india can not be dependent on others. we develop the habit of being dependent on foreign countries for even

the simplest products, like drug addicts we were addicted to the products imported from abroad. to change this mindset, we worked on mission mode after 2014, after learning from the approach of the past to create a new ecosystem of defense. clearly, branson more these lad. india has to fight on its own. india has to be less relying on strategic allies and he is moving in that direction. he's moving in the direction of basically self sustainability, self reliance in almost all sectors on the issue of ukraine. india remain neutral. india did not take any sides, and that was in alignment with this mindset with this thinking that we cannot be a partisan, we would rebuild not budge on our independence resolve the foreign policy. india stood by russia. these are we ukraine,

india did not war against russia. at the united nations, and this is part of that might said that india will maintain its strategic independence. whether it's, you know, warren, you green, or whether it's domestic reduction off weapons. 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 youth correctional facility, i have found myself under attacked by young inmates who are immature and just plain ignorant towards

a person like me. the new jersey department of corrections says he 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, but 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 the 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 danger for every detaining and not only minorities. and a lot of american persons. everyone's a very high risk of physical and sexual assault, not just transgender prisoners. 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 prison, just been alabama. and from january of this year, over 33 prisoners have died in alabama. prisons, most of them have been murdered by other prisoners. so, and as far as i know, another more transgender. so, i think a lot of respects, this kind of just illustrates the extreme danger and violence in many american prisons and jails. that literally exposes everyone to very high risk, well, injury or death. and just so happens that transgender prisoners tend to be more likely to be seriously injured in america, prisms, as a result of their, as a result of their gender. always good to have you here on the program at arcada international. stay tuned for more world news and just about 30 minutes. oh the.
