a new project in northern siberia. ah, hello and welcome to the program bureau is about the top stories for this. our washington is proposing a trade deal with moscow for the release of to american citizens. and the deal would reportedly involve russian arm steeler, victor boot basketball, player, brittany griner, and convicted spy paul whelan. earlier the white house said the u. s. is preparing to take the quote, extraordinary steps to bring the americans home. we made a substantial offer to secure the release of paul whalen and brittany griner. the president and his team are willing to take extraordinary steps to bring our people home. victor boot is a convicted arms dealer, an interpreter who was arrested by the f. b i in 2012 a u. s. court sentence, him to 25 years in prison, for arming

a terrorist group and conspiring to kill american citizens. britney greiner meanwhile, is currently on trial in moscow for possession of marijuana and bringing drugs into russia. while paul whelan, a former us marine convicted of espionage, is currently serving a 16 year sentence in russian prison. us secretary of state anthony blinking said earlier, he would be soon discussing the release of these 2 people with his russian counterpart . i plan to raise an issue that's a top priority for us. the release of americans, paul whelan and brittany griner, who been wrongfully detained. and must be allowed to come home. we put a substantial proposal on the table weeks ago to facilitate their release. our government communicated repeatedly and directly on that proposal. and i'll use the conversation to follow up personally. and i hope move us toward a resolution. as of yet, there has been no confirmation from rush inside of such a discussion or deal. but if a prisoner swap happens,

it would be the 1st time this year. back in april, russian pilot konstantin ya roach. jenko was traded for a u. s. national trevor read. earlier, i spoke to civil rights attorney robert pio, who says that the reason the u. s. is looking to strike a deal for brittany griner is for public clamor. is to strike a deal. is the public clamor for brittany griner to be released. what we've seen is that there's many social media outcry pushing for the release of miss griner personal every status, of course, is part of it being a member of the african american community and a member of the l. g. b t q, community, here in america. and lead to many people spinning points and lot of emphasis on her release. i think the, the russian tried to get into more from this deal. brittany greiner the q, so not drug trafficking, but according to her testimony today in court, accidentally for getting a cartridge that belongs to a vapor and her bag. that was,

that was illegal in russia. respect to the sovereignty of fer nations. but i think that's a big difference between that and being a arms dealer as mister about. so i think russia comes out on the better end of this tray. but given the nature of the publicity around this, this is change the willing to make this. this swap here says it wants washington to hand over more effective multi role at 16 fighter jets instead of a single rural a 10 attack plains are 2 contributor rachel mars that explains how ukraine has gone from begging for western help to boston around its patrons. the west has been bending over backwards, trying to accommodate ukraine's requests, since the outset of the conflict and some of them as been pretty wild calls for weapons resulted in european union countries giving away their own to the detriment of their own national security cause for sanctions resulted in the u, sanctioning its own gas supply to the detriment of their own citizens and industry

. ukraine president vladimir zalinski had even asked the west for a no fly zone over ukraine, which could feasibly have led to a direct arab war and conflict and shoot out between nato and russia. thankfully, he didn't get that. the message constantly being peddled by zalinski towards the west is that its efforts aren't enough. it's never enough. and now ukraine wants to go after prominent wall street establishment figures personally, alleging war crimes against ukraine by executives of j. p. morgan chase city group and hsbc. according to one of zalinski economic advisors in order all were beast companies and richer routes that are in meet them. ready war arms b, m a r, and nancy and war are criminals. so basically you want to, to see them prosecuted for war crimes, is what you're saying. exactly. the same adviser had previously contacted heads of the financial institutions to tell them how to run their companies demanding that

they refused to engage with companies that sell in trade, russian oil or gas, or in russian energy chairs like gas prom ross, snuff, luke oil and v told teams zalinski is threatening to pursue the managers of these wall street companies, personally, all the way to the international criminal court, which the u. s. doesn't actually recognize. in fact, the united states passed the head convention ox in 2002 during the global war on terrorism, which allows the u. s. to liberate any american or a citizen of an allied country held by the court. presumably, much to the disappointment of some that would probably also include wall street executives the same. impunity with which washington sparks foreign conflicts, including the one currently raging in ukraine. also means that zalinski is facing an uphill battle in boston around american financial interests. ukraine also

apparently wants to participate in american cancel culture now and cancel prominent figures. it dislikes an entity link to the who ukrainian government has just published. a list of russian propagandists featuring prominent us elected officials, journalists, and academics who even dare to question the conventional western narrative on ukraine. and these figures on the list include republican senator, ram paul, former rep, tulsa gabbert, a democrat from hawaii, university of chicago professor and international relations theorist. john mearsheimer, an pulitzer prize winning journalist, the land greenwald. meanwhile, over here in europe, ukraine is telling the you to ask of russian citizens filling up visa applications, whether they support russia's role in the conflict and ukraine. different polls show that over 80 percent of russians still support the war, they should not get access to the free world. it'll be interesting to see how far

the west actually goes in allowing team zalinski to call the shots here in the west . maybe zalinski can achieve the impossible, actually succeed in cleaning up wall street. russians applying for e visas should face a mandatory questionnaire on whether they support the military operation and ukraine. that's a proposal from campus, special envoy on sanctions will also says, most russians share responsibility for what's happening we insist that those russians who support this genocidal war and different poll showed that over 80 percent of russians still support the war, they should not get access to the free world, the ukrainian authorities, they filtering a you visas for russians would encourage people to speak out against moscow policies. the proposed questionnaire touches upon the support for military action, as well as the involvement of family members in the conflict earlier ukraine unilaterally suspended it's visa, free agreement with russia, with kept saying it will fully scrap the deal by next year. russia says it has not

taken any tit for tat measures so far. earlier, my colleague donald quarter got an insight from bradley blankenship, a u. s. journalist and political commentator, and from dr. yen oberg, the director of the trans national foundation for peace and future research. both of whom have been put on ukraine's blacklist. they also shared their opinion on filtering, e. u, leases for russians. another of key of suggestions. tony then i didn't even know i was on the list until somebody on twitter and said, hey, this guy's on zalinski specialists. i had no idea. and so i look at it. and i have to say that i'm actually quite honored to be on this list. i mean, most of these people on here i admired quite a lot, i'm sorry that there are people in that relatively limited intellectual capacity. was put me that though, at least looking quite bizarre to me. i want to people who you could not accuse of

being pro, show or appeal to me. so something like that. obviously we know that the ukranian authorities have been cracking down on political opposition. what do you think this says about key of attitude towards concepts like freedom of speech and democracy? i think that they're kind of taking a book out of the playbook of a lot of what american liberals do, which is to just accuse everyone they disagree with them being a russian propaganda. of course, we see this all over the democratic party, propaganda and liberal media in the united states. what strikes me is more that you have this can is not true for argument in the western world that you cry. and it is a passing democracy that is queued in the western world where people must know that that is not a democracy with freedoms that officially in the western world are emphasizing and advocating and have been looking over the world with bad

results. and now becoming more and more or sorry, terry and themselves as they say that the questionnaire will encourage russians to pressure the government to stop the conflict. how do you think that that will do so? just really going to put people into a position where they know that their only option to get to be so that they want to go to europe is to speak out against the government. whether not they support it or not. and i think that it's, it's this whole immoral to have this standard of collective responsibility on russian people. and it is deeply immoral, hypocritical, double standard, you know, limiting contact between people is the most stupid thing you can do. secondly, you know, collective punishment which the west has done now is a violation of international law. it is prohibited to do collective punishment of a whole paper by means of sanction, or exclusion,

or cancelling or whatever it is. so i don't know where we're going with this, but we are eroding international law and principles and morals as was just said. and i regret that very much because that takes us further away from a peaceful solution. if there are no principle left in this world, we will end up with a nuclear war. and now to the latest from ukraine, russia defense ministry says to high position, strikes of kill 200 ukrainian soldiers in the southern city of nic alive, russian missiles are set to have targeted a concrete factory. were kept. strips had set up a base mosque also says strikes have destroyed for ukrainian military command post in the past 24 hours in that dead net prop it drops. region and arm stockpile was targeted and more than 100 rockets for western supplied high mars launchers are said to have been destroyed with 120 ukrainian troops also killed. meanwhile, in the don bath, a machine building plant in the city of portable south has caught fire as

a result of ukrainian shelling and military has struck the plant. 20 times fracturing a gas pipeline, no casualties have been reported as of yet, but the neighboring city of yazzy nova tire is also being relentless. the shelf by kids forces are tease roman culture ref. reports from the ground. ah, the city of yes, nevada is shelled on a daily basis. schilling continues right now, as i speak. it's adjacent to the capital of zone nets and the people here are injured and are being killed every single day. right now, i'm going to speak to some of the people which were wounded by ukraine in the military, just recently, loyal for dinner. i was feeding dogs that day when the shelling began in the mines started exploding somewhere up the street, but then one exploded just near me. i did not even feel it. i don't know how i

survived, molested her bubble of terror valuable. i lost my leg. i was in the yard when the shelling began. i got up in the morning on 2 legs, and the next thing i knew i was in intensive care with one which is i was brought there in a tank. i've been in hospital since may, but now i'm going to be discharged and i want to go home. i really want peace. i want the money spend to buy weapons to be spent on ordinary people for sitting there with recently it's civilians that suffer not the military. the showing goes on every day to day. for example, we have a new person wounded, a man who went out to throw out his garbage and got hit by shrapnel, which it goes on and on on a daily basis. it's been happening for 8 years. 8 long years of shelling. they are showing peaceful people. it seems that they are not even aiming just ravaging the city. there are hundreds of elderly people here in eastern nevada who have absolutely no access to food, water, or electricity,

and they rely on humanitarian missions. in order to survive to day, we brought some food vegetables, fruits, canned goods. of course, these people are also relying on others who live here. he's in the law there who will deliver the, sued to them. no, he said, that's what vall of many hide in basement. my house has been constantly hit by bomb fragments. we try to help people to buy medicines, to deliver food. you. people help by transferring money. we're holding on getting stronger. we believe that everything will be fine. well, our trip, so yes in nevada had to be cut short because really heavy shilling began and just to be safe, we decided to drive back to desk. however, our mission today was complete as were delivered food and medicine to the people of

use in nevada, from on call for a hearty dentist people's republic. meanwhile, going ask officials have announce draft agreement on the establishment of a tribunal to try mercenaries fighting for your grade. however, some have already been sentence such as british fighter, aiden azlan, who faces the death penalty after being accused of mercenary activities. azlan has been knocking on every door in an effort to escape the sentence, but still has little help from his very own government. i'm just calling to see if there's any updates on my situation or my case. i mean, no, no. i mean, we, we, you know, we are continuing to, wow, to press a date. i

think with quality trickles, it trickles. it trickles situation and we are trying to a i love the way it had been speaking to the foreign office in asking them to help my situation. to like to try and organize some sort of negotiations or diplomatic efforts to help me returned my family and, you know, i've, i've made multiple attempts to them like every week and, you know, it's, it's the same. same thing again, they tell me all this work going on, but there's never any. it's all talk in no, like physical like, like visibility. it's the same thing from that. it has been from the very beginning that we're working on your case, your top priority,

and this is what ukraine said. they said, i'm a top priority yet. i'm still here and i've seen friends who go to the exchange. there's been free free exchanges since i've been in captivity. friends have gone, but yet as ukraine say, i'm a top priority and i'm still here. and it's the same with the british, the british government. i asked them like that. have you thought about trying to at least contact to be a meditator at least if you train doesn't want to speak? maybe you guys can like be a meditator between the 2. and i says like, no, we don't want to do that because detail is not official. and i said to them like, yes, the deep or might not be official. however, you guys speak to the in y p g and syria, who owns official. i was there in 2017 when britain sent representatives from, from the government to work on it. and they speak with a certain core curtain with certain curds like what b, g, the not recognized by anyone in the world. so it's,

it's hypocritical for the british government to tell me they can't speak to the dpr because the official, but yet, i know they speak to the say in y p g, even though they're not official while the group of 7 richest economies reportedly aims to have a price tapping mechanism on russian oil exports in place by december, 5th rushes largest oil company is beginning a new project in northern siberia, f r t 's, maria f. a notion gives us an exclusive look from the site in russia's extreme north. beyond the polar circle with the arctic ocean, just 500 kilometers away. this is where russia extracts much of its oil. when they says, well, folk oil project that cover is $52.00 areas. one enriches extreme hostile environmental, northern siberia. with 13 oil and gas pill don't really, it is covered, and more coming will be one of the biggest all projects in global energy sector. adver it's entire was source base amounts at $6000000.00 tons of premium oil

rushes, the largest oil company runs napped is behind this multi $1000000000.00 project. the company c o has dub, divorced off, and noah's ark for the oil based global economy. and i see a few in russia given its energy potential and a portfolio of 1st class projects such as boston oil can fulfill long term global needs for affordable energy resources. and it certainly is an arc of salvation like noah's ark was stuck. oil is the biggest down the only project of such scale in the world, and it is also the only project capable of having a stabilizing effect on the energy market. drill in here is not easy, but it is happening across the oil field. learn powerful all rig quotes and russian made they can more, 6 kill. i'm going to be well very fast. and also called project is expected to

produce 100000000 tons of oil annually by 2030. not only the project ambitious, but also eco friendly. for example, he doesn't burn the natural gas extracted along with the oil instead, using it to produce green energy for the projects needs and make no mistake. animals are safe to the pipeline runs at a certain height above the ground measures so that local animals can easily pass. and denise was especially important. the oil running these pipes is claimed to be over the premium quality that is strictly checked in numerous more to read on every stage of production. when your criminal justice could great differs from russia, swags and heavy euros, it is lighter, much easier to refine. and what's more important law sulphur, it smells well how by the way, hand it is yet to be named, then you oil will receive its name or brand after it's finished versions,

formula is ready before that it is referred to by the place it is extracted from like van car, key cluster of the big project. this is the banker's central parts, how as they call it here, the oil fields kitchen. this is where oil is extracted from the liquid palm from the on the ground. this is what this complicated net of pipe service for. this is where the ready oil is stored and those are their wars. and from here it goes to the pipeline is on formula breaks during the implementation of the roster coil project. the station will be the starting point for the transportation of oil to the north from the bank or cluster. almost 800 kilometers of trunk lines are to be billed to cross rushes. no than timely peninsular. as well as a major oil terminal on the coast of the cot i see, to deliver the oil to the buyers. ah, the bob

with . and that will only be the 1st stage, the construction will go on after the terminal starts functioning until it's able to process at least $100000000.00 tons of oil a year. this will cover the year ago, there was a see here since then, an artificial plot of land has been built a unique structure in the i, matt take implementation of the time year of region. now the policy being submerged . the depth is more than 20 meters, time is

a harsh region for both work and housing. the projects proximity to the northern is the route, is a competitive advantage has a drastically reduces costs for transport in the oil and lawyers. the projects dependence on politically unstable supply chains that makes the oil more affordable and reliable for customers around the world. class. the company says that 98 percent of all the equipment here is domestically produced. when according fannan, we're at a new facility, the polar power plant. this is the heart of our new project. it will provide the capacity for the start of the vast stock oil project. in the future development of the oil fields. we use russian turbines. these are the 1st turbines of this kind produced in russia. there are no equivalents of this equipment with similar capacity in russia right now. this is ours, it's new and it's russian, and that is awesome. but foreign partners are also welcome to participate. as you,

as you are the project, lives on and develops as planned, inevitable difficulties are being overcome. but we are full confidence that all the tasks will be completed. we need to do this before the big flood. we will be glad to see our friends take part in this noah's ark construction project for the global economy. mary from ocean are r t reporting from timer peninsula in rational than siberia. now to the netherlands, where local farmers have resumed, protest against the government's plans to introduce new green laws that will affect their businesses. some of the protesters have been blocked. flock roads by dumping minority highways and even some thought. some of the piles on fire. the activists i've been rallying for the best part of 3 weeks after the government announced the plans to cut nitrogen oxide pneumonia emissions by 50 percent farmers claim this move would significantly harm their livelihoods and simply put them out of business

. and the dutch protesters of found support across the atlantic with canadian farmers gathering an ottawa tobacco european colleagues concerns the hundreds gathered near the dutch embassy in canada capital to voice or anger about amsterdam policy protesters many struggling to deal with the new burden of taxes on russia fertilizer chanted no farmers, no food outside the building. the canadian agricultural consulting are event kinkel told us that those pushing a green agenda fail to understand how the agricultural business works. i think the green agenda is something that's very attracted by a group of individuals who maybe aren't far removed to

understand the whole system worse and wait for me to to see the decisions are based on what some people feel is green and what maybe isn't. so green because they only see the negative impact of the positives. i think maybe the western world has become so complacent in what we've done and how we conduct business. amongst other things. there's many other places with very fertile land and have the ability to produce a lot of places like like russia or a threat to them. ready they are still ru orders, they're hard to work in letting entrepreneurs go forward.

i think we put people in such financial scares, you can see people, maybe exit the industry, going to. ready ready people not dare invest in an industry, and i think, you know, keep people look to other countries to maybe pursue their career there. i don't understand where this was beneficial to, to anybody. ah. and now on to america, we're whistleblowers have come forward to a senior senate republican alleging that the f. b. i sought to discredit negative information about the us president, son, hunter bite. and during the 2020 presidential elections, our teeth caleb mop and explains how the situation is developing. chuck grassley, top republican on the senate judiciary recently compose an open letter to the f. b i. he expressed concern about the agency's role and possibly covering up scandalous

information about under by during the 2020 presidential election. his father was running. according to grassley, it looks like america's top law enforcement ages was working to protect the biden family and their reputation. there was a scheme in place among certain f, b, i officials to undermine derogatory information connected to hunter biden, by falsely suggesting it was does information. if these allegations are true and accurate, the justice department and f b, i are and have been institutionally corrupted to their very core to the point in which the united states congress and the american people will have no confidence in the equal application of the law. pretty serious words there and what exactly is being lat. the information provided to my office involves concerns about the f, b, i's receipt and use of derogatory information relating to hunter biden and the f. b . i's false portrayal of acquired evidence as does information. the volume and consistency of these allegations substantiate their credibility and necessitate

this letter. when hunter by the laptops surface, the f b, i went out of their way to call it dis, information. spite, numerous and white revealing leafs. dear hunter, thank you for inviting me to d. c. and giving an opportunity to meet your father and spend some time together. it's really an honor and pleasure. the details from this laptop from hell as rudy giuliani. donald trump's former personal lawyer once described it, showing shady dealings and all kinds of corruption, repair, kept out of public view. in fact, the f b, i reportedly wasn't even interested in having a hard drive itself. i said, well don't you want thieves? and they said, what are they? i said those are hard to biden's hard dress and they said no, no, no, no, no. i said, are you sure you don't want? i mean the, the ward required them to take it. and they said no. now with the election day closing in, the democrats were apparently working overtime to prove.
