9:00 am
using ukraine as a proxy, the west has made it clear at once to russia that is weaker and isolated on the world stage. to date, these attempts have ended in failure. in fact, the opposite is happened. the west is weaker and isolated. with those who play with fire will come to no good and those who offend china must be penalized intentions. sanctions and military drills follow in the wake of nancy pelosi footsteps she leaves. china warns that quote from washington on this self governed island will face consequences. over the u. s. holly speakers culture personal visit. i think wall of silence goes out from the you officials over policies. trip with the only states meant being that there's no change to the policies to which china also had on the program. this, our russia blames are gross violation of its security interest by nato countries
9:01 am
for bringing on the possibility of a direct conflict between nuclear powers. but outside moscow, once a world free of atomic with just after 4 in the afternoon here in the russian capital on this the 1st wednesday of august. my names, you know, neil, this is art international. china has begun military drills in areas surrounding tie. the move comes in response to the visit of us. how is speaker nancy pelosi to taipei, beijing announced plans for 6 zones in circling taiwan where it would carry out at live fire drills including missile launches. ah
9:02 am
ah. how speaker pelosi departed taiwan earlier today during her visit, she met the territories presidents who 100 tiny ones highest, the owner or her contribution to us taiwan relations. that's us, us officials. i've repeatedly stated, washington does not support taiwanese independence. while lucy said her visit was evidence of america's commitment to supporting democracy on the island. the u. s. a representative speaker was the highest ranking american official to visit taiwan
9:03 am
and a quarter of a century. ah, let's discuss the story now with our teeth nikia. hi there, nikki. it's been a, a controversial tour to say the least. i think the question is, what happens now? what are some of the possible consequences of policies visit? oh yeah, it was literally a flying visit for pelosi wasn't as you arrive late on tuesday, not less than 24 hours later. she's already on that plane back home, but he's the briefest of visits. that's going to have such a significant impact as we're already starting to see. although this trip spoke something of pelosi love fast if you like in taiwan. like you said, she was awarded the highest civilian awards during her brief trip there in beijing . that fury they wound pelosi against making this trip again and again. and it's been a long time since tensions with this high in a statement issued on wednesday, chinese foreign minister one gee, he did mean his words in revealing china stones on. if he talks about those who play with fire, those who offend china will be punished is becoming very clear that those were not
9:04 am
just words were already seeing a robust response to this unprecedented visit. china has not these military drills that will take part in, sees that just 10 miles from taiwan that you to start on thursday and lots of 5 days. it's worth mentioning that these will include long, long range, live ammunition shooting and will also take place in some of the worlds busiest waterways. so china's military has warned everybody against using bass waterways for 3 days. now it's going to be interesting to see whether the us and high one military will choose to take this advice. i'm trying to kill, you know, they don't like to take advice from china. they've shown that with this visit, or whether they choose to test the chinese resolve and continue to send both and planes into the zones. now we can take listen to how the rhetoric has evolved over the past few hours, which is the aggression. let's take listen to she told me she's such
9:05 am
retrogressive. moose won't change the international consensus that there's only one china in the world, nor they can reverse the historical trend of unification of the mainland and taiwan . those who play with fire will come to no good end, and those who offend china must be penalized. we resolutely defend national sovereignty and will counter any aggression against national sovereignty. we will strengthen our vigilance with a rational attitude which won't escalate conflicts. and maybe just all not point. no, it's not all about military action. is it even more significant in parts economic issues? they've been to the forefront in terms of some of the reaction here. absolutely. china's already taken move to impose a quick economic response to they said controversial trip by policy on tuesday. china levied new input bonds are more than 100 taiwanese products, so called import suspensions on 35
9:06 am
a tie when he's exports of biscuits and pastries. since monday, though, it's unclear if more suspensions are being plans, but you know, we've tried to really wants to stick the boots and it could target taiwan is biggest export is by value that would be, you know, at electronics and pas machinery, plastic and chemicals. a global market is already spooked even prior to this visit . so we have stocks and semi conduct parts already falling on tuesday ahead of pelosi, the rifle, and high want to be along with global markets investors. they've grace for the economic fallout from this trip. that's the big one, isn't that they in terms of the economy, the semi conductors we heard a lot about that in the immediate reaction about whether that would affect the market taiwan itself. nicky, what's it saying? well, on the one hand, like i said, we've seen this pelosi love fest, for instance in the local media. that comparisons to audrey hepburn, posies outfit, was ambling something. audrey hepburn once more, many years ago. the other other flattering comments. others are
9:07 am
a little bit more conscious of the precarious impact that this trip will have. the former taiwanese on the i took the twitter to voice his concerns. danny nanny pill. what jim in below see what the hell i'm doing here right now? how come all the way here to support the taiwanese people? support yourself. you want to support us to fight against the people from duration army that americans always ask us to let more taiwanese people join the army whenever you come to taiwan. to mo, want us to buy more weapons from you and fight against the people's liberation army . in urban terrain, it's none of your business. i'm here to support. i want your to provoke a war. what the hell are you doing here below see the relationship between the mainland and taiwan is already very tense. you are supporting to wine, what we don't need your support. you are literally purring oil on the plane. you only make things worse. on the streets of taiwan, a mixed reaction. we've got those who support policies, visits wholeheartedly. we have others who think that she is just causing trouble
9:08 am
with this trip and it's their over hyped trip. so let's take lessons one. the one i think it is the u. s. policy, they just care about themselves. they don't care about the problem of ordinary people in other countries. i think it is wrong to just do what the us wants. policy should respect the will of the taiwanese people. i soon, though, maybe try to clarify us. rather, it's so many times. okay, duct the old story, the always come, you know, we come on. oh, well, the way it will somewhat affect i one, but will it affect our daily normal lives? i personally think it will not at least for the next 2 years. so what we're seeing play out now is this ripple effect is the shortest of visit by nancy pelosi and you know that the 1st us how speak it's a visit taiwan in 25 years. and as when i ripples tend to waves the how and these ways will be felt globally,
9:09 am
but how significantly we're gonna have to wait and see in the next few hours in days. yeah, we certainly will. i'm sure i won't be too long until we see the immediate reaction, at least nikki, thanks very much. ortiz nikia what you're saying with this investigative journalist edwards, sol, believes pelosi visit to taiwan, was meant as a destruction from america's own issues at home. we have another example of the united states overextending itself and for example with nancy pelosi, i think all this visit was, well, the, a high, a high cost distraction that people, as you know, said the average american can't even point out where tiwana is on a map passes the cost of food, the cost of fuel. these are the things that after americans care about. but then we see nancy pelosi taking a little bit of vacation around the world and at a time when trying to nothing but to gain from digger bowl churchill. now they get the entire world to concentrate on sure what their motor is capable. what the show is, 1st of all, is the child is able to project power for its own country. time is easy to turn on
9:10 am
the doorstep. you're going to see the use of futuristic, i'll take interest, but high technology, long range, ballistic missiles. they're going to use this as the firing mechanism for many of the indirect bar there to show off. and the reason going to do this is because the united states are so counter to one. another aspect to this nancy pelosi visit to taiwan was met really with a wall of silence from european governments. according to the only official statement from the e u, the block is not rushing to publicly support the move of the u. s. representative at all. we have seen the recent media reports about the arrival and taiwan of the speaker of the us house of representatives, nancy pelosi. we don't have any specific comments to add. we encourage the peaceful resolution of the issues in the strait. the e u and the member states remain committed to the use one china policy. i will ask
9:11 am
you to take all this from our tea contributor rachel marston. hi there, rachel. we know you officials like to talk, but not exactly a flood of reaction coming from them. is there a regarding policies that to taiwan yeah, the reaction within the european union to air pelosi touching down in taiwan is remarkable by its deafening silence. exactly. it's one thing for you to pay lip service to what it calls the preservation of peace in a rather boiler plate statement that it put out that it apparently took a whole day to come off with, which is kind of unusual because they're so used to mo, thing off so quickly when it comes to global conflicts, particularly involving us. but why is it so suddenly shy about taking sides this time? especially when speaking out could act as a counterweight to a washington provocation and prevent conflict or war. if the you had done the same in ukraine,
9:12 am
that is have the courage to stand up against washington's constant provocations on the russian border. then maybe it wouldn't now be bearing the economic brunt of its own, ideologically driven anti russian sanctions. and sure, nancy pelosi as speaker of the house is the 3rd top ranked american official fair enough, but she's also a career as on to look at her when it comes to china. in particular, washington post is called this trip a culmination of decades of challenging china. sure, whatever floats your boat, nancy pelosi. but you can't then argue that her presence in taiwan, which let's face it, washington exploits as a proxy to go. china is just business as usual, and not a provocation. it's too bad that europe blacks real states than these days, like former french president, jacques chirac or former german chancellor. gerhard schroeder, who took an unwavering stand against washington's drive for war in iraq, 2 decades ago, alongside russian president vladimir putin. the question is why are european leaders so lacking, encouraged to speak out against
9:13 am
u. s. foreign policy. and instead, making weak neutral mealy mouthed statements around taiwan. maybe ally, silas is the result of seeing how some of them have been lambasted by their western counterparts for even suggesting rational diplomacy as a path forward instead of provocation. for example, former nato secretary jan. anders fog rasmussen even considered that french president. amen. reverend my cause paul for diplomacy with russia over ukraine was directly harmful to taiwan. so now apparently, according to this esteem, former nato chief, if you aren't actively provoking russia using ukraine or provoking china using taiwan. then you're basically inviting war. likewise, canadian prime minister justin trudeau was given flock last year for stopping and nato linked forums. provocation of china over taiwan trudeau intervene to stop the halifax security form, which is held regularity in canada. from giving tie winds president. it's john
9:14 am
mccain, at ward, named after the late yukon war hawk. american senator, who has had an uncanny knack of turning up in places like ukraine in syria, not long before through trouble started. there are other cases of you officials getting in trouble for standing against washington foreign policy provocations. like when you ambassador to cuba and bit alberto navarro openly stood against you. i sanctions in cuba or against cuba and was subsequently recalls to brussels to explain himself even though the e u. s. cube is main export and trading partner. brussels missed a golden opportunity here to lead on the world stage over at this time on drama. and to position itself as a truly honest broker, which would have meant not simply calling for peace, but also taking a firm public unambiguous stand against dangerous games, played by washington. ly, from the french capital, are to contribute our rachel marston. thanks rachel. ok, let's turn attention to
9:15 am
a developing story from just outside moscow this hour. a blazing inferno hasn't got a huge warehouse belonging to wall of rushes. largest online retailers are always on 11 people have reportedly been injured. people have been posting videos of the incident on social media. giant, calmer spoke, can be seen filming into the sky above the warehouse live pictures right now. all of that seem taking place over some 35000 square meters. knob is the the size of the warehouse according to workers. the fire broke out during the lunch break roughly a couple of hours ago. now at part of that, buildings roof has collapsed. we're looking at the pictures early, you could see still flames, but really know at just smoke going off into the sky. more than
9:16 am
a 1000 people were evacuated. stuff's been reported from the warehouse, although for are said to be missing will be keeping a close eye and developing from just outside moscow where that plays erupt at the threats of a direct conflict between world nuclear powers is evident, untouchable not according to a russian diplomats attending a much vaunted un conference on arms control. group number senior principle around the, the gross violation of the principle of equal and indivisible, security as a result of the harmful expansion of the military block of countries claiming undivided military, strategic and geo political dominance provoked and acute crisis in the center of europe. the hybrid military campaign has been unleashed against russia, which could result in a direct conflict between nuclear power system. and a review conference for the nonproliferation of nuclear weapons is currently being
9:17 am
held in new york. your mission of etzky at once again, reaffirm moscow's commitment to build a world free of nuclear weapons. however, he also underlined their progress at g over the years. vote has been devalued by the u. s. when they ignored russia. security interest, at least in moscow, also say that once the immediate resumption of the iran nuclear deal arguing there is no alternative and on the latter issue, it comes while the u. s. is pointing the finger up to around imposing yet more sanctions on its petroleum industry. washington is demanding, the country returns to the park near the joint comprehensive plan of action, which the u. s. itself quit. under president trump we have imposed sanctions on entities trading in iranian petroleum and petro chemicals. we will keep using our authorities to target wrong exports of these products until iran is ready to return to full implementation of its commitments under a mutual return to the jcp away. american study professor at the university of iran
9:18 am
food zombie believes the idea of sanctioning a run for the deal that the u. s. itself quit, signifies the current chaos amid washington's political establishment. you know, the united states has an addiction on sanctions. they have the sanctioning iraq and for the last for the is so you don't, hasn't been surviving. and there's sanctions. i mean prospect under sanctions admin sciences and in different fields of providing services of the people here are quite extensive. and sooner or later, the american official realize that by sanctioning countries, they're not going to each of the objectives. they have was the united states that left the agreement during the top administration. and by that administration could
9:19 am
return to the agreement on the 1st day of by the presidency. the same that he did with the paris climate accord and other agreements that tom had left. he refused. there are lots of problems in washington. there's a lot of disagreement and in fighting, and the run and government alterations your life. if they don't pay attention to this chaos in washington, they're going to face the same difficulty that they faced last time. washington is directly involved than the conflict in ukraine. that's how the russian defense ministry has reacted to revelations, from a top ukrainian official who admitted the us advice is key of on high more strikes and has absolute veto power. if it's not satisfied with the target. sure thing, every room about all this proves that futilely that washington country to the
9:20 am
statements of the white house and the pentagon is directly involved in the conflict and ukraine. it is the by an administration that is directly responsible for all the rockets attacks improved by kiev, residential areas and civilian infrastructure in the settlements of dumbass and other regions which resulted in the mass death of civilians. russia has for months now accused the united states of playing a much more direct role in this conflict than what the united states admitted to it was a just weapons they were said didn't training that they were giving to ukrainian soldiers food that they was saving them to eat salaries that they were paying them. but it also appears faxed to the comments of the head of ukraine's main intelligence directors that the united states appears to be vetting, vetting targets that the, that the ukrainian side is, is attacking. so. so in this case, we can presume that the united states greenlighted attacks of several attacks on
9:21 am
half a dozen o been communities on the city of the nearest god, chips, nova kafka, others urban areas, residential areas, which will undoubtedly awe struck by you u. s. provided weapons, visa, high mas, rockets guided missiles that the united states has provided to the kia for use in this conflict. the united states as a strike to say that, you know, argue that each role is much more limited. but if this is indeed true, that the united states has veto power over every strike that it does kill, to show that the united states as a much, much more involved role in this conflict. as far as military intelligence is concerned, britain and the u. s. have provided almost everything from information to equipment . he suggested there was a level of consultation between intelligence officials of both countries prior to launching missiles that would allow washington to stop any potential attacks if
9:22 am
they were unhappy with the intended target. he was also uh pressed by journalists on where they got that targeted information from. and he said that they operate with real time information, which is presumably a satellite satellite footage imagery which ukraine couldn't, is possibly come by on its own. so this is presumably again, a real time satellite information that is provided to them who he refused to confirm, but will deny this provided to them by the c i. m, i 6, the united states and great britain basically further there was a strike on juliet of co which was on a prison where more than a 1000 ukrainian prisoners of wool ah, house that he's out of prison. the prisoners are these ukrainian regulars. it after an attack again by an american high mas multiple, a rocket launcher system, more than 50 ukrainian prisoners of war parish, 75, others were injured so, so,
9:23 am
so by the logic of what this ukranian official admitted to the united states greenlighted these attack on a prison, as well as other attacks on, on civilian infrastructure, visually intensified and lend strength to russian. russia's accusations that the united states is playing a much more involved and much more dangerous role than was previously than was previously known. which again, opens up avenues for, for an escalation that nobody absolutely nobody wants. ah, can another story? we're closely following protests over soaring electricity rates in south africa have left at least 4 people dead. ah, yeah, pretty much a picture of chaos. there are locals barricaded roads, wood burning tires. they said municipal buildings,
9:24 am
a lights near the country's largest city. johannesburg. protesters are angered out the government's failure to find a solution to rising prices. it comes amid soaring global energy and food course, which leaves the african continent, especially vulnerable, with countries lacking funds to help their crisis hit city i. the mood is built healthier following days of protests here in san visa. as you can see, the fil, a strong police presence controlling the area and making sure that that can be any more upheaval. following the burning of a civic center building, as well as some damage to private property with more money has to be put out to this and didn't i think it was not necessary. i don't think there might be, frankly, so today we don't have the outcomes that they were expecting. i don't see them
9:25 am
or to see children are not going to school with commerce. this is the civic center building or at least what remains of it. this is where people in to be thought used to come to get municipal services. and it is the very building that was pushed. there is worry in this country that these kinds of protest could engulf other tally ships in south africa. and they could evolve into an uncontrollable mess, as we have seen during last year's july, riots that are in go to major provinces in south africa. it is common in south africa that people vote with their feet and take to the street. but what is become interested is the loss of life that accompanies such protest came to visa for people have already lost their life. and if the semblance of life gets back,
9:26 am
it appears that this feel very much tension and debra kay from africa to south asia, a huge political scandal has erupt. it in the indian capital, after several prominent opposition figures were arrested from money laundering, hordes of cash gold, and drury refund in their homes in new delhi ortiz region sharma, reports. so prominent politically does the opposition bodies in the out on the police and force men directly? the agency investigating economic offenses in india has recently, some congress is intern president, sonya dumpy, and her son, randi, in a money laundering case related to the national. a national newspaper was founded by india. first, find minnesota on the freedom fighters 1958 to be always to liberally done within the indian national congress. now another leader of a regional party should say,

9:28 am
calling of the government for what they see is when the top politics, while the ruling will, the government says that this is not a political case, but simply the law of the land. and that the law is equal for every one spawning a gap in the market, accelerating straight into it that is want to money fuck of russian overland vehicles has dawned in our run after to run halted the import of western passenger cars a number of years ago ever since then, the company's been on a road to success. ah, with the car is extremely big and spacious in terms of size and for me who takes a lot of equipment on trips. it's very good to put it simply the car has out run is competitive considering its price and reliability
9:29 am
with joe, i believe the reason behind the success of this imported car originated from the fact that there are no sanctions between iran and russia. so iran can easily transfer money to russia and buy the parts for this car. ah, yellow, they have many happy adventures in them too. now we can sometimes get bogged down with so much historical background to what's happening today and on boss. so a concise breakdown may just be what's needed. it's a head, right? mm.
