hello and welcome to international, but coming to live from the russian capital. my name is paul, is clear. thanks so much for joining us. it's faith 3 of china's large scale military exercises in the region in response to ty, one's hosting of you as how speaker nancy pelosi. aah! as part of that life fire drills blazing has learned multiple missiles including ballistic ones. experts claim it was the 1st time chinese missiles had flown over tie one, girls are being conducted in 6 zones around the island, 3 of which overlap areas. the taipei claims are part of its own territorial waters . tie one says it's responded by activating its defense systems and claims. 11 of the muscles landed in waters around the island had pay was reportedly forced to

cancel at least $40.00 flights due to the chinese military. pro asian airlines are trying to avoid tie when need a space with a tie. pay has managed to remove some international flights. aging says it has a long time warned about the possible consequences of policies visit calling it a violation of chinese sovereignty. to me, when the china has made it clear many times that we are firmly opposed to policies, visit you. and we made it clear that once the visit has made, it would be a serious violation of the one china principal and a grave infringement on china's sovereignty. and territorial integrity, china will definitely take strong and resolute measures in response and all consequences shall be borne by the u. s. side. so do not say that we did not warn in advance about the implications of this incident. in response, washington has decided to re schedule its own ballistic missile test. as tensions with china surrounding the taiwan crisis continue to rise. the white house has

highlighted us policies as responsible in contrast to china's which according to the us, only worsening the crisis. as china engages in the stabilizing military exercises around taiwan, the united states is demonstrating instead the behavior over responsible nuclear power. by reducing the risks of miscalculation and this perception, we mall china has accused us of posing a threat to international peace and security, with its diverse nuclear arsenal. calling on washington to reduce us deployments and restored dialogue with beijing on arms control issues. basing made the statements and the nonproliferation of nuclear weapons review conference in new york. chinese representative slammed the us for investing trillions of dollars in the development of different types of nuclear weapons. warning that this could lower the threshold for the use of such weapons as also cues, washington of undermining the regional and global strategic balance by developing advanced with not defenses in asia and europe. as well as sharing nuclear weapons

with non nuclear states. calling on washington to stop the practice. may the united states should withdraw all its nuclear weapons from europe and refrain from deploying nuclear weapons in any other region. any attempt to replicate nato's nuclear sharing model in the asia pacific region would undermine regional strategic balance instability and would be firmly opposed by the countries in the region. and when necessary. they severe countermeasure ginger funding. the u. s. has long been trying to include facing and arms control. negotiations with many american officials came in china's nuclear build up may be destabilizing. but rick, to gala vice president of the center for china and globalization disagrees, saying us policies are the real source of instability. china and other countries need to, to, to, to make the appeal to the united states. so that the united states is not going to really want totally use the threat of nuclear. ready weapons for the rest of the

world because for the united states to constantly henry nuclear weapons, white plains fights naval ships as well as the marines. without letting the rest of the world know about bash without disclosing in a sufficient manner to those countries by which they will carry these weapons to is really an actual is a responsibility and it needs to break. in stability on the russian investor could have come if he has opened approved into thursdays, shedding of the nets by ukrainian troops. dennis a public official, say a people including a 12 year old goal, were killed and at least 5 others injured. a warning to view that you may find the following image as disturbing. according to local officials around 10 projectiles hit the near city center, damaging several buildings. and this 40 to see the moment that dumbass palace hotel

journalists were based with his an ot camera crew members believe to stuff had concussion in the incident. the strikes happened just before a committee ration service and a local theater for recently killed the next militia commander. all those present way vacuum to shelters. canadian journalist eva bartlet, who narrowly escaped the strike, spoke to us earlier. the 1st blast occurred around 10 20 am in a series of blast. within a few minutes i. when things calm down tunnel, i started going outside to document the damage. there was unfortunately one dead woman just outside the hotel. i was actually in the hotel when it started. i was working and i went and after the 1st 3 very strong explosions, i went to the hotel lobby. ah, and at the time that the assistant to the camera man was injured, that was the 5th blast, a very powerful blast right next to the hotel. i had just stepped back from the, from the lobby. so it, thankfully of, i'm sorry that he was injured,

but yeah that's, that's where i was at the time and about an hour prior. i had been working in the room that took the most damage out because that this hotel is a journalist, go to it because it's a central location and it has powerful why fi and those her tools that we need. so i'm pretty sure that ukraine knows that this is a hotel, that journalist i stay in and i don't think that this was accidental. i do believe they were attacking the funeral intentionally. this was a slain dpr kernel. people attending the funeral would have been civilians would have been normal. people not, not necessarily military, even if they were military. the fact is, this is a residential civilian airy, not military target. a time that the blasts were occurring, it was chaotic and confusing. although i have to say people here are quite resilient and they've been dealing with these kind of showings for 8 years. so for them it's nothing new for me also. it isn't anything new. but there are, there definitely was chaos because you don't know how long the blasts are going to continue. you don't know how strong they're going to be,

how much more damage if they hit the hotel once they could hit it many times more. so in that sense, there was a lot of confusion. it's now calm, but people over, of course, on edge knowing that ukraine has struck the center already a few times. not could happen at any moment. global human rights organization. amnesty international has stated ukrainian forces intentionally. you schools, hospitals, and other civilian objects, as bases for the troops to launch attacks. we have dr. mann's or to pass on off ukrainian forces. putting civilians are troops can violate the loss of war when they operate in populated areas. at $22.00 out of $29.00 schools to wizard amnesty researchers either holland soldiers using the premises or found evidence of current or prior military activity include in the past and soft military for teaks, discarded munitions, army ration packets and military vehicles. amnesty added, so crane has been endangering its own civilians,

that pacing troops and weapon systems in residential areas. branding the move, a violation of humanitarian law. they're demanding kids stop putting civilians in harm's way and evacuate them from or battle grounds. the organization blamed moscow, of course, in casualties and civilian areas, by using highly destructive weapons to target ukraine's military, as well as indiscriminate attacks. rush and foreign ministry spokesperson. maria, as that however, said that russia has been reporting on care of using civilians as human shields for quite some time. journalist an author look with it, says ukraine's military had been endangering civilians with these tactics for p. r purposes. amaskita national, which is respected everywhere, white's in the west. that is important because of it's usually very much less leaning and, and perceived as, as quite neutral. and in this doubt, really on mentioning things that are totally unacceptable. so for the governments,

it will be difficult in germany as wallace. everywhere. france, italy, in other places because there will be questions they think simply that the population that the civilian population is a protection for them. that's all they just high within the population in the cities and villages just to, to avoid the shelling of the russian artillery. that's so really not the way to, to wrong to, to behave in a conflict for an army, but of course then they can produce their press release to saying that the rashaw me aim, surprised, and killing civilians buying or selling schools and hospitals and showing photos of hospitals, forgetting that it is their troops, your gray and troops that were in the building and were show by the russian army. the common consensus among many waste and officials is that relations with russia will never be the same. a narrative supported by the media. one more time, remaining general things, it's quote wishful thinking to expect relations between russia and the west to turn

to the levels before the ukraine crisis. the same thought appeared in an article by a key official at the russian foreign ministry who claimed that decades of cooperation with the west will be problematic at times was irrevocably over. interesting compilation with russia is now growing in countries outside the western block. for example, india expects bilateral trade with russia, an sri lanka, to reach $8.00 to $9000000000.00 over the next 2 months. that's off to new delhi allowed international trade in re piece. earlier my colleague nicky, erin discussed the issue with our guests. i think as far as india is concerned, we've always had good relations with russia and now new opportunities have emerged or india to cooperate with russia. we have saturday, walking more oil from russia. we are looking at to investing more in the oil sector in russia as we western companies get out of luggage likes

a column one and all these new channels which are opening up will i think open up new possibilities or russia, india trade, economic cooperation, the director of the foreign policy planning department at the russian foreign minister, he thinks that cooperation with the west is completely and it is over and done with . can the western countries distance themselves from russia, though without any consequences for themselves and their economies? is that even possible? i guess it is possible, but in the short certainly they're going to do terrible consequences of this the winter coming and the europeans really haven't or throw the consequences of their boy costs of russian energy. they haven't figured out how they going to replace russian oil, which they're supposed to get themselves off by the end of the year. they have no

idea how they going to replace the russian gas. but the important point is that the rest of the world did not join in the sanctions against russia. most of the non western world will continue to co operate very happily with russia. how will functions against russia? renee has expansion to russia. borders affect the geopolitical situation in the near future. i think it will be negative, hold it in you, but very positive to russia because they, after that may be brought in, as i mentioned before. but just boot. nick is not going into agree to aggression in a claim because it's just, it's just saying that you're pregnant people is one of the russian people that all he has some sort of human chilion target in his special operation way. the for, he didn't like just to distract destruction coming from also the extra weapons that coming from the west of the coming from poland or via poland for med, gave from

a horse u. s. and from some other european countries, in order to extend the time of the where, which is very difficult and very bad for the york inside. as usher strengthens global relations with states outside the western block. foreign ministers of the 18 group of south east asian nations on meeting in cambodia. i stopped at the nat has underlined the importance of multilateral corporation, as well as bilateral partnership with mine. mar. so gail evolve said the ties promote global peace and stability received by deer truth was russia. suppose my miles historic choice in is committed to strengthening a comprehensive strategic dialogue as well as expanding practical cooperation in all areas. we're convinced that the entire system of our interaction objectively contributes to strengthening the regional security in architecture and sustainable development is important that we are united by a firm commitment to the formation of a more just and democratic multi polar world order. now let's in contrast to the us

dance online mall with washington considering imposing sanctions on the country. the white house, the keys as the military joint of suppressing defend. the military has been governing the states since last as crew. the plan to hold parliamentary elections. washington has also been pressurizing asian states to bring my mom to account for later human rights abuses. all countries have to continue to speak clearly about what the regime is doing, and it's ongoing repression and brutality. and i think all the outside countries need to hold the regime accountable for that to continue to demand and a media session of violence, the release of political prisoners and the restoration of from us democratic path. some experts came to us if more alarmed not by the need flaws in democratic rule, but rather by the role of my mom in key chinese projects named me by the belt and vote initiative. the concept was announced over 10 years ago and envisages economic

trade transport and other types of cooperation between more than 60 states across europe, asia and africa with china taking the lead role at say to replace, to other projects the so quote, economic belt and the 21st century maritime. so quote, it could also undermine us dominance by increasing the economic significance of other emerging power. as we spoke to political activists and journalists, wayne this year, who says my mom is still in some ways a u. s. new colony. i believe that overall is going to be realised the main obstacle from what i can tell to the building ro initiatives implementation is us meddling and us efforts to so violence, economic deprivation, chaos across the formally colonized world. and an important piece of that demonize ation is per train. what china is doing as an equivalent to what us

imperialism is doing, needs to portray china as neo colonial as exploitative as having alteri or motives for what it's doing. wherever the united states deemed it necessary to so conflict, it uses any means necessary to do so. the equivalent is happening in me and mar, which was a us neo callie, and still in many ways is us basketball star, britney reno has been sentenced to 9 years in prison in russia, after being found guilty in her drugs trial. however, negotiations have been underway behind the scenes between the us and russian officials about a potential prisoner exchange. the case of the us athlete detained on saturday, the 17th at moscow, a port ended with a strict sentence can key city court sentenced her to non years in a penal colony voted came despite

a teams by senior american officials to negotiate a prison exchange with lesson counterparts, he was president joe biden has already caught the verdict of the russian court unacceptable, and demanded her release criminal spokesmen. dmitri pet scott say that there was no specific agreement between russia and the us on a potential exchange. yet while it's cost live now to poor white founder of prison, legal news dot org website. thanks so much for joining us. do you think washington is trying to politicize the cases of britney greener and poll whelan? could the comments of the leadership on this case be interpreted as interference in the internal phase of another state? yes, i think absolutely they're, they've tried to size that i think that you know, but for you know, but for the current state of russian relations between russia and the united states, i don't think that the arrest of a private citizen on drug charges moscow airport would necessarily be rising level

accounts risen, and of course, i'll note that on a regular basis, hundreds of a 1000 people arrested an american airport on drug charges every year and the american public. here's the us officials have a piece of he stated that they intend to negotiate with russian counterparts on the exchange of american citizens. so with that being what they say, why has there been no results so far? i have no idea. i'm not, i'm not privy to the conversations between the russian, the american governments. i think some of the news reports that i've read it, it indicated that or the russian government we consider an exchange from this brian or that they wanted to have the, the proceeding concluded. and you know, basically have, are convicted and septum before being able to do to do to do what i prefer exchange or swap. so now that the currently what, what is actually going to happen historically,

prisoner exchange negotiations have always been confidential. do you have any sense of why the united states has bought this process now to the public? i you know, again without being privy to their thinking or their internal affairs. i mean, i don't know. i mean, i think some of the obvious speculation is it can be used as a distraction to the u. s. efforts to, for example, pop up satellites in the ukraine aren't necessarily going all that well. and you have someone who informed us, brian, or who is relatively well known. and she is a, she is a popular person. you can call us or give me a parent. the administration isn't something. because i think one of the really happened since the since the base of the ukraine in a lot of respects, the impact of the washington, the united states in that part of the world. i think it's karen for everyone to see

. and what was brian or detention? i think it a fault. why is it the us doing something rather than as you know, rather than continue negotiation or secret, they're basically broadcasting, hey, we're doing something. so i think that has calculation to it than anything else. would you agree that an unsuccessful outcome of the negotiations is really a verdict on american diplomacy? why have negotiations conducted by the united states increasingly seen and impasse say? well, i say, because simply put, it takes 2. it takes 2 parties, negotiating the weight of both retirement go, shooting and face. it's hard to reach agreement. and i think the other thing is it requires that both parties to be reasonable and both of the expertise. and i think that if that isn't happening, that's typically there is, there is there to go. she ation or it doesn't go well. in the case of britney green,

at what do you think all the chances of an exchange eventually taking place? again, i don't know, it depends on, i think, how, how badly the united states wants her. and also, i think, how, how amenable to negotiation both united states and the russian government are the past. the russian governments been fairly pragmatic about obtaining the need for the sort of being held by the us. but they've done that for at least the last 70 or a years going back to the starting the cold war. and i think off of the united states and the united states, you know, can, and does routinely negotiate for the release. so you know, america, whether it was with the government of iran, back in the 92 again, prisoner exchanges with the former soviet union form. so again, i think it just comes down to, you know, the circle track record is there, they're capable of doing it. the only question is they have the will be doing so

now today paul, right found a prison legal news dot org website. thanks so much for joining us. thank you very much for the of the show. the moscow has slammed poland decision to shut down the russian exhibition at the outfits book and the museum saying that another attempt to raise the memory of the sacrifice so that people made in world war 2. i'll transfer canal is a former nazi death camp in southern poland, where over a 1000000 people were killed june the wall. the red army liberated the site which became one of the main symbols of the holocaust brushes. museum with a patriotic war, used to maintain a permanent exhibition on the site, but also has not refused to extend the memorial. the russian foreign ministry spokeswoman says this is an attempt to revive the history. do you understand that the ship's birkenau museum isn't disneyland,

where you can just change signs, pain, store windows in different colors. and generally refresh the exposition from time to time, inventing new attractions and getting rid of the old ones in order to keep the public entertained. you can't change history simply because the current political conjuncture requires this of you. so again, american journalist and historian abortion mileage told us that numerous publish attempts to raise historical facts may seem backfire. this has been going on for quite some time, and i think that was official war. sure war so is using the conflict and ukraine is a convenient excuse to push forward the agenda that they've been pursuing for quite some time. now they cited this crazy excuse said, oh, you know, you didn't file the paperwork in time. it's problem is that nothing to do with co bated had nothing to do with a conference in ukraine. it's simply an ongoing effort by the polish government to basically rewrite history. outreach is a horrible place where truly horrific things happened. and to try to tell the

history of it by air brushing certain things like who liberated it from the nazis is, is wrong. when you have a country that has airbrush it's history for me, you can be and things from its history. you get a government that tends to follow and repeat the same mistakes of its predecessors, puree, see things from history. you blind yourself to lessons of it, and the, and this can only, this can only backfired as your faces. another massive heat wave spain is planning to impose new restrictions on air conditioning to save energy and then an energy crisis in the region. all t contributor rachel lost and explains how effective european measures to survive the hottest thumbnail on record radio. as western europe continues to face one of the hottest summers on record, and yet another impending heat wave, spain has now decided to impose a highly debatable air conditioning limit to save energy in their misguided efforts

to undermine russian gas sails. under madrid's newly published decree, public and commercial buildings will now be barred from setting their air conditioning lower than 27 degrees celsius in the summer, and their heating lower than 19 degrees celsius in winter. the rule is mandatory for these values, but not for households yet, except as a recommendation, european officials never seem to miss an opportunity to exert even greater control over people's daily lives. this time under the pretext of energy security, which they're selling as reduce dependence on russian gas. i'm surprisingly though, the drama has already stirred a lot of debate among the spanish right now. perhaps suggested by the heat wave we are experiencing, i would say that with $27.00 degrees we will be very hot. perhaps we could work at 25 degrees, but not at 27. generally speaking, you can work at 27 degrees, but to reach the temperature in hot areas,

you need to put the air conditioner at 22 or 23 degrees for a couple of hours. so i am worried that it will not be allowed to exceed $27.00 degrees at any time. it's regularly hitting 40 degrees celsius this summer in madrid. now imagine thinking that you could head to the local cinema, for example, to cool off watch a movie in the air conditioning. and instead you get there. and if you find it packed with people, giving off enough body heat to raise the temperature well above the government mandated, 27 degrees celsius, the measure will no doubt result in busy bodies. susan policing, every one else to ensure that they adhere to these measures much like they did during the coven, pandemic mandates and restrictions. and we've already seen the kind of societal divisions that caused in italy. a similar law mandates. the air conditioning be set no lower than 25 degrees celsius. it off was in the framework of the use mandate for member states to lower their gas used by 15 percent starting this month. meanwhile, in germany, enough citizens see the writing on the wall that they're running out and buying

electric heaters to keep themselves warm in the event that the gas taps run dry. sending sales soaring with experts now warning that it could impact the stability of the national grid. and in france, nuclear power plants have been forced to lower production levels because successive heat waves here have caused a shortage of water to cool the reactors. this puts france in even more precarious position when it was going to rely on nuclear energy ahead of the winter gas crunch . the lever, frances largest opposition party in parliament, moving the pen is sounding the alarm about a blackout. barnet, though, miguel de says europe is going to face a blackout, notably on the question of russian gas in port boy, these sanctions are simply useless. so all they do as make europeans suffer us. and that incidentally includes french people why you need a huge dose of bad faith. not to realize that on the contrary, to the inflated claims of our government, the russian economy as not on its knees,

who they are not on the brink of bankruptcy, new. but french energy transition minister, anne? yes, penny. every now she says that it's lapel is remarks that are extraordinarily dangerous and irresponsible. always playing up the security threat, bogey man, even in the face of self imposed economic strife. what happens to the end of the bulletin for this solver? if you want ponies with noise head to our website at ot heat dot com, i'll be back with recap again at the top of the next hour. but until then for me and the team here must good, thanks so much for joining us. oh, russia is the aggression. no. if injured much about it, we have any quality for russians. we have actual racism, bigotry, against russians. it's now dangerous to be russian in europe. for our pool for 44

beats, russo phobia count ignored soon as possible. if a nation suddenly be disliked full, was the hostility always there and only now come to the for the most full show, the most form for so for do is router will be a new one. hasn't been seen before. it was a form, some deity studies before door i knew that i knew was to get you started. ok. you know people not, yes was dial. it was exact or could go with his i here because that's a play team is usually when he got a home was a hotel was considered isn't nearly.
